Bombers need all three phases to step up in second half: O’Shea
Winnipeg Blue Bombers receiver Ontaria Wilson dropped a crucial catch in Friday's 33-21 loss to the Ottawa Redblacks, despite making an impressive touchdown earlier in the game. Wilson, who has 38 catches for 537 yards and three touchdowns this season, acknowledged that he should have made that catch as well, as it was one of the easier ones.
Despite the setback, the Bombers remain in 5th place in the CFL standings. Quarterback Zach Collaros, who was hit by linebacker Luc Cormier in the second quarter, completed 21 of 31 passes for 222 yards and no turnovers. Head coach Mike O'Shea emphasized the need for a more balanced offensive approach, stating that the team needs to step up in all three phases if they want to improve their passing game statistics.
