Quote from: ModAdmin on June 19, 2024, 12:32:02 AMThere won't be a QB or HC change in the near future but we will let your 3 and 15 prediction stand and revisit it after the season.

Sounds good, we shall see.

Quote from: Blue In BC on June 18, 2024, 05:10:38 PMAs mentioned above, limiting Lions TOP is important. Having our own running game would help that. Maybe Feltmate having a couple more practises will help run blocking. Augustine didn't look very good but he was being hit in the backfield.

"Didn't Look Very Good" Augustine averages 5.1Y in 2024, virtually all in his week 2 start.  He earns maybe $125k.

Superstar prez-needs-to-step-in $230k/year Brady averaged 3.5Y in week 1 and decided to sit out week 2.

At this juncture I'm not bashing Johnny.  5.1 can win you games, 3.5 makes it real tough.

Quote from: ModAdmin on June 18, 2024, 10:36:30 PMWe should start a poll or Pickems II predicting how many times Techno uses the word U.N.A.C.C.E.P.T.A.B.L.E. or how many Bombers season standing predictions Road Griller will post. After 2 games he is currently at 2 predictions - 6 and 12 and 3 and 15.

I was thinking of using it in every post in that thread... you're tempting me!  Maybe I'll keep it in my back pocket until after Friday's game... maybe.

:P

I am coming in to Peg from BC for this one.
Would love to see the Bombers win this game.
But if I was a betting man ... based on what we've seen so far from this team I'd have to bet against it.
Still, Go Blue!
Just gimme the rock.

Quote from: Road Griller on June 18, 2024, 10:59:07 PMIt was 6-12 after week 1.

Now that I have seen all the other teams it's 3-15

IF there is a starting QB or HC change I will adjust once accordingly depending on the week.

But all things being equal it's 3-15 as it stands today.  Better QB play and better roster management will bolster the W column IMO.

Your posts made less sense as times go on imo. 
3 and 15 not a chance.
Change of QB or HC, not a remote chance, QB injury only way that occurs.
Did you check the Peavy flyer agriculture section lol. Any sales? Asking for a friend lol.

We shall see.  The team is a lot worse than most people realize right now.  BC could hang a Fifty Burger on us.

Chchchchchanges after 1-5, 0-6 should be expected. 

Not sure what the Peavy flyer has to do with anything?  But if it makes MOS nationalize an American and stop overplaying Nationals I will check it.  Heck I would even go and buy one of whatever they sell!

Quote from: Blue In BC on June 18, 2024, 10:18:36 PMAnother day that Oliveria, Nichols and Schoen don't practice.  K.Wilson was limited today. Sheehan was a DNP but have no idea what was about?

We know that we could still see all these players on the AR this week, but this is not a good indication of game readiness.

More roster movement on CFL.CA but that's misleading. On paper, Hubert, Samson and Woods were added to the AR. Charbonneau gone to PR.

We might as many as 4 - 6 changes from last week.

I see Lions Cottoy and Rene have not practised yet this week.

Not true, DS83 was on the field and practiced today. Wilson also took part in all the drills and was with the 1st. team for most of the practice.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

Good to know. I was just referencing the daily IR report which stated Schoen as DNP and K. Wilson as Limited. Our IR report is useless as are the transaction reports.

OK, as everyone is giving their opinion as to why the Bombers are not playing as well as we all expected, rust and injuries.  This will turn around and the Bombers, after watching two games, will be 9- 9 at seasons end.  The good part is that they will be at peak mode entering the playoffs.

The team that really surprises me  is the Stamps and the play of their QB Maier.  They are going to be tough to beat.  Riders not so much.  BC... everyone expected them to be tough.  Edmonton will be spoilers but miss the playoffs. ;)

The team is a lot better than you and some are leading on.  MOS, his staff and management know more about roster management than all of this forum combined.  Trust the system.  We at not getting a 50 burger landed on us, Bombers like offer a $50 burger to share lol.

Your expectations and predictions on our record will likely be proven wrong.  Time will tell.  Tough game Friday.  Pm me and I'll share the Peavy Mart reference.  I'm sure a few vets got it (hope lol).  Hint check the poultry feed section lol.
