  1. How long has Davis been a Bomber? Two or three seasons? If he isn't the go to guy at this point will he ever be?
  2. Taman did "okay" with finding Import talent. Where he was an absolute nightmare was with nationals and the SMS.
  3. Agreed on the Ekakitie. It takes time for young players to develop at times.
  4. There is absolutely nothing wrong with picking up a veteran free-agent to help out when injuries strike. However, Greg Carr? There are way better guys available.
  5. With little to no consequences he has few reasons to change. Penalties need to be more severe for the good of the players.
  6. Jonestown is not going to want to lose to the Schmoes.
  7. Multiple teams have suffered more injuries then the Bombers the problem is timing. Most teams are starting to get players back while the Bombers are going through what everyone else dealt with earlier. Anyway, there is no excuse for the terrible backup quarterbacks.
  8. It's going to be interesting if the Bombers lose to Calgary. Calgary at home coming off of two losses can't be a pleasant experience. I think the Riders will beat Edmonton but I don't believe Jonestown will show too much and may be resting a few guys.
  9. Somebody gets it. When the sun was shining and the Bombers were healthy, look out. In any professional league depth is what makes a strong team and most seasons injuries will hit at some point. All western teams have had big time injuries so a strong management team needs to go beyond planb or c and into d or e some years
  10. Man those are two horrible backup quarterbacks. The young guy in Montreal looks better and he is a raw rookie.
  11. The East is rather pathetic but they have done well enough in Grey Cups.
  12. Doubtful, but they will, and should, be on a much shorter leash. There is little doubt that the Bombers are a solid team offensively when they have all their key players healthy. However they seem like they are lacking depth and even at the best of times the defence is awful. The good news? Hall's defence is often much stronger in the playoffs.
  13. Well, the Riders aren't even two years into a complete rebuild so making the playoffs is already a win. The expectations for the current Bomber regime are much higher.
  14. Chris Jones (the returner) for the Riders and Gable for the Esks are two off the top of my head. Personally I think that management should constantly be trying to upgrade talent regardless of the time of the year.
  15. Nope. As far as I'm concerned the Riders are playing with House Money at this point. The Bombers on the other hand...
  16. If the Bombers lose to the Lions at Investor's it's panic time. I really can't see it happening.
  17. If the Bombers aren't playing in the Grey Cup game his season I suspect somebody will have to fall on their sword.
  18. He's popular with many of his teammates. Witness the reaction after he scored his pick six. There are a lot of guys that love him.
  19. With his talent some may take a chance. Can't give him much upfront money but the guy has ridiculous talent. Anyway, the Thorpe signing is a good signing for the Riders looking ahead to next season.
  20. If he's in the CFL I think he'll be with the Riders. One thing I know for sure Jones won't pay Bowman money for him.
