starting to regret taking Hamilton this week...........

 

good game second half.

I can't believe the Schultz Show pulled it off. Glad I didn't change my pick...

Teach our guys can’t launch or land from/on anyone on either team on a kick play.

It’s the “can’t jump” rule.

Yeah it seems a bit broader than the way the rule reads, but I guess the “maintain elevation” part of the rules essentially means “don’t jump into the opposing line and end up still off your feet”. I know they also changed stuff to not allow any hitting of the long snapper while their head is down, so safety first. Just funny that we haven’t seen that call in over a decade, then we get 2 in 2 weeks. I suppose the refs were told to crack down in a mid-season review.

I seem to recall that there was a similar call last week.

In the Bomber game in Montreal, called against the Als. Cost them a TD. 

settling in to watch Lions / Stamps.  Think the Stamps are going to surprise here.

First break goes to the Lions

The turf in Calgary is making tackles, both Philpot kids are really good, really fast

So if BC gets walked by CGY then what? They will still have yet to beat a good team 

Kid Canada off to a bad start, Calgary is a real test for him

BC replacement running back struggling -- drops an easy swing pass and falls down on a play where he had a bunch of room to run for a 1st down.  gotta get that kid settled down.

Or don’t 

BCs front 7 is terrible

Then that’s the tier they’re in. Good enough to walk over the **** teams but not good enough to compete.

BC’s lines are so bad 

seems odd to run a hitch screen where you don't put a blocker on the man directly opposite the receiver -- forces Whitehead to go inside where Calgary can rally. 

they've done it twice now.  guess they're figuring that Whitehead can beat his man one-on-one.

Yeah- it's a 10-point lead and the first quarter ain't done, perhaps we should give them a bit more time to show who they are. 

lions might try a running play.

Lucky should have had that it was a nice ball

Quite likely they are setting something else up.

That was the “if” part 

BLM is pretty useless at this point unless he’s throwing a guy that’s wide open.

what can you set up with that?  fake the hitch and have Whitehead go deep when the DB jumps it?

Not a tight window guy anymore

Double move maybe 

That was a great pass to the Calgary player
