Better late than never with the highlight package! Great win by the Lions that was ended by running out the clock. Don't see that much anymore in the CFL.
Oh you LOVE to see it #GoLionsGo ! I said this in week 4 last year when it was a battle of undefeateds and I think it is even more applicable this year. To slightly misquote a certain unseen major motion picture star, Winnipeg, "Your time is up, our time is now..."
I am an old man and I say what I say..lol This game had more than most people think. I knew going in it would be a close game. WPG perenial powers vs BC still trying to get the groove. Forget about the game. and the final score. BC could have scored another TD but instead VA2 took a knee to run out the clock. One word...RESPECT!
American speaking here. It seems like Winnipeg always has the most hype atmosphere in the CFL. It's like they're the Kansas City Chiefs of the CFL. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah the team and their fans have always gone all in on atmosphere. Even when they have not exactly been the best they still act and trash talk like they are. I mean it was from an interview with a Winnipeg player that the term "Banjo Bowl" was born...
Great game. Winnipeg... 0-3 for the first time since 2012. Two home losses in a row for the first time since 2018... injuries causing too much trouble.
Competitive game as expected. But a tough loss for Winnipeg. They are just not the same. Kenny Lawler being out among other injuries are huge right now
Since I only saw the highlights, can some enlighten me on why the first half ended with :01 seemingly left on the clock? Did the Bombers mismanage the clock or something? They were in chip shot field goal range -- and only lost by 2.
Absolutely it breaks down like this, before the play the refs asked the timekeeper to reset the clock from 4 seconds to 5. Then when the plaay was snapped the clock didn't start for like 2 seconds AFTER the ball was snapped. So when the play was over and the clock read :01 it should have been at zeros. Luckily it was a potential scoring play and all scoring (or even potential scoring plays) are automatically reviewed by the command centre so they realized the clock SHOULD have been at zeros BEFORE the play was over and called it half time and everyone went to the locker room while the clock still read :01. In answer to your second question yes, Winnipeg ALSO mismanaged the clock, instead of going for a field goal with 5 seconds left they chose to try a passing play (because it was only 2nd down), the QB, however took too much time trying to escape pressure and find an open man, so was out of time when the incomplete pass was thrown so they couldn't even try for a field goal then. Also also to address your question about only losing the game by 2 points, that is deceptive because with about 55 seconds left BC had the ball on the Winnipeg 1 (at 1st down) and could have easily punched it in for a TD with two tries OR kicked an easy field goal. Instead they took a knee three times, so while Winnipeg TECHNICALLY only lost by 2 points, that missed chance at a field goal at the end of the first half wasn't the deciding factor, since BC decided to conserve their players health and not run up the score when they had a chance to do so. (Which imho was a true class act, since playoff position can be easily decided by points against your opponent, it is in fact the first tie breaker in the CFL.)
Bombers...what the hell! Good game anyways you guys. I live in northern minnesota so my two teams are the Vikings since 1976 (sigh) and the Bombers since 1988. The Bombers give me a lot less stress. Go Blue.
Getting going, for the Bombers is like starting an unplugged diesel in - 30 , in Manitoba. But they did perform better than the first two games. Defence??? I did notice that Collaros has no time to throw and Adams had lots of time to throw, they gotta fix that.
Winnipeg was much better but still no TDs for Collaros, still no 300 yard game for Collaros, and still 0-3. The falloff is here, Winnipeg is NOT winning the west this year
I have an unbiased opinion and from what I have seen Winnipeg could have easily won this game. Since it's only 3 weeks in I wouldn't count them out. Look at Edmonton forcing game 7 in the NHL finals, nobody thought that would happen but there they are with a chance to win it down 3 games.
bigtime coaching staff concerns in Winnipeg this year…stagnant offense, leaky defense, and O’Shea looking as if nothing matters…didn’t see that coming…
They figured they had time to run one play for the td, but collaros took too long throwing. Winnipeg time clock guy tried to give them two extra seconds but they got caught.
Starting 0-3 isn't that great. Of course there're BC Lions who won Grey Cup in 2011 despite staring 0-5, but that's very rare. You can't lose much. Winnipeg might miss playoffs.
Nice win by BC! The TSN crew doing this game were horrendous with the Pro Winnipeg game call🤢. Just call the game it was so obvious that they wanted the Blue Bombers to win this game it was very distracting and kind of bush league
They have been treating BC like a red headed step child for decades, now with no end in sight. When the 2002 version of the panel was around (RIP Schultzee) All four of them admitted they had an eastern bias and were fans of eastern teams. They even went so far as to say it coloured their reporting a bit and it was something they actively looked to limit as much as possible. And, honestly as far as I am concerned Winnepeg spent enough years in the east to be an eastern team the way this current itteration treats them.
I didn't hear much bias towards Blue Bombers. Yeah, a bit of bias was there as the game was in Winnipeg, but that was not that horrendous. I don't think that announcers wanted Blue Bombers to win, they just expected a close game and they got it.
Glen Suiter was fair in his call of this game. The play by play guy was extremely excited every time the Bombers made any kind of play and very muted when BC made a play? On one play the Bomber punter Shanked it off the side of his foot and he described it as a booming punt lol 😂? Had to mute the sound and listen on the radio
@@creedbratton2151 Yeah I mean Suits always does his best to call it down the middle, cannot say the same for any of his partners. I mean Suits is the one who coined the phrase "VA doing VA things". Lol
I don't know about the fans, but the name Lions came because of the mountain peaks near Vancouver named "The Lions", they're also known as "The Two Sisters".
You can’t ask for a better one than this
what a gritty win by BC!!
Better late than never with the highlight package! Great win by the Lions that was ended by running out the clock. Don't see that much anymore in the CFL.
What do you mean? The package was released about one hour after the game ended.

