I like his competitiveness too. But I don't think he'll be the best as long as Rourke is around. It's hard to ignore Alexanders W/L record, but I just don't see the same pure arm talent, and his defense got him out of a few jams last night including giving him essentially 10 points. It's close, but I'd still put Rourke above him. Give Rourke the MTL defense and the results are likely similar. I guess if you want to ignore all of Banks' production on O. Has Grant ever passed 300 yards rec in any year? Banks is far more accomplished as painful as that is for me to say

I want the ball in the hands of our best play makers. I don't care how it gets there. Brady makes **** happen whenever he has the ball, especially if it's in space.

I'd also add the Brady is as much of a rec threat as he is a running one. I really hope he's utilized more in the passing game this year.

I think Begelton will be a shadow of his former self. That was a pretty serious injury he had and he's still not ready to go. He consistently struggles to stay healthy and he's no spring chicken!

Exactly. If this offense is supposed to rely on Collaros putting it up all the time...it doesn't matter who is out there to catch. It won't work.

I envy other teams who would not be impacted at all by their top 2 receivers going down in a single game. I can't believe the Bombers are the only team that would have that problem. Welcome to 9th place!!

Nope...he got rocked and did a little flip.

Mills

Says who?

Wheatfall was given every opportunity be the guy last year. He completely vanished after the first few games, when the team needed someone to step up. Wheatfall beating out the #3 import is something I'd be completely fine with. Daniels did what he was asked to do. Remember when Walters wanted to draft him because of his exceptional catching and route running? Isn't that what his quote about Daniels is? The guy isn't going to be catching 5 passes a game. He's here to block. Agreed about Rocker...though I don't know why they'd even bring him in to TC to begin with. And I don't take anything away from Pre-seasons game either win or lose. But in 2019 in one game they scored 3 points. The Offense blew people TF up to start that year. I was pointing out that shitty preseason games don't point to anything other than shitty preseason games.

booch...ever single guy you listed outside of Augustine (And even him to a degree) have had little to no impact in this league. And even then, all of those guys were not TC cuts as rookies. They all got on to this Coaching staffs team, got opportunities to become something and they all did nothing with those opportunities. Hamilton had a better record sure...they also played Ott more and watched the GC right next the Bombers. Likewise, I'm not saying I like all the cuts. But what we see in pre-season games doesn't = all stars even if all star plays were made during those games. I'm blown away by people talking about that rookie draft pick who scored as if he's some miracle worker...any one of us could have scored there. It was a busted coverage. His 2nd TD was solid, but again...against a Rookie in what looked like man coverage. Not exactly an amazing play in my books. And to have some on here declaring a 3rd place finish or worse because of what happened? Lol...it's pre-season. A ****** rifle caught 2 passes, should he be on the team too? lol. People need to chill out. They went 1-4 in preseason games during the last 2 championship season.

To be fair the backups played BCs starters for the first couple of drives and kept the reigning MOP out of the endzone and held the best WR to what 1 catch? Then the bc backups came in along with bomber 3rd stringers/rifles/just flat out cuts.

Having only 3 games opening week is a dumb move. @Rich I voted...but it's telling me I don't have permission to vote in this poll, or see the poll results.

I mean I guess...unless you take what Clinton said about that play in the post game as truth. "I saw something brown in the air and jumped at it". Rookies/scrubs playing against each other absolutely play in to it. You think that that wide open TD from the draft pick the Bombers obviously fumbled, wasn't a busted coverage? Rookies playing rookies can make average players look like world beaters. We can say all we want about pre-season play...but if Clinton is constantly making the same mistakes in practice day in and day out should Younger ignore that because he picked off a back up QB in the preseason game? I'm just using Clinton as an example....practice reps absolutely mean something when it comes to understanding the scheme. And showing coaches you can be trusted to be where you're supposed to be. There were multiple plays last game where guys where obviously in the wrong area (because a WR was wide open, or there would just be 2 defenders doing the same thing about 3 yards apart). This happens every year. People ***** and moan about pre-season cuts and how well they played against other teams 3rd stringers. And those cuts eventually join other teams and become absolute all-stars....except they don't....they're usually never heard from again. Sure other teams have guys they're invested in and want to bring in etc etc...but if these guys were such Pre-season masters and obvious heros, they should absolutely show up somewhere again right? Like Lawler....or Grant...But that just doesn't happen as much as some want to pretend it does.

Ahh, so I see its the time of year when we pretend pre-season games are the be all end all of evaluation.
