Exactly. If the Bombers don’t turn it over or allow huge returns, hard to see the Als winning. Just don’t force it. 
 

Whistle had gone for sure. Gave himself up to just run the clock out. Looked like Walker could have blown up Vaj too and Holm would have walked in. 

Some luck involved with the only major injury in game hitting a place of depth (LB). If one of the Jeffs or a DB had gone down, then that’s where Jackson on the roster hurts. Rather have the D depth than an American FB with little impact, that’s all it is for me. 

That’s exactly it. Last night proved how important depth is. Biggie went out and they didn’t skip a beat because of the depth at LB on the roster.

Fajardo’s only hope is to run around a bunch. More Dline depth Is the way. 

1 Dline - Jeffs feasted 
2 LBs - flew around even without Biggie
3 Secondary - locked down all night. Most of the catches made were well contested.

Booch and Mike were absolutely right and most of us have agreed. The roster, when healthy, is very good. But it's one or two injuries from being awful because we are leaving better players on the PR in order to roster some players (Jackson) that don't really make sense. But make no mistake.... Even at it's worst right now, it's a damn good team/roster.

Grey Cup again. What an age we live in. Soak it in. 

Just for the record, it was never a matter (and still isn’t) of anything other than hoping this wasn’t going to come back and bite us in the ass. Doesn’t look like it’s going to, but I’m not going to sit here and tell you that I think that makes it good practice. 
I’ll firmly stand on my opinion that our roster isn’t optimal and leaves us vulnerable, that doesn’t mean we’re not still smashing teams when we’re operating at let’s say … 90% of what we could be. 
At the end of the day, all I want is a Grey Cup and it looks like we’ve got a great shot at another one. I hope Damian Jackson scores the game winning TD. They’re all Bombers and I’ll cheer for every single one of them.
oh yeah and I’m getting an Evan Holm jersey. He’s a dawwwwwg.

If our defence plays with that energy and continued pursuit like they did last night...and did what they did to The Vaj...well the Faj has no hope and it will actually look comical with him doing his Faj like stuff in the pocket and getting swallowed up play after play

Schoen is going to play. I think he has one game left in him before that ankle goes and he was saving it for the Cup.

Don't turn the ball over and play D like today.

You guys ***** and moan all year and look at us now

Lots of interesting stuff here: https://www.bluebombers.com/2023/10/31/statistical-year-in-review/
Big one that jumped out to me 
100/955
Winnipeg was penalized 100 times in the regular season for 955 yards, fewest in the CFL.
And here’s the number that just reinforces how disciplined this team is – over the last five seasons, 2017-23, the Blue Bombers have been the least penalized team in the league EVERY SINGLE SEASON.
