Didn't hurt that BC has no running game to speak of... pinning your ears back and rushing Adams on every down makes for a productive night for the Winnipeg defense.
Montreal is clearly a better opponent for Winnipeg after that East Final. Their defense is elite, the offense not too bad, and Toronto clearly can’t perform when it matters. I feel bad for BC since I thought they’d be better, but congrats to Winnipeg and this is gonna be a fantastic Grey Cup game!
You thought BC was better than Wpg. Winnipeg beat them 2 games of 3 in regular season and smoked them at that. They are pretty evenly matched but Wpg's running game is far more superior, best in the league. I don't know where you get your stat. info. from.
@@WayneKenny-uw7rh they only smoked BC in the 2nd matchup, and that was because BC had backups playing. The 3rd game went to OT so Winnipeg definitely didn’t smoke them there. Did you even watch the games or just the highlights
I knew just looking at them before the opening kickoff that the BC players weren't ready to play in the cold weather. This game was lost on character. They were dominated on the offensive and defensive lines. And there were too many times where the BC defense went into a tackle half-hearted where the pile ensued instead of a take-down, and Winnipeg pushed the pile for another 5 or 10 yards with some of those times leading to a touchdown. It was tough to watch.
Speaking for those of us who were unable to watch live, sure wish the CFL would stop telegraphing the outcome of each game by showing a photo of the winning team carrying the ball in the thumbnail. Keep the potential viewer in suspense and make them watch to learn who won.
I want the Bombers to make it 3 in four seasons, but Montreal will be a tough task for us and are not to be taken lightly. Grey cup 110 will be a banger and I can't wait!
The look on Coach O'Shea's face was like, 'I can't believe I have to do this'. I love the CFL, but this is what makes it hard to defend it to my family and friends who say the NFL is better.@@taylorwoolston8856
I think the key to winning the grey cup next weekend is Montreal should be chasing the game the whole time. The bombers should have a two score possession lead the entire game (10 points or more) if they can run up the score that will be terrific. The bomber's can't keep them in the game, because that can change quickly, if the bombers have a chance to score touchdowns or field goals they need to do so, because BC could have won if one or two plays went their way. I think that is what cost us in last years Grey Cup game against Toronto.
that hail mary from BC was the only major they got the whole game. That says something about Wpg's D line. Bombers off to the Grey Cup for the 4th time!!
@@themanyshadesofus7763 it's the one position that band wagon bomber fans have no patience (or understanding) with. Miss a kick or two and they want to hang them
@@jokojabo Defence will win the game, whoever causes the most turnovers will be Grey Cup Champs. The points will probably be mostly field goals, I predict 23-16 Winnipeg.
@@joshname4485 As Bombers fans we also enjoy seeing all you passionate Riders fans cheering every single game, and your propensity to use watermelons as clothing. Of course you didn't hear that from me...
I hate how the Riders feel the need to beat us every Labour Day. Bad enough you murdered the founder of our province, you don't need to reenact it every year.
Both defences were good. Both offences struggled but Vernon Adams couldn’t adjust to the blitz , looked like he was in fear unable to make reads and didn’t use his legs to get out of the pocket. Bombers had a bad game by their standards but no trouble beating the Lions. The CFL officiating was poor missing many calls. The blocked punt was clearly roughing the kicker, hit him spun him around, no call, Bomber touchdown. Montreal will get much of the same treatment and if Collaris is on, it will be Bombers Grey Cup.
The *Grey Cup* will now be the battle of 2 former Rider QB's. Riders always seem to get rid of good players but never bad management. At the end of this season the Riders fired their head coach Craig Dickinson. That is not going fix anything. Mark my words 2024 is going to be just another dismal year as 2023. A win by either QB will show the Riders how bad their management really is. When will they learn?
My concerns about Castillo seem justified...I hope he got all the bad kicks out in this game because it may come down to a field goal in the Grey Cup. We can't count Montreal out, they did succeed in knocking off Toronto, a better team.
What a joke, Winnipeg should trade their quarter back to a towel boy, they basically doing the same thing. Don't know how to throw the ball and 30 seconds in the pocket and yet still cannot find a receiver.
Winnipeg played fast, tough, and disciplined. Smart aggressive football and well deserving to be in the Grey Cup next week.
Facts
Winnipeg needs a quarter back. Only relying on the running back, never threw the ball. useless.
@@repaxx and yet we’re still in this thing. Did your team make it this far?
@@repaxx it was a great game, MTL played excellent defense, and they earned this.
Montreal, we're coming for ya! see ya Sunday
Lets go bombers!!!
By watching highlights the game was won at the line of scrimmage. BC's offensive line was dominated.
As was BC's defensive line dominated as well.
When the game is on the line, the opposition rushes threeen, and your QB still eats turf, your O-line has failed.
Congratulations Winnipeg, the best team won, and this from a lifelong BC Lion.
BC Lions are legit. Was impressed how well your defence adjusted to the run.
Bc is so young, when bombers get aged out the lions are gonna be on top for sure
Thought VA would scramble his way out of trouble more and make gains. BC could not stop the run either. Great game by Winnipeg
That so great of you to say that about the Bombers team knowing yer a Lion's fan
Bombers’ defence has always been the best in the CFL and this game was just more proof of that.
Didn't hurt that BC has no running game to speak of... pinning your ears back and rushing Adams on every down makes for a productive night for the Winnipeg defense.
Not tonight
it’s going to be the first time MTL and WPG will meet in a Grey Cup game
Actually, I didn't know. Thanks for the information 😊