Thanks CFL, great hilight package.
Gotta love the CFL!
This was an awesome game, so glad I’m getting back into the CFL. Also, Hollins is crazy good
A very entertaining game, thank you for the highlights CFL.
Unusual to see the Bombers at 0-3. Great game by both teams!

Vernon Adams is a fearlessl leader and Rick Campbell is so competent. Lions are going to beat the Argos in the grey cup.
Wow what a game!
Great game. Winnipeg... 0-3 for the first time since 2012. Two home losses in a row for the first time since 2018... injuries causing too much trouble.
Happy for Stanback
Gritty win. Lions are for real. I aint lying. Pun intended
13 OH GOOD GRAVY HE NICE

It's crazy that they've played in 4 straight grey cups. It might just not be their year

What a one handed catch by number 10 on Winnepeg wow 😮
Lions have it this year
Well that was unexpected! Solid win by the Lions.
Two good games in one. The Lions win and the Bombers lose. 3 of the last 5 Grey Cup winners were QB'd by a former Roughrider QB.
Please don’t remind me of that, especially now that the Maas/Fajardo duo is wrecking the East right now 🤣😭
I don't want to fly on Boeing airplanes, but I'm glad they sponsor the CFL.
Love the comment... very tangental , yet fitting!

Gut check win by the Leos, very impressive. Peg will get their injured guys back and still win it in the end though.
Really great game but I'm biased.... Lions All The Way...
The bombers played better last season ngl but still put up a fight 🎉
From 4 straight Grey Cup appearances to missing the playoffs? I guess the rest of the league figured out the Bombers offence 😟😟
No, they've gotten older, and lost lots of guys each year. Nothing lasts forever in sports.
our bombers coach is throwing games.
Go Lions Go!!! 🦁
To Gary Peters #1, I’m proud of you ! I wish much success this season #grey cupbaby AKA Piggy!
Go Lions.
Winipeg still has the best fans in the cfl. Go bombers.
Winnipeg was much better but still no TDs for Collaros, still no 300 yard game for Collaros, and still 0-3. The falloff is here, Winnipeg is NOT winning the west this year
Still early. It could happen.
@@rher1636 Will not happen.
It could happen. Maybe Winnipeg needs to put in Chris Streveler as the QB and keep him in till the end of the season
@@rher1636 Won't happen. Either BC or Sask will take the number 1 spot in the west.
I have an unbiased opinion and from what I have seen Winnipeg could have easily won this game. Since it's only 3 weeks in I wouldn't count them out. Look at Edmonton forcing game 7 in the NHL finals, nobody thought that would happen but there they are with a chance to win it down 3 games.
Whats the matter with the bombers they just dont have it anymore im seeing apollo creed yelling at rocky in my mind 'whats the matter with you !!!'
2011 BC Lions started 0-5 then won the grey cup. Dont count WPG out yet people.
Blue Bombers have shown fight but they need to defend better
Bombers needs to win the game in 2 week's
bigtime coaching staff concerns in Winnipeg this year…stagnant offense, leaky defense, and O’Shea looking as if nothing matters…didn’t see that coming…
Too many injuries.
Winnipeg we have a big problem
Jeez, don't they ever call defensive holding.
No outstanding teams in the west. Unless someone goes on a heater, 10-8 could win the conference
why wouldnt we ckick a field goal with 5 seconds left at the end of half.something stinks in denmark.
Would have still lost though
They figured they had time to run one play for the td, but collaros took too long throwing. Winnipeg time clock guy tried to give them two extra seconds but they got caught.
15 games to go, 6 of the 9 teams qualify, relax the season doesnt have much meaning and whoever is hot in october and november wins
lol - ok.
Is that what our telling your-self?

The Princess Blue Bombers are 0-3. Where are all their obnoxious fans now? Just hear crickets....

Do you BC Lions fans call yourselves "The Pride" as well? Detroit Lions fans pulling for you.
I don't know about the fans, but the name Lions came because of the mountain peaks near Vancouver named "The Lions", they're also known as "The Two Sisters".
Being from Vancouver they probably refer to themselves as the "Pride Parade".
