    Best be ready to play on Thursday.  BC is physical from the opening kickoff and even in this game through a 4th quarter vs an opponent clearly done.  Bombers will need an effort that we haven’t seen y

    OK, so have done a year-by-year check of the game scores from 1958 onward from the cfl.ca site (that’s as far back as they go) and if they are accurate, this is what I can tell you: 1958 - Ottawa

    Chris Jones is destroying the Elks organization, he has no clue how to run a team let alone be a HC.

We certainly should be motivated. After all, according to Glenn Suitor this Lions D is the best defense of all time & we'll have have no chance.

@TrueBlue4ever are you able to research this? I would also be curious to know and you are the man for weird statistics / CFL history.

Totally understandable if you can't...

I’ll see what I can dig up. I don’t recall a team getting two shut outs or being shut out twice in the same season. I would say fairly confidently that I wouldn’t imagine a team shutting out the same team twice in one season before. But I’ll do a dive into the history books and see what I can  find (bet I’ll find more info in the NFL history books).

I will say that before the first shutout against Edmonton, BC had not registered a shutout since 1977, and Edmonton had not been shut out since 1976. And when the Bombers shut out BC in 2021, it was BC’s first time being shut out in over 50 years. So even one shut out a year seems pretty rare. 

Yeah, simply shutting out an opponent in the CFL is so rare because there are just so many ways to score. That and even when a game is clearly in hand, usually the team up a bunch lets their foot off the gas, allowing for some sympathy points.

BC defence is good... By it they also been injury free all yr...only team that lucky...we shall see how season goes but they have weaknesses like others

If we play basically even close to what we generally do...we should have no issues there...their offence even with the VAJ is all or nothing...and with Evans be more nothing..dude is fragile and we are in his head from 2 seasons of pummelings...

We are sneakily getting healthy...had a few good servings of humble pie...and fresh off a reflective bye...I think we right where we wanna be...media and some fans of opposition have written us off...that's perfect in my opinion
