Winnipeg Blue Bombers

Before the biggest crowd of the year last Saturday, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers downed the Stamps 35-28 at the Crowchild Corral winning both ends of their.

In 1993 Calgary, hosting the Grey Cup, looked a sure bet to be in it, winning their first ten contests. But they lost the Western Final to Edmonton in Vancouver 28-23. They then proceeded to win ten in a row including their fifth straight Grey Cup. That has only been done once when Calgary went 12-0 in the 1948 regular campaign before winning the two game total point play-off against the Roughriders and capturing their first Grey Cup a week later over Ottawa 12-7. During the final fifteen minutes, the Bombers scored on three of their four drives to cement the win. Four times in the first half the Stampeders penetrated the opposition red-zone but had to settle for field goals.

The most ominous prospect for the rest of the CFL is the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have yet to fire on all cylinders in 2022.

Their first bye of the season comes a week later. “We’ve got guys that believe we can win with just one snap left.” Instead, the Bombers got a fresh set of downs and four more points. “We know every team is going to bring their A-game when they play us in the league.” “The fact we were able to go that long, it shows a lot about our offence,” Oliveira said.

Montreal keeps game close against league-leading Winnipeg for three quarters before meltdown in fourth leads to 35-20 loss at Molson Stadium.

But Philpot returned the ensuing kickoff 60 yards to the Winnipeg 37. Given a reprieve, Collaros passed five yards to Bailey for the major at 8:34 and a 14-6 lead. There was no additional scoring in the half, although Murray intercepted a Collaros pass that was overthrown. Two plays later, Collaros passed nine yards to Schoen for the touchdown at 7:17. Randle was beaten on the play. The Als eventually advanced inside the Bombers’ 10, but on third-and-goal, Maciocia elected to gamble from the six-yard line rather than settle for a chip-shot field goal. But then the inevitable occurred and once again Montreal failed to finish a game this season.

At some point oddsmakers are going to catch up to the Blue Bombers, who have gone 6-2 against the spread so far this season. Winnipeg is one of two teams which hasn’t had a bye week yet, so fatigue may play a little bit of a factor in this one. Winnipeg keeps marching along and is the lone undefeated team remaining in the Canadian Football League at 8-0.

The Blue Bombers had just taken the lead in the fourth quarter with a Dakota Prukop TD when Janarion Grant and the return unit brought the sledgehammer down with a game-breaking punt-return score. Overall, the club is 6-0 on the road and 3-0 at IG Field, where they’ll finally return next Thursday in a rematch with the Alouettes. Nobody on the team wants to talk about it, so we will. In what was a game that was more street fight than work of art, the Blue Bombers flashed their championship pedigree. “It shows we’re going to play to the last whistle,” Bighill added. That 104-yard drive was special and then the defence started taking the ball away and making plays.

The third-year Alouette was one of the league’s best receivers in 2021, making 56 catches for 898 yards and 11 touchdowns. He came close to making two sacks in the second quarter, though one was negated by a penalty and the other saw Trevor Harris pitch the ball forward at the last second. Every win is worth two points whether it happens in June or November. Teams that struggle through the first half of the season don’t need pundits to make excuses for them — they need to find ways to get better. It was an impressive performance from Jeffcoat, though it would have been better had he not later delivered a low hit on Dominique Davis that drew a flag for roughing the passer. The Blue Bombers have reached the midway point of their season with a perfect 9-0 record. If you haven’t already seen it, make sure to find a clip of Marc-Antoine Dequoy’s interception from late in the third quarter. He also knocked down a pass intended for Dalton Schoen early in the third quarter. The team was playing its fourth game in 19 days and third-straight game on the road. They forced Montreal into a turnover on downs in the red zone early in the second quarter before chasing Trevor Harris from the game following two fourth-quarter interceptions. The constant honking was audible on TSN’s television broadcast, which caused quite a stir on social media. Zach Collaros threw an interception and lost a fumble in the first quarter as he was under siege from Montreal’s pass-rush. Winnipeg painted a masterpiece at McMahon Stadium in Calgary last week, putting forth one of the most impressive performances the CFL has seen in years.

“I put them in some bad positions, but we found away to do the fourth; all three phases did a great job and stuck together.” Collaros gave credit to the defence after the win — a unit that has surrendered just one fourth-quarter touchdown since Week 5. The two-time defending Grey Cup champions have one of the longest win streaks to start a season in CFL history, and they will tie a 74-year-old record with three more consecutive victories.

Short week for the Blue Bombers, who played Saturday night in Calgary and are on the road for a third game in a row. Assistant general manager Danny McManus first took notice of Schoen on a visit to Chiefs camp and after his agent set him up for a phone call with the former CFL quarterback, the wheels were in motion. Lions crushed the Elks 59-15 In opening week in Vancouver, but Edmonton has been far more competitive since then. It was the right decision, but nobody wants to see that happen. So close in many games during an 0-6 start, the Redblacks were full marks for their 23-13 win in Toronto against the Argonauts. Collaros, Schoen and Hamilton Tiger-Cats receiver Jaelon Acklin were named the CFL’s performers of the month for July this week. Very high football IQ. He’s getting better and better each week and understanding the CFL game and understanding how to play the receiver position. “He could run away from kids in high school but I don’t think people thought he was going to be able to run away from guys in college. To be able to have the chance to play professional football is incredible as well.” The six-foot-one, 218-pound Schoen is third in the league in receiving yards after hauling in eight catches for 80 yards and two touchdowns in a thrilling 35-28 win over the Calgary Stampeders last week. Didn’t expect it,” the former coach of Blue Valley Northwest, in Overland Park, Kansas, said over the phone this week. “You always hope for good things to happen to good people.
