Greaves is a starting Canadian offensive lineman. If anything his value goes up during the season with injuries. But he is still more valuable to us. Need oline depthI could be a Canadian offensive lineman but I'd probably suck. Does that mean my trade value just went up? Are you a starting Canadian offensive lineman? Greaves is a starting Calibre guy and is consistently healthy.

You think they would activate Gordon? I think Veltung might make more sense if Adams can't play this week. I don't know why Veltung would make more sense to some folks, Veltung was hardly a consideration at receiver throughout camp and likely wouldn't even be on the roster if not for the fact Stoudermire AND Carlos Anderson both got hurt - meanwhile, Gordon ran with the 1s and 2s almost all camp. Maybe Veltung is a better game performer than practice performer, that definitely does happen with guys now and then, but Gordon still looked impressive and if he and Willy can get some chemistry, he could be dangerous. I think Veltung has made the most of his chances and has done a pretty good job as a returner and receiver. Maybe he continues to get better given more opportunity . He is definitely what you'd call a skilled player. Speed, quickness, seems to be able to catch the ball. Gordon hasn't really proved much except for how to piss Willy off running the wrong route

I could be wrong but i think you can pull as many people as you want off of the 6-game. But there's a limit to how many you can do before having to pay their salary for the time they're off? You have to pay their salary no matter what. You are allowed to take one player off the 6 game early without the previous games while on the 6 game counting against the cap. Stoudermire would likely be our first half exemption if he is back this week and Collins (on a rookie contract) we would likely activate, if healthy, and just eat his cap hit for the last 3 games. No matter what though, they are paid their salary in full while on the 6 game. I knew that but for some reason did not say it

I think our D line may be getting asked to muck it up and hold their lanes more than rush the QB as to make things easier on our MLB

It would be stupid to fire Chamblin but I have to admit that he had a meltdown this game

Interesting to see Bastien taken out before Richards. Wonder if Richards is going to start making an impact soon.

Does our US scouting dept doing a good job or not? They brought a lot of talent during the off-season and training camp but looks like most of them are not good enough to stick with the team even those who made it after the TC. Starting to feel the same way. Some of these guys looked really good in training camp but are either failing completely or aren't being given any time to develop.

While he might provide a bit of a spark .. Veltung has acquitted himself nicely so far in the return game. Very true. Wonder if we could get them both back there on kickoffs somehow...or if it would be worth it. Pick your poison.

Honestly I see the Bombers in both games as very similar teams. I actually would say our defense got a little bit better in Hamilton (they were much closer to making plays than in Saskatchewan). The problem was that we were playing a better team and our starting QB went out. Then things went downhill quickly (kick return touchdown, interceptions etc.). I'm hoping that our defense can take another step in the right direction. They are still learning the system. Talent wise I think they can be a respectable defense once they stop making huge mistakes. It's a new week. Go Blue.

Really great news.

It is possible they are giving him reps early to see how he handles it after the practice and into the next day. If there's anything at all wrong I see them giving more reps to Brohm and Marve tomorrow.

No pressure on the QB. Not taking any throwing lanes away. Coupled with Hamilton having pretty good receivers...i wonder why our DBs are struggling

So you're basically describing last week then? I think Hamilton will have a better overall defence than Sask and that is what worries me. Our defense as a whole needs to be better, in turn. And who knows, maybe home field advantage will actually be an advantage this year?

I think that was Westerman

It was driving me crazy hearing the announcers just swooning over Messam. The guy has a huge lane with nobody in front of him for yards and he's all of a sudden a top 10 player in the league. Give me a break

I actually saw glimpses of Westerman getting at the QB only to be held up or arriving just too late. He has really good jump off the snap. Not giving up on him yet. But I would like to see more rotation on the line as well. And would kind of like seeing Kashawn Fraser on the roster.

I'm personally concerned about the DTs more than anything. Very ineffective

Kevin Glenn can predict which starting QB will get hurt next

Those look like two basement dwellers to me...

Sounds like Kohlert is day to day and could still be in the lineup. If he can't go they might give themselves the flexibility to go 4 american receivers.

Really? He seemed like a gamer to me...

The Marve and Veltung show in the 4th quarter was pretty great. Second best returner in Tc and has some potential to be better I think. Not counting him out completely

Hard not to get excited when Marve is in the game though. He can make guys look silly with his legs.
