    We rarely go for 2. No trickery, once in a Blue moon now. I mean some of us aren't exactly sure what he does on game days even

    Don't mean to derail this thread - but why did we go for two when we were up by 4? Kicking the PAT and going up by 5 means if TO answered with a TD, they have to either go for 2, to go up by 3, or we could've won it with a FG... anyone got a good reason why were so adamant about going up by....6?

    Takeaway: we're leaving with a loss, but with a sense of confidence. Because if these two teams are fortunate enough to play each other again, the game will be very different. And on that day in November if they face the actual 2023 Argonauts, the Bombers will have to do much better than they did Friday night.

     

    Good summary, Bombers have played down to their opponents all year. With the exception of the egg laid against BC, their losses have been against very pedestrian teams (OTT, HAM, SSK). In each of those games, their performance either wasn't good enough (HAM), or they let an inferior opponent hang around (OTT/SSK).

    How is this for a bad football take. The Bombers are better off finishing second. I think our chances are better beating the Riders at home and then taking BC on in a dome where Zach is nice and cozy. The way he has played in cold weather lately, I kind of feel we lose out on home field advantage against the Lions anyways if the weather is bad.

    1st or bust, with how old our core is, the bye helps and as others have said, Brady would run rampant if we host the Western Final. The only upside to finishing second would be demolishing Riders in the semi-final lol.

    I'm curious too, I saw the flag come out and Argo players coming out on the field in protest for a sec, but missed the actual deed

    He was mouthing off to the sideline judge (he was on the bench) ... He wanted a PI call for a WR and ended up getting a 10 yard bench penalty with TO on offense.

    Sitting behind the away team bench is a two way street, but sometimes it is absolutely spectacular
