The 33-point total flatters an offence that still couldn't finish drives.

Collaros said "there's times I felt we should've finished drives," and the Bombers settled for a 12-point margin against an Ottawa side that is 0-9 and riding a 15-game losing streak. With Nic Demski's 6 catches for 79 yards and Oliveira's 8 catches all working underneath, Winnipeg avoided downfield pressure but left points on the board — a red-flag pattern for Edmonton's "great defence" and Montreal's explosive offence.
