This team isn't going to routinely blow anyone out of the water, they are just not coached that way, however they will wear down their opponents and win routinely, even if it does shaves years off our lives watching them do it. This is a good football team that plays a hard game and beats up their opponents. We need to take a step back and appreciate it sometimes. forget the yardage gained or given up, just watch the battle level of this team. These guys are punishing every play of the game.

No sometimes people just say stupid **** and deserve to be called a moron. 1 touchdown against in 3 games and you come in here talking about giving up points and yards not mattering... get your head out of your ass. You said a profoundly stupid thing and were rightly called on it.

It is a real shame that teams never seem to play well against us, maybe one day we'll get a real victory.

yeah medlock got it with his knee, right call was made and good on medlock to hustle down and make the play. made up for the 2 missed field goals.

Lapo needed to let Streveler play with a real game plan. Handing off every first down is not a good way to make it easier on your young qb. That just puts him in more 2nd and longs. I thought he was OK apart from a couple plays, just didn't have a game plan to showcase him. It was all about the classic Lapo play it safe and punt game plan with a lead. D was dominant, especially the defensive line. Ottawa just just chucking and hoping for the best all night. When Nichols was in Lapo was good Lapo, after he went out he went into his shell.

and they got half of their points on a fumble recovery... so what's the problem?

"Don't look Ethel!"

Fenner cuts out the penalties he'll be OK. That's the biggest issue with his game right now.

but he wears SHORTS! He's already clowning.

Suitor may have been good at one point but he's absolutely terrible now. Perhaps he got fat and sassy, but he's brutal regardless of his homer tendancies. I'd honestly rather have Black and Forde than Cuthbert and Suitor because Suitor is that bad. Even the greatness of Cuthbert can't overcome how awful Suitor has become. As for Petterson, he was alright, but he fell into the old man trope. Too much confusion about whether he was or wasn't sitting in the pie. Also, please never use a Gemini award as a basis for anything to do with quality.

You know I went back and looked at the results between these two teams, now unless I counted wrong (distinct possibility) The Bombers do more winning against them than they do against us. I suspect perhaps you are thinking about a couple times when the Bombers were on the wrong end of a bad score.

Said it in preseason, I think Davis is a QB who gets rattled when the pressure comes, so front 4 you are up. Hit him often and see what happens.

So now we get a federal carbon tax instead, woulda been better to keep the Alberta one and at least maintained control.

Notley faught for the province. Trudeau and the federal liberals yeah they piss all over Alberta, but Notley did a lot of good for this province.

Alberta only thinks they're conservative. It's actually pretty progressive, just blindly votes conservatives cause they think conservatives make it boom.

Bauming is going to have quite the tab buying us all pizza.

No they really don't, but you would be shocked at the number of very smart people I have met who believe Kenney can get the economy booming again.

Lucky says me too also?

Streveler.

A leopard can't change it's spots.

Nichols was a bit jumpy about the Edmonton pass rush. Wonder if he watched too many highlights of those guys crushing Reilly the week before. I'd expect him to calm down for this week.

Calgary would be stupid to not give BLM time to recover. Summer football is largely meaningless in the CFL. They will need that guy come fall.

Dear "Suits" why are you such a terrible broadcaster to the point where Inwould rather listen to Duane Forde monotoning his way through a game?

Glenn might be better than Nichols except for one area that makes all the difference.... mental toughness. Glenn is a mental midget, Nichols much better ability to overcome adversity.
