Been to a lot of places on that list... Some good beverages in there. Good for Cabin winning for their Super Saturation. I do like that beer a lot....

His longest run here in the regular season was just under 20 for a first and he had a run slightly longer in pre season. Not only did he run for some firsts here, he had some great run and throw plays. He also had over 300 in his first year of college with a long of 62 yards. He’s a run to throw guy, but he’s fully capable of picking up a first with his legs if needed.

I anticipated much better games yesterday. Both were duds, IMO. Ford is stil a work in progress at QB. Seem to only have success running with the ball or scrambling then making a throw

He didnt target his head at all, you could see the Lions db put his right shoulder out and collided with the chest of the Elks receiver. The collision itself knocked the helmets off, not from a targeting.

The Lions DB targeted the head of the Elks receiver with his helmet. Both lost their helmets. This isn't 1980 anymore. Players need to be protected. Good call.

If I was an Elks fan, having Ford as the starter would drive me nuts. His play at qb is all over the place. There's no consistency, rhyme or reason to how he plays qb. Ford makes an outstanding play that takes 18 seconds to run as he makes chicken salad out of chicken feathers. But for every 1 big play he makes, he makes 5 lousy ones. Just watching him, it's all based on athletic ability & not on football smarts. I think by mid season, he'll be sitting again & Fajardo the starter with the Elks at 1-8 or 2-7. Ford won't have any receivers left by season's end.

I've never seen Brown take off & run downfield. Or use his legs to get a first down. At best, he can avoid the first couple of tacklers that break thru the LOS & then gets sacked.

Every pass under 15 yards the receiver has to leap to try to catch it from Ford.

Thats a perfect hit, contact as soon as the ball was caught, not high nor low, bullshit call.

Wouldn’t this be a great opportunity for the Elks to run an actual 2qb system with Fajardo and Ford? I know its unheard of but would love to see a team actually attempt it. Get the offensive coordinator to think how that could look with the talent they have. Whats the harm in trying for a quarter to see if you can get any traction with it?

Or when he plays Winnipeg. He always looks terrible against you guys.

When the chips are down, adversity hits thats when I’ll be interested to see if Rourke has grown into being a mature qb.

Puke….. people are anointing Rourke again.

They really need to actually build an offense to suit him if they are going to try to do this for real. He can't pass from the pocket. The RPO stuff is dangerous and tires out defenses. Get them guessing where the ball is going to go and choosing to cover downfield or come up to defend the run. Fajardo is a terrible partner for him because if they end up using him he'll be butthurt if they give snaps to Ford for a special RPO pack.

Not sure exa Tre Ford throwing into three defenders versus 1 receiver. Yikes.

Its only the first game but I see Fajardo taking over at some point. Ford is a run first qb and can't really pile up points, they'll need a passing attack to compliment their running ability, otherwise its going to be a long year again in Edmonton......this is also making BC look better this game as well.

Heads up play by ol guy just to get in front of defender and not pop in and risk a penalty on Tre Ford’s scramble.

I think esp for newer guys, they get real wide-eyed when they see our wider field not realizing you dont have to run it out every time...

Returner runs the ball out of bounds at the 3 yard line on a missed field goal. JFC. Anyone coaching these guys?

Edmonton going to be looking for a new kicker before the 4th quarter, kids having an atrocious game.

The first few weeks are usually pre-season like....

Has anyone attended a game at BMO field? Going to take the family when the Bombers visit July 26. Are there sections where visiting fans usually sit? What limitations on bringing in cowbells or others in to the stadium? @blutoany advice?

Our punter would of put that at about the 30..35 and they'd be scrimaging close to midfield He needs to drop about 10..12 yards from the shotgun to see whats going on..and give him space to sandlot it...not a sustainable thing for success
