Garbutt has had the occasional flash... but nothing near the consistency of Jeffcoat... I agree that's it's nice our secondary can play well without a pass rush... but it bothers me to think how good the D could be if we had consistent pressure on the QB

to me, it kind of sounds like he's admitting the label is accurate...

not too lazy... just have other things to do 😉.... still find it odd that it's not on the Bombers transactions page https://www.bluebombers.com/transactions/

true but that news is only a couple days old... would be understandable if it wasn't updated yet... Person was apparently added to the roster nearly two weeks ago... has any media ever mentioned him? Tait or DT? Can anyone confirm he's actually joined the team?

interesting that Jason Person is listed to our PR on the CFL transaction page on Sept 19... yet nothing on the Bombers website anywhere...

He did almost lead a Grey Cup winning drive against, arguably, a better secondary in the 2021 Grey Cup... key word, "almost"

yeah but don't you know the third year option isn't really an option at all... the team can only offer a slight pay increase... 😉

I think you mean that tenure and birth certificate are both in Woli's favour...

Here's how I predict the final standings: Wpg 11-7 BC 10-8 Sask 8-9-1 Edm 7-11 Cgy 0-18 (or something similar to that)

I agree... I'm not sure he's at an all-star level... but he is turning into a very, very good football player... no doubt there are some guys on the D that we need to move on from... Kramdi is definitely not one of them... there's a role for him on my team any day While we're on the topic... after re-watching the game... really noticed Edm DBs #15 and 16 were abused all night long

obviously it didn't matter... but it couldn't have been more obvious down by contact at the one or even half yard line... makes you nervous about the CC when it really matters...

That fact that’s he regional doesn’t and shouldn’t matter… I have no doubt in my mind if @DTonOB got called into emergency duty to call a bombers game on a TSN broadcast… he would be fair and balanced…

Funny that a team can lose by 28 and still have the score looking flattering for them…

Bonds had a rough night last night…. I’m not even remotely close to worried… he’s a stud and he’ll bounce back to his usual shutdown self… most of the damage against him was basically garbage time too

We're in serious trouble if we're down Zach and Strev... so who would give us a better chance to win... the guy with almost no playing experience but maybe better knowledge of the playbook?... or the guy who has like 10+ career starts on his resume... either way, I don't like our chance to go on a run... but you'd have to think Dolegala gives us a better chance to win, should it come to that.

Looking forward a bit... 3-1 in the final four clinches first place (and that's only if BC goes 4-0)... absolutely insane considering the start to the season... I remember talking to my season ticket buddies early in the year and we were disappointed about the prospect of no home playoff game... now we hold the cards to host the WF again

Adamson was the last pick in the 4th round... the next 8 guys that went after him were Wesly Appolon, Woodly Appolon, Riley Picket, Ryth-Jean Giraud, Joel Braden, Daniel Kwamou, Tristan Fleury, and Jared Beeksma (who had a cup of coffee here last year)... any gems in there?... none of these names really mean anything to me

And on top of that... he's been benched this year... can you really say this guy has had an "outstanding" season when his coaches decided at one point that the team was better off without him playing?

we're basically also doing the same thing to Jake... but for different reasons 😉

completely agree... Biggie announced on social media that he's not done... hopefully the Bombers brass disagrees... if he wants to sign a cheap-ish 1 year deal and sit on the six game all year as a defacto additional defensive coach... I wouldn't be opposed to that

Amazing how much more professional the Elks have become since relieving Jones... They may not make the playoffs after the (potential) back-to-back losses to the Bombers... but they definitely feel like a team that's finally on the upswing in the west

Collingsworst (I accidentally spelled his name wrong and when I went back to review the squiggly line, I felt apt to leave it as is) is the Suitor of the NFL... doesn't provide any insight to the game... just beats home the "storyline" to death Back to the game... I wonder if starting MBT (which I expect them to do) closes the run game down a bit?... with Ford in there, our DL always had to respect the RPO... now they know MBT is no threat to run

Jones isn't really that young... he recently turned 29... but he's a pretty decent MLB option for at least the next year or two

Reminds me of that sequence in the second (I think?) quarter when Edm rattled off 2 or 3 really nice runs in a row… then on a first down the D went tackle for no gain, sack, forced punt…. Ugly start to the drive, nice finish

IMO, overall a net positive: Stanley > Vanterpool Wheatfall > Johnson Wilson > Bridges MCI < Woli Dolegala < Strev As others have mentioned... the only thing I'm disappointed in is not finding a way to get Adams on the roster... I feel like the DL played it's best with him in
