  1. The difference in the D from last year to this year was easy to see.I feel there is a lot of improvement. Not one time was there a wide open Edm receiver that caught a ball for an easy TD. Yes they gave up 400yrds passing but one was a 100yrd strike where Randle missed the knock down, another was a PI call on Gaitor and another was a pass to Stafford (I believe) who had a step on our DB (one of Fogg or Alexander) and beat the DB with a jumping catch. That was probably 200 of the 400 yrds right there. All were situations where the DB and receiver were in a 1 on 1 battle and lost. I'm not saying they played bad, I am saying there were in the right place but simply missed knocking the ball down or lightly touched the receiver and took the PI. Yes it was a loss but there is a lot of good to build from in that game. Confidence will grow, and everyone will tighten up their game a bit and one of any of those plays mentioned could have got the Blue the W. My 2 cents.
  2. Why is Matt listed as the QB starter? Is this normal when a player is on the 6 game?
  3. Or maybe our starting QB is staying home this week...... I sure hope anyway!
  4. This poll is great IMHO. The Bombers seem to perform their best when they have something to prove. A chip on the shoulder goes a long way in sports. This is certainly fuel for this group of players and I hope each and every one of them had a chance to see what the media thinks of them. Look at how fired up we are lol!
  5. I don't like Burris on the panel. I really wish it was someone else....anyone else. But than again I don't like Don Cherry on CBC/Rogers HNC or Jay and Dan on TSN either and a lot of people do so who am I to judge.
  6. Opposing offences will have a Bighill to climb against the Bombers defense now!
  7. Now that Darian has retired a Blue Bomber I feel like we need to honor Darian on the ring at IGF..... The ring of every toilet seat in the place so we can all sh** on him like the rotten piece of sh** he is. I also think Darian should take his daughter on trip to Montreal to meet Drew Willy, the guy that beat him out for the starting QB position last season. Then she can learn what a giant piece of sh** QB he really was. He is such a clown.
  8. Yep. Bent over to pick up a puck and got a concussion.
  9. I'm not sure if this was posted or not (didn't see it) but it looks like Henoc signed for $185,000 including bonuses. http://3downnation.com/2018/04/12/henoc-muamba-believes-the-future-is-bright-for-the-alouettes/
  10. Does anyone know the rumored dollars yet? Not that it matters really but I am interested.
  11. I believe that Edmonton has lost a lot and a big one is Zlystra. They had a tough go last season until they finally got a grip but with their biggest offensive receiving threat gone, I am not confident they will bust out of their losing streak this season. Unfortunately the Criders were competitive last season and I think they have made some moves to be better as much as I hate to admit it. So in my opinion, the Esuckmos got worse and the Criders got better. But the Bombers also got better too. I don't even think it's close. I think the Bombers are going to be the best team in the league this season as long as Neufeld or his replacement can hold up their end of the game. That is my only worry.
  12. The West is going to be pretty good I guess if the Bombers finish with a 13-14 win season and Rod "Munch" Peterson and cRider Nation predicting the Bombers finish 5th in the West? I just can't understand how they think the Bombers are going to finish 5th. I predict it will be BC in 5th followed by Edmonton 4th, Saskabush 3rd, Calgary 2nd, Blue and Gold 1st.
  13. I heard that Dunk reported that Henoc is all but signed in Mtl. I heard that it was simply money related? I can't seem to find anything on this so called report though or any tweets about it. Has anyone heard anything or seen anything on this?
  14. Missing Leggett really hurt the game. A lot of missed tackles and yards given up in the areas that he patrolled. If that defense was much tighter, this game is out of reach for the Argos and the missed FG could have been absorbed. Although the missed field goals are not acceptable in my opinion. I know they will happen but they are happening too much lately. We pay big dollars to have a guy that can make field goals when the game is on the line and Saturday, he just didn't do his job. I am not mad or upset... I am just simply disappointed.
  15. I am not so worried about being able to catch the ball when it comes to them, I am concerned on them running their routes and giving Nichols some pass options in time before he gets hit. I expect their will be more focus from BC defenders on guys like Adams, Denny and Harris which will leave some opportunity for the other guys...... if they can run their routes and get open. And that is the worry I have. Sure hope that JFG, Coates, and Langford can step up because I see them as the guys that will have less defensive coverage on them. I believe their performance will be key.
  16. Looking weak in the receiving department. If Nichols is going to get injured, this is the week. With these receivers I feel like he may need to hold on to the ball longer which gives BC defenders time to get to him.
  17. I emailed the the Bomber for Life address and asked some questions. That is how I was registered for the sideline experience and how I got more info on the other stuff like the shirt, Locker Room Talk etc. The shirt pick up will be in late Oct at the Bomber Store. An email will be sent out when it is ready. Another email will be sent in the off season with when the locker room talk will happen.
  18. Has anyone done the Nissan Pre-game Sideline Experience and what does this consist of?
  19. Good run game by the Blue with average passing. 4 TDs (one from defense), 3 FGs and one Rouge . Red Blacks will be zzzzzzzz.... sawing logs tonight. They will get down field though with Lindley pushing one major in. The rest will be a few FGs with our defense holding them up in the Red Zone. 38-16 Bombers is my prediction. (I have known to be wrong once or twice lol)
  20. Classic Pace Setter jacket! Nice! That Jacket would sell if they brought it back!
