Huh, CFL.ca has us at 9th in power rankings... 

The sad part: do we really have an argument to counter that?

What would we counter with? MOS saying Collaros is the best QB? 

No argument. By every measure we have been the worst team in the CFL so far.

We earned that ranking. I’d be slow to move us up if we do win one or two coming up unless it’s blow out wins. 

If we ain’t last who the **** Is. Teams that have scored more than 1 touchdown? 

Riders are 1st at lucky comebacks 😁

And, yet, they can't stop him. 

 

Augustine was a waste, but I'm happy BO is back. Other GMs were prepared to pay him more. 

Agree with this. It should have been Brady and a rookie American to spell him. 
If the American kid performs better, move forward in the off-season. 

 

 

 

Adams is a crazy athlete.

IF he fixed his follow through on his punting mechanics and worked on it he could be a legit punter at the pro level. Dude is nutty. Going to start for us at end as a 290lbs guy, and he played huge reps last week at end. If he dropped 15-20 lbs, he could be the scariest edge guy full time. 

Not a fan of Bridges playing serious reps, he and karamoko were a hot mess last week.

Let Adams launch one during a game!  I'd feel sorry for anyone who tries to run the kicker while he was back there.

I could legit see letting him kick off. Imagine how he kicks with a running start and not needing to go knee to face on follow through. 

Great idea to have a 300 lb guy playing around punting when we’re already down 3 guys in that position group.

Yeah I’m sure it’s a morale builder, but absolutely not the right time lol

No question he's better than Augustine. Not sure he's better than some late NFL cut who we could bring in. I like him, I just would have let some other GM overpay him. 

Generally speaking and dating back to last year.  All the late NFL cuts in the world brought in by other teams have been unable to outperform BO. And they wouldn't be coming in with leadership and Canadian passport. Id be more worried about it if we had paid Ouillette more than half the money we paid BO. The only american runningback really worth spending up to get right now is James Butler. If a good all around runningback who can do it all like Butler and like BO were so easy to find why do teams spend on players like Ouillette?

Yeah people getting hurt punting all the time,look at poor Bob Cameron's short career...🙄

Yes, but he was a punter…. Hamstrings are definitely more vulnerable in non punters…. Never mind one that is 300 lbs.

DL suffer high ankle sprains at a very high rate though, as well as pulled hammies for the big guys. IF you watch his college punts he gets distance but doesn't extend well and looks stiff. Punters, and kickers, do an exceptional amount of work to keep their legs loose enough to kick consistently. Adding that work load to a nose tackle who is already playing the edge, and had some wind issues, isn't a great move.

I get what you’re saying but a  300 pound dude who doesn’t do it all the time, as well as  one of the only good interior DL on the roster right now is a bit different.

we are one more DL injury away from being utterly screwed...we pretty much screwed as is...Wj...Woods...Adams should be our base formation....Ali Fayed if he able to play 60% of reps and is actually impactful can slide outside for some reps...and spell of WJ and Adams....Work in Schmeck for roataion and Samson next...see what the kid can do...Thomas should see the least snaps of anyone and if Samson and Schmeck show they can spell off our last standing studs...then next game they should park him and add a younger guy who can contribute on teams...Basically get Charbeneau back on...Or Kelly if/when he ready...We prob roster Hubert just because tho...,which is a move that is basically of no consequence and likely he stands around most the game...in typical fashion of last few yrs

Man lot of trite bitchin on this website lately, i sure hope the Bombers win if only to slow the hyperbole around here..🙄

a win last week would have been the worst thing in all honesty...would have glossed over...a lot of issues if for only a week, and aslo validated Osh's stupid roster makeup and personell choices, and he would have trotted out the exact same lineup and just been further down the hole we need to claw out of...even tho I wanna win everygame...theres lotsa time left in the season to right the ship and another loss...due to the issues of late may just be the best thing moving forward...as sad as it is to say,

I sure hope they win but it will not stop the hyperbole. We are the worst team in the league so far this season and this team is not making any changes. So, more of the same this week. 

 

I wonder how MOS will enjoy all the booing Friday night?
