That player that Oliveira rocked was Henoc Muamba. You guys never heard Rasheed Bailey at halftime talk about his little cousin in hospital fighting for her life. Sarah Orlesky was left speechless. Totally unexpected. She had asked Bailey what he was thinking when he scored his touchdown. After a 10 second pause, he just said, "Family." 

Great summary as usual. :)

I just want to mention I’m impressed by Nic Demski. He’s gotten better every year and this year his route running looks smoother. I remember watching him in high school and thinking he was incredible as a running back. Even in the CFL he was more of a change of pace jack of all trades guy but I seen him as a legitimate threat catching the football. Really happy to see the home town kid balling out.

As what most likely is going to be target 3...he had a real good game..reliable hands..when Adams is back he will be generally the 2rd or 4th look most times behind them and most likely Demski too...plus at some point Harris is gonna be in this mix..only so many balls to go around..he is also very assignment sound like Woli in the blocking schemes..huge factor in the top 3 getting their yards..and at times depending on script or game flow he may see more..or leads..same with Woli

I am just generally curious... do people expect every receiver on the team to have 100 yards each and every game? I think we need to adjust expectations. Maybe one or two guys are going to have big nights offensively and the rest if they get a couple touches and a touchdown should be considered a good night.  This team isn't a run up the score team. They're much more a ground and pound type team.

Our kick return game has to get better as well. I don't know if its the blocking or lack of ability on the part of our returner(s) but it has been meh so far this year.

you didn't like the game he had? 

He ought to be able to do better- he was not in the clear that often.

What I'm not sure about is why no offside called on the Collaros int in the 3rd quarter..3 guys jumped

Also why didn't the Command Centre review the play that O'Shea wanted to challenge?

Same answer to both, league wants a successful Toronto team. 2 pretty blatant misses by the officials.

 

Or the refs just flat out suck. That is a very real possibility too.

Yup, it wasn't even close.....Zac looking somewhat bewildered, checking with the officials on that.      Terrible non-call.

It is somewhat beyond a possibility.....
