Well, a lot riding on this game and neither team would be in good shape losing.  Definitely feels like the road would be harder for BC though with all the expectations they had.  Certainly they did bounce back from 0-5 in 2011, but that's a rare accomplishment and with a rookie HC, probably not something they're cut out to do.

 

It's looking a little better for Calgary though because they did intercept Dom Davis 4x their last game, and Reilly has also been throwing a ton of INTs this year.  Calgary's key to winning is simply capitalizing off those turnovers.

 

For BC, well you can't just keep going with this 1D offensive attack.  Coaches need to get together, get the run game going and tell Reilly he doesn't need to do it all himself all the time.  Mix up those shorter passes and draws and take the heat off him.

 

Anyway, I got Calgary by 14 in this one.

Lol. Utter incompetence from BC. They ain’t winning now. 

stupid call

Rookie HC mistake there, I don't blame Claybrooks, but that's why most HCs take the sure points

It’s a smart call. You have to execute. 

Yup. You go for the TD. Maybe that was the time not to do the same QB sneak up the middle.... hit a different gap.

Great halftime interview by Reilly

Wrong call in my opinion. You effectively stopped Calgary’s momentum by driving the field. Take the points. Now, you get nothing and welcome Calgary back in the game. 

15 point vs a 12 point lead. Could be the difference.

He is a great leader

BLM throws an interception.

Suitor: "that ball was not intended for Aaron Grymes"

The amazing thing is that Black/Forde is so unbelievably bad, that we actually collectively yearn for a Suitor game. Cuthbert is terrific, though. 

on the int, The stamps receiver looked like he didn't give  a ****.

 

be interesting as the season progresses to see if Stamps can pull out of this. In the past their receivers were outstanding. now, ordinary.

listening to a game recording of Black and Forde commentary  play by play ywould be a very good cure for insomnia.

 

Reiley getting pounded once again.

B.C. secondary doing a good job

Ambles is very unimpressive. This team misses Jorden big time.

Eric Rogers definitely isn't the same guy he was in 2014-15

It can’t be said enough how depressing it is that we legitimately found Paredes but he was brought in with absolutely no chance of making the team because the team was set at kicker with Justin freaking Palardy.

He can still catch but the guy can hardly move anymore. Begelton is the only real threat in this receiving group. 

I think we all collectively vastly overrated Bryan Burnham.

I thought it was pretty funny when Stamps homer Jernain Franklin says something about "penalty aided drive" and Reilly says "penalty aided means nothing other than they were undisciplined"

He is correct

Michel too

It's crazy how much talent they lost. It's just as bad on defence.

BC saying hmmmm using John White loosens up the defense. 

got to credit jarious for changing things that were not working.

I enjoy watching these games and thinking how we’d cut these performances apart if either of these teams were the bombers
