wbbfan Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Last time we scored over 40 points was the first week of 2014. Some thing like 47 games. extend our win streak to 7. The whole team should get 1 star. First star Weston dressler. Made a ton of big catches, Played physical and clutch ball. 8-93 1 rush for 5 yards. Second star Justin medlock. Come to expect him to kick 6 and nail every one. Third Star Tim flanders. 19-102 rushing 4-34 catching. Can you say 2 back system? HH Mcduffie finally getting us the return TD with out a penalty and it was seriously clutch. 4-23 catching, 3-169 and a td on kick offs. 56.3 yard average. honorable mention to The command center for reversing the call in the first on their own.

TrueBlue4ever Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Well fans, we had another gorgeous day for football here in River City, and the hometown heroes were looking for their 7th consecutive victory, something we hadn't seen in these parts since the days of Milton Stegall, Charlie Roberts, Kahari Jones, and Bobby Gorgeous himself, no not Bobby Gordon but one Mr. Robert Cameron, all the way back in 2001. Standing in their way were the Toronto Argonauts, who were trying to win back-to-back games on the heels of a 4 game losing streak. Well, if there was a theme to this game, it was all about redemption and finding a way. In the first half, we saw the offence, led by Matt Nicholls, do more of what we've seen lately, which is drive the ball but fail to convert those drives into touchdowns. And Justin Medlock was coming off of his first sub-par performance in some time, having missed 2 of his previous 3 field goals. And the defence was giving up big chunks of yards throughout the air and failing to contain Argonaut quarterback Don LeFervour. But it was the ghost of the Lincoln Locomotive, Leo Lewis, who was honoured at half time, that rallied this team in the second half. The defence redeemed itself from a spotty first half to shut down the Argo passing game and record 2 more critical interceptions, the offence found a way to cross the goalline 3 times to take over the game, and the special teams redeemed themselves from past bad penalties and missed kicks to produce 28 points on field goals, converts, and touchdowns. Now the Happy Honker Award is about that special play, not necessarily the big play to win the game, not the best player, but the one who did that something extra special. Now on defence, we had a couple of big momentum plays. Tyler Loffler broke up a big first down pass to receiver Tori Gurney with a thunderous hit along the sidelines, and Randall Homes had a key interception which the Bombers capitalized on to score their first offensive touchdown to tie up the contest, redeeming himself for an earlier fall on coverage that led to a Wayne Shaw Toronto touchdown. And offensively, Matt Nicholls shook off 2 interceptions of his own, one that was called back on review, and another that was called back due to penalty, and he used those extra lives both times to put deciding points on the board. But today's Happy Honker comes from the third component of the team, the special teams. Now, it would be easy to give this out to Justin "Money" Medlock, who is a sure a thing as construction in summer and snow in winter. And he was again today, going 6 for 6. But the Happy Honker player first happened on the scene late in the second quarter of this game. With the Argos having just scored to take the lead 14-9, Former Bomber kicker Lyric Haveacashew kicked off to Quincey MacDuffie, who found a seam and returned the ensuing kickoff 92 yards for a momentum changing touchdown return. Then, after the Argos took the lead again late in the half, they were so afraid of a repeat performance that they dribbled the kick short, allowing a Bomber return to close to midfield and gave them the chance to kick a last second field goal at the half to close the score to a 3 point deficit. And once again, in the third quarter after yet another Argo score, MacDuffie brought back the subsequent kickoff all the way to midfield and again give the Bombers great field position to set up yet another field goal, which kept the Argos from Wresting control of the contest away from the Blue and Gold. So for not allowing the game to get away when the Argos looked to shift momentum, for a big return touchdown and several key runs all day,Quincey MacDuffie is today's Happy Honker recipient.

It's funny because I thought he wasn't running that good, not hitting the holes hard enough with too much shifty feet. Cranked the rust off turned it on and did his job big time.

no71 Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Flanders good -- but much credit to OLINE. Also love the confidence we seem to have with 3rd down gambles. Love the emotion from Loffler -- seems to inspire. I hate playing against running quarterbacks. I love that we are the steamroller -- hang on, don't worry eventually the bombers will roll. Quite the opposite script of recent years. I hoping this is more 1990 (meh offence, good when needed, great D), rather than 2001 (many close wins adding up to impressive number, but slightly less impressive team). My memory could be faulty. I really hope I feel this positive after Calgary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty Liver Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 I vote for Nichols, he finally did what we were hoping he could and for once the O saved the D's ass. Super Duper Negatron, Judd, coach17 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustamente Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Safety is in good hands with Loffler he's my HH Player of the game is Flanders came in cold shook of rust ran real good. McDuff is # 2 and then he gets hurt Nichols is # 3 would of been 2 if he had a better 1st half. All in all the Bombers are doing what they need to do to win not always pretty not always effective but they are winnng and that's the bottom line. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eternal optimist Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 My HH goes to Ricky Foley, thanks for turning a Bomber interception and loss of momentum into a 15-yard penalty for roughing the passer. It kept the drive alive, and the Bombers would score 24 unanswered points after that. rebusrankin, Fred C Dobbs, wbbfan and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 The Stamps did not look unbeatable today although the RBs crumbled in the 4th quarter, so maybe, just maybe we have a shot at them, but if we get off to the same slow start as has been the case, all bets are off. Our delpleted receiving corps could be a real problem with the injuries today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the cfl you dont often create holes to run through, aside from some counter trap type stuff. And a rb chopping / keeping his feet moving is a great thing. He was great the whole game Dont think he wasted one touch. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Dee Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 There is no doubt in my mind that the H.H.H. award (Hilarious Happy Honker) goes to the offensive line for the marvellous I.G.F. leap after Nichol's sneak TD. https://twitter.com/tsn_sports/status/777251109693976576 Noeller, MOBomberFan, Judd and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
