Noeller Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 We have a couple quasi GDTs going, but here's an official once since someone complained about the lack thereof last week.... 3pm CST -- Andrew Harris calls this a "must win" game.....win and you lock up a home playoff game and can officially rest as many people as you need until Sunday November 12th! Last I heard you guys were expecting Mix Of Sun and Cloud, High +3....not a GREAT forecast, but it is what it is. Hope to see lots of folks out today makin' IGF as loud as possible. Let's get it done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolby Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 If we don't absolutely throttle the Lion's today then we've got no chance in the playoffs. Bc should be playing a bunch of backups for a job next year and we're playing our starting roster. Winnipeg 41-Bc 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 Bombers 26, Lions 18. Shouldn't be all that close, but with Hall's bend-then-break defence, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted October 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 Fwiw, Neufeld listed here as LG for Bond, but Hardrick still in at RT: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coach17 Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 I read a tweet yesterday, can’t find it now, where Hardrick told one of our reporters that he was definitely playing Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlue Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 Hardrick is in, Bond is out. FG is also out. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 So Coates for JFG. Patty for Bond. Does that mean Poop and Nevis starting? How about Hurl benched? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Dee Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 At the very least, LaPo should make this happen... Matt Nichols ranks #3 in the CFL with 4,442 passing yards and is one of just three QBs to start every game for his team in 2017. He needs 558 yards to become the third Blue Bomber QB to surpass the 5K mark (Khari Jones 2002, Kevin Glenn 2007). Winnipeg - The Bombers enter Week #19 as the CFL top scoring team at 31.5 points per game and 504 in total. Their offence is also #1 at 28.0 points on average. The last time Winnipeg led the CFL in total points was back in 2001. They have been #1 just that one time since 1994. BC - The Lions are the only team that has yet to score at least 10 points in the 1st Quarter in 2017. Overall, BC has just 58 points in the 1st Quarter, #9 in the CFL compared to Winnipeg at 83 points (#5). BC has been held to 3 points or less in the first 15:00 on 8 occasions this year including the last two games. Winnipeg also leads the CFL in fewest penalties drawn (97) and by a large margin being the only team under 100. They have just 18 penalties on their Special Team cover and return units, 8 fewer than any other team. The Blue Bombers rank #1 in covering punts allowing just 9.1 yards per return. In contrast, BC is #9 at 13.4 yards per opponent punt return. It’s OK to put the boots to the Lions today Big Blue. Do it! For the UU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) Very good to see my complaining about no game thread paid off. Squeaky wheel! Other than Montreal, there are no gimmee games, as Hamilton / Ottawa showed yesterday.. Hope to see a wall of Poop /Nevis. Think we will see more throws to Givens in this game, he earned it. O line was fine last game with Neufeld. Edited October 28, 2017 by Mark F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather start both of them and sit of our underperforming receivers. Having Poop and Nevis starting, or Hurl sitting would be huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USABomberfan Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 I hope Nichols can throw good rolling out to his left cuz I'm thinking we need to do that to avoid exposing Hardrick's vacancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like JFG, probably more than Coates, but love the message being sent that working hard at practice can get you a starting spot. Don't think Coates has looked out of place this year. JFG has done a good job too, but this might also rest him or cause him to step up his game when he's back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, is the message on defense then play badly because you get to keep your spot no matter what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
