    yeah but he wouldn't have been hurt because he'd have been playing behind our O-line, not Hamilton's, so he would have had much better protecti....oh never mind.

    Lyle Bauer wanted to do a solid for his buddy Mike Kelly who was sure to send the Bombers on to glory... except it dug a hole so deep we're still trying to get out of it.

    Smith was dinged up last year pretty much the whole season with one thing or another. I know you guys likely disregard my opinion as sour grapes but durability may be a issue going forward. Second season in the league and has been hurt a lot.

    My posts are honest based on my opinion. I couldn't think of a single reason why we would want to sign him. And still can't. Don't like the move. But guess its always easier to sit back and laugh at other peoples posts as opposed to having your own opinion.

    I think that you're safe with Brink but maybe Elliott...

    It was all in the timing. It really isn't your fault.
    Had I known you'd be so touchy on a somewhat innocent posting, I would have posted it anyway. ?

    Based on some events earlier today, I am definitely not going to comment on Demarco or Brink for utter fear we may sign them. That is all.

    Illegal contact is another bad one. In slow motion it always looks like the guy held the receiver forever when in real time it was a fraction of a second. Passing numbers are so high because the of the BS calls on the other side of the field that had nothing to do with the play also. Combined with these review's, its no wonder no one runs the ball anymore.

    I'm 100% in favour of your second point. Plays should only be overturned if the missed call was blatantly obvious.  Spending five minutes watching slow motion replays is nonsense.

    Burris keeps himself in amazing shape and has never had a serious injury. He wants to be the man and wants his money. He has no job to come back to now in Ottawa. He will play anywhere IMO. I wouldn't doubt if he plays next year too in the league. Is Burris the answer, I don't think so. Would he come to the Peg, absolutely he would, but Willy would have to be gone.

    If we are going to play pretend why don't we also pretend that the defense didn't give up that touchdown at the end of the first half. hell even if they'd kept it to a field goal all of a sudden the Bombers could be leading or tied at the end. There are a million what ifs over the course of a football game. Trying to pick out one or two is just a fools errand.

    Getting the ball with 1:29 on the clock with 100 yards to go for the winning td isn't exactly a gimme for any qb.

    If you look closely at the throws to Bowman, not all of them are perfect. Bowman just uses his size to get the ball. The one into double coverage comes to mind. Macho just looked lost on play and basically stands there and watches him catch the ball. There is a reason why Dressler is at slot and not WR. He isn't a burner and isn't tall. On the underneath stuff 20 yards and less Dressler is as good as anyone. Fearless with great hands. On the long ones he just has to be wide open to get it. Its too easy to shut him down on a contested ball. I question that play call in the first place. Secondly its easy for people to say Willy should have done this or that, But reality is that its pretty friggin hard to throw a ball that deep on a rope. You play percentages, guys like Bowman or Chiles or Arceneaux that have some size do not require the ball perfectly thrown and they don't have to be wide open to catch it. Does Willy actually have to throw the ball perfectly every time they go deep for someone to catch it?? Be nice to see some receivers make a friggin play and help him out. Went to Adams early a bit and then it seemed he was out of the playbook after that. Adams has been awful good this year, WTF wasn't he getting more looks?  3 weeks ago you were having success with Harris and went away from him. IF its working you have to stick with it. I see a lot of this landing on Lapo's plate. Play calling has been super conservative for Bombers this year.

    Outside of Chungh (sp), who was bad, the oline gave Willy time enough to do something tonight. Macho was brutal. Leggett was good

    The oline excuse is getting tiresome. Willy had time to throw on lots of plays but couldn't execute
