I don't know how they are going to manage the roster this week. Especially if they want to get Woods and Bryant on. I think they're going to have to pull at least one of Ayers or J. Jones, and pull Randolph/Lofton out of the lineup. I guess: OFF: Artopoeus, Cooley, Lawson, Parker, Randolph, Ayers ON: Collaros, Mitchell, Woods, Bryant, Lawson Jr., Peterson They could also bring on Bailey or Schmekel instead of Peterson but then they are going without a backup RB.

If they popped on Bailey, global DE, straight across for Lawson. Use him in that Cheetah front with all the ends on 2nd and long, maybe 15 snaps a game, put Woods on for the most surplus of the American LB's...keeping in mind majority of D snaps we have 1 of them on the field...maybe see 2 more this week vs Calgary over Toronto who doesn't try to run at all. Jefferson, Vaughters, Person, Bailey (counts as a Canadian effectively), Woods, Adams, Thomas, Kornelson. Solid group of 8. Bailey and Person for sure can cover kicks. Likely keeping 3 Canadian OL starting with Vanterpool out. 3 OL, 2 receivers, 1 running back, 1 Canadian/Global on the field every snap on D. So between Kramdi and Kelly you've basically satisfied that. Any reps Canadian DL or LB get is extra. And lots of coverage for that Canadian spot if something funny happens.

Yup, exactly what I thought when I read Lawson was out again. And we know there is ZERO chance they trim Jake’s snaps for an import. Ugh.

Really shitty to see Lawson out. Even more reps for Jake is bad news all around. Unless they have enough sense to just insert Woods for Lawson and rotate him in there, and either play less NIs or start a Canadian somewhere else...

It is ALWAYS this... Players or coaches....

Rest of the practice week: Tuesday, August 5 Practice: 11:30 a.m. - 1:10 p.m. Wednesday, August 6 Closed practice Thursday, August 7 Off day – no availability Friday, August 8 Travel to Calgary

Considering the complete lack of traction the O had that game you take the guaranteed points all the time. One on one is totally different if you got a 6'2 receiver on a 5' 8 db as well but when it's the other way around... just dumb.

At this point, unless some thing drastic happens I expect ssk to hand us our asses. Unfortunately, we are no longer the standard bearers for success either in the league or west.

A well rounded argument and I do agree with most of your points. However let's see what things look like say end of September after our back to back with the Riders. IMHO I do not believe the Bombers will be much better then they are today so time will tell.

I hope OSH is just protecting his OC - if he agree's with that statement - he needs to give his head a shake - always make it a two score game with 3 minutes left... we got lucky, and the D bailed them out.

I'm sure this quote will be used against us again later in the season. While I don't mind "going for it", I'm a bit hesitant when for the most part the lead was gained by special teams/defense and where up until that point they had very little success in the pass game.

We = Hogan & MOS. Mike O’Shea liked the decision to throw it deep, saying he wanted to take a two-touchdown lead. “I like the call,” said O’Shea. “We’re putting a nail in the coffin.”

Our Canadian receivers are not the best in the CFL except for Demski. So I'm not a fan of that choice starting 3 Canadians. We didn't keep any of all the import rookies we looked at in tryout camps or TC. So that was an absolute failure. Sterns is not horrible for a 3rd or 4th guy but he's not going to scare defences. Obviously losing Schoen didn't help but our choices are extremely limited with only Mitchell and new guy on the PR. The only advantage with 3 Canadian receivers if we use the extra import elsewhere effectively. What did we decide? Adding Cooley while bumping Peterson as the back up RB. That made zero sense and I expect it to change this week with some players coming off of IR. Of the choices we have, I'm not sure which they will choose.

We? What does he mean by WE? HE thought it was the right call.

It happened at Home against CGY too. Inside the ten (I believe, at the very least it was in the redzone), instead of giving it to Brady, they put it in the hands of Strev who then misplaces a ball that is picked off and the game was essentially over. So there was already a reason to maybe not do that (let Strev throw in that situation) and he did it anyway and almost gave the game away. Sure, Streveler underthrew it. But acting like it was a needed "kill shot" is just odd. Hogan, we can do simple math. This isn't SSK.

DT did an amazing job of holding Hogan’s feet to the fire. The play-call was absolutely indefensible. And Hogan’s defensiveness and arrogance in the interview was almost worse. A couple weeks back, he also lauded his offence’s ability to get 400+ yards, even though they lost by 21 points and most of the yards were in garbage-time. To be young and inexperienced is understandable. To be defensive, rigid, and arrogant is not. I am officially concerned.

Lapo’s main flaw is he would have played for the FG there with 10 minutes left in the game to go up 9 and then lose by 2-3 after getting outscored by 11 points the rest of the game.

Run, run, field goal....period Snap at 1 second each... Clock and score awareness...

Unless you're like me and always right

Thinking that your decisions are always right and being inflexible is a huge red flag. Everybody should reflect and adapt.
