2 missed field goals.......

bombers o line has to be able to handle the eastern teams d line if they have any chance at a sniff at a cupo
We handled their D Line in the 2nd half much better, enough to claw our way back, and incidentally without hitting the upright, we win this game. I'd say we hung with Toronto fairly well considering their post-season was at stake if they didn't win this.

They made it interesting in the end, but too many mistakes (poorly executed first half, Castillo's misses, costly fumble on the first drive of the second half, way too many sacks) were too much to overcome.

Feels like this is a team that can win in the playoffs so long as they can score 2TDs + 1-3FGs with the way their defence can play - but they can't take this long to get rolling if their offensive line struggles that often that early in a game. Key lessons to be learnt: let's see if they adjust accordingly.

Sucks to lose but after the half we played much better. Would like to see adjustments earlier next game.

Too many costly mistakes f***ed us, but it’s not a bad thing to get this lose out of the system now.

Bombers were finding ways to win these games the past few years but then losing in the Grey Cup. I’d much rather lose tonight if we can learn from it in time for the playoffs.
