A ball-hungry defence and Matt Nichols' steady play at quarterback has the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on a roll. Linebacker Maurice Leggett's 60-yard interception return touchdown gave the Bombers the lead and the defence shut out Montreal in the second half of a 32-18 victory over the Alouettes on Friday night. The Bombers (5-4) won their fourth game in a row since Nichols replaced Drew Willy as the starting quarterback. The Bombers drew a lot of flags in the first half, but fixed that in the second, when Montreal repeatedly took drive-killing penalties. Khalil Bass had a pick on the last play, the Bombers fourth of the game.
