Walters crapped the bed on receivers. I can’t see Winnipeg competing in the West without greatly improving their receivers and special teams returners.

Yes. They had no adjustments to the D at all

That’s my point. Yes Nichols didn’t have a good game. The Stamps D was lights out today.

So Nichols is responsible for not having a target?

The problem today wasn’t Nichols. If your receivers don’t get open then what’s he supposed to do?

The rational would be on the interference was that the rule favours the offence and regardless of who contacted whom the end result was the receiver was prevented from having a shot at catching the ball. On the lateral, there was no reason to challenge at that point because it was a positive play for the D. If I were to choose though I would have challenged the lateral because that was clearly an easy win and would have made it second and a whole pile of yards.

Only if the official(s) can see it

Thanks Jason. Very classy post and I couldn’t agree more with your comments... including the hit. I hope Brandon is okay.

He won’t. If Willis didn’t he shouldn’t. Just a fine.

It was a penalty but the ref couldn’t see it so there isn’t much he could do. Good tough win.

Again, I am not gonna cry over it but guys being so sure of the call I think are fooling themselves a bit. The live call was incomplete and the video replay is 100% inconclusive because at key points the ball and therefore any concept of control or lack thereof are obstructed. The bits I see Rogers doesn’t bobble or lose control until after he is down so in my opinion it should be a TD.

As much as I hate the Riders, the thought of going East or BC finishing above us is far less desirable. So I want Saskatchewan to win or tie today and Calgary and Winnipeg to win next week. That will force BC East and Winnipeg to go to Saskatchewan. I really don’t want to go East or face BC. Mosaic and Calgary are tough places to play but both teams offences are far less scary.

With respect to the controversial TD, live from my seat he looked he dropped it. Later watching the replay he clearly scored. However, it was a nice bit of karma for us considering they got a win here two years ago on a bogus call.
