I agree... can go with Miles or Briggs as an emergency fill in for Bighill... Wild is a great teamer but Flanders adds more to the offense than Wild does ST...

You could see the Als had a clear "strategy" for tackling Harris in that game... it's called the helmet to knee strategy... not surprising from that team...

there's nothing wrong with the rule... just how it is being applied... if you saw the Clay Matthews tackle in the Packers/Vikings game... it was about as perfectly textbook as you can get...

I don;t think Nichols' ego is the problem here... it would be O'Shea's unwillingness to use his second QB more... also, there was never really a time when this was a common practice... a few teams have tinkered with it over the years, but that's about it..

I don't disagree with everything you say... but you say that you want whats best for the Bombers... while simultaneously saying that you want the Bombers to lose... realistically if you wanted what was best for the team you would be cheering for Coach O'Shea's success...

ummmm.... all of your examples made the playoffs.... @17to85 said 9 wins gets you in the playoffs... you just proved his point...

I think it's been noted that the only two people making decent money in Wpg radio are (were) named Wheeler and Burpee... but I am still surprised by the amounts... I would've guessed low 6 figures...

disagree... you're saying you would put Chris Williams in ahead of either Dressler, Adams or Thompkins??

I've never really liked this "analysis" of a QB... bceause this really applies to every QB... get pressure on them and they can't play their game... look at the history of the Pats losing big playof games with Brady at QB and I guarantee the common denominator in those games is the other team getting to Brady...

I actually agree with you... it didn't look like he was going to make it either way... but he still looked pretty goofy just stutter-stepping for no apparently reason...

this was such an ugly game... but man did it feel nice to finally get a W at the new stadium!... especially against the greenies...

He's 31 years old now... 32 in October... safe to say you don't bounce back as quickly when you reach that mark...

thanks... this time it makes sense! 😃 I'd have to think it's a little of both... while I agree with you that BC and Toronto are not exactly world beaters on offense... our defense held both teams in check in the second half of a back-to-back... which is hard to do... also of note, I'm blaming the BC loss on offense... I thought the D held us in and gave us every chance to win...

I think it goes to show you how much the talent surrounding him can affect he play of the raw QB...

this is saying the exact same thing two different ways...

This is exactly what I do... it's about a 15 minute walk from my friend's place... and a season's worth of parking only costs me a case of beer or a nice bottle of something...

Not a coincidence Sask and Edm are heavily penalized teams while Calgary and Winnipeg are not... just look at the way Maas and Jones conduct themselves versus O'Shea and Dickensen...

I don't think the LB coach should be on the hook for a loss... 😉 I'm being facetious... you must have forgot they brought in Noel Thorpe as DC this past off-season...

This is exactly it... people who don't like the U of M location suddenly forget the traffic jams and waiting it took to get out of Canad Inns...

MBT put up a pretty nice stat line... I guess Ott went into garbage time a little too early.... Also, we no longer have the most embarrassing lead give away of the season... so there's that too...

just to clarify... I'm assuming D'haquille is Duke??

I'm certainly no Hurl apologist... but appears they are used in completely different ways,,, Hurl was given an "assignment" that seemed to attempt to hide or mask his inadequacies... where as Bighill seems to be given free range to do what he feels is best (for the most part)... the difference is Bighill can do it and is great at it... Hurl.... well.... not so much...

sounds like this interview was in English (obviously)... then translated to French for La Presse... only to be translated back using google translate for this article... why not just use the original transcript??

Sounds like Johnny Manzeil will be starting this week... per CFL, TSN, basically every sports outlet in the country...
