do or die Posted August 9, 2019 Report Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) Willie J. hits Arbuckle's arm to force a punt Grant, Janarion....has pretty good first punt return Nichols completes couple of short passes to Whitehead... Harris skips round the corner for 17.... Nichols has room to scramble up the middle, hook slides 3 yards short. Some rumbles from the stands, as Medlock makes 27 yd FG Bombers trying to mix up some fronts on D Janarion Grant finds a middle crease on a punt return..... ....gets the sideline and motors the rest of the way. 80 yd TD. Hecht gasses tackle at the hash mark, huge gain for Stamps Arbuckle finds receiver wide open at Blue 15.... Then he gets middle pressure, but breaks contain round the end.... .....all the way to the endzone. 10-7 Bombers D not looking good on that drive...poor tackling and coverage.... Lawler grabs ball behind him up the middle, despite getting helicoptered. Ar Buckle sees blitz (Hecht) coming and beats it easily into the flat for 15 ...followed by mid range completion on the sideline...and a FD swing pass.. Sayles jostling with Rogers in the end zone...draws PI call. Ball on 1. OB sneak for the TD.....10 point lead evaporated......14-10 Stamps Nichols hits Matthews up the middle for 20...then Wolt for another FD. Matt appears to drop ball right into corner of endzone for Woltman... But ruled incomplete.....Harris gets first down on swing pass... ....another screen to Harris snuffed out on 2nd down. Medlock FG. Jefferson flushes AB out....Roh with the tackle.... Mr. J. Grant has nice punt return up the middle and gets Blue out of hole... Harris hit in backfield on 2nd and 2.....poor Medlock punt and no yards call Bighill blitzs and forces incomplete on 2nd down.. Lord Janarion takes the punt, starts right, reverses to the left..... .... turns the corner again....down the sideline, 75 yards for the touchdown. Going out on a limb.....this guy will be doing the returns, next week... Sayles makes tackle on crossing route....to force punt... Grant fumbles the kick...ball bounces down to the Bomber 22. Stamps ball. Arbuckle has wide open guy in endzone behind Hecht...but hits the upright... NA then lofts sideline pass to Rogers...down to the 5, with halftime looming... Sayles plays jump ball with Rogers in the endzone...comes down with huge INT. Nichols starts 2nd half, with his longest completion of the day, 30 to Lawler.. Bryant holding penalty kills drive, takes away the field goal.... MOS has other thoughts, and sends Medlock to try from 56.... ...and he nails it! 23-14 for the Bombers..... Nevis having good game against the run (as usual) Some of Hecht's physical limitations beginning to show, lately.... Sayles comes in blindside and sacks Mr. Arbuckle.... Lucky takes reverse sweep...bobs and weaves for 20... Streveler on 3nd and a couple of feet...strings it outside and is stopped... At least a 3 point turnover...this O has no finish, tonight. Sayles another nice tackle, Maston knocks down pass... Bomber D has tightened up, since that 2nd quarter... Grant, who looks like a weapon...has a good punt return wiped out by holding... Bombers ahead....but still too many "mental errors" tonight on both sides of the ball... Harris gets clobbered on a hitch pass....Demski close to the marker Streveler pounds 3rd and 1, right up the middle...this time.... Harris catches another dump pass....Nichols pressured and throws up.... ...yes, another dump to Harris. 3rd and 1.5 Streveler in..... ....who goes up the middle again, like a good boy and converts... 2nd and 3 delay pitch to Harris - stuffed. Too cute by half. Bombers eating up clock...but struggling to maintain drives... Williams breaks 2 tackles for a first down, Ambles avoids 2 more for another Bighill still does not look quite right out there..... D. Jones blitz forces 2nd down incomplete......Stamp 47 yd FG. 23-17 Harris run and check down for FD. Matthews open down sideline, can't hold on.. Nichols pressured and dumps ball off again (rumbling from stands) short of marker Stamps punt returner runs into his own guy, then Hallett....fumble - Hallett recovers 2 Harris runs for a first down, then wiggles down to the 3 yard line. Nichols runs QB draw, but runs it like a sundial and is tackled on the 2. ....the lack of finish by this O tonight is glaring... Medlock puts it through. Bombers 26-17. Arbuckle hit by 4 Bombers on 2nd down. 3rd down pass overthrown! ...but Sayles gets call for IC. Some real stinger penalties tonight.... Williams takes screen down to Blue 23 with 3:10 left AB reads blitz (again) Williams wide open in flat to the 11. Rogers wins jump ball with Gaitor, avoids another tackler...dives into endzone. Extra point makes it 26-24. Game starting to look like an Argo replay.... Bombers desperately need to get some first downs on O. Harris runs for 2 (boos from the stands) Nichols throws pass behind Woltman (quite a few more boos) Stamps return kick to their 45. Just need FG to win. 2nd down pass bounces off receiver hands, right up into the air..... Who else? Rose is waiting underneath it, to collect another INT. Harris runs for 7.... Streveler pounds up the gut for huge first down... Harris busts off tackle close to marker, and over 100.... Andrew and the Calgary bench then discuss the weather, I think... Streveler dives over for the clinching FD. Time for victory formation. Bombers break losing streak, have series edge on Stamps and Moes Not an artistic triumph...but alone in first place eases the pain Not a fancy glass.....but the contents do likewise..

Guest J5V Posted August 9, 2019 Report Posted August 9, 2019 Irving was interviewing Harris after the game and asked what was said to the Calgary bench. Harris said that Calgary doesn't lose very often and were saying a few things so he was just letting them know that they had lost this game. :-)

MrFreakzilla Posted August 9, 2019 Report Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) Did you just break one of the sacred 10 commandments? To criticize Odds and Sods is one of them. If I had a bible I would quote what it exactly says, but unfortunately I do not. Edited August 9, 2019 by MrFreakzilla Added text Brandon 1
