Default Looking ahead, but are we?

Last Saturday was a great night to be a Stamps fan. Poor first half, followed by a passionate effort on all sides in the second half.

The only thing that worries me, is I really hope that we do not get stuck on cloud 9 and forget that the Bombers are coming off a huge confidence builder of a win. Everywhere I read (not just on GSG, media in general) we are still talking about the great win over the hated Riders. My huge fear is that we take the Bombers for granted and come in with bigger heads than we deserve to have. If we do that against the Bombers, there will be alot of sour faces at the end of Saturday evening as we drop to 3-2.

I really hope the troops are going to be focused on the next task at hand, especially seeing as we have yet to play a full 4 quarters of quality football.

IN HUF WE TRUST!

I fear this as well.

Look at the CFL stats for 2010, Winnipeg is at or near the top of every category. They won't be a pushover.

This will be the true test for the 2010 Calgary Stampeders - we've seen that they can beat the league's best, now can they be consistent?

I think we will beat Winnipeg. But I've been wrong before.

Just for once I'd like to see us have a complete game, offence, defence, and special teams clicking like they did in the last half against Saskatchewan. That, plus the return of Rambo, should make for an entertaining evening. I trust that the coaching staff has the boys aware of not taking the Bombers lightly, now is the time to put some serious distance between us and the Lions and Eskies!

I only hope there's some sort of reception where I'm going camping this weekend, 'cause unfortunately I won't be able to watch the game at least I hope I can listen. If not I'm gonna be there wondering about the game all weekend.

If the stamps perform near the top of their capabilities in all departments they should bury the bombers, something like 40-18. If they relax and have already deposited the two points the bombers seem willing to donate - they'll have quite the dogfight on their hands and will be fortunate to pull out a squeaker....

now, with mike renaud injured the bombers are sending a really weak or rookie-laden roster of player numbers to cowtown. Little Beever will be doing both punting and place-kicking as Renaud is out with a knee injury. (extent unknown)

Exactly! Going 4-5 games up on a team pretty much cements it that you wont be seeing that team later on in the post season. You still cant take them for granted, but it sure would be nice to keep a huge leg up on those division rivals.
