I believe Pat Delmonaco is destined to be..... the next......Bob Wylie!

He had time but Mitchell has happy feet like Willy now has. Willy has an excuse as the Bomber OL isn't as good as Calgary but Mitchell? He rarely gets sacked or even touched. Tonight he looked like he was having trouble finding open receivers. Probably because the Esks have very good downfield coverage and this is the reason Willy had so many 2 and outs last week. If there's nobody open it's kind of stupid to throw the ball and hope something good will happen. I think the best strategy in this situation is to follow the Argos with their dink and dunk timing routes. Very hard to defend against that offence once the QB and receivers get their timing down, it may not be pretty but it moves the ball. Marcel needs to adjust his game plan to be able to compete with the Western teams or his *ss will be in the hot seat next off-season.

Can't blame Willy for that. Willy may be the best passer in the West but he's going to have to start moving the pocket around to buy himself time. Time for Marcel to go back to school and come up with some variations to his game plan.

Both Jones and Craighead injured in this game..

Reilly makes some awful dangerous and dumb throws, he's not very good in regard to his decision making. Trying to do too much.

Calgary seems to be able to hold off the EE pass rush fairly effectively, maybe one or two sacks so far on Mitchell. Their O-Line seems to be light years ahead of the Bombers and they're playing with one rookie and two second year players and all three are Canucks!

I was thinking Reyn Davis but I guess he only covered the Jets, he was another great FreeP reporter.

No doubt but win or lose EE has proved they're for real. My confidence in the Bombers making the playoffs fair and square against the West is diminished but they're still going to catch the crossover.

Lavertu is looking good.

Right! Corrected.

Best game of the year so far. Too bad ESPN couldn't have picked this one to televise.

God God. What the hell was that? I thought Jones was a smart coach not just big balls.

Not likely to happen but I would like to see the Bombers trade Grigsby to Sask. for Allen, he's a bigger back and has the power to compliment Cotton well. Win/Win for both teams.

Where did they put Cotton back on the one game I.R.?

Nice article on the TSN site regarding the Bombers honouring Cactus Jack Wells and Jack Matheson. Funny I didn't know they had a "Bob Irving Media Centre". WINNIPEG, MB., - The Winnipeg Blue Bombers will honour the late Jack Matheson and Jack Wells on Thursday, two men who made a significant impact upon the Winnipeg Football Club and the CFL through journalism. In acknowledgement for their decades of dedication, the Blue Bombers are naming the press box located in the Bob Irving Media Centre, the Two Jacks Press Box to credit the men and their contributions to the team. "The two Jacks were both esteemed journalists, each a master at his craft. But more than that, they were good men who were admired and respected by everyone who knew them. Many of the journalists covering the Bombers today credit the two Jacks as being the inspiration for their own careers," said Bombers President and CEO Wade Miller. "This is one of many initiatives we are undertaking to recognize individuals who have made an impact on the Football Club." John Hampson "Jack" Wells (1911 - 1999), better known to most as Cactus Jack Wells, was a Winnipeg-based sports broadcaster who covered the Winnipeg Blue Bombers extensively during his illustrious career, which began in 1939. Cactus became the play-by-play announcer for Bombers games in 1941 and eventually became the first television voice of Western Division games for the CFL on CBC. Cactus Jack was inducted into the Canadian Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame in 1988. John "Jack" Matheson (1924 - 2011) was a legendary Winnipeg-born sports journalist who covered the Winnipeg Blue Bombers for the Winnipeg Tribune and CJOB radio for nearly four decades. Jack was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 1986. The Jack Matheson Award is annually presented by the Manitoba Sportswriters and Sportscasters Association to a student with aspirations in sports journalism.

These rankings have nothing to do with last years standings and this season Sask. hasn't accomplished enough to be rated above #5.

That's a bit of a shock, if he was willing to sit on the practice roster why didn't we keep him here?

It'll take a cosmic shift to change the game rules and the NFL will lead the way. The CFL will follow along like a dachshund on a leash once those rules have been implemented in the NFL.

If memory serves, EZerins began as a tight end but converted to decent linebacker. Yeah, he was converted to a middle linebacker by Ray Jauch but settled in at outside linebacker where he played the most of his career in Hamilton. Shows how well my memory serves. I see Ezerins is listed in the lawsuit filed by Arland Bruce. Rod Black trivia time. Nick Arakgi's son Jason is playing with the Lions as a backup LB and on special teams. This is the kind of useless detail Rod likes to talk about while he ignores the play that's developing on the field.

Too bad we don't need anymore railroads......hey the oilsands! Joking!!!!!

If IRC the last functional TE the Bombers may have thrown the ball to regularly was Leo Ezerins.

Good one, LMFAO!!!

Can't see it if they're going with Leggett. Looks like Sherman may start again.

Hope they come out of the gate like they did against the Argos. Time for Moore to step up and have a big game after his blunder against Edm. It's up to the offence to get out ahead and stay there, the Defence will take care of the rest. Cut down on penalties and no costly mistakes on special teams and the Bombers have a chance. Glad BC had a good game against the Als as it takes away the Bomber excuse of not knowing what to expect from Glenn and company.

It might help if they went out and found a good TE. I'm not sure what skill set Fitzgerald has other than being invisible.
