Is it possible can it happen

VAJ: hold my beer...

Losers be losing

Oh wow

Wow what a finish. One that we will not see again, once they move the goal posts.

The 12,000 fans who bothered to show up didn't deserve that game, or that win.

Speaking of attendance that has to be the most poorly attended games for a weekend, HOF game was half full, Toronto was more than half empty and tonight was par for the course in Calgary

Yep, very disappointing. Canadians don't deserve this league. Once it's gone, it'll never come back.

**** the Stamps so much... Didn't deserve to win that game. Total fluke. MBT and his ancestors did everything they possibly could...

Damn I picked Ottawa :( Now do I go all in pick them twice in a row? Surely they have to win 1 game this season?

They play Calgary again next week and still have 2 games with Hamilton so they definitely have winnable games left. They've blown way too many games for me to be confident in picking them though.

I picked Ott this week and I'll take em again next week. Calgary sucks... Ott is close.

Yes they battled hard. That said Paredes could have kicked a 67 yarder with distance he had. Not sure how you defend that.

Should’ve called a run once they got second PI call. Way too much clock left to score quick when only the other team only needs a FG to win

You don't let it get to the point that they have a FG to win, that's how you defend against it. Ottawa had more than enough chances but kept letting Calgary back in it. Honestly thought MBT and that receiving corps did an admirable job. The D, at times, looked okay, but they should never have let that Calgary team score anywhere near that many points.

Ottawa just keeps finding ways to lose - if their kicker hadn't missed that easy FG, and Dinwiddie hadn't gone for it on 3rd down on the 10 yard line but instead taken the points, Ottawa wins that game. I get that kickers miss sometimes but not taking that easy 3 points was just silly.

If they simply kicked the FG instead of going for it when they were down 7-0, they'd have gone to OT. That's so Ottawa.

yup that's what I thought I said in my prior post...

That's the most entertaining game I've seen all year.

VAJ is historically terrible in end-of-game situations, so of course he takes the big sack to put his kicker in a bad spot. But it's the redblacks so of course Paredes hits the kick of his life.

The redblacks have lost in ways that have never ever been seen in the CFL before. They were the first team to lose on a 62-yard walk off field goal, first team to lose the 2-point overtime conversion shootout. Maybe they'll lose the first game ever called due to weather...

That already happened in a game between Sask and Mtl a few years ago... so Mtl holds that title

Last Friday in Montreal, Mother Nature’s wicked wrath wreaked havoc on a game between the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Alouettes.

Those redblack receivers have certainly put up way better numbers that you'd expect from an 0-12 team. I'd welcome any of them onto the Bombers.

I would love to see Pimpleton in Blue and Gold.

yeah, that dude is a rare guy who is an every-play contributor on O and a scary returner to boot.

But the guy I've always wanted in blue and gold is Hardy. Makes plays everywhere on the field, no matter who his QB is and is hella durable, he's only missed two games in the past three seasons. Currently fourth in the league in catches and eighth in yards. I can't believe the dude is nearly 35 and is still at his peak while playing under the bad moon in Ottawa.
