Elks are close? Maybe on some of the plays lol. I kind of agree with Noeller to an extent. It's no coincidence that BCs best games have been against the Elks this year. Rourke is good though. Looks like he will be in the NFL next year

How the hell can Ante-Litre be a starting running back?

Need to save roster spots to have Charles Nelson and Duron Carter play DB and return kicks.

Fastball in the dirt!  Too bad, had Lawler isolated on the WIL.

Average blocker, stone hands & slower than molasses. He was a spot player in Calgary. The Elks have no run game. He's why. 

[BBlink]

Its like they didn't practice with Jon Ryan punting or Ryan is putting way more hangtime on his punts than appropriate. Could have been called for another no yards earlier too

[coach17]

Last game Elks played they made another star QB and some very good receivers look pretty average.

Ryan was made for the NFL.  He's always sucked up here, just a big leg, terrible placement.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Montreal have 4 1000 yard receivers one year? Rourke could have at least 3 receivers over 100 this game,Rourke has to be getting many NFL scouts following him. He's 24(just turned) and has many good tools for a qb.

Nelson didn't want BC to get a 31 point lead.

Definitely in the 90th percentile for arms we've seen in this league lately.  Even Cornelius with his big gun puts half the balls right into the ground.

I'd love to play BC fully healthy. Cleaning up explosion plays is getting better and thats all we have to eliminate from BC and they become one dimensional.

[BBlink]

One downside of the hash marks being in the middle of the field is how close they are to the goalpost. 

On the safety the RT took the outside blitzer instead of Betts. All he had to do was block Betts and the goalpost would have taken the blitzer

[BBlink]

Duron Carter just useless lol. Can't even hit someone late right.

[do or die]

What a waste of space Duron Carter is.......

[JuranBoldenRules]

Campbell's pretty ignorant leaving Rourke in.

The reps here have no value, all they are trying to do is keep him from getting hit and not turn it over.

I have a feeling I know who the player of the week will be…

Those downplaying BC are kidding themselves. That team is scary.

Yeah they've worked their way through the B division, only played 2 on the road so far.

Yeah, he looked real happy playing for the Elks last night. Other than one pass I remember him catching, the guy was invisible.

Who have they played? The beat hapless Elks twice? Then Ottawa, Toronto, Hamilton & the Riders. Lions have only played two road games so far. The Bombers beat them at home. They haven't travelled to Calgary. Let them put up big numbers in their climate controlled stadium. Playing on the road is a lot different than playing at home. They're good but not as good as fans think they are. The road to the Grey Cup goes thru Winnipeg in November.

This is a lose-lose game for us - Chris Jones is a bum and a clown and I wish him nothing more than to continue reaping the chaos that he has sewn, however with a win the media is going to go completely rock hard for the Lions again and that's all we're going to hear about until they lose. Sigh. 😕

Good… I hope everyone is talking about how great BC is… I hope they are ranked #1 in the power rankings… meanwhile the back-to-back champs will just keep piling up wins and somehow remain under the radar… works for me

How the hell do you expect to get chemistry and continuity when you're changing your line en masse every single week? Lots of decent players being under utilized with that joke of a coach

The more time goes on… the more I see the similarities between Chris Jones and Mike Kelly… enjoy the next 4 years Edmonton…

I could see him and his salary being released this offseason. Would be a very Chris Jones move

The fact that Winnipeg walked into their barn on short week and thumped them should have pumped the brakes on the BC is super Duper awesome narrative.

Have we passed vet cut down day that his salary for the year is guaranteed? Would be very CJ like to release him this week. 

[Stickem]

When the leos get the stove back.....they'll be a challenge....Don't know what his date of return is as he had an injury in the offseason that's keeping him out of the lineup.....They seem to be doing alright without him right now....he can only make them better....

[rebusrankin]

I think BC is a good team and they'll be a challenge as will Calgary. Key will be to finish first and force those two to duke it out in a semi before coming here for a cold, wintery WF.
