Bombers acquire Zach Collaros
Agree totally. Collaros seemed to move in the pocket a bit better and attack down field more.

3 stars plus hh 2019 grey cup champions
1. Harris 2. The Jeffs - absolutely dominated the tackles for Hamilton 3. Mike Jones - huge hits and key play to break up that deep pass HH - Hansen for blowing up the blocker and returner on that kick return Bonus stars - O-line ripped some huge holes for Harris and kept the QBs upright

107th GREY CUP - Tiger-Cats @ Blue Bombers
Last drought ended beating Hamilton in Alberta. Let's do it again!

Superstitions
Clearly doesn't matter what jersey they wear... for them to win I'm the one that needs to wear the right combination of Bomber sweaters during the week and on game day. It's worked so far this playoff run.

107th GREY CUP - Tiger-Cats @ Blue Bombers
Looks like Hamilton practiced indoors today, while the Bombers held theirs outside. Is it even that cold in Calgary today?

That ONE win.....that ONE loss
Didn't have a lot of hope going into the game in 2007, but I was there in person and we were in it just enough to get my hopes up. Depressing as hell flight home.

That ONE win.....that ONE loss
Wins - 2001 East Final at home was great. 2011 East Final that was supposed to be the last game at the old barn was a great feeling too. Losses - 2001 Grey Cup broke me. 2007 GC broke me again. 2011 GC numb to the pain didn't even feel that one.

GDT - Stamps @ Bombers
Disagree. The way Grant was brought down was the exact situation the rule is meant to address. Shouldn't matter that the defender got his hand over the shoulder to the front if all of the force is pulling the player directly down. Immediately thought that Grant may have blown his knee out. Not sure I've seen it called more liberally now. Seems to only be called if the player is brought down by the collar (even when pulled forward, which shouldn't be a horse collar at all). Granted I don't watch every game, so could definitely have missed some other calls.

GDT - Stamps @ Bombers
That rule needs to be amended. It's the act of grabbing up high and pulling straight down that is a danger to players. Shouldn't matter exactly where you grab.

Week of Stamps @ Bombers
Fenner is on the 1-game, Rios back to the PR. So, looks like Rios benched, Fenner hurt.

Bench Streveler Again
That would be the best plan. Get everyone some reps before playoffs.

Day Before GDT: Larks @ Bombers
Re: Lucky. I read that when Adams was sitting out this week, Lucky moved to his spot and Bailey played Lucky's. With Adams suiting up, that could mean Lucky sits this week.

Week Of: Bombers @ Asshats
Love Alexander at safety. Will be nice to have someone that can cover play safety.

Regular Season Bomber News
Great analogy. It's just awful to watch.

Looking ahead to the Banjo Bowl
Miles did a pretty good job after Rempel went out. Not sure if there's another in game backup though
-
Bombers release Chris Matthews
I noticed that too. Thought it was odd for sure.
-
Bombers release Chris Matthews
Very disappointing. Hopefully this means another receiver is on the way because it's not like the guys on the PR have shown much.

Andrew Harris suspended for 2 games

It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
Two hands on the ball, receiver needs to catch that. Lots of guys catch balls and get hit every damn game.

It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
18/22 for 177, would have been 20/22 with 220 and TD pretty easily if Woli and Matthews catch those balls. Agree totally that Nichols needs to throw to his receivers more vs just dump offs to Harris. Lapo doing him no favours calling for run on just about every first down, leaving second in obvious passing situations every time.

3 stars plus HH stumped the stamps
Grant - obviously Harris - tough 100 yard game Sayles - INT, sack, couple of BS penalty calls HH - Hallet with the fumble recovery, maybe could have scooped and scored but focused on just getting the ball.

GDT-Stumps @ Bombers
That complaint out of the way. Good to get the win. Grant looks like a keeper. D-line had good pressure and caused a couple turnovers.
-
GDT-Stumps @ Bombers
Awful offensive play calling. Draw on the QB draw on the goal line with Nichols in? Sure, it's not expected but not likely to succeed either. Wildcat with Harris? He's obviously getting the ball and running. Two games in a row that he's tried that with a fumble and a procedure as a result. Where were the screens? Nice to see a couple deep shots, if only Matthews and Woli caught them. Agree totally with Suitor (ugh), Nichols is playing not to throw picks. Needs to get back to earlier in the season when he was attempting more than 2 passes down field a game.

Pregame talk: Patriots North come to town
Excited to see Grant on the returns. With 8 return TDs in college, his highlight video is something else.
