Don't see any parallel's between the Manning Cast and bringing on someone that one fanbase would know and most casual fans would barely recall to interrupt broadcasting of gameplay. I think if the CFL did version without PBP maybe more of just a panel over the game broadcast it could be popular with the right people. The problem with the TSN production is that it does everything it can to draw away from the actual game, the actual sport but doesn't even do that with anything or anyone remotely interesting that might actually draw in some more casual fans/fans who aren't following the two teams playing that night. The CFL should be pissed at how the games are produced but their own marketing has the same problem. The formula is pretty simple, the NFL and NBA have mastered it. The CFL and TSN continue to try to chart their own course and continue to fail.

BC. Potentially Calgary if they don't make the QB change soon.

Our new Global was impactful on teams last night. Maruo playing a regular role on D and teams too. Our next OL up is also a Global. Are we limited to only dress 2?

I see all 4 of those teams being between 7 and 9 wins.

Dunigan really tore Benevides a new one last night.

It took awhile for the passing game to get going last season too. Our first and third games last year pretty closely mirror our offensive production these first couple games, with no downfield passing. Oliviera had one good game and one pretty bad one. Tonight he was better, just too much hesitation.

This has to be Lapo's last shot. He's got an unbelievably poor win percentage in what is basically a .500 league. The lack of discipline and his own decisions toward the end of games under 3 mins when the HC has to manage the clock are just awful.

Ottawa's back did it tonight. It's hard to do on 20 carries, 25-30 touches a game like Harris did. But any decent back in this league can get to the second level by making someone miss or getting through contact.

Harris has put up insane yards after contact year after year. It's not unusual with the lack of run formations now to get contact early. The good-great backs handle it and get to the second level. Our guys now can't. Could get Demski a lot more involved in run game. But not sure either back now same kind of threat as Harris to leak out in passing game to draw defensive attention to open up the wide gaps. Demski can run between tackles too though.

Kind of an all or nothing type. If he gets into second level dangerous, but mostly not getting through the line. Fine change of pace. Need someone more consistent and passing threat too. Think passing game needs to open up quite a bit. Can see when they run more downfield stuff how much better Collaros moves around and makes plays.

They both aren't good enough. Think we'll be flipping the ratio soon. Offensive gameplan way too conservative to allow this level of talent at RB to succeed. We're playcalling like 33 still in the backfield.

Need a back that's more decisive. Teams will stack box until we get one, just fill the gaps and wait him out.

Play of the game by Liegghio. Why aren't we taking knees?

Losing that timeout costs Ottawa half a minute.

Nothing. Glass is the only one playing the ball the receiver already quit on the play.

Terrible hold on Sayles that second down play. No chance Masoli can load up that throw without it.

Not sure why we don't have a new American kicker in camp every week until we find a good one.

If we signed Hansen we’d have 4 legitimate Globals who can play. Excited to see the new guy this week #42 out of France via Laval.

There's no way in hell MBT should be on the field right now.

Ok MBT should be coming out.

Can't move the hashmarks enough to help QB's who can't pass. Also Dom Davis is terribly immobile, not sure why he's the sneak/option QB.

Toronto lineman gets ejected because refs lollygagging after whistle. Ackie ran 6 yards to knock lineman down well after play. Should be ejected too.

Especially in Hall’s scheme where each DB (including any LBs who aren’t blitzing) has route coverage responsibilities. If you’re assuming “safety” means a guy just staying on top of one side of the field covering a deep half or covering the middle third none of what you’re watching in this D will make sense. Who the “safety” is in that over the top coverage sense changes based on the alignment and routes run by the opposing offense.

It’s not intent but the rule is that you can’t lower your head to initiate contact and can’t contact head and neck as the primary point of contact at all on any ball carrier. They should flag this like crazy until there is compliance. They don’t want guys sticking their head in rather than actually tackling, that’s how you end up with more Hefney’s with neck injuries. There’s also the CTE issue.

Also think he would have likely got clocked by the same two guys sliding feet first. They didn’t change course when he hit the turf with contact and he would have taken contact helmet to face mask. Only difference would have been a penalty…maybe.
