Cut Streveler 

Another FG.  SMH.

Glad Davis isn't  a Blue Bomber anymore. 

That was blocking when the ball was in the air.  Should have been a penalty, on Ottawa’s first play after the FG.

Can block as long as the pass is completed behind the line of scrimmage.

The illegal part was Ellingson moving toward his own endzone and throwing a block.

Ottawa not trying for points to get a record.

Lapo calling 12 yd plays... wow

If we could have scored just 2 more TD's we'd be up 27-11. Underwhelming.

I didn’t know that.  Thanks.

Not a Nichols hater by the 3's instead of 7's could come back to haunt us. It is also the adjustments at half time that concerns me. Ottawa will make some adjustments however the Bomber Brain Trust has been sorely lacking in making many positive half time adjustments.

I think our scheming is an issue in the red zone. I think nichols is having a great game.

Nichols being Nichols. 

I wish Streveler was playing.

 On  pace for 38 points

 

Nichols is halfway to 300 yds.........finally before a half

Of course they overturned the incomplete pass to complete even though it looked totally inconclusive.

At least it got Campbell to waste his challenge early on a relatively inconsequential play to the outcome of the game.

Based on the replays I saw there wasn't enough evidence to show it was a completion. Yet the CC overturned it. Total BS.

**** another FG.

We got to put up 6 here eventually.  I’ve seen this movie before.

MOS should have challenged on the pass to Dressler in the end zone. Defender was screening; absolutely did not look for the ball. It would’ve been a high percentage, very smart challenge.

wasted down.

This game is slowly slipping away from the Bombers
