East turtle derby rages on.

Manziel named chief fireman to extinguish 4 alarm diaper fire that is their team.

Cats running out of opportunities  to prove the Jones/Masoli/Run&Shoot thing wasn't the wrong decision to hitch franchise to.

Dunno if a HAM win means much but a loss certainly does.

Note: Zontar will be in attendance tonight.

I don't blame him..hasn't played in two years and making desperation throws.  What did they expect?

 

I just don't see the hype with him.. Never have.. He was a system QB in college like many b4 him who have come from that same system and failed in the pros. 

Enough with the johnny football hype..it appears over.  I am wondering now if we can beat the cats when we play them.

Ya right.

Manziel looks horrid in the pocket.  I don't think he's completed a pass beyond a quick first read.

Aside from potentially Richie Hall calling bad plays against them, I highly doubt we'll have that much trouble against them.  They'll get reminded quickly that we're not the sad sack Als.

I mean, I'm not saying take Hammy lightly, but let's not forget we hung up 54 on MTL and did it without being gifted 4 picks from a raw CFL QB.  And last time we played Ham, we were going with a rookie.  I also am loving what I'm seeing out of Demski, Dressler and he'll I think Kenbrell should be given a permanent spot on this roster after how he played last week.

You put a guy in at QB after 4 days of practice on a bad team and you expect what? Seriously.....what a stupid decision from the get go. That circus does nothing positive to promote the CFL .......and then that  goes to ESPN......another bone head move.

Dear lord, what a mess in Montreal, and the way Kavis "Clueless" Reed has mortgaged their future, i have no idea how they are going to crawl out of this abyss. Even when we were garbage in the Jim Daley, Mike Kelly, Tim Burke era's, we were never THIS level of excrement. Its truly a shame. They are going to be bad for a long time and the fickle fans in Montreal are going to go bye bye.

I gotta say... the current 47-11 score kind of flatters Montreal here.

We were nearly this bad with Burke.

Ummmm.... That wasn’t a catch.

Time to kneel out the half down 30 points.

The agent was right.  Beyond the picks, what might concern people, is that his mechanics from the pocket looked lousy....and too many passes just floating up there....

Is this your own work or are you getting it from another source?

 

No, not my work, as stated on the first line..CFL.ca provides the info, I just edit it a little. I find it informative and just want to share these facts.

2013 Bombers were more or less on the same level. Terrible team top to bottom. Over the hill vets, no good young talent, QB carasol.. So glad we have an organization worth being proud of

Oh we were bad no question about it, but we didn't go handing over years worth's of draft picks to buy a QB who had never played a down of CFL football.  A total display of mental illness by all management people in MTL.

This is such bullshit.. I actually feel bad for Manziel and the genuine als fans. Throwing him to the wolves without throwing a regular season cfl pass. 4 practices to learn the offence.

kavis reed is honestly a selfish piece of **** and I will be glad when he is done in this league. Humiliating. Johnny’s agent was absolutely right. It was insane

There was so many things wrong with this plan that only a FOOL would have thought this could have turned out remotely well

Mental illness is the best way to make sense of this whole situation, top to bottom 

Had fun .MTL puts on a good game day   Fun atmosphere. Recomend highly. Drank lots.

What about the game? HAM offense looked like well coached, smart and efficient. And that's a long painful commentary on MTL. Not HAM.

The attempts by TSN to pump Manziel’s tires were simply pathetic. Watch the game recap (on cfl.ca), they actually sound desperate. 

Even with the lack of practice, the lack of games played, etc, I thought Johnny would be better than that.

He showed glimpses of what he could do but Matt Dunnigan was bang on. As a QB you fully learn the Defense first before even thinking Offense. It showed on his first throw how right Matt Dunnigan was.

One easy step Montreal can take this week...get a legit freaking kicker.  They are using an import spot anyway, get a guy who can actually get a punt off.

surprising that bede has not had a punt blocked yet.

Although teams seem in general to be staying away from trying to block punts. at least I don't recall seeing many this season.

edit ....just remembered the Bombers blocked one for a touchdown
