Nolby Posted July 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 It's crazy to think we really only likely need to win 5-6 of our 11 remaining games to possibly clinch the West or a home game forsure. Wait until we get our 6 gamers back,this team will be very scary once healthy. Geebrr, GCJenks, wbbfan and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also have 12 home wins in a row with their record being 16. If the Bombers win their next 3 home games they can tie their record on Sept 30th against the Riders.

Stickem Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 Not pretty but you don't need to be a 'looker' sometimes to bank the 2 pts.........Really impressed with Collaros this year...even in his 'off' games he's the best qb. in the league and well worth the raise we gave him.....This Schoen kid is having a rook of the year award just about planted in his back pocket....Great combo....Zack and the kid.....nightmare for the opposition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, you have to pay the bills...the only reason you broadcast anything is to run ads and make money. When you don't have proper breaks, it makes it tough to jam in the spots (ads) that you've guaranteed your sponsors. You end up taking breaks in weird places and (sometimes) jamming more spots into a break than you'd like to. But gotta get the ads in...

Booch Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 Yup...wins are wins...regardless of how u get them...and even though we seemed off on offence...defense was in total control...let them have the piddly stuff between the 30's and eat up some clock ..but when u give up 7 TDs all yr in 7 games...most like you are getting the 2 points. The fact u have heard nary an excuse of injuries...kinda crappy schedule and no bye till week 11...and are still 7-0 has got to have teams concerned...you can't sit back and look at this and think that once Demski..BA..Couture..possibly Wilson are back...The starters that are playing nicked up are healed and healthier, that this team is gonna be very...veryyyy hard to beat.

JuranBoldenRules Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 And we dressed two imports on offense who basically didn't play last night. Maybe we can make a deal with someone to grab a backup Canadian receiver and scrap heap another one so we can actually use all our import spots. Personally would love to flip one of those spots back to D, either DL or secondary. Seems like Ungerer out of favour in Hamilton...maybe can be had for a 8th round pick. We also could use a legit import running back. Doesn't seem like they want to use McCrae on anything other than sweeps. rebusrankin and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 As lame as the Bomber offence was in this game, we had proof that they can rise to the challenge when needed. Moreover, we won without Agudosi , Ellingson, Couture and others. And, encouragingly, Oliveira and Augustine had their best performances of the season. They didn't rack up a hundred yards rushing each but they ran without much hesitation, and the O-line, while far from great, protected Collaros well and did open a few holes.

I think it was because of how quickly the game progressed. They had a set # of commercials paid for and had to squeeze them in somewhere.

Bomberforlife Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Just thinking about the sked these guys have played and all the injuries and yet, here we are at 7-0. No one will give credit out there, but this has to be one of Coach O’Shea’s best seasons of the 8 he’s been with us. Leading Coach of the Year candidate?
