I don't remember Kevin Glenn or Troy Westwood winning 4 Grey Cups.

Damon Allen by far the most overrated CFL QB ever. There's a reason he wasn't a first ballot HOFer......
Second highest passing yards all time (72,381 yards), second highest TD passes thrown (394), 3rd highest rushing total all time (11,920), 3rd highest rushing TDs (93), 4 Grey Cup Championships on three teams but okay most overrated CFL QB ever.

Winnipeg knocked his arm after it was going forward his arm kept going forward then he lost it. ******* command center garbage!
Th Bombers got screwed on many things today but this review was not one of them. That was an incomplete forward pass by rule: The passing motion begins when the passer's hand, with the ball in possession, begins moving forward.

Looks pretty similar to me. Except Adams chose a backhand helmet swing versus an overhead helmet smash.
There is actual video evidence of the helmet striking the Steelers player.

He was revered in Winnipeg. So, in 86 we had Clements, Hufnagel, former Seattle great Jim Zorn & a young Tom Muecke on our practice roster. Talk about a stacked line up at qb.
Not quite like having Matt Dunigan and Damon Allen on your 86 team but okay.

Congratulations Bomber fans! Spectacular Win!!

Receiver feels defender touch him and then he dives. Welcome to Big Al's team of incompetent bums.

Evans?

Had to play the refs. but pulled it off anyway's.....I hope we never see that reffing crew again for the rest of the year..Just bull$hit missed calls...especially the one on Zach....If that were Bo getting nailed like that on( two occasions for sure) there would have been player ejections...Brutal
After all 18 games are played, Winnipeg will have had the fewest penalties called and accepted against them in the league. Right now they are the second lowest with 116 while Ottawa is the lowest with 110 and two games to play. Even in this game each team had 7 penalties and in only 1/3 of their games this season have the Bombers had more penalties called and accepted against them than their opposition.

That first challenge/timeout basically has to be used before the 3 minute warning in the 4th. I believe that’s why O’Shea often takes a shot on challenges close to the 3 minute warning.
There were two blatant missed calls he could have challenged in the first half, the non-catch you mentioned and a headshot on Collaros by Westerman on the Bombers opening drive.
You lose your first time out if it isn't used before the 3 minute warning in the second half. You do not lose your challenge.

Great to see that game by Collaros, happy for him. For people complaining about his 221 passing yards being so low, the Bombers had the same yards per pass as the Stampeders, 8.1. The Stampeders just threw the ball 14 more times than the Bombers.
O'Shea sure wasted his challenge. He could have challenged that non-catch near the end of the first half or hung onto it for something that might have been real in the last three minutes (when he could still have used it).
The pressure the Bombers don't get on the QB is scary.
Happy you guys got the win tonight.

Legal tackle but ultimately fatal, I wouldn't be surprised to see the CFL move further in the direction of protecting their QB's after this disastrous season. NFL already has done this with their "no landing on the quarterback" rule change last season, I expect the CFL to do the same for the betterment of the game. I refuse to tune in to watch Logan Kilgore battle Danny O'Brien unless they're in a boxing ring.
It is already there:
Article 5 — Roughing The Passer
Because the act of passing puts the passer in a particularly vulnerable position to injury, special rules against roughing the passer apply. Once the ball is released, defensive players must avoid all unnecessary contact with the passer. A player shall be penalized for any act of Unnecessary Roughness to the passer, including but not limited to:
- Contacting the passer in an unnecessary manner, including stuffing him to the ground, violently throwing him to the ground, and landing on him with most of the defender's weight, ...

Wonder if that "disqualify Harris for his suspension" attitude would carry over to Vernon Adams Jr. in Montreal?
Was Adams Jr. suspended for failing a drug test? If not, I would guess not.

You guys don't have enough faith in the spectacular upset that BC has in store for the Stampeders!

Yeah that fan base loves to crap on Winnipeg.. and why I am.not sure as their 2 major cities are crap holes with nothing..and all the sask youth leave the province now as soon as they are old enough..tells u a lot..no?
The funniest part is they revel in the dude crapping in the flower pot that went viral..and dont even realize..or acknowledge it was a visiting Saskatchewsn resident who did it..that's the funniest part of it and obviously a Saskatchewan thing moreso than Winnipeg.
The second funniest is their #1990..maybe they should focus more on the #4cupsinover100yrs
If anything that is the essence of ineptitude..or #2saveustelethons....
That's not people leaving the province, those are Rider fans "travelling well".

Hopefully Harris is back and okay for those games.

The western nominee isn't going to win it anyway so why not,

2005 was one of Allen's later years. One in which he passed for over 5,000 yards, had 467 rushing yards and was the CFL Most Valuable Player. He was more durable than many in that list of quarterbacks that Brandon listed.
I would take Allen over Glenn because when you stopped Glenn's quick passing game it was all over for him. Allen could by time and get yards on his own. He wouldn't be the third leading rusher of all time if he couldn't.
