Drew Willy looks like an actual CFL qb.  We'll see how long that lasts.

Trump's base loves this.

Yup.  Just a bad decision under pressure.

28-14 Stamps. Predictable outcome.

A lot closer than I expected.

Ouch.  Masoli throws the game away.  That's not going to help him keep the starting job.  Actually thought he was playing okay until that pick.

Threw off his back foot across his body. The pass wasn't even close  to being complete to the receiver as it was underthrown. 

The Stamps D has given up a couple of  big plays. 

Stamps O ground to a halt.

Straight down the field for the Stamps only thing stopping them was the upright

Yeah, that was a sure 6 points. 

White pants Hamilton? Really?? They look like practice pants.

Think the TiCats are in tough here ... but then I thought the Argos D would eat Collaros alive...

If the Stamps weren't such a self entitled team that believes everyone should bow down to them then they'd be celebrating 2 consecutive GC championships.  They talk big as they're very good but punch them in the mouth & they fold like an umbrella in a windstorm in a championship game when all the chips are down.  They don't know how to handle true adversity.   Showed their yellow streak twice in a row in the Grey Cup. They'll win tonight but if this game was played on the last Sunday in November I'd put money down on the Ti Cats to win.

Add on at least 2 more TDs had Nichols played & we'd have won. Of that I am totally sure. (In my best Yoda voice).

You sure that it’s not Reilly making all these guys look good... not the other way around?

No, Streveler could have thrown those up & he'd have had over 400 yards passing with that group of receivers. All they need is an arm's length of separation & they'll catch it. The Esks O is all about taking deep shots. Which means to take that away a defense has to punish Reilly by hitting him everytime he throws. We couldn't get to Reilly... We pressured him but there weren't enough sacks & he was able to get away from pressure.  What made me angry with Hall late in the 4th quarter is he suddenly got soft with coverage. He didn't want to give up anything completed deep so the Esks completed passes in front of the secondary, if you know what I mean. I wouldn't call it a Prevent but it might as well have been.  He wasn't pressuring anymore. He  wasn't playing to win but not to lose. So, we lost. Then LaPo with 2 absolutely stupid calls when we needed a couple of first downs...

well then I'm not sure how you'll feel about this, I heard that they're going to add a trasngender character

Already checked out on the series so doesn't matter to me.

Cant decide. Fan goggles and heart say trap game. Head says they get thrashed.

HAM starts two newcomers on corners.

Stamps are motivated after that **** show they had of a Grey Cup. They know other fanbases think they are chokers & enjoyed that loss. They want to stop their laughter. BLM says his shoulder is healthy & media here in Calgary say he is throwing the ball with heat. Great group of receivers. Terry Williams can really run the ball. Defense has some secondary questions with new starters in there. But the Stamps Front 7 is really, really good. No trap game for the Ti Cats. Maybe if it was Game 6 & the Stamps were 5-0 & the Ticats 1-4 & the game was in Hamilton.  Both teams want to get off to a good start.

I like how we were pretty aggressive with Streveler however with a minute twenty on the clock after a poor kickoff return there's no excuse for not keeping the ball on the ground and keeping the clock running. That 2 and 0 killed us there.  You run on first and run a draw play on second. If you make a big play then you go more aggressive. You don't leave Edmonton the maximum amount of clock there.

LaPo did not call a great game. It was like he forgot that Nichols was out & Streveler was in... 

I watched Lucifer the first season but the plot is so ridiculous.  As far as Supergirl  goes, I can't watch it anymore. The Lesbian characters killed the show for me.  No idea why in a sci fi action series that even had to be part of the show itself.  There are other tv series where the LGBTQ agenda could have been inserted & made sense.

Then you side with Trump. You're an isolationist & a protectionist.  You live in the 1960's. 

Why are kids playing like that on the border? They should know by now that trigger happy shoot first, ask question later border guards will open fire. Parents should be telling kids not to do any of that.  To stay away & not provoke them by throwing rocks. Hey kids are kids but kids don't do that on the Russian border today or didn't in old Cold War Europe when there was an Iron Curtain. They knew what would happen. 

 

Reilly has always relied on his receivers doing that. Just throw it deep & they catch it almost everytime. His receivers should be getting MOP awards & not him. Esks fans better enjoy Duke Williams this season as next he's gone. And with his size & athletic ability he's not coming back.  Thing is, Zylstra will be back after Labour Day.

I wonder if Dr. CFL and The Source are the same guy?

Only a Rider fan would say the Bomber D is full of rotten apples.

And you know Hall picks the players? The GM and player personnel gurus bring in the players that the position coaches are left to work with and then collectively the coaching staff picks.  Give them a basket of rotten apples and you get to pick the least rotten ones I guess.

You actually think our defense is full of rotten apples?  Wow, nice fan you are. Not very knowledgeable either. Rotten apples, whatever.

The  point is the defensive schemes on the last two drives were both  not working and predictable:blitz two and blitz two and blitz two when the blitzes weren't working

I  don't know who was calling the defenses but at games end it was awful: go into normal coverage with the occasional (surprise) blitz ... we  just let Reilly pick us apart .... a little football IQ to let the defense make plays and we win

Was this on Ritchie?

Of course it's on Ritchie. He picks the players, designs the schemes & calls the defense. It's ALL on him.  Of course we all knew this last year & going into the off season that he needed to go but O'Shea did nothing. 

Sixty one Rider coaches huddle on the sidelines.

You can't even touch receivers now. The rules suck.

Couldn’t hear the half time at the gym but saw milt with a rider belt. Seems like par for the course for some of our guys. Take some damn pride.

Milt's on TSN. He can't be a homer.
