November 8, 20222 yr comment_607212 I remember that play very well.....I'm sure Demski does as well....The reaction from Nic after he coughed up that one in the endzone was 'geez...did I just gift those toads a sixer...that won't ever happen again' ...AND it won't

November 8, 20222 yr comment_607218 staying with a buddy this weekend, when we fly into Wpg, and we plan on watching both the last two WF's..... that Duke "catch" is gonna make me sick to my stomach all over again. The Nick Taylor knockdown, without taking a PI, however......

November 8, 20222 yr comment_607221 interesting to say the least, and kinda funny considering all the flack and complaining that occurred about our apparent weak secondary...quietly and efficiently just get the job done with no flash and boasting...much like the team as a whole has done week to week for past several years the Lions have scored 33 of their 58 regular season touchdowns through the air. On the opposing sideline, the Bombers defence has allowed a league-low 19 passing touchdowns this season. Additionally, Winnipeg allowed the second-fewest yards per attempt (7.8), tied BC for the fewest passing yards allowed per game (253.6) and have held opposing quarterbacks to a league-low 65 per cent completion percentage.

Looking at those numbers, BC would be better off focusing their passing attack on the 10-20 yard range instead of the -5 to 0 yard range.

Man how much did that Hamilton game skew the numbers?

November 9, 20222 yr comment_607288 Hoping number 5 is well rested and ready to go. If he gets pressure early it will be a tough game for Rourke. Edited November 9, 20222 yr by bryan35

He's going to throw quick screens all day long. It will just be a race to see if if he gets it out on time and how many rourking the passer penalties we take.

He's a first read guy...it's taken away, or not there....he is average and basically tries to buy time to chuck it up and hope his guy beats the one on one jump....or hoped he got a guy in behind if db lost coverage....If his mobility is limited...like it was, and likely will be worse as he won't have "healed" any more than what he was, and is likely in worse shape...then that chuck and duck game plan will be less effective. I look for us to use a lot of combined man coverage, and jamming his first read at the line....and a lot of pressure early to have him rushing things...pretty much what we have done before...just amped up a bit

November 9, 20222 yr comment_607311 The key is always that we need to score more points than them after 60 minutes. Only Saskatchewan has found a way to screw that strategy up.
November 9, 20222 yr comment_607313 Great piece from Our Man Tait https://www.bluebombers.com/2022/11/09/western-final-tale-of-the-tape/

I dont see BC holding us under 25...under 30 I think will be a stretch....so they are going to have to roll all over our defense....and cant see that happening in less than ideal conditions....didn't see it in ideal conditions, so the task is more daunting for them...Home field...vet experience...been there before...and the quiet confidence and the goal of going 1-0 again I think puts us over the top...we are rested....healthy basically and just played them 2x...and have had 2 weeks basically to prepare and scheme...would take a major epic dropping of the ball, and dumb play along with getting zero breaks all game for us to fail...then again...on any given sunday....will be a gooder none the less

Being home with that rowdy crowd on D will help!!
November 9, 20222 yr comment_607318 From Tait's piece, we averaged over 31 in the final 14. At the same time, we only gave up 300+ passing yards twice. If we execute on offense as we have, I don't think BC beats us.

I’m also hoping the officials and command center don’t play a big part in this game… You can guess what result most people outside of Winnipeg would like to see.
