Captain Blue

NFL already figured this out. People want to see the star QBs play and that means protecting them as much as possible. Sask could have - and still may have - altered our season and all it cost them was one penalty.

Biggest thing this week to me will be Buck Pierce and his plan. Collaros had the back pick but other than that suddenly had the offense moving. If we need Strev then Buck needs to find a way to manufacture a pass game.

We have some major flaws but folks, we just won a LDC and are in first place despite an 0-4 start. Tonight I'm celebrating.

That was the weirdest ending I've seen in a long time. Labour Day games are always crazy but this nearly killed me. When that kick was dead straight I screamed. Thank goodness he was short. We deserved that. I don't want to hear more about Micah Johnson when our QB was injured on a clearly intentional play.

It's just an old photo of Jake Ireland on a spinner, the time it takes to review the call depends on if someone spins it fast or slow. (This is not actually a shot at Ireland because it was not even as bad when he was there)

Also worth noting is how open the media is to criticising the CC. They've sometimes touched the topic quickly or quietly but now it's so blatant that even they are openly pointing out the flaws.

At this point they just need to get everyone on the same page. You've got refs on the field making two different calls at once (one spotting the football after a catch, the other ruling incomplete). You've got TSN guys saying this looks like he doesn't have possession and it's ruled a catch by the CC. And then sometimes the CC just throws themselves into it when a ref just butchers it all. You could show controversial plays to a coach, player, and fan and I'm not sure they would agree with the refs most times. That's the problem. No one knows anything about anything, and it's happening five times a game now.

Ya to me he caught it, turned and fumbled into his own hands. We see these types of catch-fumbles all the time. Only difference this time is he was in the air, landed and fumbled.

To be honest I think one takeaway from this game is that some of the backups are backups for a reason. First example is Eli who still struggles to pass block. But the new LBs struggled too.

Thought so but was caught off guard with Ford rambling about how clearly it isn't even a debate

One thing that doesn't matter now but the Wilson incomplete at the end of the game somewhat looked like a catch and fumble. Especially give the Hamilton "catch" earlier.

Did not think they would score a TD there but very happy to be wrong. Collaros was freaking awful but put one good drive through to Dave us. Lots to work on but a W for the good guys sends the crowd home happy.

Just no confidence we can actually score a TD

Command Centre guy just throwing darts so this will be a win for Hamilton. Not too much contact but by definition they could call it.

Offense lost us the game

Either incomplete or pick, so it will be ruled a catch

You can tell the CC is holding the hands of these refs constantly. There is no way they overturn this despite the fact White never actually holding the ball long enough.

This game just flat out sucks

Collaros just can't operate the quick game sometimes. Thought we had something there but it died again.

Milanovich getting his offense going with a corpse at QB. That was a horrendous third quarter. Bombers just looked dead.

It's hard with the injuries but Buck really has nothing ready to get the offense going. Those are unacceptable plays to kill a drive.

They need to get the training wheels back on Zach. Would like to see a lot more short throws like the first BC win. He's rattled and not in sync with the receivers. Lawler also just struggling.

Offense better wake up...

Hamilton D looks like they got the Jones playbook down...not sure of some of these hits

We take safety seriously
