Wouldn't be a win without someone throwing shade. If we won 99-3, the script would read something like "Don't expect us to score that much next time. We got lucky" Edited November 4, 20177 yr by WBBFanWest

How did you like the 54 yard FG Medlock kicked with an ice-cold, soggy, pigskin on a snow covered, frozen field? Having kicked a few footballs I can tell you that was no small feat.

November 4, 20177 yr comment_302280 Actually T Bor, you're right. If our offence, defence, and special teams didn't out perform the Stamps, there is no way we would have won that game.
November 4, 20177 yr comment_302287 Buckley gave up 14 pts (one pick 6 and one failure to read blitz which led to a fumble recovery and TD by T.0) the rest was FGs by Medlock. Calgary also had at least one TD nullified by holding. So as much as I absolutely LOVE watching Bombers smack the Stamps - honestly it was just as much Calgary's poor play as it was Bombers dominating. They did play with more energy than Stamps, for sure. Had more to lose I guess.

I was impressed how the Bombers handled the cold. And punched the Stamps in the mouth.

Did you see how Ian Wild just blew by LT Randy Richards on Buckley's sack & fumble? It wasn't even close. Edited November 4, 20177 yr by SpeedFlex27
November 4, 20177 yr comment_302299 It's always fun around here. When we lose, everyone sucks. When we win everyone was great. I didn't say that we didn't deserve to win or that the points scored by the defense don't count or that it's easy to kick a 52 yard FG in the cold or that there was some sort of 'but' that we won. I simply said that our offense only scored 6 points and their offense only scored 3 points and they would have scored 6 if they'd taken an easy FG instead of going for it on 3rd down and folks tripped all over themselves making up things I didn't say. Par for the course.

November 5, 20177 yr comment_302392 Our D flat out won that game, in every aspect. Only reason we didn't blow them out earlier, was an pretty inept offense, pivoted by a 3rd string QB at best.

I don't know if anyone else saw this, but just behind the Bomber bench a member of the secondary stamped out the message "Save Richie's job!" in the snow.

November 5, 20177 yr comment_302417 Does anyone ever correlate one teams "bad" play which resulted in the other team winning may be a direct result of the play of the winning team making them look bad?

Depends on the play. That is, evaluate each play to make that determination you are raising. Edited November 5, 20177 yr by HardCoreBlue
November 5, 20177 yr comment_302421 ........Spoiler alert ? This content contains personal observations... ??I’m beginning to think that that our defence was built specifically for this type of game. The weather conditions fed right into the kind of game that the Bombers are strong at. Plenty of pressure up front, plug the running gaps, cover the deep threat and hover in position to get the turnover. Well executed. ??Love Westerman, but Okpalaugo and Jeffcoat looked dynamic out there, and, they were having a ball. Plus 5 sacks. ??Superb effort by Andrew Harris, but nothing else is to be expected by him.. ??The big guy (Messam) couldn’t get the proper leverage to do anything out there, and we were all over him. Not built for those conditions. ??Scary first thoughts. On the initial kicks, Fogg seemed to have more trouble foot wise than Finch...but that did change. ??When did I know we would win? Right after the pick six.. ??7 works for me. As in 7 sacks and 7 turnovers.. Calgary had allowed only 23 sacks in the last 17 games... ??QB efficiency Winnipeg 88% Calgary 34.7% ??41 defensive tackles for the Blue. One more than Singleton normally gets ? CFL- The CFL has provided in-depth penalty information since 2009 breaking them down by Offence, Defence and Special Teams. The Bombers have committed just 17 penalties on Special Teams coverage and return units in 2017 and that is by far the lowest since recording began in 2009 Calgary - They have scored just 3 offensive TDs in their last 45 drives. Winnipeg - They have scored just 4 offensive TDs in their last 52 drives. Winnipeg’s possession time increased by 10 minutes this last game against Calgary. (22 to 32) ??You have to ask...would LaPo seriously consider working for Reed? LaPo doesn’t like turnover(s) ??Not a bad effort by #33.. ??Decent game by LeFevour, but still not convinced Davis couldn’t have done the same..

Plenty of pressure up front, plug the running gaps, cover the deep threat and hover in position to get the turnover. Well executed. Agree. The weather conditions made it hard for the Stamps to beat us with the kind of plays we seem most vulnerable to. Even if BLM had played I doubt the result would have changed much. I am much more concerned with Edmonton and specifically Reilly's ability to burn us though. He ain't Buckley and his receivers are very good at coming down with those jump balls. Edmonton's O-line looked very good against the Riders and easily moved them off the line of scrimmage. I hope Nevis is okay and I wish Westerman was ready.
