Allen did everything right and still gets burned. 

Was impressed by Allen's speed and coverage, though. He's gonna be OK.

[Bomberguy]

The league is tired of the Bombers run. 6 years of success is enough 😉

[Slimy Sculpin]

I'm more annoyed that O'Shea didn't challenge it. Assuming it was challengeable.

[rebusrankin]

These refs do they have people each morning to help them cross the street?

Why he wasn't on roster from get go is baffling...just think he could have 8 games under his belt already

iPads.

Allen had a better read of that ball than the receiver and if he picked it off there would have been a PI flag still.

They don't get paid much.    Many of these refs have 2nd jobs

Hopefully they are better at their other jobs.

Interestingly enough cfl and nfl just announced some joint reffing thing. I’m assuming it hasn’t started yet.

I think Holm's was as surprised as I was he had the ball. 

[bustamente]

Holm lined that one up perfectly

[WinnipegGordo]

69 penalty yards for the Bombers, 15 for Ottawa.

[the watcher]

Nice pick.....let's see you find a PI call there Refs

[do or die]

Holm had that lined up....

[MOBomberFan]

like he was pulling a couple beers from the cooler
