  However, given his abduction by aliens about 6 weeks ago - with now no soft zone, and multiple  DL sets and blitzes.............may have to reconsider.  

I swear it's like he just realized Bighill was in there instead of Hurl.  The options available by having a smart AND athletic MLB have helped this defense more than anything else this year.

[Who would we rather?]

I prefer Calgary first, then SK.  I want cocky Dickenson to over think everything, and BLM taking chances after they lose 4 in a row.  2 bye weeks with no pads practices for the Rudders, yes please. 

I doubt BC helps us out though.  

[TC Report: Day 6]

Re: Depth Chart

 

Shows 9 starting nationals on depth chart.  I don't see us using 2 national linebackers for most plays, so that brings us down to 8.  Maybe only one national receiver this year?

[Around the CFL Offseason Discussion]

@PentonKirk: ESPN reports former #Bombers DE Phillip Hunt will sign with the Detroit Lions. He had been talking to #CFL teams.

Hunt may have been faster off the line than even his buddy Odell, more powerful too.  Not sure how the injuries have affected him, but yeah would have been nice to see him back in town. 

[Bombers trade Cory Watson to Saskatchewan]

2011 seems so long ago now, I suppose 3 season is a long time football wise.  I thought Watson was the next Canuck superstar back then.  Goodluck in SK Mr. Watson.

I'm sure the a lot of people here knew about this site.  It didn't seem to take off.  There is some good history posted here on the Bombers. Whoever 'Stats Junkie' is, he/she is a true superfan. 

[Hall most likely to be new DC (Now Official)]

A common complaint from Rider fans about Hall was 2nd and long conversions.  I think Randle and Legget will help with that a bit, I like our personnel in the secondary more than SK's last year.

Regardless, still much better than 2nd and 2 after a routine 8 yard run on first down.  

[Riders release; Bombers sign Dominic Picard]

Starting to think Riders may be outside looking in come playoff time.  Juggling payroll big time.

[Bombers restructure Nick Moore's contract]

NIck Moore was the focus of opposing defences at the start of 2014.  I believe he opened things up for Denmark and Kelley when playing.  He gets another year to prove himself IMO.

[Ugly or Wonderful ... your gut hunch for 2015]

Gut says Bombers will be 9-9. I should buy season tickets again. And Willy-Moore will be most dynamic duo in CFL. 

West is very tough division however, and my head is telling my gut not to get my hopes up.     

[Two Riders Charged With Assault]

So does the code of conduct which got Tillman canned apply here?

[Buck Hurt Again]

9 game him.  Let him collect check for rest of season then part ways.
