Both these teams look pretty awful on D IMO. BC has no pass rush which was basically what they relied on last year. Toronto has a decent DL and McManis but the secondary looking kind of suspect.

Weird ******* fumble.

Wonder what it will take to get teams to go for 2 point conversions more regularly. The conversion rate on 1 pt PAT's this week has been pretty bad. 3 Argos run at a guy on a 2 yard out and leave 3 Lions running GO routes all alone. Janarion has no wheels. Works hard for those last two yards though.

Both ACL's and hip. Not sure VAJ is going to survive this game. Getting crushed repeatedly.

VAJ taking a pounding in short yardage. BC listed 9 Canadians as "starters" on depth chart, 4 on D. 2 have to be on field at all times.

Neither Global is taking a spot from someone else. They couldn't cut them and replace them with Americans or Canadians. They'd just have a 10 man PR. If you have 11, 1 has to be Global. If you have 12, 2 have to be Global. So it's kind of an overstatement to have any concern about it.

Can only go one on each side of the ball.

Dropping one on O would actually force them to always use 2 Canadians on D. They do for the most part anyways. Of course they could nationalize Alexander or Wilson or Jefferson.

Returner situation is ridiculous. We started the season with a guy who didn't even return punts in the pre-season game. The pre-season had no focus on preparing for the real game. Special teams easily cost us 10 points in that game aside from Castillo. Chris-Ike is an extremely raw rookie. I was pretty surprised he made the opening roster. Easily could have kept Rosery as a solid teams guy who can back up all over the offense and maybe even fill that blocking back role. Now we'll probably bring on Murphy when we drop Mitchell and Chris-Ike will go down to PR for Feltmate in the next couple weeks who is more of a pure special teamer with not a ton of utility.

Because they like him and he's an upgrade on special teams. PR spot basically opens up because Lawler is down. Wouldn't be surprised to see a bit of a roster shift this week with Mitchell coming off for someone who can cover kicks (like Jones) and Holm/Bonds returning punts.

I mean the one PR spot is only for a Global player. So if they cut one they just decrease the PR size by one. Feltmate is a really solid add. Surprised Hamilton didn't leave him on Retired List. And the answer is who the **** cares. Jones has been moving guys in and out of that defense like a moron. All rookie secondary cost him the game yesterday.

Ouellette is trash. Could have spent that money on a good player.

Kind of stupid to kick the PAT there and not go for 2 and the 9 point lead.

They really need to make Edmonton's down and distance colour on the score bug different than the colour for a penalty flag.

Liked the Rider receiver yelling for the facemask on his own guys tackle of the Edmonton DB with the pick. Forgot which team he plays on for a few seconds?

I understand. It's stupid. I wonder at what point management/team president intervenes. I don't care if you want to put 12 Canadians on the field....this roster rule allows more flexibility and there's zero downside. Could spend 5 minutes each week to figure out who it is. Abdication of duty for whoever is setting the roster to not do it. They wouldn't submit a roster short a DI. It's basically the same thing.

Yeah they'll play who they want for whatever sets. The rule just gives them even more flexibility. Say you have 1-2-3-4 injuries in a game. Gives you the ability to basically put 12 on the field especially on D where they are only "starting" 1 Canadian really. It's insane to just completely ignore it. They could basically run the defense without even thinking about the ratio in terms of their sub packages.

This ref looks surprised that he got on the field.

Man Litre didn't look good taking that snap. Came up really high. Wouldn't get more than a yard like that.

BLM lost his fastball. Only has a sinker left.

Could easily use it on Jefferson with the American DL we have dressed. Designate him and for 22 snaps when he's out there you can have an all-American D.

Spotter doing a great job when the guy in distress runs another play and then gets pulled.

Lotta fear in the playcalling in this game. Shitty QB's.

Can only drink beer at McMahon tonight and each team gets one bucket of water for post game showers.

Honestly better than something with a joint or collarbone. He'll be back by Labour Day.
