With a goodbye week approaching, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers will focus on Thursday night's game against the Montreal Alouettes to remain undefeated.

"Locked In" was a short message from Blue Bombers his coach Mike O'Shea to the team.

"Once again we have a group of men who have learned from great experiences together over the years," he said, O'Shea. "So you don't have to waste your time with a lot of phrasing."

The Blue Bombers (9-0) beat host Alouette (2-6) on Aug. 4, when he was 35- Broke at 20. seal the victory.

“Obviously I see a light at the end of the tunnel. 35 yards in Montreal. I think it's been the toughest stretch in the CFL for the team as well.… We hope to enter that bye week with a win.

The Blue Bombers were 10-0 at the end. It was 1960.

Alouette quarterback Trevor Harris (back) and receiver Eugene Lewis (hip) were restricted in practice Tuesday but expected to play. Running back/returner Chandler Worthy (ankle) will be sidelined Thursday.

Alouette general manager and interim coach Danny Maciocia said Harris could pitch Tuesday.

"We just wanted to limit his throws going into the match," Maciosia said.

After losing to Winnipeg, Maciosia said his offense relied heavily on Lewis. He has his 45 catches for 742 yards this season.

"I think [recipients] need to be more involved," Maciosia said. “We need to distribute the ball like we did in Ottawa (40-33 victory over the Redblacks on July 21). If we can get all the receivers involved, that makes our offense better.
