We start 8 Canadians. You can bench Thomas and never give him another snap any time they want.

It really is that simple.

Disagree
We rotate Thomas and Lawson
Woods evening making the roster is tough
He isn't taking our Cdn Dl reps

I don't have any proof of anything.  It's my educated guess and I explained my reasoning.  I think MOS finally is realizing the direness of the situation, losing to 1-win crap no-QB TOR.

I was just responding to you saying "the proof will be.."

[Blueforlife]

Source?

My brain

[TecnoGenius]

We've been called for it this year, I think. Or in the grey cup perhaps?

Then you'll have to come up with the magic words of what they call it, or find the rule in the rulebook, because I've never seen it.

What is is you're saying is illegal?  OL guys going downfield too soon on a screen?

[The Zipp]

middle screen...been a play forever

A screen pass is when the ball is caught behind the line of scrimmage.  This play and the one at the 3 min warning in the first half were both caught past the line of scrimmage.  Both had 3 lineman downfield blocking which is a penalty.

hitch screen and middle or center screen are not the same.

Not saying he will. I'm saying we could. You told me it wasn't that simple. But it really is.

Griffin is a very good player

[blueandgoldguy]

I would just remind everyone that the Bombers started last season 0-4, they looked at least as bad in those games as they do right now, all of the same things were being said about many of the same players, it was a good run while it lasted, Collaros is done, yadda yadda yadda...

I'd rather they go through a string like this in July, rather than in October, the way the Riders do.

lol, no they didn't.  First game against Montreal they looked bad.  The next 3 they lost by 4, 3 and 2 points.  The next 2 losses after that were by 10 and 2 points.  2 of their first 6 losses were in OT.  Quit it with this revisionist nonsense.

[jdrattops]

Then what's the penalty they announce for it?  Never once in my life heard "ineligible player downfield" or similar in CFL.

Ineligible receiver downfield.  Olineman have to report being eligible on a play (Eli TD), as they have ineligible numbers.

[TecnoGenius]

These ST penalties are getting boring real fast.  Miller get these guys some discipline!

MOS must be livid

[Blueforlife]

Not saying he will. I'm saying we could. You told me it wasn't that simple. But it really is.

If it was that simple it would happen and it won't
Proved my point

STREVIES BETTER, STREVIES BETTER!!!!!

Time to plug Zach into the #3 slot for good.

I don't mean to be rude but can you &&*^%%$ up with our #1 QB

[Blueforlife]

3 good games 3 bad games
Average team
