    I'd like to see Mitchell at receiver before Lawler is back.  See if they use him at all tonight.

    If everyone stays healthy with Lawler back you probably can drop both those guys.  Josh Johnson sticks around, Clercius basically becomes Wolitarsky and Wolitarsky becomes Schoen.  I can't believe Wilson is still dressing.

    Think sooner than later we go 3 American OL, as in, I would have made this change already.

    Agree with all of this. Wilson’s had ample time to show he can do more than absolutely nothing. 
    I feel about the same of Mitchell as a player to how you do of Wilson I think, but Mitchell had less time at WR, so if they’re going to give one of them another shot I guess.. 

    I think they should have gone 3 American OL after the first Ottawa game.

    Yeah.....we didn't want him back so he could glide by people for us.....That is a huge ? that this club has to ponder and just a bull$hit move that's just part of this whole crappy season so far....Bailey looked good as well ...you know the guy we couldn't afford while we keep guys like Thomas on the roster.....more bullShit

    Grant- agree 100%. Unless he straight up wanted out, I have no idea how they couldn’t have worked something out. 
     

    Bailey- In hindsight yes, at the time it seemed like the right call just because of how much of the SMS was tied up in receivers. 
     

    I’d be curious to know what it would have taken to keep Bailey/Grant vs what they’re paying BA and Thomas.

    Yep. Dinwiddie threw for 450 yards and a TD to Romby Bryant. Unfortunately that was probably the highlight of the 2008 season. It eventually led to the firing of Taman and Doug Berry and the hiring of Mike Kelly... Be careful what you wish for...

    I’d still say those guys needed to go, they just got the replacement hire way wrong.

    I agree with all of this... except BA needs to be out of the lineup, now... he made the team this year based on the 2021 version of himself... and despite not being anywhere near that anymore... he still continues to start

    That’s maddening too as it’s such an easy fix. Move Holm to safety where he belongs and use Bridges or Griffen in the HB spot. 

    I’ve never seen a team so obsessed with pigeonholing guys into the wrong position or role. 

    Remember when it took 2 years to get pre-injury BA into the FS spot and they pissed around with him on the corner?

    The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have started 0-4 after a Grey Cup appearance last season. The veterans they relied on in the past have begun to show their age. They are hoping for a spark from their backup QB at home to carry them to their first victory of the season. The year is 2008 and Ryan Dinwiddie is starting.

    It didn’t lead to anything else, but that was an extremely fun game to be at. We hadn’t beat the Stamps without a backup QB playing for them in like 500 games at that point.

    I was feeling hopeful earlier in the week... After a week of people down and complaining on this board I have lost hope once again, and am fully expecting yet another loss.

    I'll do my best to enjoy the pre game on the radio with some drinks in the sun and just hope we don't fully embarrass ourselves in front of a home crowd.

    The only person I have full faith in is Wade Miller. He doesn't want this to be his legacy, and I believe he'll fix this eventually...

    Honestly, I was hopeful until I saw both depth charts. 
    We just don’t have the playmakers right now to win a close game. 
     

    I’m not saying there’s zero chance, but a lot of Bombers will have to have career games every week to get wins right now, whereas most teams can beat us with an average one from most of their guys. 
     

    I have faith in Wade, to a lesser extent Walters too, but moreso in the off-season and heading into next year.
    Fwiw, last time they had a bad season with this group, they ditched a lot of guys and went hog wild in FA, and that was after a year where MOS did a lot of the same crap we’re upset about now.  
    I’m thinking more and more this may be a lost year and the best course is to rebuild/buy the team in the off-season to win the home GC, without MOS if necessary. Honestly, I’d be pretty ok with that.
