Swaray part of #1d 2.0 calling it now

[TecnoGenius]

You can tell Swaray is buying into the Bomber D culture.  Never forgetting to try the strip from behind.  MOS will love that one.

Darn, 2 & out for us.  Grant's fault that time.

[TecnoGenius]

If we don't allow any plays over 15 yards we should win without much of a sweat.  Need to keep it real, though.

Sheahan needs to work on those coffin punts.  He's done that twice tonight.  He's like 1 foot away from it being legal.  Just needs to pull it in a touch more.

I don't know where Cody is getting all this grease.  Some plays our whole DL touches him before he goes down.

Getting Willie with it

[TecnoGenius]

That 46 yard pass is literally the one thing we had to avoid at the end here.  Where's Hall's prevent-D when you need it??  Make them nickel and dime and double cover the deep routes.

Swaray foot hurt, must have one of the NATs in, no one else left in depth.

[TecnoGenius]

Way to go Lawson, not only recovers, but paws it down to the turf while it's bouncing.  Game sealer.

MTL gave up heart about 30 mins ago, so not really in doubt, but I hate sweating out these 2 score ends.

[TecnoGenius]

Fatboi hurt?  Lawson was in a lot.  Or just spelling?  I can't recall the last time Fatboi was hurt.

We're back. Re-set done.

Sheahan had his worst game tonight. He'll learn from that.

I didn't see McCrae in the 4th Q?

Swaray-Daramy had good coverage most of the night but was up against a very good receiver. He got nicked with about 1 1/2 minutes left. Hopefully not too serious.

Anybody see other nicked players? I don't think Thomas was hurt but I'll watch the game again tomorrow.

A few weather related turnovers for both teams but ours were BIG and resulted in points early in the game.

Ya, weird, with us wanting to just kill the clock at that point I'd have put both McCrae and Grant on for every snap.  Just run every run play in our books and forget the pass.  If McCrae was out we must have had both BOO and Murphy on-field?

No one ever said which guy got nicked on the early ST play.  Maybe Maruo, Cole or Augustine??  Didn't see those guys on field on O/D at all.

We were better then the BC game, but we still have a few things to work on. O left a few points on the table. Front 7 much better with a healthy JJ94 in the lineup. DBs gave up a few big plays, and a number of missed tackles. Still a good road win on a bad weather night.

True but the other teams shows up to play and they earned some big plays. Mack is a handful and coverage wasn't that bad.

It's another short week but next game is at home. Should have Demski back? Maybe a couple of others from IR?

A little humour from the other site. Updated picture of Fajardo after the game.

as he should be.

[Pigskin]

Lawson had a very good game. Nice to have him back.

Well done Bombers.....BA's pick and huge return was the turning point in the game.   Our O-line pounded the Als as we amassed 120 yards for BO and McCrae also picked up close to 50.     What I like was BO pounding back to back 1st downs late in the game....just eating up the clock.    Allowing only a 3 burger is redemption for our D and Zach made plays when he had to.    

Calgary at home next up and we should get our home field record started...
