The Corbett Report, August 3, 2023
Introduction The Bombers enter this week’s matchup against the Lions with a 5-2 record. I’d say (as someone who survived the Jeff Reinbolt era and the Mike Kelly era and the Joe Mack era) that a 5-2 record would be pretty easy to accept. Heck, in 2019 after 7 games the Bombers had an identical […]

Introduction For real. Some of the comments on social media after last week’s meltdown at Lansdowne: Hell, the only one on the team that no one’s complained about is the kicker. Seriously? Aren’t these people the core of what brought us to the Grey Cup in each of the last three years? Surely, one game, […]

That was before the BC game when the Lions manhandled the O-Line and sacked Collaros a total of SEVEN times! […]

Introduction A repeat song, you lament? Not so fast. When this song was last published on October 8, 2021 it was all about the D-FENCE. In 2021, enroute to averaging just 13.4 points per game, the D was the dominate force on the Bombers. Remember it was the same D that in 2019 allowed just […]
