Brady with another 100 yard game. He must be getting close to passing AH33 for most 100 yard games.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

Harris had 29 and I believe Brady now has 26.

First impressions:

UND band was exceptionally entertaining.  Their formation precision could teach our D a thing or 2.  They also stayed post-game and played a bunch more songs on the field with everyone standing right there with them, including us!  No one booed.  My kids loved it.  Best halftime show ever, outside a GC?

Super great game.  I knew we could pull it off... even won $$ on it!  That's the type of game we expect from the Bombers.  Keep it up.  SSK is ripe for the picking with all of their injuries and Trevor playing like Brohm.  We could easily be 2nd in the W in 3 weeks.

Looked like everyone in the stands was having a great time.  Our little section was buzzing.  High 5s everywhere.

Good job WFC!
Never go full Johnston!

*** someone get this info to WFC, too important to wait for Tecno Takes:

1Q3:08 The Condell-cam has our freakin' call chart showing right on the wall with fish-eye lens!  Holy Moses!!  Someone do something about that!  Our guys need to see what the TSN booth cam is going to look like before they start the broadcast!  I can read everything, and so can the opponent!  I really hope they change the numbering scheme up every game or we could be screwed by cheatin' teams.
Never go full Johnston!

whiff  by Kelly on Tyler Snead td.he actually seems to knock down  Moxey who is about to to tackle Snead.

Why he's a starter is a puzzle.

Otherwise known as the guy worse than Kelly if we're applying Singer / Cobb logic (although I'm being a bit unfair there and know it).

O'Shea needs to get more comfortable with playing his younger players. There were a few times Vaval was beat cold but recovered because he's the superior athlete. Moxey and Nichols can both sit for the rest of the year.

Maybe everyone doesn't need to be 32 years old.

It was an interesting game with turnovers and near turnovers. There was some of everything in this game.

The offence kept the Als off the field which is not an easy thing to do. The defence made some good plays.

I don't remember Alexander being such a whiny baby when things don't go his way. Bombers got into his head early. I am glad he didn't suffer a serious injury.

He's easily the weakest part of this team. I'm cutting the bombers some (reggie) slack though because we're down to our third string safety.

Yes, he's total butt out there, but in no world would we be starting him if we had our preferred options. In that sense I guess he's doing ok.

He reminds me of Roc. Before we cut Roc he would generally be in the right place but had no ability to do something there! Never turning to play the ball. Weak tackler, etc.

Kelly was fine as extra safety in the max zone look we love so much. But he can't be left alone like we've been doing. He may get better, but we're talking a couple of years, not this season!

At this point I'm not convinced he's a better starter than Hallett, who was pretty bad himself in the couple of starts he got. I know Hallett at least will blow a dude up if he's in the general vicinity.

Best game we've played in about 3 years. Looked like a great team against a great team for the whole 60 minutes. More of that please!
Plan for the worst. Hope for the best.
