It could have something to do with the lackluster performance of the offensive line. The line allowed six sacks.
The only thing positive for the whole night's game, for Toronto, was the perfomance of kicker Noel Prefontaine. Prefontaine made field goals from 24, 52, and 47 yards, accounting for his team's only offense.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers, on the other hand, had a much better performance than they had last week against the Montreal Alouettes.
Running back, Charles Roberts of Winnipeg, told reporters before the game that he wanted to out rush Williams. He did what he said going for 133 yards on 32 attempts, with one touchdown. His longest run going for 18 yards. Last year, Roberts, of Sacramento State, led the CFL in rushing and is looking to win the title again this year.
Final score of the penalty plagued game was 16 - 9.
