Some thoughts after attending tonight's game and have a quick browse through tonight's comments in the thread: - Some people REALLY need to breathe and relax. There's going to be lulls whether it be for a quarter, a half, or even a full game. This team is 30-5 in their last 35 games including the playoffs. They've shown more often than not they'll get the job done, even if it's not a masterpiece - That said, in those down moments, I wish we'd rely more on those X factor type players to try and get momentum back. Let's run McCrae on a reverse, or a quick crosser over the middle and see if we can generate some momentum with speed. - I believe it was JBR that mentioned it, but our special teams coverage is very concerning right now. Way too many big returns going the other way right now. - Not Janarion Grant's best game, but he'll be fine. - CoFaj missing that pass in the flats for a walk in tudder was hilarious - Bailey, Demski, and Schoen - studs. Good for Bailey too after a very quiet start to the season...But also needs to be considered in context given what our receiving core looks like when fully healthy and the fact that there's only one ball to go around. - Brady O: Beauty cuts today, especially as we were grinding the clock down in the fourth quarter. - Had the thought today, upon the sell out announcement that the team is going to have one hell of a nice profit this year - Some of the non-calls on cut and dry holding penalties were baffling - Great work by our D on third down - Leggs: Solid night at the office. - 13-2. Elks next week. Let's wrap up first, get healthy, and get ready for another party in November. Go Blue.

https://www.cfl.ca/2022/09/30/dalton-schoen-makes-bomber-history-with-11th-td-reception/ Just give him that ROTY award already. It's not even close.

The non-call on the Sask blocker hanging off the back of Willie’s jersey was complete trash.

Also worth note Brady passed 1000 yards from the line today. 858 rushing 197 receiving.

Never. Andrew Harris was key in ending our drought. And he single handedly carried the Bombers in last years West final. And he trained Brady. Bomber legend.

Dickenson challenging a play to prolong his team's own agony is hilariously stupid. What a classless loser. We should have run up the score.

Olivera re-discovered as he runs for FD, then busts up the middle to Sask 45. Olivera runs for another 7. He (and the OL) is just gashing the Riders.... 3 minutes left.....Coach **** calls a timeout for some weird reason..... Fajardo still going with the 4 and 6 yard passes. He has that act down cold.. Jefferson smacks CF and Alexander picks it off - but a Willie J. penalty wipes it out. Fine is in, and throws up a prayer.....picked off by Holm..... Bombers run 3 downs to burn some clock - Riders see the light and reciprocate 31-13 Final. Tough night for the Riders - their Hamilton game is now a must Will have to run the tape tomorrow to see how Dan Clark did..... No need to wait for gin till tomorrow...

The continuous holding on Jefferson was beyond belief - beats his man and gets his jersey grabbed - no flag.

hh Legghio on the TD saving open field tackle

I'm seeing lots of Andrew Harris in Oliveira's play. Man I'm so glad to have been wrong about him.

BOL has looked real good filling in for Wally

I thought Alexander played a good game. He had a couple of big hits. We were missing his presence for sure. Makes the receiver think twice while running in the middle of the field.

The Willy j thing I think was frustration bubbling through at getting zero holding calls while being mugged all damned day

Happy to report...... that I now have gained permission to do a Odds and Sods.........from Dan Clark.

Nah, Lapo can be a HC again...... In The Gap, plz.......

Never once heard anyone say BOLO was no good...that's just flat out made up crap by u there bud

Riders were holding that too.

Yup...this team does seem to know...and have the knack for when to crank it up and take over...seen it so many times this season so it's obviously a trend with them and not a one off Man tho...would soooooo love to see this team fully healthy with all their starters and back ups in place to close out the season and enter the play offs

Yeah I not one to bemoan officiating too much.. as it generally goes both ways...but man tonight it was blatant

HH to the weather. What a gorgeous night for end of September.

1. Schoen. Bomber record. 1000 yards. Rookie of the year. 2. Oliveira. Just keeps getting better. 3. O'line keeping Zack nice and clean. HH. Leggs for a great game and a sweet tackle. Crunch: Biggie for that early hit.

Should now be the Dan Clark award moving forward

When dan clark falls in a lake...he doesnt get wet..the lake gets dan clark

Dan Clark would of covered Demski better

Just in the nik of time! Mop

Yup never would of scored without DAN CLARK

We needed that score tho...we.were letting them hang around too long Man...Fajardo is just....bad...Sanchez nailed it in the intermission BOLO has clutch reciever in the making all over him...as well as once he really gets his feet big play ability too

Has to be said…our special teams cover and return are awful right now to the point of being liabilities. In a game against a reasonable opponent we need to be far better. In this game returns are Sask’s only hope of scoring.

Demski is low-key gonna be a HOFer if he keeps it up.

Every time I watch the Riders I loudly hear the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme.

ice cold Larry Bird alley-oop pass puts roadhouse over 1K. you love to see it.

1 collaros 14/25 296 4 tds 2 demski and dalton 219 yards 3 tds 3 Brady forgotten for over a half but 16 for 101 hh the sick pick 6 by Parker block of the game is dalton schoen on back or back plays sealing the edge for Brady crunch biggie unloading on a flat completion

Dan clark made him throw the challenge

THAT is a crap call! Are the D-linemen supposed to use only strong language?

Dan Clark could slam a revolving door.

Love geoff gray on run plays lol

Whatever happens this game, Bombers should trade a first rounder for Dan Clark.

I think ZC got mad and said enough is enough

Cooper’s not even real, he’s just Ricky Walker with a fake moustache.

*Dan Clark Network

Riders getting away with mugging That was crapardotastic

Need a major here. @Boochwas right, letting them hang around too much.

They’re actually so bad it’s fun. I laughed during the Parker interception.

Demski!

Helluva tackle by Leggs!

He's gone from throwing the 50/50 ball to the 25/25/25/25 ball 😂

Man 2nd down collaros is insane. Pressure doesn’t matter. Long distance who cares.
