Rose was pushed. How they didn't call PI was mind boggling.

The fact that they called it, and then over turned it on review... what is the standard for offensive PI?

Clearly the only team that matters is Ottawa since we haven't beaten them. It makes sense though,  they are roughly 50% of the als schedule so they naturally see Ottawa as a bug challenge. 

Exactly. Who have we really beaten? Not Ottawa, so nobody.

That overturned OPI was hilarious 

[JCon]

Please someone explain the overturned call? We were gobsmacked in the stands that the Als challenged. And, then they won? We saw it in front of us and knew the call was coming. They showed one replay where Rose clearly gets pushed and falls down. 

How did TSN justify the "no PI" call?

We were literally laughing.

The only reason he was open was because he pushed off on Rose.

Eugene Lewis is a real good player but he does this a lot.

I have to say too our d was outstanding. Especially after that early touchdown in the 3rd quarter. They buckled down and didn’t allow Montreal to keep the momentum or when we took the league we knew they were going to try and push. I love the big hit Bighill laid as the Montreal receiver was trying to tip toe out of bounds. One of my biggest pet peeves is when these guys are dancing on the side lines no one makes them pay as they take their sweet time to go out of bounds. That was awesome.

It was. Harris was lobbying for a flag.

[Booch]

So we beat every team in the league (Ottawa doesn't count as we know that result)....some more than once..so have we been lucky with our schedule...have we been lucky cause we beat no top teams...is it just weird cause teams play bad against us..so we lucky?? ...it is so weird tho 🤣

Or is it we are best in league...and it's not even close? I pick the latter....weird hahaha

I could be wrong but I think Rose only gave up yardage in the first quarter. Once he got comfortable he locked it down.

BTW, does anyone know if Nichols was hurt? I saw Jones out there playing half back at the end. 

He was running some sprints on the sidelines, must have gotten a little nicked and was trying to convince someone to let him back in. 
 

Sure would like to know Hardrick’s injury. With the effort he puts in to cheering on the sidelines I can’t fathom that he isn’t good to play.

Agreed on all of that, and the bolded drives me nuts.

CoFaj is the absolute worst at trying to get calls by sliding/getting down late or slow up going out of bounds to get bumped.

Refs have caught on and it is why he doesn't/won't get the benefit of the doubt anymore. 

 

Play football and don't just look for shitty calls because you can't move the ball on your own.

He’s displaying some decent vertical for a man his size if he has a hip issue…

Just weird how lucky we are and how everyone plays their worst against us.

The Als played well, but no points in the last 28 minutes...

Thorax is still my favourite MOS injury status.

If I had a vote, it would go to Jeffcoat.  That motor never stops and he plays very disciplined ball. 

I'm sliding over from team Jeffcoat to ba. When is the last time a s won modp.

 Not only that but to over turn that on review flies in the face of review rules. Typical trash command center and reffing this year. It goes in all directions but still isn't close to consistent. 

[rebusrankin]

Just watched the replay and don't see how that call was overturned.

 

As for MODP, Biggie, Alexander, Jefferson, Jeffcoat could all get the nod and I'd be like yep.

[Geebrr]

Bighill is still my DMOP 

Lots of guys on this team are worthy candidates though.

Some one needs to tell our big wrs it's OK to straight up run into a db arm out pancake em and make a catch. The offense will be un stopable 

[Geebrr]

Alford came from about 10 yards away on that pick.

Excellent read and timing. That was the "baiting" that Nick Marshall gets so much credit for.

[Noeller]

Re: the overturned OPI call..... On the initial watch I thought Rose fell easily. Not saying he dove, but felt like he was a small guy who lost a battle. I wasn't surprised they overturned it. Still looked bad, just on optics, to overturn that.

So the bighill hit was close to being late. Receiver stepped out before, but the whistle wassow and the receiver kept playing like he was in. I can see why people would be upset and maybe a flag is thrown if the refs are calling a 0 tolerance game... but if the receiver wants to keep running you gotta expect the D will keep playing too.

That was a reputation non call, too.... Bighill isn't known for being someone to play outside the lines. 

[TBURGESS]

Both feet were OOB before Bighill destroyed him. We've all seen that kind of play called RP tons of times. No surprise that the ALs wanted a penalty.

Most of Marshals and Gainey's interceptions are poorly thrown balls right in their gut as they just standing there..not due to coverage or a great anticipation play....especially Gainey...most overrated and considered all start worthy defensive back in league....Marshal has a bit more skill but is all yap yap yap after the whistle..but if u watch him play doesn't have a set of onions to stick his nose in there and make a hit..he ***** foots around and almost avoids any contact..neither one would make our roster..or Ham...Mtl...CGy and I woukd even say Toronto's....be tough to crack Edmonton's too
