    Correct... I agree, if the Bombers fielded a punt on or inside Hamilton's 45 they would have been in Medlock's range, but that wasn't the case.  If that's your argument can you provide the stats as to where the Bombers fielded the ball on each one of Medlock's field goal attempts? The offense moved the ball into scoring range, the Bombers weren't "gifted" with 18 points by virtue of punts fielded deep inside Hamilton's half of the field.  At least not in the game I watched.

    Medlock doesn't just walk onto the field and spot the ball anywhere he wants...

    Seems to me the talking heads on TSN were saying the Bombers put points on the board  7 out of their last 8 drives... Remind me what the final score was again?

    NormW reacted to blue_gold_84 in 2019 - My own Weird Diehard Take   
    The Ti-Cats had first place locked up for a while and then took the crossover team out back, getting a cakewalk to the big game. And then all week, it was a lot of talk from the big names - and I genuinely believe that talk got their heads and they expected an easy, exhausted opponent. Complacency set in.
    We all know how it worked out. Did any player on the Ti-Cats stand out last night? Not really. They got smacked around early and never really recovered, looking stunned and shell-shocked by the time it was all over. 
    I'm not big on the whole "team of destiny" notion, as I believe it takes away from the hard work of the coaches and players. These guys battled - hard - for three games all on the road. For one another, they were constant in their collective relentless effort, unwavering teamwork, and incredible perseverance for a common goal. If anything, the 2019 Blue Bombers created their own destiny and the football gods smiled down upon them for their hard work. This was a championship run for the ages, not only for the fact it erased 29 years of heartache and failure, but also in how impressively dominant they were in these games against strong opponents.
    This organization, this fanbase, and dare I say this city - needed this victory. These players have cemented their legacy as legends.

    I really try not to compare one to the other, it comes down to content and the maturity level of the posters for me. Lipstick and eyeliner isn't that important to me... My last comment was merely suggesting the other site still appears to be having stability issues and might not be dependable (the best choice) over the course of the Grey Cup weekend.

    I think if you re-watch the game again take note of what the Bombers were doing on defense, they did the same thing against Calgary and Bo.  They were rushing to spots on the field, They were forcing the play and the QB into spots they weren't designed to be in, often referred to as changing the launch point. It changes the timing, a designed throwing window, the blocking scheme or angles. The defence literally controlled the play of the offence.
