Bombers run game and defence were impressive yesterday. What wasn’t impressive was the wind up in the west side upper deck, 16C my ass!

Thing is, our D has been the best in the league at giving up the fewest points, and we’ve actually been able to score a bunch out side of the offence. I’ve never seen a 10 win team that gave up soo many turnovers and scoring turn overs. If we win the turn over battle, and the offence runs clock, we really can win. 1 point in week 10, 4 in 13, 5 in 19, and a single score loss in week 14. Week 5 we gave the ball away 4 times Then week 7 in the home away series we gave up 6 turnovers. Including 3 pick 6s, which is half of the 42 combined points we lost those two games by. plus two red zone picks. Then week see what happens in a game like hamilton when the offence is run semi competently, and montreal/wjs great game and we see what happens when we don’t handicap our front. If we got rid of our two worst players for internal backups by properly using the roster rules, had gone with lapo or jackson and not hogan, and gotten just average cfl starting qb play we don’t win all 6 of those toss up/thrown away game. But we easily win half of the 6, and finish first in the cfl/west.

Plus controlling both sides of the line of scrimmage usually bolds well.

thought Vanterpool actually played better than Randolph who was beat badly a few times by Archibald for one

first action requires a citation imo. He’s been through 3 training camps playing in 3 years pre seasons, dressed for 36 games, and as we all know he played in last years GC, before all that he spent 2 years in the usfl and never qualified as a rookie in the cfl. He also turns 28 in january. Hes had as much professional polishing as you get before starting in the CFL. He 100% should’ve gotten a bunch more snaps this year. we wasted a lot of snaps late in one sided games where the qb or both qbs ahead of him struggled greatly. But it is extremely hard to imagine him taking a significant leap forward, and suddenly making good reads and throwing with consistent accuracy. He looks much the same as from his first pre season game. Great raw athletic tools, none of the nuance parts required to succeed as a starter.

If we don't turn the ball over... We can beat anyone.

Riiiiiight. Math hard.

Pick this week need to be in by Saturday @ 1PM Standing below:

I agree about his throwing. He generally throws a pretty tight spiral which is more than I can say for Streveler or even Collaros. On the INT in the endzone, he did have Stearns wide open but tried to feather it to him and off of his back foot to boot. I like his athleticism, too. For his first real action, I thought that he did OK. I also wasn't too impressed with Hogan's play calling but I also think that he should be fired so even if he had called a good game, I'd be still calling for his firing. No brakes to pump regarding Wilson, I don't recall any posters thinking that he was the "second coming."

Sports are funny. Here I am looking back on a pretty mediocre season and logically knowing we are probably done in a week, and yet my heart is like...maybe? If we can surprise the Als I think we can beat the Cats.

I'm always excited to have a guy on the roster whose name ends in "ski" lol...

Agreed. And they will all likely be on the bench next week. I hope I’m wrong, but ….

I like the way Wilson throws, but let's pump the brakes guys. He threw for 79 yards and played most of the game.

I used to take the bus and go to downtown Winnipeg by myself and I was 12. Nothing dirty. Now when the SI swimsuit issue came.....

Also had a huge hole opened up by the middle of the OL... and it wasn't lolankowski at centre on that play. I'm just saying...

1pm CST...

I had the same injury, Been there, done that. Too bad. It's probably the end of the road as a player for Strev.

Do we know what the time is for next Saturday?

Make it a 5 game streak and I'd be in....

TMI buddy.

What a topsy turvy career PL continues to have.

I’m assuming a qb like Alexander might appreciate our three man rush giving him time in his office to survey his options?

Time for a three win winning streak.
