Nov 12 - Blue Bombers at Lions

[Will]

I think the Blue Bombers pull off an upset at the dome.

I think the Blue Bombers pull off an upset at the dome.

With two teams so evenly matched, it is tough for one to beat the other three times so I am picking the Lions in this one.

[argolio]

I think the Lions will roll unless Andrew Harris has a big game.

[Ron]

I've got the Lions. Wasn't too impressed with the Bombers just barely beating Ottawa last week in a must game.

[Argo]

Lions.

[AngeloV]

I think the Bombers will win, but hope I'm wrong. I think Bombers are the worst match up for the Lions as the Lions fall in love with the deep ball, and the Bombers are tough to beat that way. Last meeting they forced a few turnovers and I expect the same. Jennings threw 5 picks in the last back to back meetings against the Bombers last month.

Wally has shown some faith in the run game at times this year, so if they go to that early, it could set-up better pass attack.

LaPo OTOH will abandon the run game in an instant if it doesn't work early - even with a good back in Harris.

Match-up of the 2 QBs there - got to go with Jennings and maybe some big plays from Arcenaux, Burnham, Gore. Nichols is iffy but could still have a big game I guess? Bombers have the better D and might win with turn-overs/big plays there. Medlock vs, old guy McCallum if it comes down to FG kicking = another path to Bummers victory.

[Argo57]

I'm going with Wally and the Lions.
Should be a great game!!

Hope the Lions advance in front of a big crowd at BC Place.

So Gurley's not even dressing for this game - injured or just scratched ?

Head case.

Head case.

The return of Darvin Adams.

Not sure how big the crowd will be tomorrow in B.C. Some on lionbackers.com are suggesting a crowd no bigger than 22k (not terrible) and perhaps only in the teens (not so good) for the big game. Conversely, I believe that the game in Hamilton has been sold out for a few days.

Hamilton game not sold out, just bought a pair about 5 minutes ago.

The return of Darvin Adams.

Gurley is easily better than Adams IMO, but Adams has more Bomber game & play-book experience and knowledge.

I see Feoli-Gudino is now listed at a WR spot where Kohlert was starting most of the year, with Kohlert (after drops problems) listed as a back-up slotback. Not sure why Gurley couldn't be starting at the wide-out spot they have Feoli listed at ? The Bummers have been a mostly 7 NI only need apply gob thinking squad, and for this game they have: 2 NI O-lineman + Harris & Feoli-G for 4 on offence; plus Westerman, Shologan and Loffler as 3 starting NIs on D. A rotating combo of Trent Corney at DE and Sherman at OLB could easily have made for a 4th NI on D for them and allowed for another import like Gurley to play receiver.

Yeah, I saw on Twitter that there are fewer than 100 seats left.

A lot of empty seats at THF today Ravi.

[Argo57]

Wow!!
So far so good for Winnipeg.

[argotom]

Awesome game and yet another late game heroics by Jennings.
At what 23 years old he is the future of the league.
Definitely either 1 and 1a with Mitchell.
