Not too late by far. However if Montreal does pull this out, I’ll be forced to say something I haven’t said in years: Montreal didn’t deserve to win this one.
Trestman was a good coach, but last years Al’s team was showing a lot of signs of what we’re seeing this year. They have a lot of guys who are getting older and slowing down. The O Line in particular was really good for a really long time, and I really don’t think a head coaching change could suddenly make it bad.
I know it is tough to win both in a home and away but oye...
Bombers D looked good, but that Als OL was horrid...their give a F factor never seemed to arrive until 5 minutes left. To me, it looked like the Als OL was still on 2 a days or something.
What was it...5-1 in turnovers and a loss...don't see that often!
As for the overturn on replay...I am left scratching my head a bit
And yes, the Bombers D looks good, BUT, 3 men and AC still got sacked in 2 seconds! I don't care how good the DL is...they have given up 1/3 of their sack tally from a season ago in only 2 games!
When you leave AC in there for the entire game and he has not had any success making things happen, HC should have made a change. Do something to make something happen.
Bombers D took it to them tonight and they deserve the win.
Did you see his little hissy fits when he threw the ball no where near a receiver? Or how he would hit the ground like he was shot after every hit on him? It’s no secret that he doesn’t like to get “bumped”. Actually I think he wanted to get pulled.
Winnipeg owns the stats by more than twice as much than Montreal. Enjoy the win Blue Bomber fans - much deserved.
Winnipeg net yards… 350
Montreal… 161
That was a just plain awful game. Montreal's offensive line was non-existent it seemed and there were definite timing issues with AC and his receivers. Conversely, how do you let a team win after they've given up that many turnovers?
