THE MORNING AFTER...WITH COFFEE

IMG_0610.jpg......

?‍?Denny's back in town 7 catches!

?‍?That Poop pop wasn't necessary, even though it was a doozy.

?‍?Randle actually stripped the ball on that Collaros play when he sacked...could have been reviewed/challenged.

?‍?Special teams, quick kick, Medlock pulls it off again. What's in store next week?

?‍?Another innovative series that resulted in a "too many men" penalty. We caught them with the hurry up with LeFevour still taking the snap. I'd love to see that more often. 

?‍?Loved the block that Nichols threw at the end to help Harris' run. And don't think the players won't notice it in film study

?‍?Ho hum, Medlock against the wind, with wind, just another day, or in this case, Justin another day.

?‍?Adams has the catch of the week this time...

?‍?Gotta love the hustle in Hurl..he really wanted that TD..

?‍?We made the Roughriders real nervous now..

?‍?Take it to a credit union, cause that Banks is busted.

?‍?"I’m solely focused on this game and trying to keep pace with the West opponents." - Matt Nichols.

Ed Tait - Also worth noting: #Bombers are 9-3 in last 12 road games and the club is 14-5 since @MattNichols16 replaced Drew Willy at QB

?‍?Lankford's mom in the crowd..

Matty Nichols-  "don't talk about it, let's be about it." Talk is cheap.

?‍?And Trent Corney has another solid game!

?‍?Emerging with the punt return game...Mr Fogg

?‍?12 yards for the Ticats in the 1st quarter

Drew Edwards- #Ticats are giving up 7.7 yards on second down vs. #Bombers while generating 3.4 yards.

?‍?57 yard FG!

?‍?Ah Moe, good to have you back making plays.

?‍?"Year of the Catch" theme song continues...with Darvin Adams

 

 

?‍?Brian Walker instead of Bruce Johnson? Yes

?‍?Wonder who the ST player of the week will be?

?‍?Andrew Harris had his first 100-yard rushing game of the season on Saturday, recording 107 yards on fourteen carries. 

?‍?There are questions about Collaros now...

John Hodge - Matt Nichols has yet to fully shed his ‘game manager’ label (to some, at least), but he’s on pace for some stellar numbers in 2017 — 5,205 passing yards, 34 touchdowns, and ten interceptions. This woukld be the second-best single-season passing yardage total in Blue Bomber history (Khari Jones had 5,334 passing yards in 2002) and tie the great Jack Jacobs for fourth-place in club history for most touchdown passes in a season.

Kent Austin’s career head coaching record has dipped below .500 as a result of Saturday’s loss, now sitting at 48-49. Mike O’Shea’s career mark has improved to 28-33 after a rough 13-28 start in Winnipeg.

?‍?Hamilton had only one first down in the first 15 minutes compared to Winnipeg’s nine

?‍?(Matt Nichols 13 TDs 4 int in 7 games)

?‍?Great to see the impact of the D-Line - 5 sacks 11 pressures..on Collaros

Love the line by Drew Edwards - For the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, it was death by a thousand Medlocks (and miscues.)

Reasonable response from Austin post game http://3downnation.com/2017/08/12/video-austin-collaros-ellis-loss-bombers/

The Numbers - Blue and Gold CFL

– Hamilton only had 16 first downs.

– Winnipeg had 402 total yards to Hamilton’s 188, and 141 rushing yards to Hamilton’s 31.

– Winnipeg only punted the ball 2 times.

– Justin Medlock finished 6/7 on his field goal attempts. His lone miss hit the post.

– Kevin Fogg averaged 18.2 yards on 4 punt returns for the Bombers.

– The Bombers defence had their best game of the season,  holding Zach Collaros to 216 passing yards and the Ti-Cats to 31 rushing yards.

– No one on the Bombers had more than 4 tackles.

–  The West Division now has 24 wins compared to the East Division’s 7.

?‍?Nice possession time, better penalty total, and won the turnover battle...good stats.

?‍? Miss the huddle on the sidelines..

?‍? In my view, LaPolice called another good game..

It is always game to game.  The Ticats have no number one receiver and nobody that scares defenses.  Combine that with a QB who's gotten dinged this season, and the game plan is going to have extra rushers on every play.  That looks like they are becoming more aggressive. and I think behind the comment.  The Eskimos won't present the same game plan and the Bombers D will likely be less aggressive to protect some weak cover in the back end.

We seemed to play more press coverage with our corners against Hamilton......perhaps because they have this popgun offense.   We are getting better in the back - having Moe back is a huge add, and the secondary shuffle, seems to have worked.    Linebacking as a unit is still a question mark...
