Winnipeg @ Ottawa

Yes, we have lost a weapon in Grant.

Big time. But hopefully McCrae can build off the success he had last week on return duties.

I'd like to see Agudosi have a big game.

[Blue In BC]

Only one change - Agudosi for Grant (on 6-game). Oh and the return of Dru in the lineup.

Well that sucks although I suppose he could come off early. That said, he could be gone even longer.

I hope Agudosi has a good game but I'd expect McCrae to get more reps on offence than him. I'd like to have a dedicated returner so adding Agudosi is not a direct resolution. Time to be considering whether any of our PR players might be a longer term fix. I'd expect some shuffling on our PR shortly.

A few players on IR will be back in the next two weeks, so our rosters will be under going changes. Just a guess but next week might be time to look at a couple of new PR faces before some vets return from IR.

McCrae will slot directly into Grant's spot, and might see spot O duties.  And I'm fine with that.  Last thing we need is a repeat of what happened to Grant.  Agudosi will do fine on O, and hole that place until Lawyer gets his legal woes remedied.

Not that depth charts are always right but McCrae is shown as a starting SB and Agudosi is a back up behind Bailey.

I expect returns to be done by committee. Possibly Holm and ADS will see some work there on punts as well as McCrae on K/O's.

I think McCrae is best used in committee with a guy like Agudosi. Bottle his speed and keep him fresh. Agudosi can come in and provide a completely different play style with Bailey working in McCraes spot

Ottawa has always played us tough and I expect the same tomorrow....it might seem easy to look past them but if we do it would be a mistake.    I doubt the Bombers as experienced as they are will fall into this trap....

our offense just doesn?t have to commit any turnovers, and our defense and special teams will outscore their offense

[Throw Long Bannatyne]

Time for Zach to work out the details with Agudosi and use him effectively in the red zone to score a few TD's, time is running out to establish him as a receiver worth keeping around for next season, which is disappointing as I think he could have a much greater impact.

Next year is next year. Holding onto a prominent role on the AR in 2023 is the question. If and when Lawler shows up, he has no guarantees of staying on the roster.

It's a good game to make a statement.

Just saying with McCrae stealing his reps and Lawler's return somewhere on the horizon, Agudosi's window to impress is diminishing rapidly.  If he ends the season on the PR, that will be his last straw.

This at a minimum would lead to victory. RB offence will likely have a hard time against our D. Willie has another big day I am willing to bet.

Not disputing that but Lawler and a healthy Grant make getting Agudosi or McCrae onto the roster difficult. Either could have a 200 yard game today and that would still be true. Roster size and ratio. Not enough room for everybody.

BO20 having a tough day. Bombers 11 yards rushing.
