    Every is talking about what a great punter Menard-Briere was, but was anyone else concerned about the number of long punt returns against when he was punting? I wonder if directionally he wasn't that strong. Just speculating.

    it seemed like he took a long time to get the ball off and was coming close to getting blocked alot from what I saw

    The West continuously getting the crap kicked out of it by the ''weak east'' in the Grey Cup really takes away from the argument of making the radical change of changing the playoff seeding .

    Well the 5th best team got an easier path to the Grey Cup over more deserving teams so the format is still flawed. Also, wouldn't say they got the crap kicked out of them after leading the majority of the game until late.

    Felix Menard-Briere didn't attempt a single field goal this season for the Carabins, he was just their punter.

    FG kicking was the area of his game he needed work on, thought him going back to school would let him work it out. thats disappointing to hear.

    I believe he won special teams player of year again out that way...almost certain I heard that

    this could be what you're referring to: https://carabins.umontreal.ca/football/felix-menard-briere-sacre-meilleur-joueur-des-unites-speciales/

    He'd be hardly too raw to be a rush end guy...thats nonesense.  He's maybe 260 now and that is hardly too big to be an end, as he is a  mid 4.7 forty guy.

    Don't be fooled by posted weights and stats as most DE's here are ranging from 240 to 265 pounds...theres a few lighter guys but not that many...

    Also if we are back with HALL and this apparent scheme Mulumba would be head and shoulders above what Hurl or anyone else gave us in that position.

    He's bigger, yet faster, has better explosion, a better blitzer and can get off blocks to make a tackle...so him in the middle isn't such a longshot or bad idea...also...have you ever heard of a player dropping weight or adding weight to adapt to a position?..happens all the time and if he dropped weight,,,he becomes faster too and he already can run a 4.7 forty at that weight...which matches many a MLB speed in the CFL...Many of the big hitters are in the high 4.6 to high 4.7's..

    Can you be our next DC please?

    Injuries suck but all teams have to deal with them.  Depth is key a d you to look no further then the Eskimos to see the difference in depth between the Bombers and their opponents.

    Not that I disagree with you, but when Edmonton had all their injuries mounting up they went on a big losing streak. Got some key players back and they ended the year on a winning streak.
