GREY CUP - GAME DAY THREAD - Ticats @Bombers!
This is a completely different team from the one that played Hamilton back in September. Brandon Alexander was not even playing and Chris Streveler was having a tough game at QB. They exploited our liability at safety with max protect to give Evans extra steamboats. But even with all that, the game was mostly close and one critical error turned it into a blowout. Let me put it this way: the Bomber team that Hamilton beat in September would not even be in the Grey Cup. Hamilton has not played this current version of the Bombers, but Bombers have certainly played against the current version of the Ti-Cats. Everyone is talking about the Bombers' rushing attack and their stout run defense. The improved play of the secondary and the suddenly dangerous vertical passing attack are scarcely garnering a mention. Just. How. We. Like.It. #FORTHEW

Yeah, really outstanding analysis by that group - Hamilton has A, B, and C - and that should be enough. #sarcasmalert

That's perfect. No one is even mentioning the game the Bombers played against Calgary. Calgary had the same threats, the same speed at receiver and a better QB. They're choosing to write us off and not even attempting to write anything about the Bombers.

As the crow flies, it’s almost spitting distance - around the lake probably a 90 minute drive - gotta come over the Bridge to Nowhere. Homegrown steaks are on my GC menu.

Could probably knock the dust off some CR - as well. Hell - I could tell you - but then I’d have to kill you.

Within unmentionable factions of my extended family, it is breakfast staple as well as a late night snack, straight out of the jar Imagine a bedtime story with the kid beside you reeking of pickled herring I digress.

My primary concern is how they will adjust to the Ti-Cats' max protect. They fared poorly against it in Winnipeg, mostly because Evans was throwing to a spot and trusting his receivers to be there. This really only backfired once - on the Bighill interception. On the other hand, our defensive backfield is quite different from the one employed in that game. It will be interesting to see if Hammy if comes in with a similar game plan - they must be aware of our changes at Safety et. al. Hopefully useless blitzes are kept to a minimum...

And a defense capable of coming up big anywhere on the field. Goal line stands, timely pressures, timely interceptions, and overall aggressive play.

Agreed. Another good sign is not turning the ball over in the play offs. The opposition has had opportunities, but they all went the Bombers' way.

We are legit contenders for the first time since ‘01. 2007 & 2011 we would have needed a pile of things to go our way, in order to win. After seeing the game plan they had to beat the Stamps, I am feeling very hopeful.

Did some pruning here - let's stick to the topic not each other. And for the record, I love Winnipeg.

I also thought the Esks pass Defense had a very poor game in EDF.
