Winnipeg Blue Bombers start strong, finish flat in 30-28 loss to Argonauts
Original article ↗Key figures
It was a tale of two halves as the Bombers were able to put up 21 points in the first two quarters, but settled for just seven in the final 30 minutes.
The Argos actually struck first when Sergio Castillo missed a 45-yard field goal and former Bomber Janarion Grant took the ball from one endzone to the other, returning the missed kick 128 yards for the touchdown.
Singer continues to prove he could be a mainstay on this roster, picking up 113 yards on six catches in just his third start.
In typical Kelly fashion, he also threw two interceptions, giving him 24 on the season which leads the league, but his 290 passing yards helped him become the first quarterback to surpass 5,000 yards this year.
The Argos cut the lead to one on another field-goal and after a Bombers two-and-out on offence, Toronto once again stormed down the field and set up Hajrullahu for a go-ahead 36-yard kick with 29 seconds left.

After a start where it look like they wouldn’t be stopped, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers fell flat on both sides of the ball and it cost them in the end.
The Bombers blew a 14-point first-half lead and fell 30-28 to the Toronto Argonauts in front of another sold-out crowd at Princess Auto Stadium.
It was a tale of two halves as the Bombers were able to put up 21 points in the first two quarters, but settled for just seven in the final 30 minutes.
The Argos actually struck first when Sergio Castillo missed a 45-yard field goal and former Bomber Janarion Grant took the ball from one endzone to the other, returning the missed kick 128 yards for the touchdown.
But after that hiccup, the Bombers took over the game in the first quarter, as their offence moved the ball with ease finding the endzone twice on a 22-yard touchdown pass from Dru Brown to Tim White, and then a six-yard run from Brown on the next drive.

That dominance continued early into the second quarter as Brown found rookie receiver Dorian Singer for a 17-yard touchdown and the Bombers led 21-7. Singer continues to prove he could be a mainstay on this roster, picking up 113 yards on six catches in just his third start.

The Argonauts high-octane offence had trouble moving the ball to begin, but when you have the CFL’s leader in passing yards and touchdowns in Chad Kelly, that’s bound to change.
Midway through the second quarter, Kelly aired one out to a wide-open Tyler Kahmann for a 56-yard touchdown to cut the lead in half.
And then early in the third quarter, Kelly and the offence connected on an even bigger play as he hit…
