if this is correct (and i am too indifferent to check it out), it means one of the two spins:So the Riders haven’t beaten the BB’s in a playoff game since 1955!?!

Highly doubt we lose Streveler to the NFL. It just doesn’t happen very often. He’ll probably be backup again for us next season and depending on how things go with Nichols I can see Streveler officially taking the reigns as starter in 2020.
Zero chance he makes the NFL, but we can agree to disagree. Let's re-visit this thread in 2020.I started the discussion and I am talking about him playing QB in the NFL.
His running ability is a huge skill and several NFL teams are seeking a backup QB with that skill. Watch what the Saints and Ravens are doing.
The passing and football IQ are there too. You have a guy who is a rookie pro with a decent sample who turned the ball over at a rate lower than most starting QBs in the CFL this year and put up scores at a very high rate when he played actual QB, aside from the short-yardage/change of pace stuff.
If he comes in next year and is the same player or better he won’t be in the CFL in 2020 unless someone pays him starter money, or a reasonable bonus structure to get there.
He actually had a few sniffs from NFL teams prior to joining the Bombers, but that was just to be a training camp body, so that's why he turned those opportunities down and came to the CFL. But I agree, he's not NFL material and never will be.Streveler was never on NFL radar and will never be, there was zero interest on him coming out of college.

I think you're right. In fact I think tis is the year the Bombers win the Cup! And when they do, they're brining it back home to Winnipeg! - Ed Olczyk.We're due to beat the Riders in the playoffs.

Time will determine...If only life worked that way.
cold weekend in Regina. bodes well for Wpg's running game.
1972 Western Final Winnipeg Stadium it was freezing I was at that game ... Bombers had a big lead only to blow it. The game was tied 24-24 ...So the Riders haven’t beaten the BB’s in a playoff game since 1955!?!
Reading the papers today, it seems that Collaros might get the start, and I wonder if Jones is just playing with the Bombers.It's very unlikely that Collaros plays. Sask went out and talked Drew Tate out of retirement, they would not have done that if Collaros was going to play. So it'll probably be Bridge, Watford, or Tate. All of which are a huge downgrade on what is already the league's worst offense. Sask depends entirely on scoring defensive touchdowns and winning the turnover battle by 3 or 4 every single game. So long as Nichols doesn't underhand lob the ball to the Riders again the Bombers will win this game.
