Glenn was how I remember.  Looks good, but inevitably screws up.

Nicholls tonite was Sean Salisbury. Nothing great, but no awful mistakes, and we won.

26 $%#^$#!#$^%&%&$%^@* Years.
I almost named my 3rd son Milt in 2008.  Wish I did.

Love our defence again.

Learning to love our OLINE

About bloody time Mr.O'Shea's special teams start to dominate.

Gritty, smashmouth win against a VERY tough defence. Huge. Not pretty but grinded it out. Lets not forget were doing this with OUR TOP 3 WR'S OUT. If our defence keeps this up and we get Smith, Dressler, and Adams back....all of whom Nichols has shown chemistry with......:rolleyes: GIGGITY!

 

Best stat line of the night:  Duron Carter 3/27!

that's the place. Jack Semple used to play there regularly.

Saw Big Sugar there before they broke. ..second loudest show I've ever experienced

They have been the only part of the team that's been great from Day 1......

NOELLER

do you remember when Johnny's reflexes got better and better ...

well, my typing's getting faster.

And I'm starting to BELIEVE...or at least HOPE

I so want to believe in Mr. O'Shea.  And *&*%$*Wade Miller must have some magical powers (to have kept making the team).

 

I have to mention Johnny Adams who basically, as in totally shut down Duron Carter 

I Love our entire DEFENCE.  Yes, very good start for Johnny.

Lofflers penalty was well worth it took Carter right out of the game.

Not Lewis?

I totally missed this! I wish there was a vine of it or something

You're right - got 8 & 89 mixed up - removed my post 

It seems like we need another vet receiver like Dressler on offense. 

 

All good.  I love all Bomber fans everywhere!

They gutted it out & got a gritty win in a city where they don't win often. At the end of the day a win is a win whether it's a thing of beauty or an ugly duck.

 

This was a beauty!!

Willy is gonna get back in here soon.

We've won 4 of the last 5 in Montreal...

Interesting. Wonder what their record was when Calvillo was playing?

Ideally Dressler.

Seems to me that the BB are much better at reacting to what the other teams are doing....they came out in the 2nd half and almost shut them down completely in their building. Great job by DC and our OC too really.

Bring on Saskabush!!!!!!!!!

Lol, based on what? The 4 wins in a row?? Nichols is doing what it takes to win, ugly or not. Willy was doing what it takes to lose. Give your head a shake.

Im no willy defender, but the bombers had another 6 turn overs last night, (something like 19-3 (+16) over the last 4 games) youd truely need to suck something fierce not to be able to win with that

Eventually we're going to need to get better output from our offense whether it's the tough thing to say around here right now or not. Nichols got it done when it mattered, but if he had of gotten it done earlier in the game, this one might not have been even close. You shouldn't go +6 in the turnover game and win by 14. You should be stomping teams by 20, 30 points when you get that many short fields.

I like what Nichols is doing right now, but I truly don't believe it's sustainable. I'm not saying Willy is the answer, but he's going to need to get a look at some point. Then again, maybe once Dressler/Smith are back, Nichols can show us some more offense as well.

My feelings exactly. We can't keep relying on turnovers to win games, and the offense has to step up consistently. Sooner or later the defence is going to have a bad or at least average game and we will need the offense to shine.

 

Montreal scored 43 points against Ottawa a few days ago.

Right now Bombers are the best defence in the league. Don't have to look up stats to reasonably say that.

What is there to say the Defence can't continue doing what it's been doing? Got a new guy coming in who appears to be an outstanding player on defence.

Add in that we get a few offensive guys back

= powerhouse team.

really remarkable turnaround. From heartless to relentless

got to credit a few guys that did not quit when the team stunk.... Bass, Wild, Westerman, and a couple of others on defence.

Saw those guys out there killing themselves when others appeared to have lost interest.
