It really says something that nobody has bothered with the GDT today. 

Just win baby, **** all the other noise.

Thomas is in the Top 10 worst. he shouldn't be here. He should retire or be cut. he did nothing today except bull rush all game, penterate maybe 3 yards before getting stood up & stopped. That's all he does. Thomas brings nothing to our D. 

Mitchell, Wheatfall, Neufeld, Kolankowski, Corcoran, Streveler, Wilson bring nothing to the O.  Eli and Wallace aren't capable of playing every down.  We basically don't have a single OL who is above average.

Vaughters brings nothing, can't even hold his position so the RB has to run around him like a pylon...at least that would give the rest of the D a chance to flow to the ball.

Jake Kelly and Vaval are total marks if they are on the field on D.  Athletes who have no ******* clue what they are doing.

That's not even getting to the injury list or talking about Bryant and Jefferson who are not even 1/10th of what they were.

This is a bad team.  The fixation on Jake Thomas as if replacing him makes some kind of difference in winning and losing is nuts.

Watching bonfire here, Shnitzer claims Bombers D wasnt at fault. The stat lines would prove it. Harris ,statistically ,had his worst game of the year. 

Honestly Harris wasn’t good this week or last week. 1 TD and 5 FGs. Our O once Zach went down did nothing.

Our D is just alright.  A good to great D turns the ball over and can get pressure with 4.

Hence why Jake should NOT be in there????

The whole DL should be replaced.  Jefferson has had one great game this season.  Doesn't get off the line, trying to read QB eyes.  Vaughters has done basically nothing and is now being run at.  Major off-season mistakes.

I knew we were going to lose when Zach threw that stupid pick at the end of the first half. Mitchell wasn't even being covered and you still go to another receiver. Just insane.

No, it's a trend. The HC plays favourites. Better players sit in favour of guys who aren't as good. Again, I'll bring up Thomas. he's useless & does virtually nothing every game. meanwhile, a player who barely got on the field & played behind Thomas in Miles Fox was a force today for the Cats at DT. Yet when he was here he backed up Thomas. This has happened way too much.

His bread and butter is knockdowns.  The pass rush isn't there, this year.

Willie ,in a rotation ,can still be effective. Don't we have some prospects in house to do that ? Woods? Lawson? Person? etc.....

Fox has been OK for the Ti-Cats, not the one technique we expected.

Fox lived on injured list here and BC.  Woods and Adams had a spot between them in 2024.  Lawson blew his knee out in camp.

Lawson is a good player.  None of these guys are difference makers.  Where are our American star players?  We have camps full of duds 3 years straight.

He picked up a fumble so everyone saw his nameplate.

Are u not watching?

Not a lot of points this game...but no fire

Yeah watching. Our offense shutdown in the 2nd half. Sure our defense isn't great but they held their own. 

Defensive line got gassed in the 2nd half... again. You can survive a bit with Lawson and Thomas, but they need a backup who can help. Kornelson ain't it.

Yeah it's true but honestly without the refs help they give up maybe 14 points this game. Younger clearly has the game plan of giving up the underneath stuff. I don't like it. I wish we had more pressure along our d line. But that's pretty much what we've come to expect at this point. An offense worth their salt wins that game. Our o line sucks, our receivers are beyond meh. Our QB was injured.

Sask scored 1 TD. We had 4 turnovers in total I believe. Sask scored 1 TD. D was good. Zach when injured had 160 yards passing. Strev added 34. Under 200 or just at it in total in reality. That’s not good enough in the cfl but Brady had 20 carries for ouch 83 yards. O has got oline problems and prob OC problems.

D is consistent, but they don't do anything to flip the field or even score points.  It's not like the 2016-2022 era team.

This whole team is built on Collaros' arm.  Except we didn't keep/bring in a #1 or even #2 receiver.  Demski has stepped up, but can't really carry the team.

If they D was good they'd have got the ball back to the O sooner at the end. They were good in the first half, got gassed on the dl in the latter stages. Happens when most of your guys are geriatrics and you got **** all for depth.

they need an imp who takes the most snaps. then lawson then jake takes the fewest. ideally even two imp dts with lawson coming in to facilitate an extra imp db.

Yeah for me canadian is one spot. Lawson and Thomas split it (since schmekel is hurt). Then an American is the other DT and get some depth around the rest of the line. Jefferson at this point is a bit player,  vaughters is ok but not an.every down guy.  We really need 8 guys dressed there and used heavily. 

 

We had 310 yards of total O. Sask was terrible and they had 337 yards of O. 
 

so if Sask was terrible, what the **** are we. 

Like Streveler has shown he can move the ball in relief this season cuz lol at D didn’t get the ball back sooner. Why? So we could throw another interception or average 4.3 yards per pass?

The Riders mostly scored because of turnovers that happened in scoring range. You can't expect a D to do more than hold them to field goals, when that happens. 

Bottom line: a QB who can't trust his protection, is not going to do well protecting the football. 

The OL got absolutely worked back to back weeks, and has all year, we can't beat a blitz through scheme... like what the **** are they doing there?

the secondary did its job for sure. especially with in scoring range. 

Bow time 

 

we suck cuz football is built in the trenches and right now our trenches are manned by the taliban who look like just the average guy and get so excited when they actually do something the average person watching the war online starts relating to them. Kolo for example, I can snap like that and block nobody. That’s like the dude blowing up the tank accidentally then cheering that he did. Inspiring but the problem is the rest of the league is the USA army and they coming in and blowing us away. We bringing knives to a gun fight with our O and D lines.
