One came against the Toronto Argonauts, and we don't have to tell you how bad they are.
The others against Edmonton and Hamilton teams that have gone right off the rails.
The three straight wins by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have come against teams with a combined 3-12 record over the last five weeks.
So, going into today's home game against the B.C. Lions, how do we know for sure the rejuvenated Bombers are for real?
"We know we are," receiver Terrence Edwards said. "We know we are in this locker-room. We don't have to prove it to everybody else. We didn't play up to our abilities the first half of the year.
"We're clicking right now. Our leaders are stepping up. We're doing what we envisioned we were going to do at the beginning of the season."
The other day in this space we noted how this year's Bombers have yet to beat a team that was holding a winning record at the time.
Of course, there are currently only three of those in the CFL.
One, Calgary, was 0-1 when Winnipeg beat the Stamps here, Week 2.
In games against Montreal and Saskatchewan, the Bombers, 6-8, have been atrocious, outscored 156-50 in four losses.
Today's visit by the 7-7 Leos presents this team's first opportunity since those debacles to prove it should be taken seriously.
After a 1-4 start, the Lions have started to put it together. They've won three of their last four. They've beaten Montreal and Saskatchewan in the last six weeks.
"They're the hottest team right now in the CFL," linebacker Ike Charlton said, forgetting, for a moment, about the 12-2 Alouettes, who've won five straight. "Any type of let down and they're going to blow us out at home. And we don't want that."
While they may not be the Als, the Lions should come in here with a chip on their shoulders.
Remember, the Bombers ran the ball down their throats, for nearly 400 yards, in a 37-10 thrashing in Vancouver, back in August. Fred Reid alone had 260 yards on the ground in that one, a club record.
"They're going to be pumped up," Charlton said. "Anytime somebody rushes for 260 yards against you, and the way we looked on defence and the way we were able to make plays, trust me -- they're going to come in here fired up and ready to go. I'm positive Wally Buono is in their heads.
"It's going to be a dog fight. But we'll be ready."
Will they be?
Convincing their fans has been a challenge.
Ticket sales this week suggest people haven't forgotten the horrid offensive team that, not long ago, was a sad-sack 3-8. Three wins hasn't turned the tide of public opinion.
"If it's 19,000, we're going to show the 19,000 that we're going out there to play," Edwards said. "If it's 26,000 ... we're going to show them that we're out here working, trying to get better.
"It doesn't matter if it's 10 people in the stands, we're going to go out and play hard for those 10 fans who believe in us."
Edwards says this team has its eyes squarely on the playoffs, nothing else.
You could put the St. Vital midget Mustangs on the field, the Bombers don't care. They'd simply try to get another win.
They don't set the schedule, after all.
Still, there's this nagging doubt, which is why a visit by the Lions and their venerable head coach, the CFL's all-time wins leader, is just what the doctor ordered.
"It's going to be a tough test," Edwards said. "We're playing well, they're playing well. But we can play with anybody."
That's exactly what everybody wants to find out.
