IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

WEEK 12

Bye - Toronto

Bob Irving - Re the Riders faking injuries, I will just say this: In all things in life there is a high road and there's a low road; we all choose

As reported on TSN post game show. A league mandate was sent out telling teams they want the pace of the game maintained and any shenanigans would be frowned upon. 

CFL News - #Ticats GM Eric Tillman confirms on @TSN1200 that the Johnny Manziel workout was impressive and that "he's a special talent." #CFL

-Offensive-tackle Xavier Fulton, who has played for both #Riders and #Ticats, was signed on Monday by #AlsMTL. - @HerbZurkowsky1 #CFL

-#Redblacks add 5 to practice roster mailchi.mp/oseg/redblacks… #CFL via @OSEG_Media

?‍?5 of the six players Hamilton has just signed are Nationals…due to injury.

CFL News - Eskimos release national defensive back Chris Rwabukamba. #CFL #Esks via @EdmontonEsks

CFL Headlines - Fired CFL coach drives traded player’s belongings over 2,000 miles from… goo.gl/fb/pz33Kn via @thecomeback  - Jeff Reinebold drove John Chick's belongings to make a cross-country move easier for Chick's wife and eight children.

Herb Zurkowsky - Montreal now has a record of 2-15 in Vancouver since 2001, and they remain third in the East Division, with a 3-8 mark. The Als have lost four consecutive games, outscored 145-59.

?‍?Kyries Hebert at MLB. There's nothing the Bomber Defence couldn't do if we had this guy on D

Derek Taylor - Westerman's get-off is so good I would swear he's offside on 1/3 of the plays. Amazing quickness/anticipation/reaction

?‍?The Riders response to all the din over the 'fake injuries' was that they believe in player safety first. Honest.

Ed Tait - 97: The length of Moe Leggett’s punt-return TD, the longest in Bombers history. Dexter Dawson and Eric Blount had shared the record for the longest previously, at 92 yards.

CFL.ca  - The Riders had gone a span of 180 minutes without trailing and over that time have led for 160:33 of the game clock.

 - Not being ahead after the 1st Quarter has not troubled the Bombers as they lead the CFL in coming back from being down after 15:00. Winnipeg is 4-3 when they have behind after the 1st Quarter and that is #1 in the CFL in comeback victories. 

?‍?How cool was that to show Bomber fans flashing soccer-type red cards for faking injuries…

The boys, having fun strumming on the ole banjo....

 

?‍?I sure don't like how Milo kicks those FG attempts. (So pleased with Medlock) And I wrote this prior to Milo's miss....

Wpg. Sun - One could question the wisdom of Nichols running free into the Riders secondary and lowering his head to take on defenders with a 20-point lead and less than five minutes to go.

His teammates didn’t, though.

“When your quarterback takes off and tries to chuck a halfback or safety when the game is pretty much clinched at that point, or you’re clinching it, that just shows what kind of guy he is,” Harris said. “It just shows the guts, the intensity, the will to win that he has.”

“I wanted to go out there and take that last snap and take the knee and celebrate with the guys,” Nichols said. “That’s the way you want to finish games.”

?‍?Only Rod Pedersen could interpret the loudest fan results as ‘a tie’.

Terry Jones - The lack of discipline illustrated by Kenny Ladler and Chris Edwards late reflects on Jason Maas who had a meltdown over a video review.

This incident…

Bob Irving - Bombers ran one of the most clever and deceptive special teams plays I've ever seen on the Moe Leggett punt return TD

3 downnation - the Bombers have now won the season series with Saskatchewan for the third-straight season. 

Speaking of Leggett, what more does the Bombers’ strong-side linebacker need to do to begin earning consideration for the CFL’s Most Outstanding Defensive Player award? He plays the toughest defensive position in the game and does so at a higher level than anyone.

