I'm not convinced Bob Dyce has a plan, maybe they could have figured that out 2 years ago if they'd asked him, but the team has been going sideways since they fired Marcel Desjardins. Not that Marcel was a piece of cake, he was roundly hated for being cheap.

3 years of losing might convince Dru Brown to look for a better team to lead.

Leggs seems to be kicking well in the windiest stadium in the league. Sergio is actually pretty smart, he never quite attains perfection, missing the occasional FG or convert every few games strangely lowers peoples expectations and increases their acceptance when he does miss, which was not the case for Leggs. As long as he produces when the chips are down and doesn't cost them a game, he should remain a fan favourite.

Highly unlikely but might be their best chance to get him on the roster, take Sterns off and play Corcoran and bring Cobb on as the backup.

LOL Bombers had two of them in Leggs and Lirim and they chased them out of town, couldn't bring either back now for love nor money. Bomber fans need to find more patience for their kickers!

Lawson looks like a bigger version of Jake, hard to tell them apart if you can't see their numbers well, they play similar styles.

Looked like they were having a helluva lot of fun out there, contrast that with Lions who didn't even celebrate their TD's.

Context.

Yesterday is the perfect example of a before and after moment, jumped from end of the world discussions over roster management, to immense jubilation that everybody was wrong, except the Bomber coaching staff.

Must have cut off the last bit. 😉 "Do you know who I am??? Do you know who I am??? I used to be an NFL QB!!!"

Time to plan Stanley's farewell tour at the end of this season, so they can retain all the good bits for next. Neuf probably done as well, must pay Wallace enough to stay.

Does Kyrie really have to play ST's? Give the old guy a break, he's fragile enough, he can perform very well in certain situations if they manage his work load.

I think Lofton is going to sit when he comes back, Randolph did an excellent job at RT, he has excellent mobility for a big man.

I think that boat just sailed, haven't seen an O-line that good in many years, just what they need to keep Zach safe and handle the CFL's top D-lines. Benefits the running game as well, which is the driver of the Bomber offence, with 3 strong RB's on tap they're going to march at will and be virtually unstoppable, should be well over 100 yds. every game.

There's always plenty of excuses for not playing the backup QB in Wpg, they screwed up when they let Dru Brown play, he showed he was capable and became a starter elsewhere. That wasn't suppose to happen, he was scheduled to linger another year or two as a backup before being replaced by a more promising rookie.

Scott Flagel??? Was good but does not stand out in my mind as one of the all time greats, is he even in the Bomber HOF?

Someone on a podcast mentioned Betts had 6 DT's and 7 QB hurries in that game, so not too shabby. Good test for the OT's this game, they know he's going around the outside, see how fast can they retreat. Use MCI as a last defence guard dog.

The Lions shocked the Bombers with an early season win last season and a butt kicking the year before, both games in Wpg.

That just confirms they weren't well prepared. Same thing could happen this season if Strev goes down again and they don't bring in an experienced vet to replace him or prepare Wilson properly with sufficient game time. 3 times the Bombers have been in a playoff situation without a plan B QB, they dodged it once when they traded for Zach, the other 2 times they failed to respond.

The biggest mistake was not having a reasonable backup QB prepared and ready to go behind Zach, still haven't heard a valid reason Dolegala was not used. No different than any other position, have to anticipate injuries will occur and be ready with next man up.

Not necessarily, notice how a lot of receivers shine in pre-season playing against bewildered DB's new to the CFL, having success against experienced DB's is a whole different matter, that takes grit. We'll see if he continues to shine or fades to invisible, he has an advantage tonight as unlikely Strev ignores him as Zach might choose to do.

I wouldn't panic, they have 4-6 games to sort out the roster, pending injuries. I'm sure all 4 receivers fighting for the two open spots will get a second look, who cares if they extend TC competition into the season if they can afford it, and decisions made are not written on stone tablets.

It's an O'Shea team so ST count big, those extra LB's are on the roster to help Mike Miller win his running street brawl.

They have the cap space to abuse the hell out of the 1 game IR this season, they can use it till real injuries crop up and the roster sorts it's self out as it usually does. Might need it later on to pay Randolph or Vanterpool and keep them off the PR once Lofton returns, if the O-line does not suffer any more injury setbacks.
