I just find it interesting how many of the Bombers' best players were not retained but other teams. Collaros, Demski, Bryant, Hardrick, Jefferson, Bighill, Ellingson That's a real sweet list of talent. I won't say thank you - I'll say...y'all messed up!11 points -

I became a Bomber fan in 1965, two years before Bud Grant left for the Vikings after the 67 season. i got a taste of that era with their last GC appearance. But by then, the team was old & so many star players were retiring. I rememberr the 61 & 62 GC's but at the time I didn't care as I was 6 & 7 years old. So, for me this is special. My Gawd, these are truly The Good Old Days.8 points -

Easily the best game from the ol this year. I feel like kola has struggled with snap timing and snapping catchable balls. The centre impacts the offense in soo many ways people don’t see. The qb centre relationship is like a pitcher and catcher but it isn’t talked about nearly as much. Couture and the wrs getting healthy plus more of Brady running like last night and this offense will be unstoppable.7 points -

GCJenks and 6 others reacted to Mr. Perfect for a topic
Man, I don't even know know what to say about this team anymore. As for three stars, so difficult given the many outstanding performances - but let's give it a try. 1. Zach is so cerebral. Death by a 1000 cuts type QB 2. Brady O - Let's stop looking at stat sheets and watch the actual game when it comes to evaluating his performances, shall we? 3. The hogs. 100+ yards rushing, no sacks allowed. Masterful showing. HH - Hallett. No broken plays over the top. Gets his first career PBU (if TSN was accurate in saying so). Against an elite offence like Calgary, that was about as good as you could have hoped for from him.7 points -

To me, this feels bigger than that. The Bombers won 3 Grey Cups in 7 seasons between 84 & 90. They had great regular season records during that time but they never totally dominated like they are now. This feels historic. They'll be talking about the Bombers in 50 years.7 points -

There was a hilarious angle of that where Big Stan wipes out one guy and keeps going, then you see him roll up in front of Brady O 15 yards down field out of bounds coming from off screen 😂 Bryant getting out there looking to party6 points

I don’t have a lot to add that hasn’t been said but Brady O was a beast last night. I think it started last week when he started to keep his feet churning when he made contact and saw some success doing that. He reminded me of Harris running with a chip on his shoulder more than I’ve ever seen last night. Oh and Suitor; **** off already you lousy POS colour “analyst “. How about getting on board with the fact that our team is leaps and bounds better than anyone else in the league.6 points -

And I would like to point out that almost half of the wins that East teams have, have come against Sask. Overall I am pretty impressed with what our backup Centre is doing. Looking at other Cs around the league, he is playing competently IMO And with money under the Cap to add for the stretch run.6 points -
Yup...and now we engaging Bailey...we just starting to click it seems A healthy oline with ZC being ZC..and Ellingson..Schoen..Demski...Woli...Bailey and hopefully an Agudosi at some point along with Grant for the stretch run...who isn't pumped about that...6 points

1 collaros. 73% 270 yards 4 tds no picks and a first down run. 2 Brady. 115 yards rushing 16 receiving. Great game maybe his best as a bomber. 3 demski and schoen. 7 for 69 two tds. Bunch of first downs blocks and key wrinkles back in the offense. 80 yards two tds made some tough grabs really stepping up for a rookie. hh baileys tip to him self and catch for a first down. lots of Honorable mentions cadawaller with the block break and tackle the whole ol nichols and hallets hit5 points

Of all the really bright points from the game, my favourite was the running game and protection. If Oliveira can rush for 4 or more per carry consistently, combined with out passing game, we are going to be a nightmare for D coordinators.5 points -
Yeah...OLine seems to be finally gelling now...and Couture back should totally solidify it...CGY dline and front 7 is no joke ..so that was a good barometer of where they at.. especially with CGY coming off a bye.... interesting tidbit...if we crap bed and split rest of games this season which is highly improbable...we end up 13-5...5 points
