The good, the bad, and the ugly.

Good

- WIN
- 3rd place in the west
- Brady still grinding out yards despite every Redblack looking for him every play
- Vaval and Allen saving the day
- Sergio doing his part

Bad

- Dru Brown with 400 yards passing
- OL giving up fast pressure
- Wheatie injury
- Can't hope for this process and result against any other team

Ugly

- Streveler's cosplaying as a QB
- Hogan's game plan

Good news is we maintained our advantage for 3rd place in the West. Also defeating Ottawa pushes them further away from the play offs. Toronto needs to win 2 more games than us to have a chance to finish 3rd.

Bad news is how we look on the injury front with several injuries. One serious and the others TBD.

Good:
Sergio - made all kicks
Vaval - Good returns; runback for TD
Kramdi - Good coverages
Corcoran - Top Bomber receiver 1 for 24 yds. (LOL)
Willie J - 2 knockdowns and 1 sack
Hall - 2 interceptions

Bad:
Strevler - 3 for 54 yds. passing (one should really
have been a running play)
- Should have thrown a pass to Demski so
his 83 game streak could keep going
- 54 yds passing to Brown's 400+

Ugly: - THE WHOLE GAME!

Perhaps an underrated play by Trey Vaval came with 2½ mintues left in the 3rd quarter.

There was a punt that came down near the sideline which Vaval charged and fielded. Unfortunately, his momentum took him out of bounds for no return but it probably saved a few yards had the ball bounced. Many returners probably let the ball bounce.

By fielding the kick, Vaval triggered a 'no yards' penalty for a free 15 yards.

Does anyone know what play Winnipeg is calling on first down.

Allen with 2 Ints.

My bad...Allen is who I meant!

Question:

Did Hogan's game plan result in Strevelers play?

or

Did Streveler's play result in Hogan's game plan?

IF: MOS had subbed in Wilson, does Hogan's game plan lood 100% different?

Question 2: Was it MOS or Hogan that kept Streveler in the game?

Ducky · September 20, 2025, 11:09:17 PM

If, as Milt suggested, the team can't trust Streveler to throw the ball then they have to replace him.

UGLY
Nic Demski's catching streak ending.

agree on all, if we are going to focus on running the ball at least show some creativity,
Add to ugly
Chances of Terry Wilson ever getting to throw a ball during a game. the question was asked to OShea whats it going to take to see Wilson in a game, its become obvious that the answer is " a new |Coach"

I would like to add a category - SUPER UGLY

And the winner hands down is Streveler!

Obviously it's not an either or, we've seen Hogan's struggles all year and we've seen Streveler's limitations for much longer.

But Strev seems to perform worse with each appearance this year. We're not getting him easy completions which is on Hogan. Strev's INT was an example of him locking into his receiver and not seeing the extra defender.

If either MOS or Hogan wanted to put in Wilson, I think the change would have happened. Again, Terry is an interception machine in practice with zero pressure. What is he going to do in live action?

then why is he on the roster? answer OShea " he works hard"

Good
Our QB led us to victory.
Vaval is a beauty. What a return.
Brady so consistently pounds it.

Bad
Couldn't figure out a way to get Demski a pass.
Was it just me or did Lapo seem negative on the Bombers?
Too many passing yards. Do I need to say by who? Secondary better but still gives up too much.

Ugly
Wheatfall hit. Clean but felt bad for the guy. Hope he's back soon.

Ideally next year he isn't (unless as a SY specialist which he's very good at).

Nic Demski's catching streak ending.

Bingo. His days as a #2 Qb are ending after this season. I have never seen a CFL game when a Qb threw less than 10 passes, and when your OC has to game plan like that for fear of turning the ball over, which he did throw a pick in only 7 pass attempts, yeesh, you know your days are numbered
