Taynted_Fayth Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 I'm predicting the deciding factor in this game is special teams for us.

Noeller Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 And not to jinx it, but no way is McDuffie in game shape right now, and how could he possibly have a full understanding of their blocking yet? I'm not saying he couldn't bust one....give him a seam and watch him go....but I don't know that he's THAT much of a worry compared to Harris-to-Ellingson all night...

bigg jay Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 We were also missing Briggs the last couple games. He's one of our better ST guys so getting him back covering kicks should help. SPuDS and Noeller 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold_Palmer Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 The good old bend and break defense never fails! 8-0 Ottawa. Offense is going to have to score 40 plus to win again I have a feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bustamente Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 We beat the Red Blacks and the Zebra's so we should get 4 point tonight , still though this team still needs a lot of work but as they say a win is a win.

Goalie Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Refs were so one sided tonight.. The fact we won is crazy... We beat Ottawa and the Zebras. So one sided. Just brutal. Ppl talk about out coaching like u were in the room or on the field but ignore the blatantly obvious stuff.. Zone D and refs almost cost us. bustamente 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueandgoldguy Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Pleasantly surprised by the result. I expected a loss as the Bombers have never won a meaningful game against Ottawa in 6 previous tries (last year's win Ottawa sat half or more of their starters as they had clinched their playoff spot). Despite the criticism in the babble thread of Richie Hall's defense, it was ultimately this group who won the game for the Bombers. Turnover for the touchdown and another turnover that resulted in a field goal. 2 key quick 2-and-outs at the end that allowed the Bombers a chance to tie and then win the game. Meanwhile Nichols and the offense failed to score a single TD after the 1st quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The holding calls that erased the TD were legit. On the last play for the D - they could have easily flagged Carmichael for PI. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is going to cost the Bombers and the offense cannot be expected to put up 40 points every game. The last-minute drives to win the game are thrilling but it shouldn't come to that every freaking game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Blue Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 I thought this was an overall good effort and performance by the team. I'm still concerned with the defense, but they continue to make in-game adjustments and tighten things up as the game goes on. They came through when it mattered the most, because for as much praise as the offense should get for this one, it was the defense that held strong to give us those chances. Thought the offense looked really good today and played a more complete game. Having Flanders in adds another dimension, basically the ability to use speed on interior runs. Then threw in the change ups with Harris running/catching. Also thought they were much more aggressive in the pass game, continually trying to stretch the defense out.

PI for a Ball 3 yards out of bounds would be pretty brutal even for those idiots It's pretty had to tell if an OL was holding or not, unless you see the replays or are at the game live. It's hard to know what Ottawa was doing, but the holding calls that erased the TD were the 'he's running past me so I'll grab his head' kind.

rebusrankin Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 I agree with Mark H. on the holding calls that negated our 4 Q td, disagree on the play by Roc at the end. Did not see it as PI and the ball was out of bounds, no way Ottawa catches the inbounds. bustamente and Mark H. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Amazing that Ottawa loses yet again and is only -9 in points on the year. Crazy crazy time to be a fan of Ottawa. With Ray being hurt... they are still in the hunt for first place!~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
