TBURGESS

IMO The biggest difference in the OL was Zach himself. He turned back the clock, got out of trouble, shed tacklers, and made plays like it was his first game in Blue.

BC made a ton of mistakes. redblacks made some great plays. BC starts running the ball and blows the game wide open. That's so redblacks.

The best guess is that Elsbury is injured; otherwise, MOS wouldn't have made the change.

I worry about putting players in that should be recuperating.

FIFO should apply to MOS too. He doesn't Fit In anymore.

Grabbing some fresh tin foil and making a hat... Maybe Brady isn't being used later in games because his injury is hampering him... Takes off hat, tries to flatten it, gets frustrated, makes it into a ball, and throws it out.

In the Edm and the Tor games, we owned the first halves and got owned in the 2nd halves. Seems to me that the offensive game plan & play design is good to great, but the halftime adjustments and playcalling are crap.

They are changing the OC's play call at the LOS within the system. If you are suggesting that the play and the checkdown for the play are both bad, that's a flawed design from the start. If you are suggesting that the initial call and its checkdown are the wrong call in the first place, that's bad playcalling. If you are suggesting that Collars isn't allowed to change the play at the LOS, that's sad. He's one of the vet QBs.

I'm not sure it's the OC, Collaros and Brown look like they are changing the play at the LOS a lot.

If they simply kicked the FG instead of going for it when they were down 7-0, they'd have gone to OT. That's so Ottawa.

Both guys threw a punch. Both guys should have been thrown out.

70K bonus on a 90-95K contract doesn't seem right to me. I'd GUESS he'd get less than 1/2 in bonus money meaning about a 70K excess in the budget.

Wierd, I've gone through ISP changes, VPN changes, Country and City changes, multiple machines, Windows, Linux, Android and always kept my sign on.

I never said we did KNOW. I think you're reading into my post something that wasn't there.

There is also zero evidence to suggest that he only wanted to go back to the Riders, but here we are. He left for the money. What makes you think that he wouldn't look at all offers? He could just as easily be Henoc Muamba, as Bighill.

I tried IPTV years ago; the feeds were inconsistent, and they were mostly SD. The first time my CFL game got scrambled while I was watching was the last time I trusted them (I tried several). Went to Kodi which is free for TV content, and haven't looked back. A TSN streaming during CFL season is all I pay TV wise, but I do pay for 1 G internet.

That's what makes sense.

The problem is paying for 2 streaming services for one small league. I pay for TSN for CFL. The rest of my TV is on Kodi. I'm 69, so it's not just the kids that don't want to pay for multiple streaming services.

Philpot shoulda got 2 penalties, roughing and taunting. Alexander shoulda got a unsportsman like penalty. When the trainers come on the field, the player is supposed to go out for 3 plays, unless it's a QB I guess. I think the replay center must have gone to sleep in the last game.

Next year will be the first year since I was 10 that I won't watch all the televised CFL games. Thanks, CFL 'braintrust'.

A big question is how many of the 5 or 6 starters do the Riders get back this week?

Brady is the guy who leaks out and gives us a quick target. The Riders had a player rush right at Brady, forcing him to block instead of leaking out, therebye eliminating him from the passing game.

So, what's the consensus? Is the Montreal game what we're going to see going forward, or is it a blip?

With Adams out, I'd like to change my pick from Cgy to Ham.
