Desjardins calling Glenn would be funny.  I remember Glenn being real sour about his last dealings with Marcel.

naw, I mean, who is a free agent out there that they can sign?

Uhhh... pull James Franklin out of retirement I guess if you want more terribad QBs. I guess Jonathon Jennings, but they already tried and failed with that experiment.

[wbbfan]

Maybe they'll end up with streveler if he gets cut. Bridge maybe. Or Bennett where is he. 

[SpeedFlex27]

LaPo make a simple play complicted by throwing the ball on playaction on second & 2 & not get it.

Also David Watford is currently a free agent 🤣

I think the Bombers are committed to McGuire if Streveler is cut loose. Would they bring him back?

[johnzo]

A Jennings / Davis reunion in Ottawa would be ... jesus, how do you possibly sell tickets for that?

god Brandon Bridge was brutal. 

how can the rb's roll out Nichols now that there's film of how jacked up his arm is?  he looks like Stefan Lefors out there.  real shame.

He isn't an NFL qb. He may be on an NFL roster at present but he can't play at that level doing what NFL qbs do. He's a niche qb.

[Bomber_fanaddict]

Wow!!! What a game. Zero offensive TDs and Nichols had less than 75 yards passing and managed to win?!?

[Mark F]

love that guy tuck

 

Im gonna do it, Im gonna score the comeback td. oh crap.

 

anyway, good game, really enjoyed it

Mcguire. Money is an issue too. 

This game tried to turn into a gooder at the end. 

That's the worst offensive out put to win a game in cfl and pro football history. 

 2 Plays from the 30 the best jump ball wr and they throw unders. 

[johnzo]

never change, CFL.

Another classic Trevor Harris game. 33 completions, well over 300 yards passing, 75%completion rate, and in the end a loss on the ledger.

I'm not sure what's funnier - the fact the Elks managed to lose that game, or the fact that, by virtue of point differential, the RedBlacks currently sit atop the standings in the East.

That win was ugly as sin.

[JuranBoldenRules]

Edmonton is running a horrifically overcomplicated offense.  You're playing a team that basically can't get a first down on offense, you have Walker, Wilder and you're running dig routes to a fullback lined up in isolation, then bracketed (covered over and under) in coverage 15 yards down the field (the 3rd INT)!!!  WTF is this.  Also way too many passes to a really inexperienced guy like Ross which cost them dearly.

Edmonton had to finish one drive to win this game even with handing Ottawa a TD.

Have no idea how Lapolice and the rest of the braintrust in Ottawa made the calculation that the best bet for them was pushing all the chips into the middle of the table on Nichols.  His throwing arm is clearly shot, he's almost two years off the injury, it's not getting better now.  

Games like this should really make us appreciate O'Shea's ability as a coach along with his staff.

And no TD's.  Scored one for the other team to lose the game.

It's the most Trevor Harris loss ever. Little time on the clock and a long way to the endzone and he's throwing 5 yard passes expecting the receiver to run for yards. No **** they ran outta time before they got to the endzone.

The funniest thing to me is that “Will they go 14-0” Hamilton is in last place in the CFL standings right now. 

[SpeedFlex27]

Nick Arbuckle & Dane Evans sit on the bench of their respective teams. The RedBlacks & Lions should be on the phone trying to pry both out of their teams.
