Bighill flat footed on crosser, and huge Calgary gain

That was a pick six if Fenner is ready for it.

That should be PI.

Streveler got horse-called behind the line and then ran for a first down, should be 15 tacked on.

If Lapo could scheme a screen game this O would be really good.

None of our big guys making plays.

Bighill needs to win some battles. He's just floating around.

Need more from our ends and Bighill.

Alexander needs to read faster. He's mostly covering turf. Calgary's early deep balls have put him on his heels.

The 2nd half of that drive was hugely penalty aided. Jefferson also needs to figure out how to get off a block. Otherwise we should put him at MLB, at least he'll interrupt a couple passing lanes.

Nice hold on Richardson.

If that's a penalty they could call illegal contact every play.

Lapo's screen game is not dynamic at all. You can read it right from the snap.

That's not a problem at all, would be perfect to run a bunch of 6-7-8 minute drives. Lapo has to keep running.

Why do we keep running crossers and screens to guys who can't break tackles?

Whitehead is a lousy player.

Great SAM blitz there.

Lapo absolutely kills the O with shitty first down calls. Run options, you've got the two best runners in the league.

Bombers need to adjust to deep ball and take more disciplined routes in pass rush.

Alexander got torched on the first play, double posts he jumped on the inside one Begelton and Rogers is all alone on Taylor with no one over top.

Apples to oranges. Bombers are in the West. Montreal is in the East with two historically bad teams in Toronto and Ottawa. Toronto has one of the worst defenses in modern CFL history and Ottawa has one of the worst offenses, worse than the 2013 Bombers. Even the worst two teams in the West who are not very good in Edmonton and BC are nowhere near as bad as those two. The Alouettes would have to be exceptionally awful to not finish 2nd in the East over 18 games. It's not that great of an accomplishment. Winning in Calgary is an accomplishment, but that historically bad Ottawa team also won there this season.

I think you're 180 degrees turned around on this one. We've had pretty significant turnover/offensive struggles vs Calgary our last several meetings. That tends to lead to opposition points, but for the most part the Bombers haven't had trouble containing Calgary's offense over the past few years in terms of points. I believe the magic number is 30, and that's 30 designed rushes for Harris and Streveler combined. If the run isn't established and relevant in the whole game the Bombers won't produce enough first downs to win, even if they score 20 points in the first quarter.

It's just insurance. 95% chance we don't have to make a claim, but we've now made sure we can't make that claim if we need it. And at that point, the 5%, the kick in the nads is going to be that they insurance would have come at no added hit to the cap or chequebook since Collaros is being paid the same to stand on the sidelines in street clothes and he would be to stand there in shoulder pads.

I agree. Those imports and then you have Wolitarsky, Demski and Petermann platoon through the 2 spots. Whitehead could only stay on if they trusted him to be the primary returner. Thus far Grant is much better at that role.

Literally makes no sense unless he's not medically cleared. 1. He's getting paid a game cheque. 2. The 3rd QB spot can't be used for a player elsewhere on the roster. So we are playing a player short. Even if Collaros doesn't know the offense at all, would we not want him to play if both our #1 and #2 QB's got knocked out? I can understand not elevating the PR QB because of cap space.
