Me. Not impressed by their D at all.

Iirc that would be fumbles lost, doesnt include times he fumbled and we kept possession.

Both were guys who offered to make our active roster right away, at a time we were thing on NI talent. With no other means of getting any better NI talent at the point in time we got them, and with hope that our picks the following years would be high not low. Both of those guys would have been first round picks no doubt, they just didnt work out. Way she goes.

We took wolitarsky june 27 of 2017. Eli is a better prospect imo. Hes good certainly, but not plug n play by any means. A guy who develop and take the growing pains with for sure. But missing TC is huge.

Hes a high risk high reward type of player. He is either having a huge game between runs + catch and runs or hes dropping passes. He is a tremendous player who I think will have a break out year this year. A lot of dynamic young players go though the growing pains he is. Not knowing when to go down and when to fight for yards, ball protection, looking down field rather then securing the ball. I love the fit in our offense and the talent he has. I wonder though if we might be better served in some situations (especially with a lead wr like mathews out previously) by starting petermann who is steady and consistent and subbing in demski for package work. Allowing him to be fresher and more focused on key plays. Both guys are starter quality imo, and have sky high potential. Demski will bounce back I have no doubt.

Depth chart looks really good. Love how our offense matches up against their D. Feel like we have a decisive edge over all.

QFT

Roy shivers could atleast find good US rookie talent. Hervey is a fraction of what shivers was. He and Maas really are a match.

Couture was like 278? When we drafted him. You can get away with being smaller at center, it really depends on the build though. Gray at 6'6 308, would be of a similar build just taller. I do suspect teams would want him to bulk up eventually to the 300 range.

It still isnt where it should be especially at the highest levels of football. Pass rushing was even worse. Qb killing 101. Wrestling was bad for leading with and using the head too.

How did all these trees get on line? Just log in? We need to get to the root of this problem.

If you could put bucks heart and football IQ into bishops body... Hes trying to hit for the cycle like kevin glenn, in 1/3 the time. Hes gotta be up to half the league already.

Hand injuries are fairly common among strong arm qb's, especially ones that aren't great and don't know how to use touch and take some thing off the ball. Jamarcus russell broke more fingers with passes then picks and tds combined. (maybe the hardest tosser in history) Agree, and that explosive leg drive, hip torque is the difference imo. Same as looking at the hardest pitchers in baseball from the 70s-80s vs now.

This rider slurping over soo little is making me sick

I don't see them keeping this up

Look at our qb roster then Davis and mbt in Toronto and ssk with benette. And I wouldn't take any of them over our 3. Actually isn't Austin Apodaca still in BC too?

If you go back and watch any highlights of brocks you like, and compare with any random highlights of bishop you can handily see brock has less velocity. Brock was infinitely a better qb, but no doubt bishop had a better arm.

The strongest arm in bomber history imo. Insane. The 10 yard ish pass early one he was virtually on his knees. The real amazing thing in that highlight is the als being first in the league.

the league has put on a tactical master class in how to deal with a situation like this. I wish the PA had gone about this differently, but I get it from their perspective. Money, always taking the side of the suspended party, they are consistent at least. This puts the onus on the players and PA reps on each team to go back to the PA and push for change. Especially all those players tweeting about how cheap/dirty the shot was and how punishment / better in game over sight was needed.

🤣 Maybe... I mean the life style he lived to perform at such a high athletic level is astounding. If he would have taken his strength and conditioning as serious as Pro milt from a young age I cant even imagine the heights he would have reached.

Good thing Milt has the great TSN gig. Itd gut me to see him coaching another team. If he goes after doug brown then im a be mad too. (dont think doug gives up his current gigs though) Ok ok ok, first guy in the hole you juke then cut it up the gut. Then you explode through the second wave and stiff arm the Lber. He grabs your jersey from behind and drags you down after you gain 20 yards. As a football guy, I think blink would make a tremendous coach. Considering we had soo few position coaches back then (how many years did we go with out a qb coach?) if you watched them in camp and practice they did some pretty smart drill work that translated well to the game. As a person, yeah him in montreal would be a laugh riot. A deep sleeper pick if khari sticks to HCing is Brad Yamaoka. He coached the Kamloops broncos for a considerable while. I can personally say he was an excellent coach of players, and had to manage some awfully low talent teams. He left last year and his kids are close to done HS. Perhaps lamar mcgriggs who still has his toes in strength and condition and coaching. Marvin coleman has been coaching kids in the states, Doug hocking has done well in the BC JC coaching ranks. Matt sheridan could be the teams dietitian too!

Id say its grown. Seen a lot of development and improvement. But the core of winnipeg is still the same. It hasnt lost any thing in the past decade, only gotten better.

100%, Plus osborne village, I love the parks especially assiniboine and kildonan park, the zoo also makes the grade, I love the architecture of the exchange district, etc. Rae n jerrys is great. Im crazy about simons steaks at the forks too though. The city and province has soo many hidden gems and under appreciated areas.

This is what happens when we have a buy early in the season.

We always keep a spot on the PR open, But if Mathews is healthy for our next game and comes off the IR, some one already has to go from the IR to the pr/in active. And then some one has to go from the PR. And with Nuefeld probably(?) close to coming back we will already have to hide an OL. As it is we have 9 rostered WRs. (between active in active and injured) and 3 Canadian tail backs (1 pr). Our roster is going to get tighter, with guys getting healthy and the possibility of NFL cuts. The skill position canadians are deep and entrenched on this team. And they dont have injury concerns. As much as Id like to have him as well, I just dont see the fit. And right now in his career he needs to go some place where he will see an active roster, stay healthy and produce. Not sit on the bench or PR or IR.
