A smart choice. That would be bearable. I would rather drive home than stay too. Weather and roads should be great.

Teams can, and often do, play stretches of very good football and very poor football all within the confines of a season. It is not a static thing. You cannot say that Edmonton in week 3 was the same team as Edmonton in week 15. You can't say Ottawa in week 2 was the same Ottawa team as week 15 either. You can't even say that Winnipeg now is the same team as Winnipeg 6 weeks ago. Things change. Momentum comes and goes, and teams are not playing at the same level all season long. At the time we played Ottawa they were rolling and playing very good football. When we played Edmonton the first time they were on fire as well. Momentum and confidence are massive in football.

Lining up Strev in a HB role would not be a waste of a roster spot whatsoever. It would be a waste if he couldn't run the ball, but we all know he is capable of a 1000 yard rushing season. On 2nd and short having the QB, Streveler, and Harris all in the backfield would give defences fits. There is just no way to game plan your defences for that. Easily worth going with only 4 receivers when that package is in.

Taking the MLBer out of the run game is not the other team figuring it out. It is desperation. That's the ability Strev brings to the table.

It may come to that. Hopefully the Bombers site learned to back up from the massive fail that RIderfans made in that regard last year.

You use your obliques more in running than you do in throwing. Especially when you are trying to change direction quickly. He won't have the core power needed for escapability. The Bombers will find out early that he is incapable of running out to the flats or throwing on the run. This will give big advantages to our defence. It's his bread and butter. Fajardo is a below average pocket passer. His whole game is his legs and quick accurate release under pressure. An oblique tear will really hamper both those things even if he can somehow manage to be pain free.

Yea we had a kind of hybrid zone/man, a lot like Jones used to run, and it messed him right up.

lol...but seriously i do know that TEP's age has been creating a lot of problems for it over the past couple months because of new internet security protocols on browsers. It may have come to a head.

They simply said as I stated to me and said they would have it back up as quickly as possible. i know when Riderfans went down last year it was over a month.

Snowman is slang for the number eight.

I doubt it...but that would be cool.

I would too, but not on his current contract.

The site will be back up. I emailed the WBB football club about it and they said they had no answers as to when but said it was something that they value and will continue to support.

I have mixed feelings. Calgary would be a much tougher game this week, but there is zero chance Fajardo could even be considered last week and we would have dogpiled the Harker led RIders. If Harker starts for the Riders this week, or Fajardo is hampered by injury this week, then I agree with you.

And when all the tears fell on the ground they began circling the stadium clockwise down unto the centre of the field where a hole opened up and whooshed them all away. Mosaic's design was finally brought to fruition and it proved that the giant toilet bowl look was no coincidence. In Australia they would have went the other direction.

We got good pressure on Fajardo in all 3 games. His legs helped him out immeasurably. The RIders OL is not good at all and were HUGE beneficiaries of Fajardo's legs. Without his legs I could see us with a snowman of sacks.

However, if it becomes apparent that Fajardo's running is hampered look out. It will be ugly.

They will but when given a chance to hit hard they will hit a little harder than normal.

Exactly why anyone thinking this is fake news is wrong. The RIders would have to be monumentally stupid to paint a big bullseye on Fajardo heading into a game.

I too enjoy breathing.

An interesting read from the Leader Post from a QB who has gone through an oblique injury. https://leaderpost.com/sports/football/cfl/saskatchewan-roughriders/former-u-of-s-huskies-quarterback-steve-bilan-feels-cody-fajardos-pain?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR0XtBEz2J1g3Pcc1Ermw1Y9j7HrHcxR7K60rKvN_cDJ-BYGE1wKhQT9Fe4#Echobox=1573740461

It's called the game plan. It's something a lot of people forget when discussing Matt.

Are there any other kind of piles where men punch each other in the nuts? Asking for a friend.

Many years ago when I played, when on the bottom of the pile we were instructed to pick a guy and give him a shot in the nuts. Not enough to hurt him, just enough to get him to lose his temper. Worked like a charm. 1st down only yielded 1 yard, let's run again create a pile and move the ball 15 on the UR penalty the other team would take.

Don't say that to Aardvark. The Bombers basically hired Bob Wylie on his recommendation and who could forget the hot chocolate debacle of 2015 where his complaint launched an investigation into the hot beverage industry at IGF.
