Blue Bombers fall to 0-2 after sloppy start to season
8 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 12:43 PM CDTOTTAWA — Winnipeg, we’ve got a problem.
After a second consecutive sloppy performance by the Blue Bombers to start the 2024 CFL season, the reality is kicking in that their days of dominating the three-down loop is starting to lose its grip.
The Bombers dropped to 0-2, falling in back-to-back games to start the year for the first time since 2016, with a 23-19 defeat at the hands of the Ottawa Redblacks at TD Place Thursday night.
“This is a different year, and we obviously feel that now, especially starting 0-2, something we haven’t done in a long time,” said veteran receiver Drew Wolitarsky. “At the same time, I’m not going to sit here and feel like a bum. I know we’re a good team and I know we have a lot of young talent that we just need to teach and coach. I needed the reminder tonight that it’s going to take more than I think.”
