At the end of the week, Riders love dirty players LOL

MBT it is on Friday. 

I do think he is the better QB at the moment

Yes but as has been pointed out many times is that the Elks continue to find ways to lose. They haven't found out how to win. Errors, turnovers and discipline issues haunt them

MBT is often a turnover machine.

Meh, MBT is their best option to win the game and the Elks are fighting for their playoff lives, Ford at this point looks to be a good change of pace QB.

After all the Ford Bros. attention and discussion this past weekend I get the sense they're super close and would love to play together again. I'm sure the Elks would love to retain Tre but don't see him as a #1 yet, so they might hang onto MBT for another year.  Maybe that's reason enough for him to jump ship but not a lot of places to land that would give him the #1 job opportunity, maybe zero.

Tyrell seems to be pretty happy in Wpg. but with the size of Zach's contract there's no room left over for a middling second string QB contract, so unlikely they can play together in Wpg.  Still think they will be the big story of the off-season as they seek to package themselves together to sign with the highest bidder.

He is the "better" QB, by the stats, but look a BLM and his record.

He is better, but far easier to defend.  Ford bends a defence to his will.  Look at the 3 man front we ran against him, with DE's halfway to the sidelines.  And 2 spies.  If the Elks could have figured out how to take advantage of the D Younger threw at them.. well, last game would have been a different story.

Scheming for MBT will be easier, but will take some adjustment.  Now, should the Elks decide to rotate them, that's a lot of adjustments JY would need to make.

I prefer going against MBT.  He'll never beat you with his legs, or extend plays to the point the D is out of position.

Its the GC year, $SMS be damned.  If you can get Tre here on a one year deal, or one at $350k and the next with a bump, do it.

Typical first day of practice for the week. Lucky, Nick Hallett, both sitting out practice.

94 Adams: Is just a ball of energy. He's so quick, and never stops having fun.
41 Cole: Limited.
19 Wilson: DNP. Wasn't showing any sign of injury. But, he did touch his calf a few times.
83 Schoen: Walking and moving well.  Not running yet.
82 Woli: Running sprints in the end zone.
90 Fox: Full practice.


Lawson: Moving much better this week. Spends a lot of the time working with the OL and DL.

Parker: Still not moving that well.
Wallace: On the field with two knee braces, but did not practice.

48 Wright: Not impressed. Knee braces does move that well.
81 Hart: Good speed, nice hands. Still learning the return game. 

A lot of players on the field. It's like a mini TC.

Do we have anything offical from O'shea or the blue bombers stating the Schoen is done for the year?

I know Dave Naylor mentioned he was, but i haven't heard anything since.

Here is LaPo's breakdown of Younger's D against the Elks last weekend. Other than the flea-flicker they played it well.

He will be signing autographs this Sunday from noon to 2 pm at the Bombers store. You can ask him yourself!

I wonder why we would hear an update about a player who has been announced as out for the year.

But yes, MOS admitted very early on that Schoen was not coming back (for the year).

It was Naylor who mentioned it. I didn't think we heard anything from the Bombers

If they are keeping him around, I wonder if they plan on re-signing him

MOS said so himself as well.

I imagine Schoen is obligated to come around as he probably had marketing money in his contract so still has to meet his off field obligations.

I'm sure they want to re-sign him if he's going to recover from his injury.
