BC locker room must be broken. Sask D looks solid though... i think they are rhe strongest team in the east right now but its all up for grabs. Fun season to watch

Bombers better hope whoever they play does not have a pass rush. If they do the Bombers are toast. Collaros cant evade or escape well enough anymore and when he is under pressure he makes bad choices.

Bombers going back to 3 import o linemen could be an option, Neufeld looks like he is done and centre Kolankowski never was. Eli is nothing more than a sixth lineman. Randolph at guard was solid filling in for Neuf.

Neuf did seem like the weak link

Yeah the expanded PR's end around now. Always some PR releases this time of year, few years ago this actually how they released Carlton Agudosi, who was then signed by TOR before being released at year's end by TO and never signing another pro contract.

Bombers look pretty healthy going into a very important game

Need to take care of business in Montreal. Zero confidence that Stamps will do us a solid and beat Riders.

Any word on Als planned lineup? Looked like they went with a mix of starters and backups last week.

Depth chart is out on their website. It looks like a few starters along the DL (Ademi-Berglund, Mustafa Johnson), Nafees Lyon at HB, and their returner in Letcher Jr are out. That's about it. It looks like for the rest the starters are playing with Sankey, Beverette, Sutton, Dequoy, Wynn all in on D and Mack, Julien-Grant, Spieker, Snead, Rambo, Fletcher, their regular OL and Fajardo all listed as starters on O. It's possible and likely a guy like Fajardo may get pulled in the 2nd half, but for the most part Montreal is going all out to right the ship before playoffs. No easy W's for Bombers here.

It will be interesting to see how they approach it. I can see a coach not wanting starters to have two weeks off but I would also be surprised to see a team push it too much and risk injury when you have the division locked up.

Either way Bombers have to prepare for a war and fans can hope they encounter a team that is playing with the intensity of an exhibition game.

Maas starting Fajardo is taking a chance keeping him in the game longer than a series or two might prove the wrong thinking.
He'll play at least the whole first half, IMO. Montreal is in a funk, they want this game. Bombers gotta be up to challenge.

So far so good, got an INT on first drive and O looks in sync.
