Alexander looked like ZC under pressure there.

Alexander is going to key in on bonds... There's another explosion play waiting to happen
Or, Bonds will get the pick and take it to the house.

Best KR of the season for Winnipeg.

No more love and joy in Bomberland.

Why didn't we challenge that obvious pick by Ford on second play of the game? Hope someone asks MOS about that later.

No excuse for receivers running offside at game 18.

Those early season losses to Calgary and Ottawa ... geezus. That's on MOS for not having the club prepared. Hindsight, sure. But ....

Als are weak on run defence - second worst in the league after Calgary I believe.. Boggles that we are not running right at them.

We have to watch Fletcher. And Letcher.

I am in BC and since I don't have cable TV for CTV I am getting the game on the TSN+ enhanced feed.
But CFL+ says I can't get this game in my region. Last time I checked BC was part of Canada and even has a football team in the CFL.
"This stream is unavailable in your region" ... really? CFL is really messed up.
Anyhow - at least TSN Enhanced Feed has the game. But CFL needs a shakeup.

Who actually does in-game play-calling for Alouettes offence in 2024 - Calvillo or Maas?

SECTION 9 — OUT OF BOUNDS
Article 1 — Definitions
The ball is Out of Bounds when it touches a Sideline, Sideline in Goal, Dead Line or the ground or any other object on or beyond these lines. The ball is Out of Bounds when a player in possession of the ball touches a Sideline, Sideline in Goal, Dead Line or the ground or any other object on or beyond these lines.

Yes, I saw that. But it does not address the question of where the ball is spotted when a player dives out of bounds with momentum That is a grey area and does not appear to be uniformly applied.

I could not find anything in the CFL rule book on exactly where to spot the ball when a player in possession dives out of bounds. It would be good if TSN got Al Bradbury on air to spell it out for us. Generally, (when a player dives or is airborne) you'll see officials spot the ball at the point where the ball initially crosses the plane of the sideline. Nothing to do with where the payers body lands out of bounds. That seems to be the accepted practice. So, although Collaros's forward momentum makes it appear that while airborne he carried the ball beyond the 10-yard marker he doesn't get the benefit of that because the on-field official - slightly behind the play but who still had a pretty good view - judged that the ball initially crossed the sideline plane earlier. As others have said, obviously command centre didn't see enough contrary evidence to overturn.

Unfortunately Sask is in position to win the west. Bombers shot themselves in the foot. MTL may elect to play their backups since they have nothing to play for. But man alive, the Rider fan base will be insufferable if they win the west
Momentum ... who's got it? Who doesn't? Trying not to think about it but a Toronto vs Sask Grey Cup showdown would be just sickening.

Why is Rourke wearing a bandage on his bicep? It was there before the game started.

Been on a few of those back in the day.

Damn Sergio and these 2 missed FG's.....
Six points would've won the game for us. Sergio also missed 2 FG at home vs Montreal earlier this year. Blamed the microchips.
He signed late. Held out for more more money no doubt. Needs to be better.
That said, Toronto pretty much manhandled the Bombers and deserved the win.

Streveler didn't get a chance to do much here this year... how can we say? He was 1-0 as the starter...
Wilson looks better than Strev on punching through on 3rd & short. But Strevy always took the B or C gaps on that play - suddenly he's going up the gut and failing - why?For sure Buck didn't give Strev much chance to succeed this year and you wonder why ... I'm guessing Strev was hurt early in the season and was therefore limited. It would have been nice to see if a stint in the NFL improved his throwing but, like you said, he was hardly ever called on to do that. To me, it also appeared that he somehow didn't seem to have the legs he had before.

Punting is a weakness for us. We consistently lose field position on every kick exchange.
