Super Duper Negatron Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 This game will be closer than people think. We were dominant last year, and they were still close against the Elks. Eternal optimist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnold_Palmer Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 We should win but teams will always bring their A game against us, and they’re at home so I expect it to be a relatively close game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Zanetti Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Yeah i think it will be closer than it should be. Lawler and Jones will have them fired up at home to end their winless streak against the champs. 27-20 Bombers Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) I have little respect for the Elks' team and coaches, so 28-9 Blue. The only thing keeping this from being a blowout is all the owies we have on defence. Edited July 22, 2022 by Tracker Mark F and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Special Teams is a concern but I'm sure they tightened things up. Punt and FG protection was a mess last week. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 We have some significant injuries that I think will keep this game close, but I still expect us to win. I think our first loss comes in Calgary next week, heading into the bye. This one we sneak away with.... rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) hope not a jinx, but not going to be close. "And now, seven weeks into the 2022 Canadian Football League regular season, the Edmonton Elks are into double digits when it comes to quarterbacks under new head coach and general manager Chris Jones, who brought former Montreal Alouettes pivot Ben Holmes onto the practice squad Sunday. And it’s fitting he’s wearing No. 11, because that’s how many players have been part of the Elks QB stable under Jones, in some way, shape or form, beginning with the short-lived signing of Ohio State product J.T. Barrett in January, who got injured playing elsewhere in March, followed shortly thereafter by the release of Dakota Prukop from the Elks roster on Feb. 14." edmonton sun the player management of elks is nonsensical.

the watcher Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) I can't see how with the turnover that happens weekly on the Elks, that this game can be close. But usually when I have those kind of thoughts I'm completely wrong. Edited July 22, 2022 by the watcher Noeller and Mark F 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, he still has playmakers out there. If we can win more of those 50/50 battles than not, this won't shouldn't be a close game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Curious to see who'll primarily be matched up with Lawler and how that battle goes. Montreal couldn't keep from taking PIs last week.

Booch Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 When u have recievers playing/backing up at safety and corner...hello Dbag Carter and Simoneses... under sized guys on dline cause the coach tried to be smartest guy in room....a 4th string QB that's shown zip...and 10 lineup changes from last game...I don't have a lot of concern other than playing smart and disciplined ball...and no dumb penalties....we do that..it's never in question even missing 6 starters BigBlueFanatic, GCJenks, kelownabomberfan and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
