Speaking of not kidding ourselves: if and when Watson comes back we could very well have someone else injured.  It just gives us one more option with ratio.
 
We have the ability to start 3 Americans on the OL, we have Canadians who can play effectively in the secondary, and we have three Canadian receivers who are capable of being every down players.

It was a good way to counter the way Hammy was stacking the middle. Unorthodox yes, a bad call, no.

Bombers had to settle for field goals early and Hamilton gets the big play kick return and manages to punch their chances into the endzone rather than kicking field goals, that's CFL ball right there. Game looks like it's going one way but a couple plays later it's flipped around. 

I have to give extra kudos for two players on the team who have been questioned as to why they are on this team.
They worked their butts off tonight and were prominent in securing this victory.
For two unsung heroes,
Greg Peach, who had a hell of a game tonight 5 tackles, 2 sacks and constant pressure,
and Aaron Kelly who came in tonight and picked up where Nick Moore left off, 7 catches 101 yards.
 
Gentlemen, I salute your efforts...

Haha, I didn't mean our drivers were fantastic. But these guys just seem like they're in a different world.

IMO the OL is starting to gel. Pass protection was better than decent in  BC and will only improve when Greaves is back in there. 

Hey folks - what's with all the negative vibes today?
 
I would say this game unfolded pretty much exactly the way it needed to if the Bombers were going to win.  A smothering performance from the D combined with a workmanlike approach from the O.  Well okay, BC blew several opportunities (holding on ST's really hurt them) to help our cause. 
 
I for one was not expecting the O to be very productive against the best pass D in the CFL.  250 yards through the air and some MUCH IMPROVED protection for Drew Willy is pretty darn decent  Not to mention a beautifully executed hitch on the Denmark TD.  
 
Grigsby had his up and downs but play-action seemed to be effective when they used it.  He was a key release valve on a couple of blitzes.  
 
The D kept Harris in check and got pressure on Glenn right from the get-go.  Harris / Logan looked decent but never really did any serious damage.  To me it looked like Etch was forcing BC to beat them with the pass, and quite frankly they couldn't.  
 
ST was looking good too - nice work on coverage, kicking (!), and punting.  
       

Losing Inman to the NFL plus all the injuries they have. Even RR can't make chicken salad out of chicken ****.

The winning TD drive in the Montreal game? Safe to say that would've been a loss.

3 Canadian receivers who are legitimate starters - maybe our National depth isn't so bad after all.
 
(Someone should tell the CFL their new jargon makes a football discussion sound like an election campaign)

Those cheerleaders can really stress a guy out.

All of that aside, there were several key plays that turned this game in the Esks favour.
 
1. The Grigsby giveaway
 
2. The Feoli-Gudino drop 
 
3. The Moore fumble
 
4. Several Reilly runs that should have been sacks
 
5. The FG that hit the upright
 
If those plays are made, we may be talking about a win.
 
Seriously...if 2 and 3 are both TD's...how much complaining would we be doing about MB's offensive scheme?  
 
Yes, this team needs to be better, but they will win some more games.  The opportunities to win were there. 
 
This is NOT the 2013 team.

Funny thing, they tried for years to find an import who could do all 3 jobs. Looks like we might have a Canadian who can

We knew Montreal would stack the line, yet a quick passing game was not used to combat it.  The Als stack the line, we have just the 5 or 6 guys blocking and Willy is looking 20 - 30 yards down field.
 
The result was...predictable...

The hell you say. Let's trade Willy for two nationals, a guard and a tackle. Then we'll hire Joe Mack to scour the U.S. for our next QB, whom we'll protect at all costs.
 
Yep, that oughta do it...
