What is Marc Trestman to do? He can't stand pat or it will be worse than the last game ...

Does he study the Wpg- Hanny game film ... come up with his own version of double tight end formations?

Can he fire up Wilder and make him the primary on 20+ plays? Or does he find a special passing package.

Can he blitz us to death?

Does he bring in QB Bethel Thompson if Franklin doesn't get it done in the first quarter?

It seems on straight smash mouth football we win ... so what is Trestman going to scheme to beat us?

We are not good   at half-time adjustments so how good are we at between game adjustments?

There is a reason back to back sweeps are really difficult ... so what should MOS's strategy be for this upcoming Toronto game?

#Argos head coach Marc Trestman says, after speaking with doctors, they are “reasonably confident” James Wilder Jr. will be ready to play Friday vs the #Bombers. Wilder suffered a leg injury in practice Wednesday. Dexter McCluster (leg) is out.

I hope that if McCluster is on the sidelines, that TSN doesn't constantly pan towards him standing there all game.

Maybe they will instead interview the musical half time show guests who don't watch football but even then still have enough awareness to pause when a team scores a TD as they assumed the PBP guys would of mentioned the play....

There was a bit on Thompkins on 1290 radio yesterday- he sounds like a blue-chip prospect ready and eager to get onto the field. Still, I wouldn't guarantee that O'Shea will not put Lankford in.

The depth chart says Thompkins. 

I haven't seen it mentioned on here but Flanders has been moved to the P.R..  It looks like it's time for him to pack his bag and move on down the road.

yup, Flanders in Rider Green is what we've all been predicting for awhile now.  Of course, he may end up as their QB, not their RB.

Looking forward to seeing Kenbrell "Dude" Thompkins tonight and not just because I took a flyer on him in TSN Fantasy Football. Hoping the team comes out, eliminates the turnovers and puts a beat down on the Argos.

You know with Thigpen, Messam and Mason, not sure they try to land Flanders.

Sir, you are missing what and exceptional DB/HB he would be.

I do lack the visionary abilities of Chris Jones.

Calgary Stampeders 6

Winnipeg Blue Bombers 7

Saskatchewan Roughriders 9

Ottawa Redblacks 9

Hamilton Tiger-Cats 10

Toronto Argonauts 11

BC Lions 12

I believe it was Bauming who tweeted that 2 of the sacks were actually called QB run plays.

Or, think about this...Flanders at center or guard!!

Not surprised by this. Reilly is hard to take down, is slippery and that o-line gets away with a TONNE of holding.

if ricky ray played for the bombers and got sacked  what would it be called?

sack ray bleu.

😫

And some of those are streveler.  and wouldn't have been taken by Nichols if he was playing..

Their game day depth needs him more on the defensive line. You can never dress enough defensive linemen.

I don't think Matt can scramble as good as what we have seen Streveler do......so it's possible if Matt was playing we would have had more sacks on us. 

I could see Flanders going to Edmonton easily...  great hands and better then Gable IMO

Jackson is no slouch as an RB...

Expect a close one - but Bombers have to keep it together and win by 2-3 points this time - another collapse would be worrisome

Great prognostication!   What are your numbers for 6-49?

Looks like the OL will have another 🥩 steak for dinner this week c/o Nichols.

They won with no sack allowed. 👍

So much for being scared of the Argos....
