But I thought the tariffs were a national security issue! This guy can't keep any story straight and yet the base eats up every thing he says.

Cut Down Day - - Wild Assed Guesses (WAG System)

Faith never surpassed the level of Jake Thomas so no point keeping him forever just because. Montgomery I guess just too many other good guys at the position. Betting they asked him to take a pr spot but he declined. -

You know when Denmark was a rookie it was other guys who grabbed the attention in camp yet Denmark remained and did damned well. Sometimes it's not about the few big plays it is the consistency. -

I have it on good authority that Dennis wished he'd never gone to sask in the first place as well. Jones just has no clue. -

oh man why do people ever sign a deal with Jones when he treats guys the same year after year. -
Not going to lie, I was really hoping Owens would be a starter for the riders.
-
White dropped passes in both games. Not a real surprise he was one of the guys to get cut. Plenty of times reports from camp aren't truly indicative.
-
It's Chris Jones. When your leadership is a bunch of tools the players act like a bunch of tools. Calgary has classy folks in charge and their players act better. Same deal in Winnipeg. It starts at the top and trickles down.
-
So I get that white has made some plays, but he's also dropped a few. Ot sure he is a lock.
-
Totally. He got broken taking so many hits here. Any hint of pressure and he turtles.

Odds and Sods 2018 X-game 2 - Bombers at BC Lions
17to85 replied to do or die's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Everyone is vanilla in preseason so not worried about that. The key is beating the man across from you cause every playbook opens up next week. -
He had a rough game but man I want to see them keep developing Streveler. Kid has all kinds of potential.
-
I saw it immediately and was an instant fan of the guy. Rb steps in and gets tossed aside like he's not there. Love that kind of strength.

This game filled me with confidence. They left a ton of star power in Winnipeg and the guys they took still managed to look like they can play in this league. Also not worrying about injuries cause the depth looks to finally be at a point where guys can step in and not miss a beat. Kudos to Kyle Walters. Had himself a nice off season. -
I think there have been some guys who made the cuts easy on the coaches and some guys who really jumped off the page. Man Montgomery had a game, but the position is so stacked already....
-
4th string guys looking poor? you don't say
-
Rookie learning that there's more guys on the field in the CFL and that DEs can drop into coverage.
-
Yeah Bennett showed off the cannon on that TD throw but Ross to me eyes looked to have a better grasp of where to go with the ball
-
Considering the respective lineups you have to be happy with what the Bombers did in that half.

You really think Glenn would be fazed by history? What history is that anyway? Having one of the best seasons of his career here? Possibly being a champion here if not for an injury? I think the fans who dislike Glenn harbour more ill will towards Glenn than Glenn harbours towards Winnipeg. -
Or how about this, when a guy goes down holding his knee the first thing everyone does is panic cause it might be an ACL, The team didn't say ****, their message was always "we will get it checked out and see what the story is" They came out and said 4-6 weeks in short order, there's no playing here, just over zealous people wanting to write off Nichols for the year, and why not, makes for easier articles for people to write "who can the bombers trade for?" massive speculation and talking points. The CFL media by and large is only concerned with the low hanging fruit.
-
do you believe that because that's what he does for every single qb he has? That is the entire Lapo playbook, like his entire career that's what he's gone for.
-
Because that's been Lapos MO with this offense the entire time, not to mention that we now have some receivers who can go up and win some one on one battles, that gives qbs some hope too. I just think it's ridiculous to write things off at this point. The entire team looks very solid except for the qbs behind Nichols who are unproven. If a rookie can't manage the game with this team then this team isn't as good as we think it is.
-
So I totally understand that the Ontario Liberals were rotten to the core and needed to be booted out on their asses and that people don't trust the NDP, but Doug Ford? Seriously?

Why is it an isurance policy? Is it the "because I've heard of him!!!!" Mentality that shows up a lot? Vernon Adams has been around the block a bunch and can't seem to stick, that right there should tell me he's not the answer to anybodies qb situation.
