I am thinking that if we do get a fully healthy Schoen and O. Wilson back that could be real game changers too.

MIlls

got his bell rung...hurt his ankle...we need to bring the heat, and he will be done like dinner

I just think it’s no surprise really that the team with the healthy QB is leading the league and I think it’s just a matter of time before 40 year old Harris is carted off the field. I honestly thought he was injured against Calgary. They pulled him but he was definitely hurt and might still be. Hell does he even play this week.

Will always remember how obnoxious the rider fans were in calgary in 2009 the day of the grey cup. That penalty on the field goal... was just amazing to see and feel them all get kicked in the nuts at the same time.

yup...agree...and for all the criticism I give Osh I'd take him all day every day over Mace....guy not good HC...Not currently anyway

yup....Cumulative effects may get him when they need him most....But then again...It's Harris and when teams needed him most before...he never showed up...ever We need to right out of gate bring the pressure...and knock him around early and often...and he will wilt like the guy we all know he is Dress Woods and Bailey and just go to town with solid rotation of our best actually for doing less...to the point of basically nothing other than grabbin his face mask and whincing

The spotters have pulled collaros for doing similar.

Riders got exposed by Calgary. Hopefully bombers take that template and expose them also. Riders tend to start off strong but the old saying the season begins Labour Day , well they historically tend to suck after. Don’t see why things would be different this year.

That's what I was refering to. Seemed to be something that should be checked out. Then again, didn't something similar happen this year and he played in the next game?

**** it, win back to back against the riders.

Agree....and do we catch lightening in bottle again and take all 3?....possible...I like how ZC played and what they did with him.....the lack of a legit WR who he would continually risk poor throws to has made him be more cerebral and surgical....may be to our benefit now BO seems healthy To me we have talent inhouse here already...tho a small few lil tweeks/adds would do us wonders, it's in my opinion a matter in how we are coached and prepared and utilize what we have to the best ability....thats where I have some doubts as we suffer badly in that regard...but there been some signs of adaptation...so....

acted like he was knocked out with the bizzare body movement stuff he was doing when he got up

So Harris, did he get concussed last game? Took some good shots and its seemed like he did.

I think 2-1 in the next 3 is very realistic. I don't think that either Saskatchewan or Hamilton are teams we cannot beat. We will have to bring our A game though.

I can see a sweep by us possible...dont think Ssk is as good as what is being said, and they got physically wooped last week, so will be feeling it A split is historically reasonable, and possibly the likely result, but also being swept and looking somewhat bad and weak in both is highly likely and I say that as have zero faith in our coaching at moment and how we go about things. The saving grace tho I think is that Mace to me is somewhat a doofus, and luckily a worse coach than Osh...and that team is still undisciplined and for most part believe their hype and act like assbags on the field We have the pieces here, and solid vet leadership but we need to figure out how to use the pieces....funny gut feeling but truly think warts and all...we take both

He is not eligible for the NFL International Player Pathway. Must be outside US/Canada passport. Doesn't matter where you played college, just passport designation.

Hamilton might not be better than .500 when we play them. Their splits at home and vs the west are bad as well. Bc was above .500 when we beat them as well. I actually think Hamilton is the most likely to win for us. They are 2-2 at home and 2-4 vs the West. While we are 2-3 on the road, we are also just 3-3 vs the West. With all that said, though, since the schedule is so poorly balanced, it is really hard to place value on the strength of schedule and record vs X situation. So damn many home and away series, season series wrapped up in 1/3 of the year, 2 away games in 5 days, type of situations. I think the road to us winning 2 of 3 would likely start with a blowout in the LDC. If we get slapped and SSK hangs a big number, they might have a considerable hangover in the BJB and struggle on O, giving us a chance to finally answer back for being punched in the mouth. Then, if we roll that into some momentum in Hamilton, we could thread the needle and turn lemons into lemonade. I think that would likely require some tough changes after the LDC, though. I think the likely case is that we get swept, and that's the wake-up call to bring some urgency to Hamilton. Our "one week at a time" thing went from playing each game like the play offs to preping for each game like its week 1. And the previous games review went from not getting too big a head from winning most weeks to writting off loses cus hey it's a new week and we just go 1-0!

He'll be at the rum hut, in a bomber jersey. Should be easy to spot Call me crazy, but I agree with you on this part. Riders outside of 1 drive, didn't look all that great on Saturday against the stamps. But I suppose that happens when you have a dline that creates pressure. Huge 2 games for the blue.

Taking Brady for now but reserve the right to change my mind....

I just hope we don't get embarrassed by the Riders. If we lose, we lose, just don't be by 50 points.

I agree that 1-2 is most likely. That would make us 1-5 against +.500 teams & those are the teams we will meet in the playoffs. Yes... I said playoffs. IMO we get third if BC doesn't learn to play D and the cross over if they do.

I think Elgersma also gets helped a bit by the International Player Pathway... because he is a Canadian out of USports I think that the Packers can get an exemption to keep him on the PR where he doesn't take up a Practice Roster slot.

Clifford is also on his 3rd year with the Packers but hasn't really progressed. He's gone from second string to PR to being outplayed by a raw rookie so yeah I wouldn't be surprised if they try to develop Elgersma either.
