Wanna give a HH shout-out to Brady for soloing our O. Vintage performance, no quit. He was the only thing we had and they still couldn't stop him for the most part.

Dustin Crum... ...on a plunge after an endzone PI call.

Edmonton / Toronto is game of the week this week. two midseason renaissances collide. who to pick? 🤷 (edited after picking) wow, 50/50 so far on Elks/Argos. Everyone is over the Bombers and apparently Crumback 2.0 was a fluke.

two big upsets + two home losses. statistically unlikely week.

Typical CFL game. Starts unwatchable and by the end you can't look away. I love this weird league.

Mikawos was a good one. Watching vintage games with him as a NT, that dude could move a center around. Glad he got that 84 grey cup TD on his resume.

now I'm curious what bad will would look like. Airstrikes?

oof. man, how do you sell hope in Ottawa when Dustin Crum is starting all your games?

Thanks dude. This is what comes of listening to too much Suitor. Thing I noticed in the LDC was that Zach was frequently breaking contain and rolling out into free space after the play action, so it looked like successful RPO to me -- the plays were getting Zach out of the danger zone behind Kolo and into free space where he can do his Zach thing.

people blame the lack of Brady carries on playcalling -- but in an RPO scheme the QB has the option to pull the ball and throw it. Zach gets a vote too on how Brady's used, and given that Brady had beaten the Als pretty much singlehandedly the week before, the Saskatchewan DEs were opting to crash down on the run more often than not. Zach put up some beaucoup yards and three TDs with his arm -- we almost beat them without our best player being much of a factor. Sucks to lose, but we showed we had a passing attack even with our ragtag receiving corps and leaky pass protection, which is way more that what I expected.

I would have preferred a win.

well, best wishes for a smooth birth and a healthy baby and mom who can be a consolation to Lauther when he shits the bed in the LDC.

as a full participant in the ensuing comment frenzy ... that was not our finest hour.

Lauther out for personal reasons ... while there's another kicker in camp looking to take his job. Hmm. No mention of Harris there either.
