Johnny headed to concussion protocol.

Rick Campbell is a terrible coach. Even a terrible coach can win a Grey Cup.

Ottawa...yikes.

Manziel is the most experienced CFL QB on Montreal's roster tonight. Joe Mack couldn't find Jason Boltus' phone number.

Loser of this game has to trade for Kevin Glenn. It's in the league by-laws.

Far too many drives in the 2nd half where Harris and Demski didn't touch the ball. Made it real easy for Hamilton blitz to dominate Nichols.

I like how Harris half-assed ran after Ackie. Who wants that as your leader?

Harris can complete 85% of his passes and throw for 400 yards but end up with <20 points. Hard to do. He's taking over for Ricky Ray as the most woefully inefficient red zone QB.

All I can say for Nichols in a positive sense is he didn't lose the game. He certainly gave Masoli a good chance to win it. Coming up one drive short all the time won't help us with Calgary, Edmonton, hell even Saskatchewan.

Matt Schaub. Alex Smith can run.

It's pretty clear that the deep ball was the gameplan tonight because it's not like Nichols favours the deep balls ever. Nichols hits 2-3 of those it's a different game. Clearly the Bombers have a lot of playmakers, and guys in waiting. Look at Petermann. As always, Lapo needs to simplify and avoid tipping off the opposition through formation. When he trusts his players and uses misdirection to give them that extra split second to gain space this offense is great. We aren't going through the West on Nichols arm. We have a chance with Harris, Demski, Adams, Dressler, Streveler (in a change of pace package), maybe Flanders coming in soon. Nichols is a point guard, not a Kobe. On the roster....if Dressler is out, I dress Flanders as a DI, start Petermann (use Simonise a bit too), start both Leggett and Fenner on D, secondary would be Randle-Sayles-Leggett-Alexander-Fogg-Fenner (SAM). Could dress Tylor Henry over Augustine if they feel short at receiver. Loffler can play a role as a backup, throw him in as a rover on passing downs.

Whole special teams for me. Great coverage, couple huge returns.

Medlock net 45 per punt, Hajrullahu net 35.

Turnovers kill Masoli. Also takes a lot of sacks and loses yards if he's contained in the pocket. How many yards for loss did the D put up tonight? 60? The D nearly split the difference in yards between our O and theirs by sacking Masoli a ton.

Sort of. Needed one more first down on last Bomber drive to end the game, didn't even need a TD or FG, just one more first down to run the clock out. TD would have ended it too. Couldn't do it. D won the game. D made it a game, special teams on the whole won field position battle, O only scored on short fields short of one drive early in 3rd.

D needs to rush 3-4 almost every down. Force Masoli to be accurate, don't let him simply chuck it around.

I think he needs to decide if he wants to be a powerlifter/bodybuilder or a football player.

He's a typical one-move pass rusher. I would not want him on the field as much as Edmonton has to have him out there to satisfy the ratio. He's a liability vs the run and invisible on the majority of his snaps. 3 of 5 sacks tagging a QB who's basically on the turf doesn't really make a guy an all-star, except on TSN. He's getting the numbers from the work of Ceresna and Sewell.

Also interesting that Willis is lone Lion, two edge rushers from Sask, nothing interior. Hamilton two DT's, no edge rushers. Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg pretty balanced, although most of Edmonton's pressures came in last two games.

At this point does anyone understand what the hell Jones is doing? Even if a 44 year old Terrell Owens could play a little bit he can’t play well enough to be worth the distraction he will cause. Why even waste time on this?

BC getting their asses kicked and celebrating every sort of play they make. Look like a loser franchise.

Point Douglas is even more inaccessible than the U of M campus. That would have been the absolute worst location. I can still remember Asper's pitch about having people park downtown and jump on a barge down the river to get to the game.

One easy step Montreal can take this week...get a legit freaking kicker. They are using an import spot anyway, get a guy who can actually get a punt off.

Manziel looks horrid in the pocket. I don't think he's completed a pass beyond a quick first read.

Ya right.
