Quarterbacks are the single most impactful position in the cfl... you upgrade your qb your team is instantly better. You don't have a good qb even the beat roster will look like ****. So yeah Dru Brown would improve a lot of CFL teams right now.

Brown us OK, I'll stick with my Kevin Glenn comparison. Really wasn't impressed with the game plan they gave him and after being stymied a it you could see the confidence wasn't there. Like a lot of young qbs he has ups and downs and momentum is a big part of it. Lawler was able to get a toe down in the endzone I bet the game goes entirely different for him.

Brown looked a bit overwhelmed at times when things got bogged down... really should have just went full on run heavy and buried the stamps on the ground. They could have done it because calgary isn't good enough to stop it.

Awww that's every thread

Couple of his punts late were just God awful decisions. Kick it proper and get some depth on it.

Oliveira crippled Cam "the honourable" Judge today. Should have been used way more because calgary wasn't stopping the run game.

Special teams were ****, the offense was ****, but the D was quite solid. Honestly I don't think the wind was as significant as some people are making it out to be. Yes there were periods it was a factor (like a couple calgary kicks and throws) but for the Bombers it was mostly about calling a stupid game. Calgary had no answer for the run game so of course they get brown to try throwing into coverage because they weren't even trying to go downfield at all. And don't get me started about putting prukop in notnonce but twice to put us in 2nd and long. Just a stupid game. Brown really had no chance given what they were calling for plays.

It's been drizzling off and on throughout the day and supposed to taper off as the evening goes on. I don't expect the weather will affect the game. Might be a bit nippy in the stands though.

Yeah it's crazy, something close to 99% of the time the team that scores more points wins.

Drove into Kelowna Monday evening and left Tuesday midday, wasn't even very smokey now it turns out it's all on fire on the west side. Crazy stuff hope everyone is safe.

On the other hand he did give us that one beauty of a game vs. Bc where Fred Reid and I forget the other guys name absolutely went off to the tune of like 300 yards rushing. So there was one bright spot.

Glenn is too mediocre to win! So here's Stefan Lefors! It was a pants on head stupid move because mediocre Glenn is a hell of a lot better than awful Lefors. Kelly made his mark alright, and it was doomed to fail from the get go and everyone knew it.

I see that influence on the team though. This team has always been physical and not afraid to hurt a guy within the rules. One of the things that makes them tough to beat. You gotta win a 4 quarter street fight.

If Hansen ever comes back that will help some roster issues too, though at this point can we expect him back?

Woah let's not get crazy, a large slurpee? What flavour? Cause that seems like asking way too much.

yeah jumping to these conclusions isn't really going to help your case here dude.... I haven't got the energy to get into this particular debate but immediately going to the "you're weird or an incel" argument is just a nicer way of saying "what are you a ***?" if you ask me.

Imagine if in a couple years you got streveler starting somewhere, brown starting somewhere... and everyone looks at the Bombers as the new qb factory. Has that ever happened?

Yeah other than Toronto being perpetually a problem in my mind Calgary is the worst off franchise at the moment in terms of potential crisis. Edmonton will be fine when they fix the onfield product. Calgary just doesn't seem to care about the cfl and that includes the owners.

The cancer center being built at the foothills campus is not anything to do with the UofC. UofC has a couple buildings there but that area is mostly to do with the foothills hospital. Honestly I think building the stadium in the same spot isn't a problem, the problem is that no one wants to pay for it. The hockey arena is what the focus was on, cfl is an after thought in this city.

Calling 3rd down nation media is being incredibly generous. Fanboi bloggers ain't media.

Holy ******* hell yes.

Contact was with the head, no idea how they justify it.

Ritchie and Bauer were at odds, Ritchie knew it and held tightly to veterans to try and avoid giving Bauer a reason to fire him. It was moreso going with Daley that screwed things than firing Ritchie. Firing Berry was a mistake, the bigger mistake was going with Kelly. Don't fire people and replace them with worse people.

what's wrong with the secondary? Honestly if it's a trap game it'd be because a young qb makes too many mistakes.
