At least it was a good game. Not like ALL of the games last week

Huge play by Williams grabbing that fumble...

And yet look at their run defense... Anyway, when Ottawa kicked that field goal I said they did just enough to lose. Let's see.

Sounds similar to what happened to me. The only thing omitted (and maybe it wasnt the case with you) is that when it happens you kind of know you've torn something

I know that LimJahey isn't the only one who has written McDuffie off. There are some around here that aren't big fans. Just count me as someone who sees great potential in him. Quick, fast, slippery, and even strong in a 5 foot 8 frame. He actually plays bigger than he is. That's what I see.

He's just a Rider Prider with a web site in my books. Zero credibility.

The point that I was making is that sometimes we make bad judgements because of recency bias or particular moments standing out. Fogg got lit up at the beginning of last game but made up for it. McDuffie hasnt been given the same opportunity

Which isn't to say he doesn't but either way hasn't been proven. I wonder what people think about Fogg? Because as many interceptions he's had, he actually had two of them hit him straight in the hands and fall to the ground. Do people remember that? (granted I know he's not a receiver)

There's definitely a huge recency bias when it comes to determining who has good hands or not. McDuffie has barely been around long enough to determine one way or another.

Have to say...with just a couple wins in a row I'm really starting to look forward to Bomber games again. It was easy getting up to watch them on TV, but walking to IGF was starting to become a real drag...

Would have loved to see one of Dressler or Smith back this week...

I'm guessing kickoffs with Fogg doing punt returns

Sometimes you need an elite speedster to open things up for the other guys. Dunigan was sure raving about him. Still lots to prove though, I agree.

I was hoping we'd get at least one receiver back this week. Last week, with the exception of Denmark, they were underwhelming. So Denmark, McDuffie, K Adams, Mayo, and Kohlert this week.

Do you think they fill the retirement papers now or after the season?

Sure I'd say we are "for real" in that with our defense and ST we will be competitive in the games ahead. The ebb and flow of the CFL says we don't necessarily keep up this torrid pace of whopping teams 30 to whatever, but I think we can make playoffs.

Run game. Physicality. I worry that having Smith Dressler and Denmark in the lineup might be a bit too small. But I'm willing to give it a shot

Hard to nitpick after a win but clearly if any area of our team needs to get better to become a contender it's our receiving core. Who do you have given a healthy lineup? For me: Dressler, D. Adams, Denmark (Smith as backup) , Davis (Mayo as backup) , Kohlert. Good combination of physicality, speed and experience.

Lmao such a Glenn ending. Milt miracle not withstanding

Suplex tackle? Really?

I don't think you can read too much into our second half offence. How often does a team dominate like that in the first half and then continue it into the second. It's a combination of less-risky play calling, taking the foot off the gas (mentally it's different), and push-back from the other team (adjustments) Contrary to belief it is not risky to throw a deep ball into one-on-one coverage on the sideline. If the receiver is any good he will at the very least knock the ball down. If you want examples of teams letting up, just watch some of the teams the Bombers played early this year with Willy in the lineup. A lot of people think we were a good 4th quarter team but really we were just good when the game was out of reach. But this time we were on the right side of the ball

I would have said McDuffie is quicker, faster and more slippery than Fogg before last night. Now I thin Fogg is just as slippery and is a smarter returner.

The thread title just asked if a blow out would cost Osh his job. Not a loss. Now we must discuss the blow out against the tiger cats costing him his job. I say no.

I think Cole was looking for NFL opportunities and then got hurt? Not exactly sure what his deal was but he's the man opposite Westerman if healthy.

It's either Adams or Sheppard sitting. I'd imagine it would be Sheppard. It especially makes sense if Fogg is returning kicks.
