Jefferson vs Boyko seems like an ugly mismatch.

Looks quite beautiful to me. 

Got my 33 Sellers on, hoping to see some big plays from another 33 tonight!

Simonise on the B.C. roster, anyone think he might be giving Claybrooks some state secrets?

Really excited to see our D line. Do you think BC will have an extra protection package prepared? 

Chuck and Duck, Reilly the Bombers D is on the hunt starting tonight

Given how long lapo has been both in Winnipeg and in the league how many secrets do we imagine Lapo still has?

I'm gonna predict the passing game dominates. I think the interior of the line will need more time to mesh for the run game. Big game for whitehead and jefferson and bighill. 

Bombers put up 30-40 points and win by 10 or more 

I predict a Bonber win but I thinks it's going to be fairly low scoring and a close game. Something like 21-17 Bombers.

34-23 Bombers,dline eats

I always wonder why people worry about play book secrets being given by former players.

If they knew the playbook that well they'd probably still be here.

Playbook isn't why he got cut. Unless he kept dropping that too. The only thing your get that you wouldn't from advanced scouting is maybe a couple deep playbook tricks with a very low chance of seeing those and being too slim to prep for. 

Now what could be tipped off is signals on play call if a coach isn't adjusting them each week. I'm not worried though.

Burnham > Adams except to Winnipeg fans.

So... you're all a board the Burnham train then.

Burnham is going to thrive with Reilly at QB.

Does anyone know of any websites to stream tonight’s game?

He's a very good receiver. Gotta think he'll be even better with Reilly chucking him the ball this year.

Control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, limited penalties , Harris has a monster game, Jefferson runs roughshod = win with a great tone set to start the season.

Claybrooks has defended Lapo enough times.... won't be many surprises for the B.C. defence.

I agree. And yeah I feel he is better than Darvin.

Not sure about the unofficial ones, but if you’re in Canada most service providers offer an app or website (Shaw FreeRange, for example). I spend a lot of time in the US and have an ESPN+ membership, $10/month and I’ve watched a ton of Bomber games that way.

 It’s not that anybody doesn’t think Burnham is a good receiver or is underrated, but it sure seems that Adams is being underrated.

Yup- should be an improvement. 

Hmm wouldn’t Adams be better with Reilly throwing to him too...?  So confusing

im glad there’s a debate though with our top receiver injured 

Our secondary and OL concern me, I think our OL will be okay but I’m not sold on the secondary. Really should be a good test tonight.

Goose is there supporting the boys

Awesome 

I am concerned that Reilly will break contain or threaten to and draw the Bomber linebackers up, then lob the ball over their heads to one of the inside receivers. I cannot see the Lions' running game doing much tonight.

Should be a good game. I like the look of Bombers defence - a lot of talent there. If Nichols is as slim and trim and speedy as he says he is - 25-12 Bombers. Go Blue!
