17to85 Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 plus depth is supposed to be the strength of this team. We will be OK. It's the same chances as normal really. Just avoid making the big mistakes, capitalize on your chances and win the game. Bigblue204 and Noeller 2

do or die Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 Would be a huge win, if we pull it off. 2 games clear of anybody....
66 Chevelle Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 the next 3 are going to make or break us probably... I'd like to think we can get 2 of the 3... probably a little wishful thinking, but hey... the schedule coming up for all of the West teams is going to be interesting... almost all division games for everyone so you have to think that they can play themselves out as well... unfortunately, of SSK, Calgary, Edmonton and us, we probably have the hardest schedule remaining... we have SSK 3 times, Calgary 2 times, Montreal 2 times, Hamilton and Edmonton... SSK has us 3 times, Edmonton 2 times, and then Calgary, Montreal, BC, Ottawa, Toronto each once... Edmonton has SSK 2 times, Calgary 2 times, Hamilton 2 times, and then us, Ottawa and BC once each... Calgary has Edmonton 2 times, us 2 times, and then Hamilton, SSK, Montreal, BC, and Toronto once each...

BBlink Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 I'm just looking at this as: it's a game against a top team, in their park, with our backup QB getting his first start in a while. Our defense (though really starting to get nicked up) and special teams will always give us a chance...but even with Nichols this would be a saw-off.

Booch Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 I think .500 over the next 4 games is attainable at worst..and with all the west teams having games within the division moving forward they will always be a couple teams below us at the moment losing too...so the 7-2 start..and being unbeaten so far against the West really helps us. Not that I would wanna go this route, but realistically looking at things, 2 more wins most likely secures us a cross over at worst..4...probably at least the WSF....
Noeller Posted August 19, 2019 Author Report Posted August 19, 2019 there's no such thing as "make or break" when you're 7-2 at the midway point of the season. It's absurd. Tons of time left...anything can happen. Wanna-B-Fanboy, Starman115 and JCon 2 1
NorthernSkunk Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 Watching Big Chris trounce the melon heads in the LDC and then again in the banjo bowl would sure make my summer.
Floyd Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 Season basically 'starts' after the next three games haha... Whatever stats we want to cite, the only ones that matter are Points for and against... we're second in both categories Going to be tough to win the next game but I'd like it to be close... Edm is very good at home - Harris will hit 400+ yards passing and no TDs in the game Split with Sask - its just the way it is... I expect great battle of the Ds I'm fine with 1-2 as long as we show up - we've already made the playoffs. rebusrankin 1

Brandon Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 I think the next three games definitely will go a long way to determining if we win the division. We play so much better at home so it definitely will make a huge difference based on the outcome of out play off chances.
Floyd Posted August 19, 2019 Report Posted August 19, 2019 Also a bit of a reality check... Could you imagine any other bombers season where our injury list includes two starting LGs, boundary WR, two starting DEs, four starting DBs, starting KR and our starting QB... And we're not in panic mode (most of us anyway...) bearpants, comedygeek and ddanger 3
