After first half, Toronto is leading Winnipeg 14-3.
Some stats:
Toronto has 283 yards of offence to Winnipeg 104.
Toronto QBs: Z. Collaros 9-12,95 yards and 1 TD. T.Harris 8-11,115 yards.
Winnipeg QBs: M.Hall 7-15,69 yards and 1 Int. B.Pierce 0-5 and 1 Int.
I know it is only pre-season, but I am surprised how well is doing, -or how bad Winnipeg is- given that many,many Toronto veterans are not playing. Some are Ray,Owens, Kackert, all these starting LBs.
Lol, yes a pre season game that nobody cares about the score. Is a obvious indicator :roll: . Buck was in for 3 series.This may surprise you but this isn’t the team we will be fielding on the 27th . Not to say, we won’t be in tough this year, wait until the games count to see exactly where teams stand !
If you listen to the game, they have been talking about the Argo blitz. Particularly after the missed FG return when they apparently blitzed 2 times in a row.
I think TSN wants the first game at the new stadium , to mean something. Pre season football does not invoke the passion that will be present on opening day.
PS WK1
TO @ Winnipeg...okay, perhaps it was not aired because they wanted to do coverage testing in the new stadium?? Perhaps they simply wanted the new stadium to be seen first on opening day?? I could buy into either
Hamilton @ Montreal...well, it is on RDS
SK @ ESKs...on TSN. You would think this one would be off and another on seeing as they play each other 4 times in the regular season.
BC @ Stamps...on at same time as SK/ESK game...fair enough
PS WK2
Als @ TO - no idea why it wouldn't be on
Bombers @ Hamilton...same kickoff as above, but neither are on?? I believe that originally this game and BC/Stamps were the 2 games that were not going to be on (when they originally said they were doing 6 games)
Stamps @ Riders...again, no idea why it is not on.
