October 18, 201411 yr For a guy parachuted into the starting role with no training camp, I've been pretty impressed with Crompton.
October 18, 201411 yr Quiet thread so far. I gotta say though, the irony continues to amaze me that a head coach (Tom Higgins) goes from being on borrowed time after his last loss against us, to now being the god of Montreal. So now with a win here, it's them vs the Tiger Cats for 1st in the East. Just unreal.
October 18, 201411 yr The best coaches have the best quarterbacks- makes me wonder what Berry or even LaPolice could have done with a decent QB.
October 18, 201411 yr Berry took a decent QB in a system that was working... and 'improved' it until we hired Mike Kelly.
October 18, 201411 yr Crompton definitely playing with confidence which Willy is sorely lacking right now.
October 18, 201411 yr Sure would like to see Slaton or Steele playing for the Bombers, both of those guys run with purpose.
October 18, 201411 yr Crompton is highly entertaining to watch. Dinwiddie also looking better then Bellefool.
October 18, 201411 yr The best coaches have the best quarterbacks- makes me wonder what Berry or even LaPolice could have done with a decent QB. They also have the best RBs, just take a look at Tyrell Sutton and he is an instant upgrade over what we got. He not only runs with authority and runs straight downhill and makes people miss, he also picks up blitzers on Crompton's blindside giving him that extra second to throw. We have not had a RB like that in a while.
October 18, 201411 yr Gord Miller is struggling today. "The field goal doesn't get them much, it brings them to within ... eight." Love Dunigan's color commentary though. Sounds like a drunk uncle who is just having a great time at the party.

So now with a win here, it's them vs the Tiger Cats for 1st in the East. Just unreal. Popp never gave him much to work with at qb. The guy is a very good coach but he needs players just like Vince Lombard or Bill Belichek.
Battle for first in the East continues.
