  1. 1 challenge is enough, especially if the eye in the sky can overturn badly missed calls like head shots. I don't want a return to fishing challenges every game.
  2. That's the same story we've told for the last decade or so about the Bomber/Rider grey cup.
  3. I don't think the PI would have been overturned, so I agree with MOS on that one. I do think it was a lateral, not a forward pass, but we didn't get the ball, so it would have been a wasted challenge, because it would just have pushed them back.
  4. Crazy indeed. Bridge missed a wide open guy in the end zone, missed a deep ball to a wide open guy that resulted in PI and grossly under threw a wide open receiver for a pick. He also had some bad luck hitting an upright for another open receiver in the end zone. Any one of those plays makes up for his running.
  5. Franklin? Wore out his welcome in Toronto. Still has some upside. I agree that Lulay is done. New coach may want his own QB, so Jennings could be available. He's an upgrade over Bridge and doesn't have Collaros' concussion history. Glenn? Too old. Likely done. Reilly and BLM are both going to be 'available'. Would the Riders pay big bucks for either and would either want to go there considering their O line?
  6. Harris - The guy that makes our offense work Wolo - Great TD Bennett - Game saving special teams tackle HH - The goal post for taking a TD away from the Riders
  7. 21-0 aaand it's over. Didn't see that coming.
  8. Brandon Banks says hi.
  9. 62 Grey Cups. 2 teams in each. 124 chances to make it to a Grey Cup. 5 wins in those 62 Grey Cups. Stats were to get some conversation going. How you interpret them is up to you. Some may even say it means we're due.
  10. Not saying we can't or won't win. I'm just posting the stats.
  11. 3rd place teams making it to the Grey Cup - 9 times out of 124 chances or 7.26% 3rd place teams winning the Grey Cup - 5 out of 62 games or 8.06% Last time a 3rd place team won the Grey Cup -2005 Edmonton Last time the Bomber beat the Riders in a playoff game - 1965
  12. I'm not selling anything. Just the facts. You think Nichols would have done as well in the same situation? (No Adams, Dressler, Harris or Chungh)
  13. Last year, first round would have been: Stamps and Bombers get a bye Eskimos host redblacks. Riders host Argos Lions, Ticats, Als miss the playoffs.
  14. That's why the CFL should be 1 division instead of East/West. Eskimos miss the playoffs @ 9-9. Hammy gets a home playoff game at 8-10. Single division - Stamps and Riders get a bye. Redblacks host the Esks Bombers host the Leos Als, Argos, Ticats miss the playoffs.
  15. No. For me, it's just silly to get upset about it. Let the 'Eye in the sky' take care of it and move on. The CFL has way worse problems to worry about than an idiot kicker trying for an Oscar for best actor.
  16. Diving penalty? LOL. Kickers have been doing it forever. Sometimes the refs buy it. Mostly they don't. In the old days, there was nothing the coaches could do about it. Now they can burn their challenge if they want to. I'd like to see the 'eye in the sky' be able to overturn or apply 'roughing|contacting the kicker' after a quick look.
  17. He got 190 in 3 quarters. Likely close to 300 if he played the whole game. Likely more than 300 if he had Adams, Dressler and Harris to throw to. He also threw a good deep ball and ran well, two things that Nichols doesn't do well.
  18. You realize that Bennett played the 3rd quarter, right? You have to look at who he was playing with too. No Adams, Dressler, Harris (After 3 plays) or Chungh. He turned several sure sacks into short gains and a couple into first downs. A couple of great deep balls to Washington and Simonise. Got us back in the game when he was put back in in the 4th. That's a good game for any QB, but a great game for a rookie.
  19. Streveler - Great running. Good passing. Lankford - Better kicker than receiver or returner Sayles - Another good game from the rookie HH: Washington for the 80 yard TD
  20. Saskatchewan Roughriders‏Verified account @sskroughriders - SIGNED: •International quarterback, Drew Tate Collaros done for the year?
  21. Now that it looks like we're not bringing many starters, how do I change my vote from Winnipeg to Edmonton?
  22. You sir are wasteful.
  23. I couldn't care less who we play and I mean it. Just win a freaking playoff game.
  24. We can argue if he maintained possession or not, but the ball did cross the goal line. Play #149: #Stampeders pass at the goal line ruled incomplete. All potential scoring plays are automatically reviewed. After review, the Replay Official ruled there was no clear and obvious evidence the ruling on the field was incorrect. The call on the field stands. #CFL — CFL Football Operations (@CFLFootballOps) October 27, 2018 More here: http://3downnation.com/2018/10/27/cfl-command-centre-just-help-snuff-esks-playoff-chances/
  25. Nichols - That's what I've been waiting for all year. Didn't 17 tell me that Nichols couldn't get 300 yards with our receivers and PLAP as his OC? Bighill - Another forced fumble Adams - Our deep ball threat HH - Wolo for his big catch.
