It's pretty disheartening because I think a lot of fans and the team itself thought this might be the year. I guess the good thing is that we are now in a situation where we really think we can win it all. We'll need a couple changes next year to really put us over the top. 1. If we can get Mike Reilly that would be amazing but I don't think it's going to happen. Nichols is a good QB but he is no Mitchell or Reilly. Probably 3rd best QB in the league but it's by a fair margin. 2. Better receivers. We did good to improve our Canadian talent but we still don't have those few Americans that can get open consistently. See: The recruiting of Calgary, Hamilton and Edmonton. 3. Return game/special teams. What happened here? We used to be able to threaten to score fairly often. Seems like there's 3 guys on our returner as soon as he touches the ball. 4. One guy I'm going to single out is Kevin Fogg. Think we need better play out of that position.

That was gruesome

I would have counted them out if it wasn't for what they did to BC last week. Masoli is so hot right now

I think we're playing safer on ST in all facets because we are a better team on offense and defense. Honestly doubt we'll see any tricks now

Good thing our all star calibre center and guard are healthy.

Pat yourself on the back lol. No we needed to be better on both offense and defense. Do you remember our receivers last year? I think we were hanging our hats on L'Damian Washington. We've seen upgrades in Thompkins, Demski and Wolitarsky. If anything we got better on O and D and a little worse on ST (which had given us big plays the last couple years)

The D-Line has been much more consistent since Brandin Bryant got in there. No complaints here.

I was thinking the same thing. Guess they do a lot of evaluation in practice. Or maybe Priester did a Poop

Bombers have gotten it all together at the right time. Calgary may just be getting things back together with their new set of receivers. Sask has been a winning team for the latter part of the year. It is going to be a real fun playoffs to watch. Most power rankings have Winnipeg Calgary and Sask 1 2 and 3 for a reason. Our team is 1 but we are also going to be on the road the entire time

Well hopefully he considers coming back. Good depth player

Sucks for Leggett but I didn't see him contributing any more this year. Having Gray and Jeffcoat is good depth in both lines. How about Trent Corney?

What you're saying is that if they were more unlucky they would be out of playoffs. They've lost almost their entire receiving core. That is about as unlucky as it gets

I don't see how you can consider the stamps lucky in any way. I would say pretty unlucky

Unfortunately Calgary is playing about as bad as they have for years. Hopefully we can take advantage of that next week

Strict probability is not affected by the past. It came down to 2 games for us to win and 2 games for Sask to lose. Yes on a coin flip our odds weren't great but the way the two teams were playing it definitely could have happened

Why would you say that. The way we put the boots to the Riders last week they could have easily lost the last two games

Bombers still not getting any help. Just gotta win

Yeah right now Lulay scares the heck out of me. Sending them to the crossover would help

We are still far from assured a playoff spot and it will be up to our team to get one. We can't really back in

Edmonton winning brings that nightmare scenario where we can finish 10-8 and out of playoffs. I think I'd rather the Lions win. Plus, if BC wins and we beat Calgary next week, then we are playing an Edmonton team that is already out of the playoffs. I'm still hoping for 2nd place in the West.

A lot can change between now and the draft. Our needs could change by a lot

Have to hand it to the Riders defense for straight up winning them some games because now that other defenses have caught up the Riders look like they should be the team not making the playoffs

Really don't see how Chung doesn't come back. He's already signed an extension before and things are still going pretty good

Listened to his interview just now and he sounds like Doug Brown. Not a bad thing.

Normally I'd agree with you with an NI VS Import but Bighill has been that damn good of a player for us. He makes a difference every play and makes everyone around him better. So when you say it's not even close, I don't think that's true. In fact, Chungh and Bighill will likely get similar salary. And if that's not a gauge of importance to the team, I'm not sure what is Gotta think they are two of our top free agents. We must sign both
