    Aug 12 - Winnipeg Blue Bombers @ Toronto Argonauts

    Another test for Kilgore as the Blue Bombers will have had a week's film on him, and the 'Pegs have been playing well lately so they are no pushovers.

    agreed - they aren't pushovers. they've now swept the ticats this season and have strung a few W's together.

    should be a fun one regardless.

    Winnipeg is playing well and has some confidence; Argonauts at home with a rookie QB, who didn't look comfortable early on in his first start - this could be one of those "trap games".

    I don't think trap games come against teams that are hot as the Bombers now are. Argos will win this game.

    If the Argos manage to lose this game (even playing at home, gasp), I will be somewhat surprised and certainly disappointed with the team.

    I am not convinced that all of Winnipeg's woes are behind them.

    I see it as a trap game for both teams TBH. Winnipeg is playing better than they really are and could be brought back down to earth this game or shortly; Argos on the other hand are the better team on paper and should win this game, but as they say "games are played on the field and not on paper".

    Nobody is suggesting that they have, but you must admit that they have looked better the two previous weeks and therefore must not be taken lightly.

    Last Wednesday Hamilton had one of those games were everything went wrong. Winnipeg took full advantage of that. They won't be so fortunate this Friday at BMO field. Argos will bring the Bombers back to earth.

    Hopefully the week off will give the boys a leg up on both preparation for Kilgore and for injuries to heal. The bye week couldn't have come at a better time. I predict a big game for the double blue. Too bad I can't be there to see it in person.

    The team went to the bye with a win and injuries always heal better after a win. I, too, am predicting a good game for the argos. The defence is getting better everytime out so lookout Winnipeg.

    The way Nichols has played compared to Willie (who was awful) ... this is a Bomber team we wouldn't be taking likely and would have a much better record had Nichols played from the start. This one will be a slobberknocker.

    I'm going with my twin brother and a friend who has never been to an Argos game. He didn't want to spend more than 50 bucks, so we're trying out something in the 200s this time.

    It's tough to guess whether Kilgore will progress (now that he has some experience and we've had a chance to put in more plays for him) or regress (now that defenses know his tendencies), but if we're the team I think we are, we'll beat the Bombers.
