I dunno, I think Trestman deserves some props for what he did in Toronto this year as well. Oh well, the Bombers are always going to be criminally under rated around the rest of the country.
-
Yeah that's true about Willy, time blends together and I just assumed Lapo had been here longer. Still I think these questions need to be asked about Lapolice. Never really developed a qb, guys who have looked good in his offense are few and far between... methinks he is over rated as an offensive guru.

COTY is based on reputation unless one team has a remarkable rags to riches story.

How is one player finding the footing and the other not being able to anything but outplaying him? Get your head out of your ass man. -

Which should say something about how our defense was actually playing. Make no mistake, they were not happy with their previous 2 outings and wanted to make a statement. -

If he was totally healthy I bet BLM woulda played that game. DIckenson was not a happy camper at the prospect of going into the playoffs on a 3 game skid, I am certain the only reason BLM didn't play is cause they wanted to give his shoulder the extra rest. -

BLM has had a messed up shoulder since the summer at very least. Guy has not been his usual self this year and you can see it when you watch. He's playing through it but the guy is hurting. -

All that you say about the Stamps qbs you can say about the bombers qbs. They wouldn't have been in there if the game really mattered. We went in with a game plan on offense to not **** things up, mission accomplished. The Stamps didn't do the same. Why do people try and downplay what transpired in the game? It was backup qbs vs. backup qbs and the rest of our team beat the rest of their team. -
That's just mean.

Harris averaged 8.5 per carry rushing and also had 5.6 yards per catch, Messam averaged 2.5 per carry and then caught 3 passes for 0 yards... yeah I'm going to say that Harris outplayed Messam all ******* game long. -
Let them scheme all they like, I have confidence in both players to straight up beat their opponents.
-
Harris and Flanders you're up. Good thing those two have pretty much killed the Esks this season already.
-
Leggett is arguably the best defensive player in the league and can't get any recognition. Totally jobbed.

I approve of your taking a hard stand while also leaving yourself ample room to backtrack out of it. -

You can only beat the team that is lined up against you, and beat the Stamps the Bombers did. I mean it's not like it was Nichols vs. Buckley and Stanzi out there. Stamps had the same backup qb advatange the Bombers did, we avoided mistakes better than they did and our lines outplayed theirs by a lot. Our star Canadian RB also outplayed their star Canadian RB. Stop downplaying what happened. It's not the be all and end all for determining where these two teams are at, but it's not like you are trying to make it sound either. -
good thing reporters prefer flashy offensive stats to defensive players.
-
The offense as a whole has been pretty lacklustre the last few weeks, are we really going to get down on a bunch of receivers for not having big stat lines in that case? The only criticism I will level at a receiver based on those games is Washington has got to stop bobbling passes and flat out dropping the easy ones cause he's done that way too much for my liking.

I call everyone out, your comment was just the most insane one and now you're upset about it. I dunno maybe you didn't think before posting but either way, you put it out there for the world to see and now you wish you hadn't. -

Yeah, forced turnovers. The Stamps didn't force that kind of turnover or score off the ones they did get so their performance wasn't the same. Most of those turnovers were the kind that are caused purely because the front 7 is disrupting things. Stamps couldn't get a run game going which put it all on the arms of the backup qbs and they got to them over and over with the rush which got into their heads. You can try giving some credit to the Bombers you know, it won't kill you. The defensive line has been pretty good the last while here not like this was a one off game, and TSN spent a long time talking about how great the Stamps OL has been this year. -
Then start listening to me. Guy is OK as a backup, not good as a starter, the fact that he can't stay healthy is just the cherry on top. Just cause Kyle Walters loves the guy doesn't mean he was actually playing great. He is OK at best, but he's not always at his best. Guy's best situation is to be playing in spot duty cause he doesn't get overwhelmed.
