Winnipeg @ Calgary Depth Chart

Good to see Smith and McDuffie are playing.

[sweep the leg]

I assume Hurl is the other scratch?

[Mike]

Very excited to see Eric Martin get some reps. I would assume the scratches will be either Gauthier or Hurl and Knox?

 

(or Harris, of course)

[Noeller]

Interested to see what all Heath can do in limited reps. Weather was supposed to be really nice tomorrow, then changed. Rain all morning but clearing in the afternoon. 2pm start here...

Rain would be good for us. Anything that puts the game in a more unpredictable environment would benefit the underdog.

I think back to the one game we DID win at McMahon in the last million years, and it was a ridiculous snow-bowl...... #WhateverItTakes

[Mike]

I just read Friesen's column in the Sun.

To give you all an idea of the premise, the headline is "Kiss her goodbye"

Friesen is honestly such an idiot.

Will be very interesting to see what it's like having Smith, Denmark, and Dressler all on the field at once. Definitely lacking height but they're all play makers.

Not sure which one is the bigger understatement.

Does a blowout in Calgary get MOS fired?

Post of the day.....outta the blue.......time to shut down the site till tomorrow.

[M.O.A.B.]

Very interested to see what Eric Martin can add to the pass rush

[M.O.A.B.]

I would think Harris and McDuffie are the scratches.

All depends on Harris playing.

If he is, it would be Flanders and Hurl

Lawless tweeted that Harris is out...

[Blueandgold]

It's nice to see that Smith is back in the lineup, but hopefully we aren't hurt by the lack of height in our receiving core. Our biggest receiver will be the massive Rory Kholert standing at 6'2.  

[Noeller]

@garylawless Andrew Harris will be on @Wpg_BlueBombers 46-man roster but he won't travel to Calgary or play. Confirmed. #cfl @CFL

[Mr Dee]

Gonna miss Justin Cole out there. But, there's Eric Martin...the unknown factor. 
Might work in our favour with Flanders in, instead of Harris. Same reasoning.

It'd be nice if Matt Nichols could tie Jonathan Jennings for the CFL lead in game winning drives.
Nichols, currently has 3.

I hope Coach Hall has something in store for Calgary's offence. It seems Mitchell hasn't had to run for any yards in his last two games. Zero yards. Nichols has had 11 carries for 39 yards. Ha, but that's only by partial design.

The Bomber ball hawks will be circling but Mitchell only has 2 interceptions in his last 188 attempts. Nichols has 1 in 241 attempts. That is a .4% rate. The record is .7% Any guesses who has the record?

It's no wonder Coach Wylie is smiling more these days. The Bombers have had 25 QB sacks allowed this year - first 7 games: 21, the last 5 games: 4

Winnipeg has the #1 scoring defence - Calgary has only allowed 1 opponent defensive TD.
Calgary is the #1 team in Fewest Turnovers Made against the #1 team (Winnipeg) in Most Turnovers Forced...
Something has to break...right?
This game features the two clubs with the fewest 2-and-outs. Winnipeg has only 48. Man that a switch, and Calgary has only 50. Probably normal for them

The thing is, both Winnipeg and Calgary love to kick FGs. They're both on pace to tie or break the single-season FGs made record of 59

I don't want to talk about the Stampeders' accomplishments in 2016...there's way too many. Suffice to say, we have to take..few penalties...keep up the strong ST play...strong D...and score when we have the chance.

[Tehedra]

My biggest concern is just that we have so many injuries in our defensive and offensive sides of the ball.  I think we are down to mostly second stringers and even third stringers in many of the positions.

[Westy Sucks]

I'd love to be in Calgary for this game!  Going to be a good one.  Go BLue

It must be killing him to write anything positive about the Bombers. As long as they are winning all he has left is pot shots about the concrete at IGF.  Honestly he has the worst writing style.  He's made a career out of making insults and belittling pass for criticism and disappointment.  Friesen = paid professional troll.

[Marshall]

I wouldn't have minded seeing Mayo on the roster this week for depth. If McDuffie is a scratch, then we only have one backup receiver...Addison Richards (who was questionable to start this week due to injury)  Also a bit of a concern given Smith hasn't been healthy this year and Dressler has been getting a little nicked up each game. Hopefully McDuffie plays.
