Is this ever a guy we should take a run at? I really like Pokey as a receiver but not sure he's a 1A Superstar guy... Would you ever take a run at Hatcher as your #1 and then have Pokey and Demski as 2/3?

Artopoeus? I’d still like to see them bring in an experienced 4th (5th if Elgersma makes his way here) QB for competition. 

UFL MVP or not, I don’t like the idea of half a year before the season starts, handing the backup job to a QB who’s never played a down of CFL football. 

Artpoeus was training camp fodder. Kept around because there was no competition. We knew who QB2 & 3 were going to be a year ago.

It is actually mind blowing how much this clip describes our offense.

Interesting that it's a lateral move and not a promotion.

That is interesting. Guess that means we will be back in the mix for a front office type this year as well.

Glad Sunderland's gone. There was always the chance if Walters had been fired that this shnook would have taken over.

So, attendance is terrible in Edmonton & Toronto. Not so great in Calgary & Ottawa. Only Winnipeg sold out all their games & with our downturn this season, I don't expect that to happen again. Maybe Saskatchewan will lead the league in attendance this coming season. The Commissioner is trying to change things up & is villified by the same fans who won't show up for a CFL game but can't wait for the NFL to start every year.

Hamilton doesn't list a GM, so maybe it is even with the same title name?

How can you  have an Asst GM but no GM? Talk about a top heavy "who's in charge" organization???

Yeah, however a few more short weeks next season.

You are right about the less travel.

This Stats Geek guy has the Bombers as the team traveling the least.

100% failed to give him enough consistent reps. But also our dl coaching hasn’t been where it needs to be. 

When is the last time we saw real meaningful development of any dl? Jeffcoat? Stove basically came in and did what he did. Same with kongbo. We’ve failed to get more out of dl talent for an awful long time. We’ve scouted some tremendous talent, mainly on the inside of the line. But the guys that worked out came in at a high level and left at the same level. 

Patterson is really well liked and a former bomber player, but I haven’t seen nearly enough from his guys. We’ve brought in soo many guys with pedigree, athleticism, every advantage you could want and not been able to get any of them to use those to win 1on1 vs hardly any one.
