I'm with Booch, go Wilson/Clercius/Wheatfall/Sterns/Echols at WR and declare two nationals on D. Lawson/Kramdi/Smith/Thomas et all can cover things. I do bet we either play a hobbled Demski or go Corcoran/Cobb as the 2nd starter.
I agree would be great if we can. Issue isn’t the number of starters but getting another American on the roster. Don’t know about it at the expense of the dline. Griffin might be health too, would be nice to get him back on D

Riders got hosed by the early whistle from the refs there.
Last time we had to go to Calgary and then Sask in the playoffs it worked out ok.

The question has to be asked why haven't any of these D lineman be able to get into any of the regular season games before today
I hear you but it’s not like they been sitting on the PR all season. They were pretty recent adds

Like the look of the D actually. Hope the young DEs show well and we can see Shay and Smith get some reps.
Resting who they did makes sense for the most part. Either young guy who is our only hope to win in the playoffs (Vaval, BO, Pokey) or old guys that could use a rest (Zach, Bryant, Willie and Vaughters).
I do wonder if they aren't happy with Person's play and are auditioning the other young DEs.

The Stamps starting cleaning house almost immediately after the season their was over (Killam, Monson & Simpsons were turfed less than a week after their last game) because they were willing to make necessary changes - I don't see MOS being willing to do the same but we'll see.
Got to keep in mind which season you're talking about. They were 5-12-1 last year and 6-12 the year before. Of course they were willing to make changes, only way Dave could keep his job after two terrible seasons.

MOS showing his displeasure with him, JJ very animated in trying to coach him up while showing him plays on his playcard, Wilson trying to get Mitchell more engaged on the sidelines as Mitchell would drift off and stand alone while the D was on.
Interesting, thanks.

Based on what I saw on the sidelines last week against the Elks, it makes sense seeing Mitchell come off. On the one hand I'm really surprised he hasn't been released but on the other hand not surprised because we have limited depth at that position.
what did you see?

Don't think I saw this on here yet. DL and OL added to practice roster.

Collaros has not put together two good games back to back all year, so the odds are really stacked against us.
This works out perfect.
This week - good game - clinch playoff spot.
Next game - bad game - no effect on standings
Eastern semi - good game - win that one
Eastern final - bad game - sneak out with a win because Vaval scores 3 return TDs
Grey cup - good game we win
Easy.

Brazzell also played with teams that weren't the Bombers... and they weren't exactly the glory days of blue bombers football when he was here...
I had forgot that Brazzell was around for years before he came here at the end of his career. His most memorable play to me is running along with Milt on the 105 yard game winner.
Just saw that his son, Chris Brazzell II, plays for Tennessee. Get him on the neg list!

Grey Cup is up for grabs this year, after this weekends games there is no clear cut favourite.
It’s going to come down to who gets hot. Could be anyone (except the riders, they’ve already had their hot streak)

Wheatfall is still better than Mitchell.
Wheatfall is the better deep threat. Mitchell might be more adept at the dirty work in the middle.

Mentioned already but the corners were lights out against Lawler. Kenny getting only 2 of 9 targets is amazing.
Zach was throwing dimes today.
Brady was his usual self.
Really liked Woodbey. He was all over the place.

Well that can't be, I've heard nothing but it's all strevelers fault for sucking the last 2 weeks.
Yup today sure proved that Zach or Strev makes no difference at QB. Strev even out scored Zach 3-1 on TDs

If the review is that quick it shouldn’t count against your challenges

Woods over Korny is a HUGE upgrade
Too bad Parker got hurt. Guy can't catch a break.

That was kinda my point originally, as much as their analytics are saying that the changes will add 60 TD per season, that's less than a TD per game (5.185 points per game), but they didn't take into account the number of field goals that won't be scored, so overall scoring will go down. Even more if you take out missed field goal touchdowns as you suggest.
I think they are using the increase in TDs as a way to try and justify the changes they wanted to make anyway, but they didn't actually do the math. Sure, 60 TDs sounds impressive, but when you break it down per game, the argument falls apart.
It is all made up math so it doesn't really matter, but we don't know specifically what they included or excluded.

I assume if Demski can't go, they add Peterson back on.
Chris-Ike would be the back up plan for Brady.
Razor thin depth on O if you can even call it depth
Brutal that neither of the american DEs that looked great last week get a chance.
Don't know why we need Ayers and Lawson on the roster at all as back ups really.
