Punting is a weakness for us. We consistently lose field position on every kick exchange.

Alexander looked like ZC under pressure there.

Or, Bonds will get the pick and take it to the house.

Just dumb coaching by MOS. Makes absolutely no sense to go for the singe point conversion after a TD that still leaves you one point down.

Best KR of the season for Winnipeg.

No more love and joy in Bomberland.

Why didn't we challenge that obvious pick by Ford on second play of the game? Hope someone asks MOS about that later.

No excuse for receivers running offside at game 18.

Those early season losses to Calgary and Ottawa ... geezus. That's on MOS for not having the club prepared. Hindsight, sure. But ....

Als are weak on run defence - second worst in the league after Calgary I believe.. Boggles that we are not running right at them.

We have to watch Fletcher. And Letcher.

At 80% FG attempts he's 9th out of 9 kickers in the CFL

Considering he held out for more money this season, Sergio has been very ordinary.

Go Blue!

I am in BC and since I don't have cable TV for CTV I am getting the game on the TSN+ enhanced feed. But CFL+ says I can't get this game in my region. Last time I checked BC was part of Canada and even has a football team in the CFL. "This stream is unavailable in your region" ... really? CFL is really messed up. Anyhow - at least TSN Enhanced Feed has the game. But CFL needs a shakeup.

Who actually does in-game play-calling for Alouettes offence in 2024 - Calvillo or Maas?

Yes, I saw that. But it does not address the question of where the ball is spotted when a player dives out of bounds with momentum That is a grey area and does not appear to be uniformly applied.

I could not find anything in the CFL rule book on exactly where to spot the ball when a player in possession dives out of bounds. It would be good if TSN got Al Bradbury on air to spell it out for us. Generally, (when a player dives or is airborne) you'll see officials spot the ball at the point where the ball initially crosses the plane of the sideline. Nothing to do with where the payers body lands out of bounds. That seems to be the accepted practice. So, although Collaros's forward momentum makes it appear that while airborne he carried the ball beyond the 10-yard marker he doesn't get the benefit of that because the on-field official - slightly behind the play but who still had a pretty good view - judged that the ball initially crossed the sideline plane earlier. As others have said, obviously command centre didn't see enough contrary evidence to overturn.

I'll say this - Bombers know what it takes to get to the GC. That's the X Factor. They did not show it vs Toronto this weekend. But they know what it will take.

Momentum ... who's got it? Who doesn't? Trying not to think about it but a Toronto vs Sask Grey Cup showdown would be just sickening.

Why is Rourke wearing a bandage on his bicep? It was there before the game started.

Been on a few of those back in the day.

Six points would've won the game for us. Sergio also missed 2 FG at home vs Montreal earlier this year. Blamed the microchips. He signed late. Held out for more more money no doubt. Needs to be better. That said, Toronto pretty much manhandled the Bombers and deserved the win.

Wilson looks better than Strev on punching through on 3rd & short. But Strevy always took the B or C gaps on that play - suddenly he's going up the gut and failing - why?For sure Buck didn't give Strev much chance to succeed this year and you wonder why ... I'm guessing Strev was hurt early in the season and was therefore limited. It would have been nice to see if a stint in the NFL improved his throwing but, like you said, he was hardly ever called on to do that. To me, it also appeared that he somehow didn't seem to have the legs he had before.

You know, Rourke and Streveler seem to have regressed since returning from down south. Could it be simply that Rourke has no O line pass pro and Strev got nicked early in the season and was limited due to that? Or did the NFL break them both somehow?
