And the skinny from our man Tait:

 

Scene setter: 

The Blue Bombers (7-2) and Stampeders (3-6) reached the midway point of the season last week moving in opposite directions. Winnipeg is on a three-game heater since the shocking collapse in Ottawa, including last week’s 38-29 win in Edmonton in which Dru Brown came off the bench to throw for 300 yards and four TDs – erasing a 22-0 deficit in the process. The Stamps, meanwhile, have lost three of their last four, including last week’s 37-9 mauling by the B.C. Lions.

The big news heading into this one is Brown getting the start for Zach Collaros, who did not practice all week.

This is how we get creative.

Yikes.

Why can't Brown run that option play?

WTF are we doing?!

Giving  Collaros the W last week? TSN is brain dead 

A game where the Bombers are on the field but not all there

Nice tackling boys.

Well I hope we play better in the fourth quarter!

Coaching decisions have put our O completely out of sync starting with the FG instead of going for it on 3rd and 1.5

Brady looked like a DB on that pass.

Perfect time for our cover team to take a play off.

This is just frustrating. Mistakes, poor play calls.

Play calling and play execution have been poor tonight

Bombers finding creative ways to hand the momentum to the Stamps. Dru Brown looks like a third-stringer and Maier is out-playing him by a lot.

We seem to be playing to let Calgary win.

 

Well this game is turning to sh!t.

Bombers need to sharpen the hell up and get the lead out.

We have no hope of winning special teams right now.  If the other team gets even one decent return we can't match it.

Looks like this game is going to be decided by special teams.

Maier is doing jack squat.

Maybe we are playing good old fashioned rope-a-dope

We’ve run the same play action double screen play on 6 of our pass plays. Let Dru run the offence ffs 

D might have to score tonight

It’s not Dru he’s run like 3 different pass plays. It’s buck. 

No way that's a catch.

lol no. 

Of course Dickie challenges he will not win this

If they over rule that call I'll eat my shorts.
