Bombers excel at returning the ball..an the resident green troll doesn't like it.... go figure
Grow up. If that return happened against you guys last night you would be losing it. This cannot continue, it is making the league look really bad. This league has struggled to shake the bush league appearance ever since I have watched it. A team lost a grey cup a couple years ago on a illegal block call. Now we just aren't going to call it at all?? Just let it be a freeforall out there. That head shot on Adams last week against Ottawa is another one, this crap needs to end

All year the returns have been getting a free ride. Coaches are going to have to start throwing challenge flags on punt returns. Scoring plays are reviewed so how are they missing this crap. Obviously the word came down that they want more scoring

Best game of the week.
Better than a cancelled game. Gutsy call there

IMO, this current lack of diversity in the Bomber offence will come back to haunt them when Harris gets injured, as someone who handles the ball so much inevitably will.
Good first post. I won't comment too much as I don't want to derail the thread. I would be very concerned about how much of the offense is directly associated with Andrew Harris if I was a Bomber fan. I really like him, he is a warrior and a leader. Its AJ or the fly sweep

"No Lead Is Safe" (....except if there's a bit of lightning...)
I remember us missing the playoffs for about 55 years in a row. Couple extra ok maybe 10 whiskey's of Gimli origin, and we grabbed a rain coat and went to the game. Now the fans are going to say maybe we should stay home, it might rain and they will cancel the game.

Ironic, after all that "the Bombers are lucky" talk.
Kind of took all the fun right out of that didn't it

Really? Because in the thread on Rider Fans there is post after post of people who are feeling pretty good about it. Some even delusionally believe the Riders have been so hard done by in the past they were somehow owed this. It's actually pretty pathetic.
Ok so some people are ok with it and the entire fan base is delusional???? What is pathetic is posts like yours, you make the entire fan base of the Bombers look bad. Do you speak for all Bomber fans??

should have been ruled out a draw
Can't do that. Add the time etc. on to the next game when we play them. OR just wait and heaven forbid TSN doesn't have it on tv, which is likely the real issue. I sat and drank beer for a long time in Regina while we had a delay this year, no one called that game
-
Do you guys want this win? For the rest of the season there is a asterisk on our record, its ruined. What if it comes down to the wire for 1st or 2nd or 3rd place or whatever. How can I enjoy our 4th win in row. its tainted. Ambrosie needs to go, and soon. I'm pissed off

what a crock of ****. Every team should get to count a 3 quarter game. we are now 7-1.
Not going to get into this too much right now. BUT no one here is happy about this, I want to play the game. If we lose we lose. This is bullshit. This league is going to **** in a hurry. How am I supposed to enjoy this as a fan. We won, kinda….. #nothappy

Okay.... for starters, at most during the regular season you get 2 home games against a divisional opponent, so that's just not possible, but since you asked, here's the game dates and attendance:
2017
Friday, July 7 (CAL) - 30,165
Thursday, August 17 (EDM) - 30,554
Saturday, September 9 (SSK) - 33,1342018
Saturday, September 8 (SSK) - 33,134Its a big rivalry game. We do well also when Bombers are here. Very concerning we didn't sell out against Stamps. That's a game that usually sells out

Blue Bombers are allowing 42.7 rushing yards per game against. The Riders are giving up 95.5 rushing yards per game. Heck, we've given up 128 in 3 games, the Riders gave up 129 last night. Riders have more sacks but I'd love to see the stats involving pressures. Oh and we just gave up 24 rushing yards and 7 offensive points to Ottawa, a team the Riders surrendered 93 rushing yards to and 44 points.
You are correct. But it isn't because the front four is making plays against the run. The 6 guys on your depth chart at front four positions has combined for 19 tackles. our same 6 players have 42 tackles.

Even without Biggy the Redblacks managed 24 yards rushing.
They only handed the ball off 7 times. As I said earlier a mistake on their part to not try it more

Jeffcoat was number 3 in QB hurries before last game btw..and that was bnb only in 2 games...if your gonna throw around stats at least know them
Yes he was, I knew that and should have mentioned that

And yet teams cant run against our dline...havnt lost...and gave up 1 touchdown all year
Let's revisit Hughes in about game 11 when he dissapear a for 3rd yr in row
Bighill is the guy that makes it happen. He is the best in the league and makes a huge difference in there. That's where we struggle and you don't, that's the difference. Moncrief is a beast, is probably is the best SAM in the league. But our other 2 linebackers need to be better. Bighill is the reason you are tough against the run. And yes I know he didn't play last week but Ottawa never tried to run the ball either, big coaching mistake IMHO. I would have been looking to expose the loss of Biggie in the middle a little more

This is just straight up false. We broke 29,000 3x in 2017, and once in 2018. Don't spout lies.
How many were against us? Probably 3

You certainly have a lot of excuses for your team.
WJ is making way less and doing way more. Your Dline is trash.
Posts like this make you sound like you don't know anything about football. Jefferson has 2 tackles and one sack, ditto for Jeffcoat. Hughes has 12 tackles and 5 sacks and leads the league in qb pressure and sacks. Willies half price replacement has 11 tackles and 4 sacks. Pretty obvious who was opening things up for Jefferson last year isn't it? Micah has no sacks and has second most qb pressures in the league. Only Hamilton has more sacks than us with 14, we have 12. You have 4, only Toronto and Montreal have less than you with 2 each. So other than blind hatred, your argument about our line being trash doesn't really stand up does it?.

Well at least u have the common sense to see that..and what an error that was right from get go
They tried for Reilly and Mitchelll, but neither had any intentions of coming here in the first place. Bombers should thank us though for one thing, we drove the price up that BC had to pay and the results are showing on the field. No one else any good was available. We should have just went with the rookies right out of camp, we would be further ahead, but whatever. Doesn't matter now

Anyways guys. Every time I post the thread apparently gets derailed into a Nichols debate. So no more discussion about him by me so I won't be seen as trolling about it. I won't be responding to any posts regarding the subject.

That's good. Because you have no other option but to stick with Fajardo. Which makes the rest of the league very happy.
We don't have any choice. True story. High debateable and risky decision to start the year with Collaros. Now it is what it is

Micah Johnson makes twice as much and done nothing.
People are wondering about Micah. He has the second most qb hurries in league behind Hughes, but no sacks. How much is Willie making?

Doesnt make 500k but whatever.. also .700 winning percentage works for me..as it not only all on him but a TEAM game for wins..something the riders lack...TEAM
He is winning. No one is arguing that. He willed be judged with more scrutiny as a veteran though, would you not agree? How much patience does Reilly get in BC if they keep losing?

I don’t necessarily blame O’Day. Name recognition is a huge part of player evaluation in the CFL. Walters has been guilty of it himself with guys like Romby Bryant. The Elimimian signing is eerily reminiscent of the Korey Banks signing years ago. Luckily, O’Shea realized he was done after TC and booted the bum.
A possibility is he just wasn't ready to be out there yet? Likely should have waited 2 more weeks and let him play against Lions. Point is he has been here sucking a paycheck all year from us. The signing looks bad
