Nice. Hoping for a big game from our defense tonight. They should be able to get after Reilly and make it a long night for that Eskimo offense..

Just saw this on twitter ... Swag & Stagger Show ‏@SwagNStagShow 42m Don't bring a cell phone to #RandleIsland.... No reception @ChrisRandle_Ad #CFLswag

With Grigsby and Cotton healthy .. Bolton on the PR .. I don't think Moore is getting a look.

Some quick statistics about offensive line efficiency in passing situations through two weeks: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X5wgvJlt--MljxavSW3BxD6skQuGk9vf6rvdACFC97w/edit?usp=sharing

He's a WR. He's a WR that was converted to CB Probably here as a return specialist though... Something must be up with Woods. Didn't see anything that mentions him playing DB in college or with the Bengals. 4.33 40 at his pro day in 2012, not a great 3 cone time, 6.96. Sounds like lots of straight ahead speed, not as much agility. He was switched from WR to DB by the Bengals in his rookie season (camp) .. that said .. he's likely not coming to Winnipeg to compete for DB spot ..

That Leggett injury sucks .. Hopefully he's on the mend soon.

Helluva run by Harris.

AJ3? *cough* Alfred "Action" Jackson.

The Allouette's reaction after we score on the opening drive ..

Was going to comment .. find it funny how people are already speculating where O'Shea will end up after his time in Winnipeg .. we're two games into his tenure as a head coach .. little premature for that kind of talk ..

Whittaker.

Bucknor got exposed a bit last week and I suspect the Als may try to pick on him again .. This will also be the first significant test of our offensive line .. if protection holds up, and they can keep Bowman and company from getting to Willy, we have a pretty good shot here .. key is going to be eliminating mistakes and penalties .. if they can do that .. we win. If not, I suspect the Als might steal this one from a beat up Bomber squad.

Second in the league on punt returns (total yards) .. and averaging almost 10 yards a clip on his returns .. he's also fielded more punts than any other returner to this point (15, next closest is 11) Fourth in kickoff returns (total yards) .. middle of the pack with respect to kickoff return average .. What's nice to see is that Hajrullahu is leading the league in yards per kickoff .. 66.8 yards .. it's nice to see teams working with a bit longer field this season.

Calgary's ratio makeup is dependent on having a NI at RB. Cornish is out with a concussion .. it only makes sense they kick the tires.

Wasn't it the Alouettes who just released him? Yep. Posted: June 16, 2014 12:00 AM Updated: June 16, 2014 12:26 AM CFL.ca Staff #CFLTC14 SHERBROOKE, QC -- The Montreal Alouettes announced late Sunday night that National running back Jerome Messam has been released. The move comes just one day after the Alouettes dropped their pre-season opener to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, in which Messam did not register a carry. The Toronto native was acquired by the Als in a trade with the Eskimos prior to the 2013 season. In 13 appearances last season, Messam ran for 565 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 121 carries. He also hauled in 31 passes for 317 yards. In four CFL seasons, Messam has ran for 1,882 yards and 11 touchdowns, while also reeling in 71 passes for 698 yards. The 2011 season was by far Messam's best, as he ran for a career-high 1,057 yards and six touchdowns with the Eskimos, earning Most Outstanding Canadian honours in the process. Also released by the Alouettes was international tackle Charles Goodwin. The team also placed linebacker Bear Woods on the six-game injured list.

Not even so much as having a finding another Canadian .. It's about better protection overall and keeping Willy healthy and upright. We haven't exactly faced dominating front sevens the last two weeks and Willy has taken a bit of a beating. As far as I'm concerned, after considering the ratio .. the best five guys play .. I'd hate to ruin a young quarterback's confidence because he can't trust the guys in front of him .. beyond that I'd hate to see a shoulder destroyed because we aren't able to protect our passer .. We're seeing injuries take their toll on Lulay .. We've already watch Khari's career end prematurely because we didn't protect him in the pocket ..

While I appreciate Renaud's "ability" to place a ball .. His hang time leaves a lot to be desired .. Now I realize that living on the prairies like we do, he sometimes needs to keep it lower so that he can drive the ball into the wind .. but I feel this is one area of his game that is inconsistent.

Arash Madani is that you? About 2:30 in .. Worst .. Sportscaster .. Ever.

I'd lean toward Benevides if they didn't just extend him .. that and BC has shown they can rebound from poor early season showings .. Personally .. I don't see any of this class of coaches getting turfed ..

Probably need a former NCAA coach / athlete to have a peek at your game.

The team is playing to win and not playing to lose. That is the single most important difference between this year and other year's in recent history. 41 seconds left int he half and they are looking to move the ball downfield and put points on the board.

This guy be trolling .. no sense in hashing it out with him or continuing in this thread .. On that note .. who likes bacon?

Not really .. it was disappointing but when you consider that the Ottawa coaching staff has basically had a training camp .. bye week and this week to prep for their first opponent .. script their first 20 plays or so .. I should damn well hope they could move the ball effectively .. I think more questions might have been raised if they couldn't.

Just another note .. I think the announced crowd last night was 27,500 (and change) .. hopefully we can keep rolling and have the fans rally around this team.
