Olympics started early with that hurdle

What the hell happened to our team? Who took the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and replaced them with this efficient bunch? 

It can't be as easy as replacing a Qb, can it?

I'd say ya, but "the facts say Willy was doing the same thing when he was playing" LOL

Ah,  the colours....

.........Coming on down on Hamilton

 

I bet if Stegall had some decent qbs at the start of his career, he'd have maybe between 2-3000more yards in his yards total. Amazing what he really did.

It's all 3 phases. Bombers had 21 points on 92 yards at one point.  

Bond was also added back so I think he's been helping a lot. Him and Hardrick are monsters. But Nichols is definitely making a difference. 

Man I feel bad for Hardrick.  Guy was practically crying when he had to come out for the 2nd time.  Hope hes OK.  

Bombers look like they aren't trying anymore 

3-4 didn't look attainable 3 weeks ago but yet here we are, these last 2 week the team has played very well, can they keep it up? 

Let's hope.

A struggling TO with out ray, a struggling montreal, and the riders twice. Things are looking up in swaggerville.

Hopefully no let down against Toronto, looks like a couple of guys got injured tonight hopefully not to serious especially Hardrick.

Hardrick was the only injured guy who didn't come back. 9 days until Toronto. 

Gotta give Denmark and Mayo some props tonight.  Also Westerman wad held or tackled by a Hamilton oline on every play. Refs need to call these blatant holds.

We can't afford any injuries to those imports on the O-line that's for sure.

under 80 ish yards in the 2nd half, 5 first downs 4 2 and outs. Could be as simple as the moves made on the OL. Though I think nichols gave a spark and made the best of a better situation.

Worth the 2.5 hour delay.

Bauming said there were only three 2 & outs all in the 2nd half.

1. plays #84,85,86. 2 and out. First drive 3rd quarter.

2. plays #114,115,116. 2 and out. First drive 4th quarter.

3. plays #131,132,133. 2 and out. 3rd drive 4th quarter.

4. plays#151,152,153 2 and out.  5th drive 4th quarter. 

hes just mistaken. 1 isnt a huge difference, but 3 2 and outs when we badily needed to drive the field in the 4th. 

1/4 15 yards in the 3rd quarter passing.  

4/6 36 yards and took a Time count penalty.

so 5/10 51 yards and a time count when we were deep in enemy territory for the 2nd half.

You need to get some sleep.

On a stormy weeknight we had approx 17k fans in the stands AFTER a 2.5 hour delay...

Can anyone dispute Winnipeg's claim to be the best fans in the league?

Watching the highlights this morning... I love the full tilt block Lochard makes on Maher as the blocked punt is recovered... this is a big part of why kickers don't like making tackles.

So who else stuck it out last night?... my friends and I decided we were already there so we might as well stick around for a bit... due to my complete lack of confidence in this team... I wasn't completely comfortable til the final 3 minute warning.... but I'm glad I stayed... got to bed around 1:30-1:45 am... needless to say my 5:45 am alarm came quite quickly this morning!
