Wanna-B-Fanboy Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 1 hour ago, TBURGESS said: We gave them a beat down this week. No doubt about it. That doesn't change my point. They take action when they lose 2 in a row. We don't take action even when we lose 4 in a row. You seem to piss and moan a lot when we are losing, piss and moan when we are winning... Piss and moan when only beat teams with a sub .500 record.... piss and moan when we beat a +.500 team... So what would you do? Who would you fire and who would you bring in? What changes to the starting line up would you make? Floyd and blue_gold_84 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardCoreBlue Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 3 hours ago, JuranBoldenRules said: The Bombers almost recovered two kickoffs in Edmonton kicking into the wind because their returner was standing at the 5 waiting for the ball, which came down at the 30. That's pretty brutal coaching. I agree, but the STC is the least of their worries. I'm skeptical when Mass says relieving Cory McDiarmid of his duties may spark the team.

Booch Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) so obviously he has CFL interest...and why we didn't bring him back based on our lack of receiver out put just baffles the mind We claimed to have no interest and were happy with our guys...Like Lankford and Wshington who we don't really dress or use properly when we do Edited October 1, 2018 by Booch Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not exactly going to be ready to play with 4-7 games left. Who knows what he wanted for money? He's also a free agent. He was god-awful the last season he played here. He could be a difference-maker, or he could play one game and spend the rest of the season standing on the sideline trying to get into CFL/game shape.

We'll see if he can play or not with a half dozen games left for any team. It's not like signing a guy who played this year or even went to training camp this year. If he wanted $15,000/game for the last 4 weeks would you give him that? Calgary is desperate. Yes the Bombers should probably be too, but I don't know how you integrate that guy into a team this late in a way that lets him make an impact. He'll be one hell of a special teamer from his time in the NFL anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on what? Who knows if he was even interested in being here? Too many assumptions to run down the regime. Run them down on a lot better counts.

Booch Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 guys don't sit around on couches these days and do nothing...they are training constantly 24/7 for another shot And it would be easy to integrate a skill set like that in a lineup pretty seamlessly...it's not like he has never played the Canadian game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 If we are going to add, and likely go over the cap, I'd rather trade for someone who has been playing. Too much risk pulling someone in at this point who hasn't played in a very long time and really hasn't played meaningfully in even longer than when he was last on a roster.
