I know i said id never cheer for Toronto over a Western based team but... Ricky Ray is just so much less of a ****** than BLM... So this one time.... 
 
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgos

we've had this discussion way too many times...Neufeld is good at everything except staying healthy. Somehow his inability to stay on the field became "he sucks", which just isn't true, nor has it ever been.

After week 20
Bye, bye - Hamilton, BC, and Montreal
Expect the Heisman Trophy winner @JManziel2 to sign in Hamilton this off-season - @rickzamperin #CFL #Ticats
John Hodge - 3downnation - The Bombers have now started three Canadian offensive linemen in two consecutive games with Patrick Neufeld filling in for an injured Travis Bond at left guard. This is likely a sign of things to come for a Winnipeg club that should look to start three national hogs next season. Neufeld, who has been excellent in place of Bond, is a pending free agent — should he leave Winnipeg this off-season, expect 2015 second round pick Michael Couture to take over his spot in the starting line-up.
?‍?Interesting - Edmonton has beaten every team in the league...except Winnipeg 
?‍?Santos-Knox is fitting in quite nicely..quite a find.
CFL - Friday wire-to-wire defeat was also the first time in 52 contests the Stampeders have not led.
?‍?How do spell trouble? Z_y_l_s_t_r_a       Double trouble - injury to Matt Nichols 
Vanstone - Due to an accumulation of snow on the east-side roof, 800 spectators were relocated in Mosaic stadium. 
Still trying to prove something?  Jones “The tough guy look...”

?‍?Guess they’re not over the SMS
Stampeders.com - “I told the guys,’’ reported Bo Levi Mitchell. “Who’s going to remember this —— when we win the Grey Cup?    “Who’s going to remember these three losses?
Darren Cameron - Update from ticketing - “tickets are moving like crazy”... not surprising and awesome to hear! See you Sunday for the Western Semi-Final!  ?‍?Really?
Ed Tait tells us: The Bombers own a .683 winning percentage in 60 home playoff games (40-18-2). Edmonton is 19-29 (.396) in road playoff games.
Nevis was credited with just one tackle, but he drew three holding penalties with his push and was part of a defensive effort that limited the Stamps to 158 yards net offence and held battering-ram running back Jerome Messam to just 30 yards on 12 carries and zero yards on three receptions.
“Drake’s an animal,” said Okpalaugo. “He’s so strong. You should see him tossing people in practice, man.”
?‍?I’d like once again, to voice my support for Andrew Harris as the team’s most outstanding player. Rushing leader and new record for receptions? Most receptions in the entire league? Wow! But I didn’t have a vote.

?‍?Under the category of not likely... 
 
Drew Edwards - Close to a half dozen players who spoke to the Spectator say they believe Austin’s return would significantly reduce the likelihood of several prominent free agents-to-be re-signing with the club as well the team’s ability to recruit players from around the league. They also believe it’s unlikely June Jones will return if Austin remains in his current role.
(Speedy (Banks) has been telling everybody that he won’t re-sign if Kent is still around in any capacity,” one player said. “I think some other guys are in the same boat.”)
Caretaker Bob Young - “Where is the love for a coach who took @Ticats to @CFL Grey Cup twice in four seasons?”
“This is just sad.  A cowardly Ticat player, maybe two, complain anonymously to a naive journalist about a former coach.”

yea well I hate the argument that people actually believe a fan's opinion is more valid and accurate then a coach and his coordinators who have been doing this job and playing this game their entire lives..
 
I'd defer to a pro over a couch potato any day of the week, wouldn't you?  I mean, besides the fact they sit, talk, watch and review what these guys do, day in and day out.. versus us who watch, what. 1 game and maybe a practice, if that?
 
the fact I even have to argue this baffles me, honestly.

Agree, I think it may be that LeFevour was more decisive in his decision making process. Davis seemed to struggle with decision and hold the ball too long.
Mind you , LeFevour's decisions were bad, and many throws were not accurate enough,  but he was quick to pull the trigger 
If he can hold back on some of those bad decisions and take off and run, he may do better.

Spoiler alert... No.

We've seen both LeFevour and Davis do much better than this. I, along with everyone else was very surprised that these two didn't take off and run the ball more themselves.  Both of these guys have wheels and can gain some yards and extend plays with their feet. I think it would have opened things up a bit and spread the defence out more. I don't think the play calling was set up for them to succeed.  
If we have to roll with Davis and LeFevour, hopefully Lapo will put in some plays that allows them to succeed.

I would laugh my ass off if I saw this thread on another team's forum. Now I just feel sad...

They don't count. None of them are ex 1st round NFL draft picks.
 
"Coates (not going to scare anyone)"
Our back up Canadian Rec isn't going to scare anyone??? OMG THIS TEAM IS ****!!!!!
And anyone who dumps of Thomas needs to STFU and either relearn or just learn how the CFL works when it comes to CND players. Thomas would be scooped up immediately if released tomorrow.  He makes a significant play in almost every game. FOOOOOR example, against the ticats, he hustled off his block and tripped up Green AFTER he got to the second level. Had he not made that play Green scoots for at least 30 yards and possibly a TD. Thomas made the play and stopped the drive.

Andrew Harris and its not close. Roberts was a great talent...for a  time. Then got traded away because he wasn't producing.
I would have liked to have seen Roberts with the same dedication as Harris.

