We had them 1 and 15 on their own 5. 2 plays later they were in the endzone and the game was over

This is the night I can say we truly miss Rourke. Only chance was to match Bombers huge early punches with our own big offensive plays. Instead 4 points.
Me too

Rourke is gone. As are Kapp, Dewalt, Dunnigan, Allen and many others. We need to move on.

We do have a quarterback that has gone 5 and 1 so far this season. Maybe we miss him, It seems so many have given up on him.

It is what it is some good games some bad. Wins are great and loses are bad
In the long run this this might be the best thing for this team. It sucks but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Bombers bye week plus the revenge factor and the Lions short week, I’m not surprised. However I am a little disappointed and concerned on how many plays the Bombers have hit long.

It does set up a potentially huge game back at BC Place.
Entertainment value = an all time low

What 24 point margin are we talking about?
Lions margin of victory in their previous game
Play three times this year margin of victory is irrelevant.
3rd game could end up in an overtime tie

Ok I can take some solace that any kind of decent throw to Hatcher there and it was 6 points.

Not surprised the way this game is unfolding. Winnipeg in a revenge game coming off a by and at home. Lions playing on a short week without there starting quarterback. Remember it is only 1 game out of 18. No one has been purrfect this year except Edmonton.

Just not our night tonight. One of those games.
How the holy hell do you schedule a game like that?
