I watched the Edm Cgy game and the officiating was a total embarrassment in that one as well. Reilly took late hits and cheap shots all game long... And, how there was no helmet-to-helmet penalty on the play where Sherrit ear-holed Rogers is unforgivable. Spectacular hit, but another case where the league talks tough on protecting players and then does sweet eff all

MB trying his own version of Chris Jones' mad genius/oops that was dumb -style play calling?

Is that Marcel Bellefeuille in the blue trunks? MB demos his secrets to scheming effective o-line max protection!

The Esks players dancing around while Drew lay on the ground also ticked me off Typical Chris Jones defence - they play well but have plenty of classless moments

Reply showed Brohm with an iffy hold... Easily could have caught some lacing resulting in the miss. As for the other FG miss and the missed converts... Well no excuses for any part of this kicking mess!

Regarding the lack of pressure from the DL... I've always liked Zach Anderson but for all his size and strength - he seems to get the least push off the line... Can anyone add as to why this might be?

NOT a touchdown Hot damn the cfl pisses me off some days

Looked like Greg Marshall 2.0 plus a lobotomy out there

Great win after the setback against Ottawa!

Sorry but do you mean Pat DelMonaco??? Wouldn't that make it a bit of a reunion for them?

Crazy times... They've got as many points as the mighty Blackhawks AND the Penguins! Nice to win whether it's with the A game or some good breaks every now and then.

Ugh from a 3-1 lead to OT. A single point isn't the end of the world but two points to keep up to Chicago and St.Louis would be even better.

In regards to the Lions record over the last two seasons - Lulay getting hurt and KG being KG aren't exactly things you can hang on Benevides either...

According to the Freep last night's performance improves them to 7th league wide for goals against. Now to see if they can be consistently this good.

It's not just O'Shea; player recruiting and the coordinators need to be better next season. Was surprised to be reminded Benevides is in his third season as an HC - there were plenty of times when I thought for sure he was gonna get axed. Here some are saying chop O'Shea by Labour Day??!! Obviously if the team goes winless the first half of next season then sure (as that would basically be a seasons worth of straight losses). I don't believe that will happen. The management genuinely seems to care and I think they'll use the offseason to think real hard about the good and the bad this year.

Agree - acknowledging the need to improve run defence would be a good start. You'd think that with all the film on Kuale this season that it should be an easy decision to give Kromah a shot to be a consistent difference maker

Like what you wrote, especially how the record and the excitement gets our expectations a little out of whack. Too bad Matthews is on the Seahawks PR

Fraser got hurt and Anderson went in for the rest of the game, with Turner moving to DE (according to Cuthbert) With the injuries piling up Hunt and Hall sure sound like what the doctor is calling for...

My wife just pointed out that the new unis might cause the refs to confuse the Bombers with the mothership in TO and that we should see a lot of phantom and non-calls go our way LOL

See a Dieter Brock jersey in the time appropriate colours is totally not hipster. A new "fan" who's never heard of the bombers before last year suddenly wants to look "authentic" so has a 2014 rookie's name on a royal blue... Well that's hipster - or it would be if anything remotely connected to football could be hipster.

Agree A 20 year old fan wearing a royal blue jersey with Grigsby stenciled on it is waaaaay more hipster than an outright ugly jersey. Hipster isn't just a word people use for whatever they don't like.

Sherman hasn't been perfect, I mean even #RandleIsland forgot how to tackle during the EE game. Sherman has had many fine moments, and so far has been a big play turnover-causing machine.

Capital pizza is good

On the one hand I told myself these kind of games are bound to happen. All to often I caught myself cursing at the TV (I'm in Edmonton) and wondering what I'd done to get exiled back to 2013... What a circus show of errors and futility. The exact opposite of the kind of game I was hoping to see, win or lose.

LOL I don't post often but I've been around here long enough to expect this. What? Reasonably suppose that MOS is smart enough to discern between talking to the media or his players? Absurd! TBurg doesn't know if he does, so neither can anyone else. But wait, the season isn't even one regular game old and he hasn't thrown his cap in the dirt or wrung his hands (figuratively speaking) while despairing over his team's shortcomings! What a Suzy Sunshine!
