CJOB commentators have said that the Lions' game plan will be to go after Collaros hard and often. The Lions apparently have little respect for the Bomber running game, so we will probably see a lot of blitzing.
Butt-pucker time.
So far Riders do not look like much of a threat to anyone. As far as Fajardo's knee brace is concerned, it shouldn't impair his ability to throw his teammates under buses.
Sure looks like it tonight against a mediocre Ottawa D-line. Fajardo hates getting hit and if he actually gets hurt a bit , that ought to throw his game off.
Should the Bombers rally and beat the Lions with a depleted lineup (including two league all-stars down), the Bombers can legitimately claim to be the best in the league. If they lose, well, they have a built-in excuse unless the get blown out- something the O'Shea Bombers just don't do any more.
