Quote from: Tecno on October 31, 2026, 09:00:27 PMWatching the highlights in the BC/SSK halftime... that Demski corner route was a sweet route.  Everyone thought that was an out at the GL.  No one stayed with him for the corner.  Sweet.

Kudos to OL and blocking giving Dru time (finally!) for that double-move.  The pressure attempt must have been insane.

Sanchez: odds on WPG winning "will be -5011".  LOL.  Reference to Milt's post-game comment.


Here it is.

Thanks so much GBG for all of the vids on the vid thread all season.  Saves me so much time and lets me watch everything when I get some spare moments.  And I can see what I've already watched by marking them as "liked" after.  Great feature.

Boy, MOS really tasty in the post game! Ed probably sitting there whispering to the tor and mtl media like "don't ask him that"!

Seems every game we win theres a lot of mistakes including this one, but credit to the club for the end result. Its no wonder OShea is testy after a win having reporters focusing on those plays

Just re-watched the game. Like most game there were plays on both sides that could have gone the other way. Lots of turning points.

M. Williams won the battle in the end zone forcing FG's instead of TD's. Yes exceptional plays but inches from going against the Bombers.

Both teams had some wide open receivers that were misses or near misses that could have had big impacts.

Speaking of big impacts that hit on  White and the subsequent strip on Kelly resulting in a Bomber TD. WOW. Talk about ups and downs during a game.
No more excuses

How big would have that drop by Nield late in the fourth quarter been had Grant not fumbled. Nield is simply dropping way too many passes in crucial situations [see Ottawa game in Ottawa].

Got to agree on that one. I think Nield was the biggest waste of a signing by us in 2026.

Quote from: gordo on October 31, 2026, 08:55:25 PMWow what a fabulous game!

Was going to say Drew Brown should open a bakery but all is forgiven with that great throw to win the game.

And so nice to see Nic Dempski get the TD and extra point. Another Bison key contributor.

I would have said no chance if you told me we'd have 4 turnovers and get out kicked but the playoffs are an entirely different animal and the Bomber experience is a even more of a factor now.  No panic in these guys.

Montreal is beatable. Bombers will be in the Grey Cup.





Is Davis Alexander's hammy still bothering him? If our DL can get to him early and often, he gets frustrated and that would be a key. Knock him down and maybe annoy his hammy.  I don't wish injuries on players, but if it throws him off, it would be to our advantage.

That was an atrocious drop, beautiful pass by Brown, hit him in the hands standing still, no excuse for dropping that none. Agree he's the biggest FA signing bust and we'll be moving on from him for sure.

MOS has got such great emotional control and high football IQ on how the game works and how the players prepare for games. He never bites on any of the very leading questions the reporters throw at him, he just stays focused on the task at hand, doesn't worry about last years playoff lost, as he says its irrelevant, and it is.

I love his mindset and believe he'll have our guys ready to upset the Als in Montreal
