The Bombers O is fine - Let's see if the D shows up ... it was just the opposite last week

Trestman's team has not exactly looked like defending Grey Cup Champions ... maybe they lost their horseshoes

Lots of weapons on both sides, O and D

The difference? Likely QB performance ... we will see

Argonauts so far.http://cflstats.ca/team/TOR/2018

gave up 205 yards rushing to Stamps. 

TO offence 8th. Bombers D should be able to stop them. 

very quiet at mbb.

I am just hoping for high intensity yet sound play from the Bombers.  I usually dread afternoon games as the chance of them coming out flat seems high (could be ptsd from all those LDC losses).

Oh and since I’m in Edmonton and don’t have CJOB, I hope air horn guy from the Edm at TO game puts a cork in it!

Toronto defense at times can really crank it up. Our Richie Hall defense? Another story. If the Bombers want to pull out a win it will be up to the offense to pull it out.

Anyone know the name of the Argo D-lineman that was holding out prior to T.C. along with Wilder?

I don't see him on their suspended list.  I guess he's still holding out, hope that's working out for him.

10 sacks in 12 games, not too bad.

I was a big fan of Randle - just a shutdown DB. But sometimes I wonder if he's lost a step - especially last half of last year and first few games this season his play has been spotty. He was interviewed this week - Thursday - talked about his competition with Heath etc and gave every indication he was playing - so it is a bit mysterious.

Cooper is hooped. 😀

If Nichols is on his game today, we take em.  If not ... Yikes.

Second play of the game and I’m already sick of Bowman.

This game has an eerily similar script to last week... hoping for a different result.

I am the worst... literally TD within 2 minutes of posting this.

What. The. Fawk?

Hurry up offence, trying to get points before the half, and Lapo runs three times. Wow. Like I said in the Lapo thread. Great creativity in his plays overall but his situational calling is absolutely terrible.

Bombers played an amazing half then forgot there were two minutes left before it ended.

just back home (I live in Calgary) and turned on the game. Looks a lot like last week. Wonder how the Bombers will screw the pooch in the second half? The last few minutes did not give me much comfort.

I just don't understand how a team that pissed away a 17-0 lead last week could have such a sudden lapse of concentration again.
