  1. Honestly, I'm not sure of some of the roster decisions, I don't get taking Collins out, but maybe Cole has shown well in practice and they want to give him a shot to see if he can take Peaches spot, Johnson obviously hasn't really worked out as a DE just yet, lots of hype for him going all the way back to Florida but really hasn't done much. Maybe Justin Cole comes in and makes an impact? Hard to say. Turner and Anderson for that matter played pretty well vs Toronto, Kept harris in check all game, not much O put up by the boatmen really, was a special teams error and fumble that really did us in. Gordon? I dunno, have only been to 1 game so far and he wasn't playing so i don't know what to think there but i like the idea of more speed on O, JFG, god love him and all but... not the fastest guy out there, read something, not sure who said it, believe it was anon but... a CFL coach said bombers are easy to defend against because they lack team speed, Getting Moore,Denmark,Gordon and Veltung out there at the same time might help that team speed out, Gordon hasn't done much really but then again, i don't know if he's getting open or not, maybe he is and the QB just isn't looking his way, it's tough to tell when you aren't at the game. Simmons? I think he's being hyped up lots, Do i think he's good? Sure but.. he wasn't dressing with Calgary for a reason, maybe he's not as good as some make him out to be, i get that decision actually, he's learning a new D and yeah that takes some time... maybe he just hasn't impressed in practice even? I don't know. I don't think he's gonna be this game changing LB that some believe he will be, i think he's gonna struggle and i think that's why he wasn't dressing with Calgary... you also have to test him out a bit here, he left Calgary under not very good circumstances, will he react the same way to not playing this time? I think it's kind of a test to see how he reacts but more so i think he's just not ready to play yet... Peach? That's a Hall decision i'd imagine, Collins is a hall decision i'd imagine, Simmons probably is too. It's tough to say who makes the decisions tho, i'm not in the room, no idea... but, i would suspect that most of the D decisions are made by Hall, just like how last year they were made by Etch.
  2. Simmons Collins are probably hall decisions. Simmons learning a new D. Takes time. Still feel he's gonna be a big bust because of all the hype but those 2 are probably hall decisions
  3. Cuz they scratched Nate Collins. Not sure he got many game reps last week tho and could say the D had their best game.
  4. Just was tweeting 18 hours b4 his death. How did he die. Suddenly I guess. RIP
  5. Scheif a 60 point center paid as much as a 25 point one? Try again really. Trouba gonna have to put up way more points if he wants 8 million. He's good but not one of the best In the league
  6. So you can sign him to a new deal later
  7. 2 of Hamiltons 3 losses are to Montreal. They have the ticats number.
  8. Always so positive. That opinion tho means very little. Bombers could easily win 5 games. Seriously. They aren't gonna go 2 and 8 to end the year. Probably 8 or 9 wins is likely. What is the Bombers record without Willy again...... Irrelevant really.
  9. TROUBA = 7 X 5.5 MILLION SCHEIF = 8 X 4.5 MILLION HUTCH = Dunno. Depends on his year big time. LOWRY = Bridge deal. So 2 x 2.5 ARMIA = Dunno. No comment. Need to see him play first. If does nothing this year I'd give him a 2 way 1 year deal. The rest besides Cormier MacWilliam and Melchiori will get AHL deals. Those 3 tho, well it's time to **** or get off the pot really.
  10. Always so positive. That opinion tho means very little. Bombers could easily win 5 games. Seriously. They aren't gonna go 2 and 8 to end the year. Probably 8 or 9 wins is likely.
  11. Calgary doesn't seem to let 'personal conduct' get in the way of talent at the draft... D'Aguilar, Smith, Durant - these are top talents that fell to Calgary because of 'issues'... Huff is confident enough in his culture to draft these guys They have a pretty clear strategy - if there's a standout talent, trade up to go after him, other take BPA and gamble on BPA/NFL type in the third round or third pick I can't explain Ameet Pall of course, ha. Mack, I think, tried this strategy but just couldn't quite succeed D'Aguilar is nothing special. Not sure who smith is and Durant has done nothing so far. Should probably use better examples cuz really those are 3 special teams guys right now and that's about it.
  12. They have also played 1 more game than wpg and BC have they not?
  13. Why pretend Montreal didn't beat Hamilton with Higgins as coach like 4 5 weeks ago?
  14. Just saying but Montreal also beat Hamilton earlier in the season with Higgins as coach. Guess it tells you its not as much about the coaching as it is about the players on the field. Als regardless who tge coach is own the ticats. 2 of 3 ticat losses are to the als 2 of 4 als wins are against the ticats
  15. Can you even compare the CAL Murphy Era to today. The rules have changed. The game has too. Not sure if bringing up those bomber teams of the past has relevance to the cfl of today. Different time and Era really.
  16. Pretty much. Too bad we don't play them again tho.
  17. A good oline is better than a good d line. Montreal looked very good tonight. That D has always been good and the O looked much better. Ticats D line looked gassed on the als winning fg drive
  18. He's played guard a bit and looked pretty decent
  19. Don't like that rule but should have been for sure
  20. 2013? Watman. 3 or so redshirt NCAA guys who we would have had to wait for. And Jones? Who is trying the NFL. Hindsight is interesting but I'm sure ppl would have been more pissed if we took one of the redshirt NCAA guys. Jones was never an option it sounded like and regardless if we took him wouldn't be on the team right now anyways. Not sure who the 6th is? Bergman who was taken late in the draft? Albright? Taken late. Not sure who the 6th guy is exactly
  21. The arkells are pushing for it. Who they are I have no IDEA
  22. Seems to lack the character the Jets look for in players
  23. Cato throws lots of picks. That's his problem right now. Teams have figured him out too.
  24. Gonna have to wait and see
  25. Not disagreeing with this at all .. wasn't the best draft class all around .. but given that we didn't hit on a single player (outside Fitzgerald who played a handful of snaps for us) .. it's particularly painful. Yeah, you always wanna try to get at least 1 guy hopefully more who pans out, that draft was certainly not one of those ones that's for sure. However with that being said, IF IF IF Mulumba say comes north next year or the year after and is a difference maker, well... who knows, Bilukidi too. Those 2 could change things really, not expecting them anytime soon tho.
