On both those plays the receivers waited and didn't high point it. Wolitarsky didn't adjust to the ball at all just kept getting depth even as the DB stepped in front. Lawler adjusted but mistimed the leap.
I had no issue with either of those throws. Put it out there for receivers to make plays. They didn't.
It didn’t look like Lawler and Collaros were on the same page on that play. A throw further to the corner of the end zone would have been a TD 100%. The play looked especially bad since Demski was so wide open for an easy pitch-and-catch on the same side of the field.

What’s with all the hate for Sheahan lol? Is it his weird technique that throws people off? His average distance of 47.2 was not far off the 47. 9 that led the league among full-time punters and I am willing to bet his net yardage ranks even higher (anyone know where I can find that stat?).
edit: found some in-depth punting stats. Looks like Sheahan ranks about the same in that category: https://d3ham790trbkqy.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/2023_CFL_League_Stats_Report_Week_21.pdfI think the biggest issue on special teams this year was Castillo’s distance on kickoffs.
I would personally like to see what Dru Brown can do as the starter in this offence. Not sure I trust Collaros anymore. Overall I think the roster is still strong, but I wouldn’t mind seeing guys like Thomas and Houston let go.

It says something about our complacency/loyalty when the mediocre/poor punter is the nominee for rookie of the year.
I don’t think the punter was the problem this year. His average of 47.2 is not far off the 47.6 that led the league among full-time punters, and I bet his net yardage ranks even higher. He has a weird technique for sure, but it’s pretty effective. As far as special teams go, I think the biggest issue this year was Castillo’s distance on kickoffs.

They do that a lot actually
That’s interesting. I thought it only happened on scoring plays. I can recall a few times where plays could have been overturned had it been automatically reviewed.
-
Why was that automatically reviewed?

Not only that one, but the so called non catch by Dalton Schoen near the end of the first half that would have at least given the Bombers a chance at a FG. Where was the challenge?
The one near the sideline where the ball hit the turf? I don’t think that had a chance of being overturned tbh.

It would have automatically been reviewed by the Command Centre as it was a scoring play. It doesn't need to be challenged. It sure looks like it wasn't a touchdown. Looks like the ball touched the ground before the Rider receiver cradled it.
Right or wrong ( looks wrong to me) the CC calls it. Once they make a decision, it's not reversible. No doubt we got screwed.
The play definitely could have and should have been challenged.

Once your challenges are gone they are gone. You don't get new challenge flags in ot.
Did the Bombers challenge anything tonight? I don’t recall such an instance, but I may be wrong.

There are no challenges in OT
Show me the rule that says so. That is simply false.
You are 100% wrong.

I thought all scoring plays are automatically reviewed and therefor not challengable.
You can challenge scoring plays.

Supposed to be automatic on a scoring play.
True, but it still should have been reviewed internally and challenged by the Bombers.

Would be game over if they made the right call on Sask 2 pointer.
Hard to blame the refs when the Bombers could have challenged it though.

Why the Bombers didn’t challenge the Riders’ convert is beyond me…

1. Brady
2. Sergio
3. Demerio
HH Paredes for missing TWO field goals
HH 2 Hakunavanhu for dropping the easiest ball of all-time on what should have been a sure touchdown

Not a penalty. We're in silent count, they are allowed to use hand signals.
If anything Bryant moved before the ball.
It was within a second of the snap of the ball though. Since when does silent count matter?

Was gonna say...he almost seemed to pop up a bit early...but u also see that split second move a lot...
Offensive linemen are taught not to move at all within a second of the snap of the ball, hand signals included.
-
Gotta say, we were lucky not to be called for offside on Schoen’s touchdown catch. The centre clearly moved his hand just prior to the snap of the ball.

This hasn’t been a very well-officiated game, both ways.

What a play by Biggie.

Zach Collaros’s decline was predictable and is sure to continue, but I still think he’s a good QB, and certainly a more proven commodity than Brown. He has sucked in the big games the last couple of years though, which is very frustrating.
