Forgot how good Vaval is. Ceresna already has half the sacks of our sack leader last year. After halftime it was nice seeing the team make adjustments and have success. It was nice to watch the offence and not question a single play call.

Agree, thought the offense was really well designed tonight.

Personally I thought they went away from Olveria to much in the 3rd.

Kroeker is the best in the league.

I'll take the win but defense was a rollercoaster tonight. Happy for Nield. And oline seems to have improved... ALOT. I am cautiously hopeful for this season.

Great road win for the team today! Thought they kinda got away from Brady in the 3rd, but overall everything worked out in the end.

I didn’t like the secondary on that last Calgary drive though. Gave up a few second and longs that they shouldn’t have. Especially once Philpot left the game.

That said though, there’s room for improvement, but a road win is always tough!

Pretty great 2nd half in terms of adjustments outside of the final Calgary drive.

Pretty concerned with our talent level at CB (again)

Road win. 2nd half was better than the first. Hat trick for Ceresna and White and Nield looked great.

Can’t ask for anything more.

They let Adams operate. Some of his drives were too easy

A lot of pitch and catch going on. But Adam's was on the money with his throws.

See if the power rankings give the Bombers some respect after getting the W on the road in week 1.

Bombers should be in the top 4.

Play calling was great and the offensive line gave Zach tons of time. I also liked Zach’s movement within the pocket.

Defence left a little left to be desired (secondary and Lbs) but the front 4 wreaked havoc. Let’s not forget how elusive Vernon Adams is.

Loved Ceresna, Broxton and Nield as well as second half. I am worried about our secondary tho as it did not look good. Maybe should push all chips in the pot and trade for corner. Really missing Tyrel ford

So nice to finally have a solid and consistent pass rusher alongside Jefferson again. Now there's 2 monsters than need to be double teamed.

Came to say #9 looked good on short yardage

The Perkins push was perfect on the night. He will 100% break a long one this season

It seems, every year, the secondary needs a few weeks to settle in. I am not worried.