Harris has dedication, power and smarts. Roberts had incredible talent and the center of gravity of a personhole cover which made it very difficult to tackle him. Had Roberts done some even average self-care, he would have been in the George Reed legend category.

Well, not being hung over for the Grey Cup would have been nice...

Translation:  A lot of our wins have been just luck.  Give it a rest mate.  Enjoy the feeling of 10-3.

?‍?Win one for the Medlock..
?‍?Randle...film study...pick six.
?‍?Love Matt Dunigan’s line with tongue in cheek. “Clearly Winnipeg needs a new kicker.”
?‍?When was the last time a Bomber team held a team to O points in a half?
?‍?0 - That’s the same number of intelligent comments I found on the Riders’ site.
?‍?I saw a player make a highlight reel catch for an incredible TD in tonight’s game. One-handed. That player was a Bomber. That player was new 1000 yard receiver Darvin Adams.
?‍?It’s hard to believe we kept that Edmonton receiver group in check from A to Y. We didn’t do so well on Z
?‍?What I like about this current Bomber team is; when the opposing team scores an important TD or FG, this team responds. That’s huge!
?‍?Bombers shouldn’t go anywhere without their Walker..
?‍?You know TDs scored with seconds left before the half are extra special. Right Matt and Clarence? Happy Birthday Clarence! (Sept 29) 

?‍?‘Tis nice to lead from start to finish in the last 6 games.
?‍?Coates has arms..and soft hands. Nice pivotal reception on that drive.
?‍?He, of the hard to pronounce last name had a decent game with 3 tackles and a sack. Tristan Okpalaugo. There, I pronounced it.
?‍?Heath, flirting with the int again. 
?‍?Santos-Knox is evolving. 
?‍?D pressure was constant but not overpowering. Johnson seemed like he was still a scratch last night.
?‍?Jeffcoat was menacing. 

?‍?Allowing just 19 points vs that offence? I’ll take it.
?‍?Nichols 112.94 efficiency rating.
?‍?Another clean game by the boys.
?‍?Did you see? Another hands to the face penalty? But it wasn’t by us..
Darrin Bauming - Ryan Lankford can throw... and punt... and return kicks. #Bombers
?‍?Now I know what below average kicking looks like. I don’t like it.
?‍?And once again, we rule, catching teams with 13 men on the field. Good on us for spotting this and quickly snapping the ball..
?‍?I didn’t appreciate the fact that the TSN took so long to acknowledge Adams as a 1000 yard receiver when they were flaunting Edmonton’s grand receivers most of the night.
?‍?I can practically feel BC’s angst over what happened in the standings on their bye week..
?‍?Sharing the love..
?‍?Win number 10. And, it must be the 10th different way we’ve won a game.
Darrin Bauming - Darvin Adams joins Andrew Harris and Clarence Denmark with TDs tonight — all three continue to lead the #Bombers' with 7 TDs on the season.
?‍?I didn’t really notice but someone mentioned that Medlock might be kicking with his right leg tonight...
?‍?Reilly is always dangerous as a QB. The Bombers somehow, made him look less dangerous tonight.
?‍?I PVR’d the game on 2 different channels to prevent exactly what happened to the game - missing over 8 minutes of the 1st Q due to TSN staying with the earlier game. Funny, they didn’t do that for the Ottawa game..
?‍?Secondary thoughts...They’re looking good. New strategy?
?‍?Bombers need Andrew Harris. Eskimos kneed Andrew Harris. There’s a difference you know.
?‍?It was nice carrying a 7 point cushion into the game for the tie breaker. Sure am glad we didn’t need it.
?‍?Bombers send the Eskimos and 30,524 home unhappy. Job complete!
?‍?Love Harris’s crab-crawl TDs! What balance..
?‍?How do you spell legitimate? B o m b e r s
?‍?How do you spell relief? R a n d l e
?‍?Were we not 2-2 to start the season?
?‍?Still in disbelief that we have a legitimate QB
?‍?A great turning point was not made by any player... “The officials did a good job of conferring to change the call on the field to a touchdown, which allowed the play to be reviewed and upheld by the command centre.”
?‍?Who cares if Edmonton ended up with 436yards of net offence?
 

 

Thank God I'm not the only one who rolls my eyes at the True North chant. I hate it at Jets games, it's beyond stupid to yell it at Bomber games.

I hate the True North thing even at Jets games, so at Bombers games, it's just that much worse. Idiot sheeple.

If we're airing our grievances that's my big one.

In fairness, you've been exhaustingly negative lately about the management team.....there's a yin and yang around here...

All I know is Lefevour went to the Argos and within the first month of joining the team he put up 300 yards in his first game and nearly the same in the 2nd against the Blue...  with 4 td passes.  
The guy may not be a world beater but he's light years better then the crap like Boltus, Brohm ,   Brink,  and Goltz.....

"Dear Canada: I am so sorry" by Rod Black's Mom.

The entire defense should be licking its chops at the prospect of facing a third string QB. At home with the crowd behind 'em, no less!
My biggest concern is Powell. The front 7 will have to be at its collective best to contain him.

I expect our D will give up a couple of big plays but otherwise play well and keep things close. If we go ahead early Lapo will be more conservative (if thats possible)  At the end of the night... We get another W.
Hopefully they correct those big gains we give up every game. Our D line should be able to harass their 3rd string QB all night.