That fills out their bingo card (if I consider the cumulative history of Ottawa football teams as one entity).

Did watch them miss wrote, meant to say shellac them 1 game sorry. But yes clearly Wpg. the more dominant team. Yes going to be a good Grey Cup
Here we go Bombers , here we go !
Amazing win. Way to go, Bombers. Defense awesome. ❤💙💛🏈
Blue all the way 🎉
The fact that you can challenge penalties in the CFL is a game changer. Really digging this league! Cheers from the US 🇺🇸🇨🇦🍻
Winnipeg deserves the game. My Lions are a one trick pony and haven't won a truly big game for years.
Maybe it's just me but those are some atrocious looking unis they were wearing.

What happened to BC's o-line?
As a lions fan we really needed to pick up on the Blitz and start executing quick plays but Winnipeg was the better team
WOOOO
Let’s go bombers!!!!!!
How many times did bc qb get sacked!? Wow
10 times according to the post-game shows.
What an exciting game 🎉🎉🎉
Is Bighill okay?
No. He may have played his last CFL game. But it's Bighill. So he probably will be starting next week. Lol
7:07 Did anyone hear the goal post make music? Lol!
Great game! Was hoping for BC to win but congrats to Winnipeg, Gg. I want Montreal to win the grey cup.

🏆 Champions in 2023.
Mike.
I will say there were a lot of missed calls on both teams however both teams played very well in their respective half’s
Outstanding Winnipeg D.....10 sacks and 3 picks and a blocked punt for a TD
Montreal was great against Toronto and Winnipeg was strong enough to send BC packing, so it
should be a great Grey Cup game, cant wait !!
LET’S GO BLUE!
It wouldn’t be a CFL game if the refs didn’t miss an obvious pass interference.
Yes. Blatant
Can't believe O'Shea had to waste a challenge on that. Doesn't get much more blatant.

I could be mistaken, but in the CFL you can contact the kicker if you made contact with the ball.

BC couldnt stop the run and V A could not juke and jive his way out of the pocket to extend the play. Montreal is in trouble
The Winnipeg kicker had all but one of his kicks slice off to the left. That looks like a problem.
Going down to the Als
Have all the player award ballots been cast already?
It would be both a travesty and embarrassment if Kelly won instead of Oliveira!
Well, that was an embarrassing display of football by the Lions.
Lose a peg Winnipeg is what i always say
sorry but lions never had a chance really
What a joke, Winnipeg should trade their quarter back to a towel boy, they basically doing the same thing. Don't know how to throw the ball and 30 seconds in the pocket and yet still cannot find a receiver.

What? Jam Sheahan. Rookie of the Year.
What did he do wrong?
Buddy wtf you saying
Maybe he means field goal kicker?
@@KyleJon That's just as stupid. Castillo was a savage this season
Is it just me or do half of the receivers half of the time jump the line of scrimmage on the run before the snap
They get about a yard to play with when they run the waggle.
What fn disaster!!!!
The Lionesses got beat like a red headed stepchild 🤣
The fact that BC made the finals just goes to show how shit most of the CFL teams are lol
