Suitor made a bunch of excuses for Rourke -- he had only one day with the full set of receivers, only three days in camp, lots of unfamiliar receivers, was unfamiliar with game speed and needed to remember what it was like to be hit, but then clarified that he was not making excuses for Rourke. and actually I kind of agree that this poopy game wasn't really Rourke's fault; the call to put him on the field without so little preparation was crazy. Bad football ops by BC. They exposed their prize kid to a beating, potentially alienated their MOP-candidate starter, cut their insurance policy, and looked really bad in front of a decent crowd. Why not start Dolegala until Rourke is spliced in a little more thoroughly? The dude is still raw, he started like ten games two years ago; he's not exactly a wily CFL veteran.

they were our first road win too.

so one thing about our starting extra Canadians at the start of the year is that two games ago it allowed us to replace national starters with imports while not disrupting starters at any other positions. Lucky in for Woli and Randolph in for Neuf. speaking of national starters, I didn't hear Kramdi's name at all. that seems like a good sign. SAM isn't a position you can hide at. Just two tackles this game. is upright running a sign that the player is looking more to accelerate into a big play instead of pounding through a hard one?

Augustine also a spinach eater.

why wouldn't you kick a field goal there? terrible coaching. Lucky eating his spinach. strong running.

three score game.

oooof. forcing a throw into triple coverage under pressure. not good.

nice pursuit by 32 Griffin there! got to Rourke in a big hurry even if he didn't make the play. love to see it.

Kid Sideline Because My D Can't Get The Ball Back.

Pokey elusive.

wow, that endzone shot on the 2nd-and-10 stop really emphasizes how wide the Bomber three-man front is. The D is outnumbered 3-to-2 right down the middle of the field.

ooof. looks like Rourke ain't the only guy on the field who picked up a case of Printersitis in the NFL.

oh that was a nice play design. 5-10 yard bubble around Wilson. wiiiiiiide open.

also he broke the news that Chris Jones was going to Hamilton. dude is multitasking today.

call me a cynic but I don't think Chad Kelly wrote that statement.

Lucky out lead blocking for Lawler. if you told me this time last year that we'd replace Sheed with Lucky Whitehead and it would not be a downgrade I would not have taken that seriously.

I love that Kid Canada was just pick-sixed by the other Kid Canada's unheralded brother. goddammit. penalty.

Kid Slouch. I dig Rugged Lucky.

Two stats guys with the same birthday? What are the chances? c'mon you booth bozos it was lying right there.

I can't remember ever seeing a two-man rush.

VA gonna be a TiCat again. Suitor deep into the Rourke copium. "He's just not at game speed yet."

yup. bully ball us until we start pulling guys closer to the LOS and that's gonna open up some holes downfield. BC hasn't been the same since Hatcher came back, I wonder if the multiple position changes they made to accommodate him have jacked up their passing attack.

I don't know why BC insists on passing 30+ times a game against us when the one thing our D does poorly is stop the run...Campbell and his OC just love throwing the ball so much.

Blue get home rushing three again. Didn't even leave Bighill to spy the QB, they dropped him into coverage too. that three-man rush was how we demolished BC two weeks ago, nice to see it in action again.
