Oliveira’s Outburst Obscures a Defence Bleeding Points at Historic Rates

Brady Oliveira exploded for 128 yards and two touchdowns on just 14 carries (9.1 yards per rush) in the 52-30 loss to Calgary—the most points surrendered by Winnipeg since 2019. While the run game thrived, the defence’s collapse (52 points allowed) reveals a glaring weakness that media narratives about offensive inconsistency overlook, as Oliveira’s efficiency is wasted in defeats.
