Last week’s game against the Toronto Argonauts was a prime example for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers defensive co-ordinator.

“We won, but we can’t have that type of effort week in and week out and expect to win,” Hall said this week as the 4-0 Bombers prepared to face the 2-2 Ottawa Redblacks Friday night at IG Field.

“It’s the whole game, defensively. I’m happy that we won but I thought it was our worst outing defensively this year, regarding being sharp, being focused and doing the things we need to do. That started off in practice. I didn’t like the way we practised last week and that carried over.”

Indeed the Bombers blasted the Argos 48-21, but they also gave up a ton of yards, mostly through the air.
