No it's not. It's being realistic. 

The other team will make plays and score. Our guys will make mistakes. Carry on and not freak out over mishaps.

Get some perspective 

This isnt video games 

 

No matter how Black and Matty try to pump the Alouette tires, that car isn't going anywhere.

If I'm O'Shea I let the boys pad up the lead, let the Als cry for unsportmanship but maybe that will shut the hell out of these arrogant Als players especially Bowman and Adams Jr. 

In the words of Bellichek when asked about running up the score - "it's their job to stop us".

No, it's an actual game where momentum actually means something.

Hope we hang 60 on them. Need to be smarter though. Could have demoralized and buried them, instead we gave them life.

Good thing there's a 20 minute break where everyone is sitting down in the locker room then.

Seventeen points down is nothing in the CFL.  I just hope they re-establish the dominance of the first half again.

I agree, momentum like like lost them the Toronto game, they need to come out in the 2nd half and stomp on the Al's throats again. 

Bombers seem to have forgotten about Wolitarsky. 

4 offensive touchdowns and one defensive and only up 17. That is cause for concern for the 2nd half. That last one hurt.

Amen! Bombers need to come out in Q3 as if was 0-0 otherwise the Als get back in the game and anything can happen.

Gotta score on the first 2nd half drive. Even a 3.

Montreal's first possession of the 2nd half will be a big tell for the rest of the game

Which we were trying to do when they got the pick. It happens. 

Hope the Bombers to continue to be aggressive both on O and D. Play to win. 

ST needs to catch up. Dont give return yardage.

Even after Matthews gets his touchdown, still looks like he needs a nap.

You have to think that if this keeps up Nichols leash will be really short

As short as it is it does not make any difference if you don't yank it. 

I hope to see a very creative and aggressive run game in the second half....kill the clock and protect the ball.  Montreal has given up a shocking amount of rushing yards so stick to it!

They got no momentum

 

Big hit sure still didn't put him down

Greg Reid still playing hard.

Greg Reid you're a champ.

Is this the momentum you guys were talking about?
