Are there people really clamouring for replacement level players like Fox and Garbutt?? Vaughters and Adams aren't massive improvements... I want better players than what we have now... not slightly worse

Griffin takes a lot of snaps... it's a testament to his abilities that you don't notice him much.... DBs, OL... when you don't notice them, that usually means they're playing great

probably too early to say... but maybe we gotta hope Elgersma ends up being the real (CFL) deal...

I would like to see some of these changes as well... was hoping to have a reasonable discussion about it... I like all your proposed changes but I'd like Allen at S and move Parker to corner... either way, I'd like to see Bridges out... also Griffin for Kramdi can't be necessarily a one for one... would have to have a Canadian DL or LB out there every rep... I also don't think Kramdi is a major problem area... For sake of discussion... When Kelly and Makonzo are healthy, I'd like to see them at 1 and 2 on the S depth and run an all-import DL... Parker could go to corner... could even sub in Shay (who is supposedly pro ready) for some reps on D... And for the love of god, let's just get our offseason additions in the lineup... K Wilson and T Jones have been average to above average... J Jones cannot possibly be a downgrade... Even if Logan and Vaval are both healthy, then we need to try Logan in the role he was brought here for... and let's just get Mitchell in the game... if he seriously is too clueless to play after months of being here, just release him already...

unfortunate situation... but file this under "**** happens"... thankfully the injury wasn't worse...

Edge rusher Warren Peeples is on the Bombers neg list... we're all always saying we need more Peeples and one new Person on the DL...

Mitchell still not making the active roster is concerning... did they not evaluate his skills and abilities at all... or did they assume he would beat out Wheatfall for that spot?? I'm happy Person is finally getting a shot.... hopefully he'll get a bunch of snaps and make an impact... still concerned we haven't seen J Jones yet... seemed like a solid addition and we have refused to use him... Kyrie Wilson is still great when healthy and of course he manages to stay healthy when there are as good (or better) and much younger options on the squad...

Starting?!? 😂 It's a lock!

I know we all hate the riders... but it's ridiculous to suggest Cgy is a better team than Sask right now... maybe that changes by year end... but not today... unless you think the Bombers are the 3rd best team 🤔

I hate to pile on but this comment is just incorrect... Bighill is almost universally loved for his time in Wpg... he's one of the key reasons we broke the drought and won back-to-backs... we just don't want him on the field any more... it's plain to see his best days are long gone... all the best to him in Calgary.... I look forward to when he signs a one-day contract and retires a Bomber so we can properly celebrate him here

I could be thinking of a different one... I'm sure Awe had over the top celebrations on several insignificant plays

was that the one where he celebrated like he had just made a game-winning play... even though Peterson got the first down... and they were down by two scores in the 4th quarter... what a clown... 🤣

it's funny to laugh at how ridiculous his write up is... but it is pretty embarrassing that he is writing this for a national website... which happens to be the official page of the league... if he was writing this on a Saskatchewan site, there would be no issues with his homerism...

Quick recap... he starts by saying the Bombers D has started the season great against a BC team without Rourke... I guess he forgot the blowout in week two... the proceeds to say the Elks suck at everything and Bombers are good at everything... so naturally, his pick is the Elks 😂

was it last season?... I believe Ham vs Mtl... Hamilton player clearly fumbles the ball... without a shadow of a doubt... somehow the runner is called down and confirmed via replay... that's probably the worst call I've ever seen in the CFL

I kinda love the juxtaposition of Rourke being a really good QB (CFL needs good young QBs right now)... but also getting his ass kicked by the Bombers every time they play.

a little pre-mature to say Sterns and Mitchell haven't worked out... it's only been one game... I don't know what Mitchell's deal is but maybe when he finally does get into a game, he looks great and never loses his spot

I actually thought he was kind of just a throw in because we really liked the global DE... turns out we may have got the two best players in that deal I would agree with you... even the most ardent of complainers (you know who you are) weren't saying "this team sucks, we're going to lose"... but rather "a few tweaks could make this roster even better"

There's so many players that had a great night last night... it's hard to single out just three... there are three guys I want to mention, maybe not necessarily as the "top 3" stars, but just guys I think deserve a shoutout... 1- Kennall Randolph (I'd like to start the petition to call him Kenny Randy) - Thank you for your service Mr Lofton, but you are no longer required... we still love the years Yoshi gave us but he's dead to us in green... Randolph is the future and current starting tackle of this team... whether he remains on the right or takes over for Big Stan on the left 2 - Mike Ayers - He just makes plays... I'll admit Kyrie Wilson played well last night... but I hate that it's at the expense of Ayers... he should be an every down defensive player 3 - Keric Wheatfall - I don't like to anoint anyone too early... but it's looking like we really have something in this guy... could be a stud for years to come.... A million other players also played great last night... Strev, Peterson, The entire Oline, Demski, Jones, Kramdi, Vaval, Holm

so you're saying it's a Buck thing? 😁 Also, looking at the depth chart, they listed Cdn Riley Picket at FB and American Zander Horvath as the back up RB... being that he's listed at 6'3, 230... he could be confused as a FB

Is this the first ever palindrome to play in the CFL??

How many high schools did you o to that you can't remember where he subbed at? lol I actually think Suitor is perfectly fine... as long as it's not a Riders game I agree... but that mullet has to go... mullets "coming back" is officially the worst trend that has ever happened.... socks and sandals being a close second

If Jake and Schmek want to sit out... like permanently... that would be just fine

The first line of the article says "The Blue Bombers made a move that surprised some fans"... either I have no idea what the casual fan thinks (due to getting all my info here) or the media is completely clueless... I come to that conclusion also referencing the pre-game show from pre-season game one where they were talking about vets who might be at risk of either being cut or losing playing time... and Ed Tait went on to say (paraphrasing here) "a lot of fans will be shocked to hear this but I think Jake Thomas will start getting less reps this year"... Do most casual fans think he's a stud? PS... this is not meant to start more conversation about JT... more about casual fans

I'm not sure how it looks ratio wise... or if JY is planning to run a lot of 3-man fronts again... but I think the ideal game day DL includes Willie, Vaughters, Person, Bailey, Lawson, Adams, and Woods... now that list is impossible because it excludes Thomas... but we'll have to see what they go with
