Tate's a hothead & a flake. He appears to be a selfish, "Me First" kind of qb. He doesn't like to look bad so he snarls at teammates when they screw up. He may be fiery but I don't consider him a true leader because of that trait. BLM is a cool customer who has a totally different demeanor on the field. if he starts the majority of the games he'll start distancing himself from Tate.

Didn't Banks play mostly as a nickelback on passing downs last year?... no reason he couldn't play a similar role this year.... I like his attitude and I think it helps the team off the field to have him around this year... assuming he's not a liability on the field

Matt Nichols deserves to be starting somewhere as well, IMO. It's just too bad injuries have limited him.

Why wouldn't we want Watson blocking? He hits like a truck, when he sneaks out after blocking he is an excellent threat and why put a slower, reliable guy on the outside when you can put a home run sprinter hopefully with good hands or a huge target with good hands?
Just seems like change for the sake of change... Also, Watson loves the physicality of his spot..

Those other guys didn't fit into my argument.

Does it not mean "eaters of raw meat" ?

I think mbrg is right here.
There were only five Stampeders rushing on that play.  Seven guys were on the line, two dropped back.  And FFS we had Grigsby in the backfield blocking too, so our protection outnumbered their pass rush 6-5.
Look at how #51 was one-on-one with the outside rusher and totally whiffed on him. He wasn't even a speed bump. This is some Boatmanesque ****.

Meanwhile on the other side of the line, #60, he's just kinda wandering, lost in space, and then he reaches out and taps the guy opposite him as if to reassure.
This looks pretty shameful for the OL here.  Maybe you can fault Hall for throwing a ball he shouldn't have thrown, but you can't blame him for playing behind an LT who's more of a matador than a football player.

No that was him... he was looking like he had potential to be the next Thigpen/(that guy from hamilton who had the labour dispute)
 
We haven't seen a ton from him on offense as of yet... but his speed on returns means if you scheme right...

Kemp and Johnson both looked like they had a clue what they were doing.... but they both put a lot of balls on the turf over the course of the 2 games. I am always concerned about guys who drop passes because your #1 job as a receiver is to catch the ball when it comes to you. 

The problem with Bryant Turner at fullback is that the only person who could stop him on D would be Bryant Turner. Therefore Cohon just announced that all goal line stands the Bombers engage in this year will be automatically deemed a TD in the interests of saving time. If the Winnipeg RB is stopped on the one yard line, the ref will simply pick up the ball and walk it across the goal line, and signal touchdown. Approval of this rule change was unanimous.

My favorite hot dog in the city is at Dairy Wip.  I love it.  Hot dog, chili, onions, some mustard and the big pickle on top.  So delicious....
 

A common scenario.
 
Fan of Other Team : We have a pretty good fanbase, passionate , vocal, rich history.
 
Riderfans. Meh, nowhere close to us, we're different we're special . I was at your stadium last week there were more Rider fans (or loudest fans were Rider fans). We're not like other fans in Canada.
 
Fan of Other Team : Well, I was at a Rider game with my team sweater on and somebody whipped a beer can at my (kid, girlfriend , buddy etc) head.
 
Riderfans : <indignation> So what ? happens at every game we're no different.

That's because the Bombers always get raped in Calgary. 

Also, The League anyone?! 
 
And how could I forget American Horror Story, either.  Hmm..

Hmm that seems so much simpler than tunneling in from the golf course, why didn't I think of that?

I came here to read about Kramer.

This is where I thought Unamba (and our linebackers in general) struggled .. 1/4 of all passes the Argo QBs completed were to RBs .. every single pass was caught (7/7 on passes to running backs for 66 yards .. nearly 9.5 a reception) .. the backs also accounted for 3 majors and about half of Toronto's total offense (around 48%) .. it didn't inspire a lot of confidence in a coordinator who has been seen as a somewhat unconventional guy ..

Hall was better than some of you are thinking. The offense bogged down but I don't think it was all on him. Only qb that left me with the impression that he doesn't have a clue what he's doing out there was Brohm. 

Right now my OL would be January, Greaves, Morley, Knapp, Neufeld.

Not going to do this for every game but posted a quick offense recap for the game. 
 
Through the course of the year I'll write up some different aspects that aren't captured by the stats alone although some of it has me handcuffed if they don't get the US broadcast thing sorted out shortly.

I think Willy and Hall are #1 and #2 at least until mid-season.  I can't see the club cutting Hall.

Marve was also playing with our back up offence

But how was the dental plan?
