The fact is the Stamps beat you in Winnipeg when our offence wasn't clicking at all, you can bring up the fact we knocked Pierce but Burris at that point was playing like a rookie as well.

Your defence is amazing, no doubt, but your offence doesn't scare me one bit with or without Pierce. Where as our offence can be very potent when they're on. Lets see how well they do against a very good Als team.
I don't expect the Bombers to beat Montreal on the road, but that's not because they're not for real. Last season, Winnipeg lost 9 games by 4 or fewer points; this year luck has been on their side more in the other direction in those same close games. Perhaps they haven't clicked on all cylinders offensively but they are still a good team. The Stamps beating them by one point a month ago doesn't change that.
