    Good, that info. should be included on every depth chart published not just some.

    Agreed. On their "Starting Lineup" social media posts they don't include the changes whereas in the older style depth charts (PDF and then image) they do. I wish they'd include the changes on both since they more actively share the Starting Lineup images

    Unless the Bombers eke out a tie somewhere the season series is irrelevant.

    If they both finish on 10 wins, the Riders would finish ahead because they have the extra point afforded to a tie.

    If they both end up on 20 points (Bombers have 10 wins, Riders have 9 but another tie)... the Bombers finish ahead because they have more wins.

    While it's true that a tiebreaker is very unlikely because of their tie, winning on Saturday would effectively be a 4 point swing for us in the standings (in addition to hopefully crushing their green heart)

    does anyone saying that pay attention to the NFL? Green Bay just did exactly what we’re discussing, moving on from Aaron Rodgers to give Jordan Love the team. 

    Or earlier than that, from Favre to Rodgers in the first place, or even earlier, from Montana to Young.

    Plus it wouldn't even be Collaros vs Brown, but rather Collaros + the fifth round pick we got for Brown vs. Brown + the asset we would get for Collaros (and I assume more than a 5th round pick) + the cap space to sign another impact player.

    Offense ******* sucks and was much worse without our big protection packages. Was happy to see them pull something out of their ass at the end there.

    Yeah when our base O is max protect and we lose two OL we're in big trouble. I expected them to bring out Thomas or another DL as an emergency TE. I don't get why we didn't use Streveler as an H Back once Wallace went down.

    My 3 stars...

    1. Bonds is money

    2. Castillo made every kick in a game where we needed every point

    3. Brady with 120 on the ground and some clutch yards and blocks on the game winning drive

    HH. Collaros in the last 1:38. I've been so critical of him this year but he showed out there playing with guts and intelligence. 

    On the other hand, we're in trouble with the Collaros of the other 58:22

    Just finished watching on PVR. How can our offense and our QB be so lost for 58 minutes and then execute so well for the last drive. That was incredible. I went back and rewatched the last drive and it was pretty vanilla to my untrained eyes (which I guess makes sense for a 2 minute drill) -- only one wrinkle with two backs blocking on the TD play -- but so well executed. I hope we can replicate that as it shows what Zach can still do if he can find that gear. It was gutsy, with his runs, and cerebral with his left to right progression to find Demski on the big throw to Demski. I'd really like to see us let him use his legs more. And Brady was fighting so hard. One great drive ended up being enough tonight.

    As an aside, I want to shout out Clercius. I was disappointed to lose BOLO in the offseason but Clercius has been an improvement in that spot. Catching 80% of his targets and nearly at BOLO's season high in yardage. Granted he's getting more opportunities with the receiving corps being decimated but Clercius is making the most of them. I think he's got a future as a tough yards guy, converting second downs

    Or actually use the Nationalized roster perk?

    I feel like Bighill is definitely the guy to do that with, if they finally concede to using it. Keeping him on a snap count and using him where he's still got it would be so beneficial. If they could have Jones or Wilson playing most of those reps with Bighill subbing in we'd be so much tighter in the LB core.

    after watching the replay of the receiver on that route I'm not blaming Collaros as much for the pick. Receiver could have ran that one better which is probably what Collaros was expecting. 

    That's good to know. I just saw it from the stands. I'll watch the replay. It did look like the DB ran the route for the receiver (Wilson?)

    There's no use running that look if Streveler isn't comfortable with it.

    Will continue to be problems until they adjust.  Lots you can do with him and running backs, Demski/Whitehead etc. to open up a ton of vertical gaps, use fakes and option looks.

    It seems like he's frequently going C gap or wider on those runs. Not sure why he's not going inside. Lack of push by the interior OL?

    What's missing on offense do we think? We have the weapons to be scoring more than 20. I'm not a fan of the play calling but that seems like an easy out?

    Play calling and QB execution are the two big ones for me. We absolutely need to be getting Brady more touches and ideally letting Streveler actually be a QB when we bring him in. But the other thing is accepting that Zach is going to be a B+ quarterback at his best at this point in his career. He had one throw tonight that was exceptional (the corner to Demski for the long gain), one boneheaded (the pick) and a bunch that were good but not great. He didn't seem to be hitting receivers in stride, ball seemed to be a bit late or a bit behind

    Correct typo

    This is my first game attended since I moved to BC in January, and it was very nice to leave with a convincing W for the second time in two games against BC (and also seeing them win in BC again after being at the wild October game lasr year.)

    From my seat...

    1. Jones -- I believe he had an incredible clean hit on Rourke on one of his scrambles. Probably the best MLB game I've seen from us this year. The only place I can see for Bighill on the roster at this point is as a nationalized American backup and short yardage player 

    2. Brady -- I wish we'd feed him more. No reason that the first rush of the game should have gone to JA. Unless we're playing from behind and need to air it out, Brady should be getting 20+ combined touches per game.

    3. The four letter field side defenders in Ford and Holm -- a pick and an almost pick from Ford, and a few great recovery pass breakups by Holm. 

    HH. Whitehead continuing with his physical streak and fighting for the tough yards on O and ST 

    Observation of the game -- one main thing I miss about Winnipeg is home games at Fort Hew. Doman has gone incredible things to turn the Lions around and make football into accessible and affordable entertainment here in BC. But while it's great entertainment, a football atmosphere it is not. The lack of timely replays and down and distance, and inaccurate / unconfident stadium announcing were very noticeable. BC is on the right track in building the Lions up as a franchise, but it's got a ways to go in making it feel more like a football game.

     Also, this team feels like 2019 to me. We can win with dominant D, adequate offensive, and occasionally exceptional special teams

    hh cadwallader with an incredible recovery on the on side fg.

    That was so clutch for someone who likely isn't on the hands team

    blocker of the game Randolph had him self a day and really helped solidify the ol 1 down 1 to go 

    Reminds me off when we put Bond in at RG in 2017 or 18 I believe and it changed the line. I think Randolph had one illegal procedure and I didn't see him get beat. What a great first start.

    You gotta show your D you believe in them after the way they played all game 

    I get why they went for it, but I don’t think that was the right choice given how desperately we needed a win. That’s a call you make when you’re 5-2, not 2-5

    It's not just trusting the D, it's also avoiding the risk of Grant on a KO return. If you convert the first down (and arguably they did), you can bleed clock and then kick for the win with little time left.
