I think a lot of the problems today come back to way too many injuries. I know its next man up but the Bombers have been hit hard by injuries this season. The Bombers are missing a lot of key players and this bye will help a lot. The secondary is really banged up and hopefully a couple weeks will help.

Just got back to the hotel in Hamilton. We were at the game, row 1 behind the Bomber bench.

Bombers got beat. Full stop. Hamilton played a great game, Evans is player of the week, or there is no justice.

Tim Horton?s Field is a great place to watch a game, the weather was perfect, and the Hamilton fans were ALL friendly and classy. It?s the way things should be in the CFL. Lots of kids at the game, and they were loud and very happy. I can?t begrudge them this win. I remember how it used to feel to beat Edmonton during the Warren Moon years.

Anyway, the Bombers will bounce back, and by the way, people are saying Brandon Alexander was hurt, but he returned to the bench two minutes after leaving the field. Didn?t look hurt.

Rider and Argo fans could take a lesson in how to be a classy home team fan from today?s game. And the best thing about this Ticats win is that it potentially hurts the Riders.

Absolutely, baseball is soooooooooooooo boring. They need to speed up the game by putting a pitch clock on the pitcher, similar to the 20 seconds in the cfl to get the next play off. The pitcher should have about the same to get the next pitch off or its a ball.

As a defence we haven't created enough turnovers, we have 14 interceptions which isn't bad but only 5 forced fumbles,  a big dropoff. Jefferson hasn't been nearly as effective ty

Yup 10-0 on days starting with Mon.
Great stiff upper lip, pip, pip, great respects for the queen.

Alexander was invisible, and then almost knocked himself out.
Rose is still the most.    Welcoming.   dB we have.

I see too many excuses and a trend in the wrong direction
We are 1-2 in our last few games, and no new players to replace the injured.
Nice motto, next man up, if it works??.  Last three games???

We're 1-2? Your math is about as good as your post.

We are 2-1 in our last few games. Or 3-1. Or 3-2. Depending on how many games you go back.

We haven?t been 1-2 in a very long time.

[Blue In BC]

On point #1, JJ, McCrea, Alexander, all left with injuries.

Alexander went out for concussion protocol but returned. McCrae might have had some pain from being tackled but I'm not sure it was an injury per se. No idea what of when something happened to Jeffcoat.

We have a bye now and we need to re-adjust some strategies. 3 man rush, no pressure and giving 10 yards cushion is not a formula for success against a QB playing well. What happened to the adjustments at half time?

We aren't getting much out of Hassell, Cole or Cooper as DI's. At least Walker had a few DT's.

[Lincoln Locomotive]

For those thinking we have first place locked up....BC beat a good Calgsry team with their back up QB and Rourke could come back this season....their last two games are with us.    We need to finish strong and what we witnessed today should be cause for concern.   We got two studs back and we still got hammered.....our D was unable to mount any pressure on Evans and he played a virtually perfect game.   Zach OTOH....turned the ball over 3 times all resulting in points against.    He actually had one of his better passing games but the turnovers were the difference.    Also we almost always gave up better field position on kick offs and our return game was anemic as Grant was not playing up to his abilities.  

Calgary and BC are both in the hunt and if we want home field advantage we need to beat BC at least once and either of the Riders or Edmonton.   We are only one game up on BC and we are on a bye week.

Hamilton kicked our butts and deserve the win hands down.....we have no excuses now as other teams are just as beat up as we are.....and incredibly....BC beat a very good Stamps team with their recently acquired back up!  Scary that!
