Tough to win football games when you are getting beat in the trenches on both sides of the ball

Yeah it's true but honestly without the refs help they give up maybe 14 points this game. Younger clearly has the game plan of giving up the underneath stuff. I don't like it. I wish we had more pressure along our d line. But that's pretty much what we've come to expect at this point. An offense worth their salt wins that game. Our o line sucks, our receivers are beyond meh. Our QB was injured.

Yeah watching. Our offense shutdown in the 2nd half. Sure our defense isn't great but they held their own.

21 points heavily assisted by some questionable calls...how can we really put this on the defence?

What the ****. How can you ******* call that on Holm. Awful

That's an awful big if

If Demerio Houston can return to form...suddenly our CB situation is looking good. I'm really liking what I'm seeing from Vaval. Uses his athleticism and works hard. Cam Allen's hit on Spieker gave me hope that we can put a decent secondary together. But today the defense was still questionable at times given we were playing an 8th string QB. Offense was surprisingly well executed especially given we were out two of Zach's go-to receivers for most of the game. Have to credit Zach. He made some chicken salad today. Obviously leaned on Brady but I thought Zach had an exceptional game distributing the football.

Agreed. Couldn't tell for sure but it looked like 2.5-3 yards. And if you have anywhere between 3/4 of a yard to a full yard left on 3rd you aren't going for it. Having streveler run with virtually every player on the field keying on him was very likely going to end up that way. Beyond stupid. And then going for the FG? The way Crum was throwing the ball it was very unlikely he was driving the field with the time left on the clock. Trying the FG gave them that opening they needed. Beyond stupid.

Teams should know this is our bread and butter at this point. And it hasn't been working that well this year. Is it just blocking schemes to avoid a guy being in Zach's face?

Execution has been pretty good on offense outside of the sweep handoff early in the game. The play action rollouts are working quite well and I don't have enough knowledge to know why.

What was #5s stat line? Must be disgusting

Bonds will have a long leash but he's had such a wtf year so far

Damn that's on par with Kamau Incompleterson

Will reserve judgment on Case until I see the footage. Cory going to the games, well clearly we've seen enough.😂(Just kidding Bud) Overall the best part of that game was the friends we made along the way. Made it through the game with help from a bit of liquid courage and a Do or Die attitude. Gotta make your own fun sometimes. And I think there will be a lot of that this year. This team looks...toast.

I'm okay with Case getting his year 2 opportunity. I might be the only one who doesn't think he is horse poop.

Not sure what the zip had to do with it. There isn't a world where he should throw that.

What a terrible decision by Zach there. Are you joking

Outside of the one throw (which arguably Demski could have come back a bit) he's been fine.

Lapo and Henoc spending halftime talking about how Calgary has shut down Brady and Zach. I mean sure they've done alright but that is not the story of the game

Two drives that could have ended in a TD and didn't. One pick six. But overshadowing all that is our piss poor defense

Ball thrown and the defensive player had yet to make a step toward a tackle. Then goes and hits Zach

Early season and Calgary loses on a regular week, at home, to Ottawa. Then they are expected to beat the Bombers? Just wondering if these folks are paying attention at all or just going by who is the most rested.

Isn't Weitz to the PR to get Oliveira back on?

We can beat Calgary without BO. I like the idea of splitting reps or even just making BO the backup. Bring Vanterpool back on and let Peterson roll.

Collaros was pinpoint on his throws which was awesome to see. It looked to me (as someone who isn't really a football guy so take it for what it's worth) that Edmonton was playing extremely close to the line on first down and running downhill. Wish we would have stretched their defense out on first down a bit more. But credit to the Elks D. Kyrie Wilson and Tony Jones had great games, not so much Kramdi (making tackles after getting beat). D-line, didn't seem like they were getting a tonne of pressure. DBs...too many breakdowns. Not sure what was happening there. Was great to see Bonds make a big play in a game like that but sucks it was called back. Not the best game but it was a short week. I think that shone through a bit. Happy with how the team rallied in the 4th with the gale force winds at their back.
