Bombers as a team should be due for a breakout game- a whole 60 minutes of effort and execution, but Ottawa is a decent team with a darned good quarterback and may be as motivated as a cornered bear.
August 3, 20177 yr comment_280933 Really hope Ellington, Jackson and Sinopoli don't expose our defence.

August 3, 20177 yr comment_280937 I hope they show this in the locker room. I like Ottawa better then most but they're not a great team and that's total disrespect to the Bombers.

I mean logic says play Flanders but my fear is they don't in order to keep Jovon Santos-Knox on the roster for teams or Alexander for secondary depth even though he's hurt. Anyone know what Alexander's injury is?
August 3, 20177 yr comment_280961 Interesting thought from Bauming: @DarrinBauming 32m32 minutes ago More With Dressler out, I expect T.J. Thorpe's role to continue to grow in the #Bombers O. Thru two CFL games; 15 catches on 17 targets, 129 yds.

August 3, 20177 yr comment_280983 Just now, Mark H. said: Good comeback - but I'm fresh out of rainbow stickers Thanks anyway. For the record, I haven't seen any team play with 60 minutes of focused intensity so far this season. Edmonton probably comes closest. They certainly have players that do, as do we. Teams haven't gelled yet. Looking forward to that.
August 3, 20177 yr comment_280989 From Ed Tait: Khari Jones (2000-04): 44-28-1,.610 Matt Nichols (2015-present): 15-10, .600 Kevin Glenn (2004-08): 35-37-1, .486 Buck Pierce (2010-13): 14-18, .438 Drew Willy (2014-16): 11-18, .379 Kerwin Bell (1999-2000): 7-17; .292 You should see the rest of the list. It's downright scary...https://www.bluebombers.com/2017/08/03/game-preview-wpg-ott/ ??Out of 27 QBs mentioned, only two QBs who have started at least 18 games have a winning record...Jones and Nichols More from Ed Ottawa is the only team in CFL history to have each of their first six games of a season all decided by five points or less. YAC attack: the Bombers lead the CFL with 48 percent of their passing yards being gained after the catch is made; Ottawa is second at 39 percent. Winnipeg is leading the league with a 31.4 points-per-game scoring average, but also has the highest two-and-out rate in the league at 37 percent. Weird one Ottawa receivers Greg Ellingson and Brad Sinopoli have combined for 76 the team’s 158 receptions, and have been on target for 47 per cent of passes thrown. In their last game, they were held to just six receptions combined, their third-lowest total since joining the REDBLACKS.

Weird one Makes total sense considering Paul Lapolice is the OC. Short passes, relies on yards after the catch, prone to conservative play calling ie. lots of 2 and outs, but also capable of scoring when they are behind. I swear if Lapo had any balls at all this team would win a lot more handily than it does.
August 3, 20177 yr comment_280995 This is how they got McDuffie.. Jeff Hamilton - The word is the Redblacks are paying Quincy McDuffie $100,000 for his services - that's for what's left on the year, not pro-rated.
