Check out the standings.  0 points ties us with EDM and HAM.

But we have 31 points for, vs 41 EDM, 54 HAM.

31 points for in 2 games!!

Who had WPG as absolute worst team (by a mile!) in the league going into 2024 week 3?  With a 15pts/game average!

Pressure better be on in WFC land!  Fires better be lit!  Otherwise things will be lit here on Monday if EDM/HAM win and we don't... OR they simply outscore us again...

And what's with the chatter about us practicing less than the league-allowed amount of time?  Is that true??  Does anyone have the numbers?  Can we get facts about this?  I think it was ModAdmin that seemed a bit surprised we weren't practicing on day X.

If the situation is as it currently is and we're skipping out on practice, or if we're still giving (non-IR) "vet days"...

You're going to be okay, Techno.

Been saying that since after the first game. The signs were there.  They lost their fire. Who can we beat?  Maybe steal a game from Hamilton, Ottawa or Edmonton?

3-15 is a real possibility unless major changes happen.  Playoffs are a pipe dream without them.

Lapo breaks down Dru Brown's game and by extension, our coverage. Only one real bust but how fast Brown reads is pretty impressive and most hugely, no mistakes.

If you watch Lapo's video, on the big reception one it appears Bonds should "switch" coverage with Bridges but doesn't, Bridges tries to get over top but ends up way out of position. In the TD one Ford does not switch up with Holm and leaves a receiver open. Both the guys making mistakes are young inexperienced guys....it sucks but inexperience makes mistakes...the real question is can the coaches and the leaders step up and minimize these types of mistakes....so far after two weeks, we seem to be missing that

I've seen it many times with Edm., playing 3 rookie DB's is a disaster waiting to happen. They can be the best athletes but it won't help them without game knowledge and great communication skills.

Personally I think we're going to be 0-48 this season.

Well, all I can say is other teams are signing players, ALs just signed Titus Wall, Edm sign a receiver, Tor signs someone, and we do nothing with all the injuries we have, we must have cap space based on all the 6 gamer IR's. Not looking like we are making an effort to turn things around but are hoping our starters come around. I guess WFC is going with a hope and a prayer this year.

I know it's been said many times before, but the Lions went 0-5 and won the grey cup. With Brady and Lawler our, our offensive production is going to suffer—currently scoring 16 pats a game on average, that doesn't win you too many ball games. So our game plan has to change. We aren't going to win shoot outs, so concentrate on high percent plays that move the ball consistently and work at winning the 25-20 games, forget string to score 40 points a game, ain't gonna happen until our 2-3 offensive superstars come off the IR and our O line gets it together. Until then, work with what you've got and try and get a 0.500 record u til our studs get back.

Techno rough start but we don't need a new thread for every negative thought about the club that come to your head.  Love a lot of your content and attention to detail but these numerous threads with the same flavor is getting a little much imo. 

2 games, deep breath, club will be ok.  Likely around 500 or a couple game above is my prediction.  Get healthy, develop some new guys, have a few new faces show up, make the playoffs and put some hurt on teams when it matters.

I ordered some chicken feed from peavy mart, it was on sale so don't worry, lots to share lol just kidding.  2 games.  I'll wait till labour day before I worry.

Your post is the best!!!!!

Bombers will likely fold and be moved to Saskatoon.  Stadium will be sold at a huge loss and moved leaving a huge debt for Manitobians.  Taxes will be raised and we will eat beans for a decade.

Let's try to have a ounce of hope here guys.  I have seen bad clubs a decade ago and we are not as bad and times are not as desperate as they seam.  Also let's have laugh to lighten the mood.
