The receiving corps isn’t good enough, again, especially with veteran Weston Dressler on the shelf.

And some fans may be clamouring for more of backup quarterback Chris Streveler.

But simmering quarterback controversy aside, something’s got to give with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers defence.

And it might start with one of the more popular veterans.

Linebacker/dime back Moe Leggett was torched in Saturday’s 39-26 loss to the Stampeders in Calgary.

Just ask him.

“I played like s—,” Leggett told me, immediately following the game. “That’s plain and simple. I did. I’d say about 300 of those yards were my fault. And I can’t continue to play like that. I have to make a play when it comes to me.

“This is my worst game, by far. Of my career. For sure. Definitely. Of my CFL career.”

That covers four and a half seasons and 73 games, all with the Bombers.
