That’s 2 games in a row with the bombers getting their brown eye turned blue by ridiculous blatant non-called holding

Bighill can’t even put his arms out. Just runs into guys with his shoulder

Now Bonds hurt, lovely

I literally missed everything with a rough toddler bedtime.
Anyone got a rough recap of wtf is going on here lol? Brown hurt? Bombers have a 9(?!) point lead

Ayer’s has been very good on special teams since last game, it’s made a difference.
He’s been a force, makes you wonder if he could be a playmaker on D

Just listening with one ear bud, my child insisted on going to London Hill after the first series.
Did the punter just turn the game around? -

Prukop was hot garbage running last year. He fumbled and tossed a pick in the strevy package last year, and strevy has run for similar yards in 4 games than poopkup did in 15. Poopkups sneaks came up short a few times too.
I wish that was the only time he did that..

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.

Late TD to Romby Bryant and I believe Dinwiddie passed for about 400 yards. Fun game.
500 yards and yeah Bryant caught the ball for the winner while falling on his ass with like 2 seconds left.

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?

Not to keep Harping on Kolo, but I don’t think he wants his pro day footage out there.

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.

Don't worry guys.... THIS is the week the interior Oline starts to dominate....
Did Kolo get hurt in practice?

if we actually scheme a plan to suit Streveler as a QB with dual threat ability...and NOT try to make him a pocket passer...I think you will see a really good looking offence...even with all these subs....Now put him out with that mindset with Lawler in the mix...whatever current newbie steps up and yes Lucky....we may have something....Toss Eli in at center first to see if that fix's what ails the oline as well and move forward from there. I think even with the addition of Strev right now alone will make the oline seem more capable....
A smart thing I hope Buck has worked in is sets with Smith and BO in backfield together with Strev and some option..RPO..roll-out stuff where any one of the 3 may get the ball...
Between Brady, Demski and Smith we should have a lot of options in the backfield. I think Smith’s gonna be what we wanted Greg MacRae to be.
I’d like to see MCI in when they’re moving the FB out of the backfield. Feltmate isn’t a threat to do anything with the ball.
Hopefully we see more than Brady up the gut, strev up the gut, PA fake up the gut.
Ideally they mix that misdirection in a little more, and run the PA off that. This line isn’t good enough to drive everyone back like years past. They might have to try to fool the other team sometimes.
Get the other team thinking about it, force them to watch the flats and then let Brady do his A/B gap stuff later in the game.

We really don’t stack up here in a lot of areas. Ottawas tackles vs our ends is the only positional matchup I like.
I’m struggling to see a win.
Ottawa uses 3 DAs, must be nice..

ZC won’t even dress, so we’ll get to see what Strev can do. Any ideas what the plan for a third QB is?

Bomber bias aside it was a clean hit. Pretty much text book. Would I like to see a flag on a play where my QB is injured? Probably. But I can’t justify it as a dirty play.
I didn’t have a problem with where his helmet was so much but the defender drove through and the ball was out. I wouldn’t exactly call it dirty but that’s by the book RTP.

actually...I can factually tell the opposite..Winnipeg is an easy sell for many many Americans. That isnt a detriment whatsoever. Tho I can say of recent, I think some players who are looking to make the next step....and by that I mean in the CFL will/are avoiding here as they see that there is not a real legit opp here in some areas...and we have had talent walk away as well due to this..Brown..Bolo...most recently and if Eli wasn't signed thrue 2025 you can bet he would be eploring elsewhere next yr as well...Likely some Dline guys too will be.
Really? That’s awsome, I know that wasn’t always the case.
