Official Game Day Thread - Winnipeg at Calgary, August 9, 2025

[GOLDMEMBER]

I don't think Houston can come back into Canada with a Domestic Assault charge

correct

[markf]

I am not one to question who they put on the roster, but I'll make an exception for

Kelly. That guy should not be on the field.

[The Zipp]

The singles were absolutely the right choices. There was never room to run.

i need to see them again...cause i think he could have got to the 30. 

[TecnoGenius]

Let's not forget this is a very good football team we're playing today. If you had told me we'd be up 7 points at the half I'd be happy.

Yup, this is a total dream game so far.  If we can legit beat CGY then we can legit beat SSK when we have to.

[TecnoGenius]

Kelly. That guy should not be on the field.

But he's a NAT backup FS!  He's basically the same as all other NAT FS (except Dequoy).

I think he's doing ok.  AS FS HE SHOULD NEVER BE ONE-ON-ONE (except maybe vs a RB!).  Scheme is the problem.

That happens when you let it go over your head, intentionally or otherwise. There is always room to run with a 5 yard halo, otherwise nobody would ever have any sort of return.

It was dismissed so I don't think that's the issue.

Read the article on 3downnation... it explains it better.

decent road half.  turning the ball over on downs was the low point...and the bomb TD

[TecnoGenius]

TOP 18-11 (ish).  CGY brought it a lot closer in the 2nd Q.  However, it's enough that if we pound them in the 2nd H we should start getting to bully ball time.

Anyone interested in gambling, CGY will still give you about 2 to 1 payout right now.  Remember, they were massive favorites going in to KO.

It's a good thing Dustin comments on the Bombers success because all I ever hear from Suitor is how great Calgary players are. When he says something about a Bomber, like he did with Willie, it's how other teams fail to play him properly when he makes a play. I'm tempted to file a formal complaint to the CFL about Suitor.

VAJ has 108 yards passing and 78 came on the bad coverage that went for a TD. I was already going to be annoyed if they converted the 2nd and 10 let alone a blown coverage for a TD.

If you want to get tackled at your 5 yard line, sure.

Both kicks went into the endzone. It would have been a terrible idea to try and make a play on either.

That was more on the pressure imo. We sent everyone and did not even hurry him.

[Blue72]

The problem with our team is they very seldom use all there receivers. how many times have they hit the speed guys in this game so far?
