Bombers were obviously trying to rattle Lulay taking 3 roughing the passer penalty.

I don't agree with the above that Bombers were trying to rattle Lulay as it doesn't take much these day to get a RTP penalty. So if you are going to take a RTP penalty to rattle a QB then you might as well really unload on the passer. The Bomber RTP penalties were not very violent.

Right. I would have been more worried if the Bombers were aiming low for the knees. It didn't look like they were targeting him. Of course, most of TL14'S injuries have been of the bad luck non-contact kind.

High risk. Low percentage. This is the "blueprint." 3rd and 1. Shotgun. Rainey up the middle into a wall. D'oh.

Is Wally still helping with the STs?

Detailed game planning by the Bombers. We were not even close to a recovery of the onside kick.

Game mismanagement. No points.

Fueling the comeback. Sparking the pride. O'Shea shows disregard for pro athletes on the other side. Streveler gets stuffed at the goal line. Don't give a chance to a team on the verge of giving up. Don't go double or nothing when you are up big time.

Huge play by Lulay, Master of the Improv. Figueroa playing while injured, eventually gets beat here, but Lulay rolls left and hits Burnham.

Just under 2:00 left. Beautiful, athletic play by Shaq Johnson. TD. One senses the inevitable.

Jump ball might be a 50% chance, one would think. With Burnham on the receiving end, the odds are much higher for the offence.

We played hard. We finally got things going our way. Very happy for Lulay.
Lulay himself wasn’t even 100 per cent of his status, saying “I’m trying to close that last five per cent gap to be fully game ready.”

There was one other quote from that post-game interview with Farhan that stuck out for me, wrote Mattthew Cauz:

“Didn’t know if I would have another opportunity to do this.”
