No, I am saying we should respect our opponent. BC is 4-3 but easily could also be 5-2 if they dont collapse...even 6-1 if Reilly starts the year healthy. Even though their D and Special Teams leave something to be desired, the game is in BC. Further, as we only play BC twice this year, a win there would really set us up nicely... We would then be leading (or have won) every season series against Western opponents.

Oof. Those Lions are gonna be seeing red when we play 'em next week. Gonna be in tough.

Only an organization as stupid as the 'Riders would show up to a football game ready for a boxing match.

My goodness this 'Rider team is undisciplined.

Lol Gainey.

Lions looking like a formidable team with Riley at the helm...

He had 3 penalties (1 illegal contact on receiver, and 2 roughing the passer penalties). He did not register a tackle... One of his own penalties negated his own sack lol

Pretty sure there are players on the active roster unaware there's a game right now.

In the immortal words of George Carlin - "It's called the American dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it." (though I highly doubt he coined the phrase, he certainly said it in one of his comedy specials.

Gotta say I loved advance voting. Went for a walk with the missus tonight just to see how long the lines were lol.

Not gonna bother with a full report card, but I feel like when Jefferson seems invisible it is bc teams are keying in on him, allowing Jeffcoat to make the big plays... Just because you arent recording sacks doesnt mean you arent playing well.

Honestly, this year I have found it much more palatable to consider our 45+ field goal attempts as just really long punts that might be worth three points. We haven't been burnt on a missed FG return yet, but honestly it is only a matter of time till that happens. It just makes it that much harder on the coverage team.

Just go for it on every 3rd down instead of kicking from 35+ lol In all seriousness though, I think Legghio may be good if he can get out of this slump. I would keep Crapigna too out of necessity despite his suckage, he is the best of a bad bunch, assuming his abilities remain the same post-injury. I get having nerves, but last night Mourtada missed from areas that should be automatic... In a ghost town of a stadium. I can't imagine him kicking better on the road in a packed stadium, or dealing well with the weight of our own fanbase burdening him at home.

I'm just saying I could volunteer and go 0/3 on FGs. Volunteering would mean we'd save $$$ whatever we paid him to play.

Hey, c'mon now... Give Suitor a break, he's new to broadcasting too and rookies make mistakes. He's only been with TSN since.. 1995?!?!?!?

Also... Kudos to the coaching staff for keeping egos in check. All that extracurricular junk after the whistle, you would've thought EDM was the 5-1 team last night...

I'd say HH to the O-line... Had a good night rushing (134 yards on 21 attempts), only sack they gave up I'd blame Collaros on for hanging in there too long ...and the offense as a whole only had 20 yards in penalties.

In fairness to the Elks, I haven't seen footage of an Elk tackling anything in the wild. David Attenborough would be proud.

Just imagine him playing on a team with Collaros and our lord and savior Brandon Banks in their prime.

Here be the highlights if you want.

Screw that, just punt on first down to set even more defensive records. Bonus is it gives Leggio extra practice 😂

I hope Harris throws for 900 yards and 0 TDs in this game and still manages to lose lol.

I think ppl are unfairly comparing his record for PATs with prior kickers before it was moved back to the 35. Besides... Other teams are having struggles kicking too... Look what happened to HAM last week.

How about that time there was a thunderstorm delay for like 2 hours against the Ti-Cats and then when they finally came out to play we absolutely spanked them https://www.cfl.ca/2016/08/04/recap-winnipeg-37-hamilton-11/

Adding to the ridiculousness of this is the fact that his Wikipedia page currently lists him as a free agent lol. Dude is 45.
