captaincanuck12 Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 Anyone worried that Evans threw up 400+ yds for BC last week and BC defense shut out the Elks? We are getting healthy, but the Bomber dominance (aside from the 1st game) has been pretty much non-existent this year. Just have a bad feeling BC is still formidable without VAJ at the controls.

There’s no excuse to lose anyways. We’re almost completely healthy, coming off a bye, at home. If we don’t come out flying and win this football game I think we can agree it’s going to be a tough road to the Grey Cup.

One td drive was result of 2 PI penalties and given that the Bombers offense did sweet **** all and the TOP was hugely skewed I don't think the BC offense really carved anything up.

Bombers just did nothing on offense and bc had a million chances with the ball. He marched the ball on us all game and we couldnt get off the field. We always seem to have trouble containing running QB's for some reason. Our offense was trash too, due to our o-line continually collapsing into Collaros all game. This game worries me plenty. Lose two to BC and have them 4 points ahead with the tiebreaker and you can pretty much kiss 1st place goodbye.

Stickem Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 Pressure Evans right out of the gate....when he gets happy feet he'll cough it up....Betts cannot be allowed to roam around in our backfield like he did the last game....Have to keep Zack clean.....he has to spread the ball around and make use of our receiving talent to the fullest....Pound their d with Brady and we should be alright Starman115 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolby Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 I know BC is still 6-1 but I feel they're not quite as good as the first time we played them. We got bodies coming back on D, Lawler is here, hopefully the Oline touched up over the bye week. BC won't be beating us like they did earlier, Bombers need a big win or this could come back at them for playoff seating.

But bc only scored 30 points in a game the Bombers O did less than nothing... I don't think the yardage was obscene either (but stats r hard right cfl?) The game was ugly because the O was useless. Bc offense didn't do anything terribly impressive. Give any offense the ball back that often they will have some drives.

They hardly marched on us....we just sucked offensively that game....like horribly out of sync and bizzare...and that being said...we were still in it after 3 quarters really....our 9 penalties to their 5 also kind of screwed us....as we rarely take more penalties https://www.cfl.ca/games/6314/winnipeg-blue bombers-vs-bc-lions/#/preview Piggy 1, Blue-urns and Bigblue204 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBURGESS Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 BC has one of, if not the best, defence in the league. Toronto's the only team that's been able to score big points against them and that was mostly due to VAJ turning the ball over and over and over again.

Mark F Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) as the defences put a spy on a running qb like crum Bombers O might put a spy on Betts. an extra blocker. I guess have one less receiver. just follow him side to side, wherever he goes, the spy is waiting. someone who is a good blocker. someone that he cant just flatten, who is also quick, that he cant run around. not an original idea I'm sure. been done one zillion times.

17to85 Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 Just play smash mouth football. Get the run game going and I don't think BCs defensive line will have a fun night. Starman115, Blue-urns and Mark F 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
