Is that really his job, or just what he does? There is a difference. He should come over to Winnipeg and learn how being the voice of a football team should be done. Doesn't mean you have to come up with your own version of the truth. People think Pederson is a joke,,,because he is a joke.

I think it would be monumentally stupid to even consider trading or cutting Drew Willy without giving him a chance to play behind this OL. However, he needs to fix his brain and learn to trust his OL. Early in the season, what we saw was not a QB making poor reads or not understanding the offence. What we saw was a guy who has been a human piñata, coming off a near career ending injury, showing shellshock and not showing confidence in the team around him. After several games on the bench, and witnessing Matt Nichols get protected behind a revamped OL, I think Willy's confidence would be night and day different. I think he is a much better QB than Nichols when his confidence level is high. I would like to see if he can find it again before we throw him away. I would just like to add that those who can't see the difference in the level of play between the OL, D, and even STs from earlier this season are just being obtuse imo. The difference is HUGE.

OL is what worries me the most. We NEED to get Chungh extended. If we can't it's huge trouble.

Toronto also makes sense if we were to develop a 3 way trade with an experienced backup coming our way as part of the compensation.

I think Montreal would be a good fit for Willy and the Bombers. We get Glenn and ? in return. Win/Win.

Chiles was cut because he sucked this year so far. Yea...he had the 3 TDs...none were over 8 yards though. Other than that a very pedestrian 40 yard average per game as the number 2 receiver. Pass....

Probably something along those lines...or something he wore on the sidelines perhaps. That falls under the league's policy as well.

Johnson has been excellent since returning from injury. Very solid. I was a guy who was on the fence about him last year and earlier this year, but he has really stepped up lately. That is why I am not flogging a secondary that puts Randle/Adams in his spot as an easy solution to our plethora of DBs.

You dress Adams and rotate him in and see if he is the same player he was prior to injury. If he is, then you give him the job. Actually, it will mean he has taken the job straight up. Then you look to extend him and start talking contract extension. We have Fredericks on a 2 year deal, he will get his chance in the secondary. If the plan is just to roll with Fredericks then we should try unload Adams for a draft pick or useful player elsewhere and get some value from Adams. He would be highly coveted at his age and ability level.

We should boycott the game. No Bombers fans at the LDC and the Riders will be in so much financial trouble that they probably won't be able to afford Durant next year. Man that sure sounds silly when you turn tables...yet that is exactly what Rider fans were suggesting last week they should do to Calgary...and they thought it might work. Another whopper was about a 3 page conversation about how the Riders have the 2nd best receiving corps in the CFL. THE 2nd BEST RECEIVING CORPS? Delusional.

Angry clowns scare me too.

Johnny Adams is an all star DB. If you don't play him when he's healthy then you should trade him. Sitting him is crazy talk.

Not surprising....big contract and poor performance.

The Bombers are for real so far as being able to honestly compete with all the teams in the CFL now. Are they Grey Cup contenders....I don't think so. However, they should be considered a strong contender for a playoff spot and definitely have the ability to upset teams if they don't give us their 100% in opposition. That is a big step up for us over the last couple years imo.

if you are rolling out Hecht into your starting lineup because he is better than what you already have you are in deep, deep Can-Con trouble.

I'm not sure he is. He was getting torched badly before he was sat down and appears to have lost a step.

Some clown over at Riderfans was suggesting that they should all boycott the next Riders game in Calgary and then see how happy Mitchell is when the Stamps can't afford to pay his salary. SMH

I can tell you sure as ****, that Mr. Orridge is taking his marching orders on this from the collective of ownership around the league. They have been playing fast and loose with the league's internally policed honor system. You don't go poaching other teams entire coaching staffs during Grey Cup week, you don't go tampering with players, you don't try to buy a winner by setting up a competitive advantage outside the boundaries of the rules, and you most certainly don't give off the appearance that you don't give a **** while you're doing it. Orridge gave them a ***** slap. Does anyone truly believe that it wasn't orchestrated by the rest of the league's owners? Riderfans may not like it but this was the warning shot across the bow from the rest of the league. Start acting with some dignity and class or the rest of the league will put the screws to you.

They sure sound batshit crazy don' they? You have to wonder where they come up with this, until you read an article by their most respected journalist and he is clearly the ring leader.

Can you blame that fan base for being so out to lunch. Their journalists are cheer leaders that openly fellate the team, and provide completely unrealisitic, untrue, and openly stupid commentary. So sad. Over on Riderfans they are fellating themselves as the "flagship" franchise in the league with undying fan support. The reason given....we make the most money and are propping up the whole league. Ummmmm.....last year you LOST 4.3 million dollars. Can't see their uber competitive team they are fielding this year providing any more of a profit. A year or two away from telethons again. I guess now it would be a GoFundMe campaign I suppose. What is the worst in all of this is that they are trying to circumvent an SMS that was designed to keep them from folding, and is STILL keeping them from folding. As much as the Riders would like to believe that they can run with the big dogs, in a non-SMS reality they would be crushed under by the Wetenhalls and Bob Youngs of the league. It's laughable when they equate profits to their ability to outspend other teams. This league has owners that piss away more money in a day than the Riders make in a year.

The Riders have won 5 games out of their last 31 games. There are problems is Riderville. Big problems. Systemic problems. They are a gong show right now that is easily on par with the gong show we witnessed when Kelly was here. Just watch the mass exodus of players coming this offseason. Players are going to run for the hills away from them.

The only problem I have with the Mulumba pick is in hindsight. At the time Mack chose him, he was considered an extreme longshot to get anything more than a quick cup of coffee at an NFL camp. I personally am still of the belief that had Mack been our GM that his buddy Dom Capers would have released Mulumba as a favor to Mack.

Well if supplementary discipline is yet to come, I hope they get it right this time, and teach them and Jones a lesson they will not forget. I would love to see Jones suspended from CFL football operations for a couple weeks by the league. Not even allowed to call the office to see if he forgot his hemorrhoid cushion there.

Ripper wants the whole league investigated? I have no problem with that so long as some credible evidence or accusation against another team is made first. This isn't and can't be turned into a league wide witch hunt because the Riders got caught with their hand in the cookie jar. An investigation like this, if done properly, will take weeks to complete and will cost a lot of money. Is it fair? Yes it's fair. When an allegation is made against one team that is what should be investigated, not a league wide witch hunt. If the Riders have some credible evidence to support that other teams are doing the same, in the course of them being investigated they can bring that forward and the league can investigate the other team or teams on the basis of their accusation. Ripper this isn't about what other teams are doing. This is about what the Riders are doing. They are the ones who have some explaining to do....and it's looking more and more like the Riders are going to go down HARD for this.

Couple of thoughts on the original post and other sentiments on here. First off, all message boards are dominated by the more active users. Just stands to reason. Secondly, I agree with Noeller that TEP is in dire need of an update. To whoever said they only saw a couple active posters at TEP...???? It's the most active of the Bomber forums currently. Lastly, both the TEP and here are quality Bomber sites with many of the same members going back and forth. I see no reason for either forum, or it's members, to whip out their wieners and try to measure which one is the best. Kind of stupid. Especially when nonsense gets tossed around like no one posts at TEP but a couple of people, or everyone at MBB are bullies. Just stupid.