There are a number of intriguing free agents who could help the Bombers down the stretch — all-star halfback Aaron Grymes and national defensive end Andy Mulumba come to mind — and Nevis is an expensive player to have on the sidelines. Could we see a roster shake-up coming up over the club’s bye week?

Chris Walby - Maurice aka.Moe Leggett.had a game most professionals dream about. Love his Mom and son were there. Outstanding.

?‍?Group hug. Jason Maas, Chris Jones and Kent Austin…at their next anger management meeting…

3downnation- Edmonton Eskimos head coach Jason Mass was emotional after Saturday’s loss to the Calgary Stampeders. In his scrum with reporters after the game, he questioned the officiating, the CFL’s concussion protocol, the competency of the command centre, explained his lack of discipline on the sidelines and feels the timing on the 44-man roster rule should be changed.

?‍?The Eskimos are the most penalized team in the League

?‍?QB Qrisis? Trevor Harris (shoulder) Kevin Glenn (hand)

Chris Edwards TSN - nope didn't break haha. Much respect to Riders fans last week, but IGF is hands down the loudest park in #CFL

Jonathan Crompton - Well I guess karma really is true lol, treat the only QB that has won for you in years like crap, and still can't win #karmaisa***** Lol

The Toronto Argonauts announced Sunday that the team has added international defensive back Mitchell White and Canadian defensive back Anthony Coady to the practice roster.

?‍?Nice stat: Winnipeg, which held the ball for 11 minutes 14 seconds in the fourth quarter, ran 62 offensive plays to the Roughriders’ 49 in the game. The Bombers finished with 30 first downs and 410 yards of net offence.

CFL.ca

The CFL has reviewed the Jul 21/17 Winnipeg at BC game and specifically the play made by Winnipeg's Derek Jones. On play #26, Jones rushes the punter and contacts both ball and kicker (Ty Long) disrupting the attempt. Though the ball did cross the line of scrimmage, it went downfield only 12 yards where it was fielded by Matt Coates and a No Yards penalty was called properly by our Officials. The CFL Rulebook was amended in 2013 to credit defenders with a blocked kick in instances where this limited downfield gain of field position is made as a result of a defender's actions:

"For any such Punt that in the opinion of the statistician is sufficiently disrupted by the defending player partially blocking (deflecting) the kick ... or limiting the punt downfield, that player will be credited with a blocked kick."

The CFL Rulebook suggests that 10 yards downfield would be the maximum considered in these cases; but this has now been amended to include all instances where the punt itself is clearly altered substantially as Jones did that day, and results in short kick yardage only. In this extraordinary and unique case as seen through close video review, Jones actually touches the ball first before Long can kick it, and then Long manages a kick despite Jones' initial touch of the ball.

Randy Turner - All those #Bombers fans booing that injured Riders player are going to look pretty stupid when he wins an Emmy.

Chris Walby - What a game. Way to go Big Blue. Best O -Line in the CFL. Beasts. ????

Kyries Hebert - Hebert finished the game with a game-high 10 tackles. He also picked up a quarterback sack. Hebert is now second in the league in defensive tackles, as he trails B.C. linebacker Solomon Elimimian by just two tackles.

The TiCats are showing signs of life- would love to see them pick off the Riders, sending fans across Saskatchewan into melancholic depression.

I think the defense is starting to get on track, which will be interesting depending on who's behind centre for the Riders this Friday. Reports are Glenn is a spectator at practice today.

What a classy move by Reinebold. Serious kudos to him on that.

Just reading the post game scrum with Maas, holy smokes he sounds like a right nutter. The 44 man roster rules are the same for all teams. You have to pick a time, and it was chosen to be 1 hour. If it was 30 minutes, and your guy gets hurt at 29 minutes, you'd just cry and ***** the same story you are now.

He was just channelling his inner Reed.. "there will be consequences for using the 44 man roster this way.."

 

anything that has touched down in EDM as a coach or manager seem to develop some psychotic tendencies lol.
