Maybe some team was telling his camp something that didn't come to fruition... you would think being on a CFL roster and practicing week-to-week then entering back into the window would be preferable for a CIS guy rather than sitting around for a season working out by himself but who knows. Obviously baseless speculation, but something smells with Brown being shut down early in Ottawa. I wonder if they enter into a full rebuild if he could be pried out and the rights to Elgersma be the piece... would the Bombers never do that in a million years thinking they have the next Rourke? Would the Redblacks jump at the chance thinking they'd have the next Rourke?

Wonder what is going on with Elgersma https://lfpress.com/sports/local-sports/taylor-elgersma-wilfrid-laurier-must-take-fight-to-western Seems his agent is still poking around in the NFL, but the season is almost half over at this point.

If you take care of the ball at least one of those results are going to flip. There's no reason to have Prukop come in and throw into double coverage after grabbing all the momentum with that Grant punt return in 2022. There's no reason to trot Collaros out with a busted up hand to throw 4 picks in 2024. 2024 is extra frustrating because you have the chance to take the lead after Zach messes up his hand when you get the ball deep in Toronto territory and Oliveira doesn't get a touch with Wilson in. You take the field goal, its still close... defense gives up a long TD which is what ever and then its all passes the rest of the way when Collaros is in with his mangled hand. 2022/2024 was defintely on the offense/play calling... 2023 was kind of wash but you would hope the defense could put up a stop at the end there.

I think Week 9 against Toronto (3 DST TDs), Week 11 vs Ottawa (In the last minute Ottawa returned a TD off a field goal, picked off Collaros but Castillo nailed a game winner with time expried), Week 16 vs Ottawa (3 completion game) and this game were all ... fortunate wins. Losses where they were unlucky not to win,... Week 10 vs Calgary, you'd probably like a LDC/BB split, that 2 pt to Schoen would have just tied it, and the Bombers did absolutely nothing after Collaros got hurt in the Banjo Bowl, Bombers had lots of good chances late Week 19 vs the Elks as well. If all of those go your way, Bombers are sitting on 12 or 13 wins... if they all flipped the wrong way they are near the bottom of the league on 5 wins.

https://www.cfl.ca/standings-tiebreaker-rules/ The verbiage 'eliminated' makes it sound like the bottom team drops out and that seems to jive with what the analysts have been saying. So in a three way tie between us, Calgary and BC, we drop to 4th, and then it goes head to head for BC/Calgary. It seems more intuitive to say that in the 3 way tie breaker, Calgary gets 2nd because they win the 2nd tier tiebreaker, and then it resolves head to head against BC and Winnipeg but I am just a fan.

The one thing people miss is that they don't take the winner of the tiebreak scenario, they dump the loser. So because Winnipeg has the worst round-robin W% of the group they get dropped, and then the tiebreaker resolves between CGY-BC

Does that list include the win against the Argos where they got 1 offensive TD and 3 DST tds?

https://www.facebook.com/share/r/17EocBZLow/ An angle of the Sterns play that shows the Neufeld/Brooks scuffle. They didn't show a replay in the stadium and watching the reddit game thread it didn't sound like they showed it on the broadcast either I imagine Neufeld picks up another fine for that.

After this debacle let BC put Edmonton out of their misery tonight so the Bombers don't need a result next week. It's still possible to host a playoff game with the Lions winning tonight weirdly

So after the Bombers win, what is the preferred outcome of the rest of the games? BC wins and puts Edmonton out of their misery? I think in this situation if Calgary goes 0-2 the Bombers can finish 2nd. BC Loses and Calgary Wins which means the Bombers can't get second but the Elks are mathematically eliminated? BC Loses and Calgary Loses and the Bombers have a chance to either host a home playoff game or be eliminated entirely based on Week 21? The Bombers have the tie break head-to-head against both the Lions and the Elks. In a three-way tie I think they come out ahead (Winnipeg 3-1, BC 2-3, Edmonton 2-3) but any tie breaker involving Calgary I think the Bombers lose because of the 0-3 debacle.

Didn't the current Bombers just dog-walk the Tigercats to the tune of 40-3?

So what's the deal with the furor surrounding these passes? They decided to combine the concerts and the team parties and that make it harder to secure team party access? Is there less supply than there has been in other Grey Cups?

So 2 weeks to go to make the playoffs and the player with the 2nd most receiving yards on the active roster is the RB... and the player with the most is playing his first game since being murdered across the middle and missing 3 weeks. NBD

Just feed Brady the ball. He is down on touches this week. Have him touch the ball 30 times and rack up 300 yards from scrimmage

Please dress an extra WR for this game

Isn't there a direct butterfly effect surround Durant signing a contract, collecting his bonus, abruptly retiring and the Bombers signing Bighill?

I didn't get to watch most of the game did Streveler actually get reps at receiver!?? I was joking about that!

It's possible after this week, the West #1 and East #1 and #2 seeds are all locked in, which means the last two Bomber opponents might not have much to play for other than staying healthy. That and them both being home games bodes pretty well for a home playoff game if they can take care of business tomorrow.

The Craig Roh thing always seemed incredibly sad to me. It is my understanding that Colon cancer is pretty slow as far as cancers go, to go from being on a pro roster in 2021 to diagnosed with Stage IV cancer in 2022 is a pretty rough turn around. Colon cancer specifically is hard to screen for in younger people and not really on most peoples radar until 45+. I wonder if anything in a teams medical would possibly flag anything like that.

To put things in perspective, the Argos and the Riders play tomorrow night... by my count, on the Argos Active roster, they are playing only 2 players who have played a game in a season where the Bombers didn't participate in a Grey Cup (excluding this one)

If Demski is out does that mean that Streveler slots in at Receiver?

Dru Brown shut down for the season now too. Not sure why you would turn your team over from a 28 year old QB you have signed next year who doesn't appear to be injured but has struggled this year and probably needs to work through some stuff to someone who is going to be a free agent but Ottawa gonna Ottawa I guess

Argos entering hibernation mode. McManis got shut down for the season https://3downnation.com/2025/10/08/toronto-argos-shut-down-star-lb-wynton-mcmanis-with-groin-injury-report/

The reasoning for removing 10 yards from the field is dumb as well. Just come out and say the medium-term plan for the league is expanding into other markets, and the current footprint of the field is going to be an issue in moving into markets with existing infrastructure.

The difference in Completion Percentage between Bombers and the #2 Riders is 5.2 percent... the difference between the Riders and #9 Edmonton is 3.7. The Bombers have been riding that and a pretty serviceable special teams to limit TDs
