Any day in Regina is a good day to win, even with all our rookies out in full force. It’s all a matter of pride.

Today I want to watch (through my radio) three things:

Eric Barrierre at quarterback. I want to see if his credentials have anything to do with the Bomber’s future. I fully expect we will have four QB’s kicking around at season open. He might become the new “lady in waiting”!

Chidi Okeke at right tackle. I want to see if he’s the new apprentice that we are hoping for, that might be a key cog in our Hog Heaven. I expect In a better we will be starting Lofton at RT as the season starts.

Our linebacker schemes. I’m assuming Kyrie Wilson will be one of the two middle linebackers in a basic 4=4=4 defensive structure. Outside of Gauther, I want to see who/what else we can put in those middle two spots. Are they going to take a peek at Brandon Alexander there,  or is he just too small? This is the one place that we look just too skinny. This is THE one big challenge for our new defensive coordinator, methinks...

I don’t care how much the coaches say it doesn’t matter who wins. To me it matters, kind of a lot. Beating the Roughie’s will set the tone not only for our rookies, but for our vets at home too. Preseason does matter for a lot more than just player evaluation.

Yeah he showed good hands and body control. 
 

I’d add Dobson, rivers, schmekel, and smith has been the best of the kr.

With the 4th/5th ol group 

New punter might be cut before the game is over

Yeah him

Have to keep in mind that Wilson and Barrier are playing behind a different line than Collaros and Strev will play behind.

I wish they play him in the backfield...disappointed he hasn't seen touches there barely

OL doesn't cause you to toss the ball into the dirt. Both rook QBs showing nerves.

I’ve watched about 3 minutes of the game and it has pretty much been Winnipeg taking all the penalties. Osh  is probably chewing nails at this point.

No veterans playing on that line... For sure.

I'm so into your head that it's hilarious, Noeller. Even an off the cuff innocent remark upsets you... Take a pill. The blue one.

Blue Chew?

He might be out the door before he finds out he’s cut.
