“We are good. We’re a good football team,” the Blue Bombers running back said Saturday after his team lost its fourth game in a row, 32-27 to the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

“It’s frustrating because we are good. I know that. As much as the media, or the league, or whoever wants to say that we’re not, we are good and it’s just details that we just need to finish.”

I would tend to agree that, on paper, this is a good team in most areas. Their receiving corps is no great shakes and their defence still gives up too many yards, but overall, by looking at the roster, you’d think there’s winning potential.
