Absolutely no reason to lose this one. Go Blue!

This ought to be a good game for Neufeld to tune his game up, so that is probably why the Bombers have chosen to insert him.

I'll take option "B", Alex.

Esks really pleasuring the canine tonight.

Esks showing all the resistance of a bowl of half-set Jello.

TiCats look ready, the Esks- not so much.

With any decent quarterbacking, the Argos woulda won this.

This game is booooorrring.

Unlikely but theoretically possible.

Lets not get carried away- many said that about Fajardo and Vernon Adams.

Agreed. By the 4th grade, they usually can count to 12 consistently.

This is a tad off topic, but it seems to me that last year Wolitarski was catching the ball and then often dragging defenders several yards. That doesn't seem to be as much in evidence this season.

I think that there is the attitude of wanting to win every game that has to be nurtured, so letting up in the home stretch could encourage the "we will win when we have to" thinking.

How dare you denigrate the brave men and women who serve on the front lines of major retail establishments.

Wal-Mart is always looking for greeters.

Wish I could find a reason to pick Ottawa over the Lions.

No to mention the fumbled kick receptions. You can hang the loss on Bray and despite his obvious talents, he has to be on a short leash.

Ottawa has little to trade for Mitchell if it comes to that, apart from draft picks. Given the state of the RBs NI talent, they would be stupid to do that.

Yup.

I would bet that DesJardins might make a play for Nichols as well. Hell, almost any backup in the CFL would be better than that sad duo Ottawa has. That game was worse than bad- it was boring.

As incompetent as the Lions' o-line and coaching is, at the least they have a credible quarterback, although he has to be hurting from all the pounding he has been taking. IF the RBs can pummel him AND Jennings plays the game of his year, Ottawa has a chance.

Should Streveler be playing well and progressing and O'Shea put Nichols in as soon as Nichols is healthy enough it should pose and interesting scenario. Under this scenario, if Nichols plays well and wins, all is well. But, if Nichols struggles and O'Shea does not field Streveler until all is lost, the wolves will be howling. I think that it is a given that Nichols will start as soon as able regardless of Streveler's performance. Like it or not, this is O'Shea's team and responsibility and he will rise or fall on the strength of his decisions. He is a good guy but that gets him no cup rings.

Exume appears to have the speed, physicality and pugnacity. Does he have the discipline, smarts and spidey sense?

Hecht might be good enough for this year, but if so, just barely. The only things saving his butt are his passport and a darned good set of DBs around him. It would be very good to replace him with an upgraded NI.

And will probably still go unnoticed.
