It's game day!

 

The 4 -1 Bombers take on the 1 - 3 Tiger-Cats.   Can the boys in blue build on the momentum from last game?   The defense allowed only two field games against the Lions, and now they take on the Hamilton Offense run by Dan LeFevour.    LeFevour rushed for over 100 yards last game.  Can the Bombers D contain him?

 

Forecast in Hamilton tonight is rain in the afternoon which should be clearing for game time, with a game time temperature of 21 degrees Celcius and a SW 15 km/h wind.

 

Chris Cuthbert and Glenn Suitor will be calling the game tonight for TSN.

 

As always, join us in the chat room during the game!

I'm pumped for the victory, but I'm happy and impressed that Hamilton came back to make an exciting game of it.

There have been so many shitty games in the CFL this year! As a fan of the league as a whole, I'm glad to see entertaining football being played.

Bombers had to settle for field goals early and Hamilton gets the big play kick return and manages to punch their chances into the endzone rather than kicking field goals, that's CFL ball right there. Game looks like it's going one way but a couple plays later it's flipped around. 

What did the TiCats do to turn it around in the second half? They were like a totally different team out there. Was it coaching adjustments? LeFevour calming down? Bombers laying off?

Didn't saw much of the game, what happened to Neufeld? How serious is the injury?

Leg injury.  Bombers don't know the severity yet. 

I ripped of Grigsby all game, and almost threw up when we handed off to him on the two yard line, but at least he made the crucial catch.

119 yards from scrimmage and two Touchdowns.

When there is pressure in the pocket, some QB are quick to pull down and scramble around.  Others move around just enough, while maintaining the concentration level, to keep looking down the field.    The latter, tend to have longer careers in this league.   Willy certainly has the look of a 10 yr guy.

it's so easy to forget that he only had a handful of starts prior to this season, looks like a poised veteran out there so far.

Not to mention...his leadership is having a trickle down effect on the entire team.

Been missing for a while where the leader on offence was the QB

Its nice to say that we've found our starter for the next ten years. I don't think its jumping the gun to say that i believe Drew Willy will have a similar career to Ricky Ray.

 

I loved the hustle from guys like Anderson & Peach, not to mention Aaron Kelly keeping up his strong play while proving some people around here very wrong was just a bonus.

I honestly want to say that Zach Anderson is our best D-lineman.... but I'm afraid to.... cuz Bryant Turner will find out.... and he'll find me.... and as we all know he has a very particular set of skills... skills that he has acquired over a very long career... skills that make him a nightmare for people like me...

No, just stop right there. First of all, Ray came into the league and dominated from the get go when he was like 23 years old, Willy is already what? 27? second of all Ray was a freak with his accuracy from day 1 and I don't see any other qb in the league having that same kind of accuracy. Why don't we just let Drew Willy be Drew Willy and not compare him to greats? He's got a good game of his own let's just let him be himself. 

Nice to see the Grigsby haters 'choke' on it, ha ha.

Good thing,  that any Willy haters don't have to

 

 

 

This one should be an easy win for us.  

There is no such thing as an easy win in the CFL. 

 

Sure there is.  We used to be the free spot on the Bingo card.

 

 

You think Hamilton right now is as bad as we were last year?

 

No, it'll be decades before any team comes close to the level of ineptitude & incompetence of our team in 2013. 

If Ray can still play at a high level at nearly 35 then we still have maybe 7 or 8 years with Drew Willy. I'll take that.

Not much choking going on...they're still finding reason why he sucks.

There are 'Willy haters'...?

Only Nate and a few others were Willy haters.

Im a Grigsby complainer... Still not sold on him. I'd like to see more Cotton and or other guys at rb.

I think this group is the best I have seen in a while that work as one unit. Five guys that get push up the field and all have big time motors. Hardest working bunch of Dline men I have seen. So far I think this is the strongest group on the team.

Nice to see the Grigsby haters 'choke' on it, ha ha.

I don't think there were really ever any Grigsby haters, more like a bunch of Cotton pickers. 

Are we creating Bomber factions now?

Willy haters,

Grigsby complainers

Cotton Pickers.

 

 

Any more.?
