It really isn't.

Oh was today THAT day? Wonder what the new date will be? They're like the end of the world people...."oh we had our calculations wrong....the day the world will end is ACTUALLY blah blah blah"

I agree about Lucky to a certain extent. He was misused here for the most part. But the things he excels at aren't that hard to shut down. I don't expect him to keep this pace up, but I am rooting that he does! Just not against the Bombers.

Injured or not, some of Bo's decisions last night were baffling. One interception had at least 4 defenders around it. His ball does seem to lack some zip too, but it's his reading of the Defense that has been the major issue. It completely sucked last night.

plus 2 (maybe 3) big $ rec. Judge/muamba/willis/hughes can't be cheap on D. Plus two QBs making decent $ anyway. And I wouldn't call that Oline cheap. The 3 interior aren't making the min that's forsure.

They just added Ray to the 6 game cause Defensive Ends definitely need healthy fingers to play...no for real, they added him to the 6 game because he has a finger injury....he's a Defensive end. So using the 6 game is one strategy they're using.

Man TO's Rec coor looks solid...hopefully our young guys can step up and the DL gets lots of pressure.

But....how?

Damn can we give the Nichols issue a rest...some people like him....some people don't. Get over it.

Stanback

I was less impressed by Nelson. He had more opportunities than Bailey and basically did nothing. Admittedly the play calls to him/execution of the blocking was fairly bad too.

On that INT. It's on both players. The pass was low and behind making it a much harder catch than it should have been. But the rec also got both hands on the ball and should have been able to pull it in.

That's just not factual. I'm not a big fan of Nichols after 2017 myself. But you make it sound like he was Brohm out there. In 2019 he was top of the pack when it came to deep ball completions and was playing at a high level. I was honestly blown away with that kick. Dude has a rocket for a leg! Good thing his accuracy is brutal.

If you look back at his career, he is usually gone from the organization by the time the line is playing like it should. And thats not at all a shot at him. Just the reality of football, it can take a year or two before olines gel. Ottawas oline will be good, likely not this year though. That was like Wilder last night. Final drive he makes a solid play and gets hit out of bounds...team is still losing...gets up and poses like he did something special and then has to hustle back to the huddle...and we all know the outcome. Just thought it looked real dumb on his part.

Ssk vs bc....was not what I was expecting, but not hard to believe it happened either. The home advantage is real in Regina and playing against a pure rookie....inwouldnt be too excited about that W considering how it played out. Ssk vs Ham will be interesting to see which rider team shows up. Also....thought the qb situation with the lions was fairly bush league looking. In the end it was the right call I guess...as it turn the momentum To vs cgy....this one played out basically how I thought it would. Cgys new players showed some flashes but they will need time to gel and in a short season that might be an issue. Edm vs ott....who saw Ott winning this? Lol. Wow both offenses look bad. Edm is more of the same with Harris...stats but no points. Nichols and Flanders had better figure out time travel cause neither looked like they belonged on the field. Especially Flanders imo. Looked out of shape and seemed slow. Nichols arm strength looks questionable to say the least. Bordering on Micheal Reilly bad.

Did I say Oliveira? I meant Burnham....spell check got me again!!

He caught the ball, or did he? They're gonna give.him the first down, or will they? He was using some classic Rod one liners!! Lol. But yeah, it's notnjust one or two mistakes. He does play by like he's talking to someone who has never seen a football game....and he been making the same.mistakes for over a decade. It's time to move on. Also while I was at the game I kept seeing the drone they used for the over head shots. Great idea. I legit thought it must have been someone just messing around, cause there's no way TSN would be that innovative. Happy to be proven wrong.

Some concessions were bad. I didn't have a single problem the entire night. Driving there, the only place that got backed up was near Kelvin High school. Smooth sailing after. I got there and say a line that went from the stadium to university Cresent....so I just walked an extra 5 meters (no lie) and joined the next line which was about 10 people deep. Got checked and was in. No hassle at all. Went up to my seats, grabbed a couple beers after waiting behind two people. Sat down for a bit, went back to grab some food. Probably the longest wait of the night....about 15min. Noticed the one beer line was legit 40 people deep...figured I'd wait till the game started, but turned to my left and the beer kiosk in the middle was empty...went there and grabbed some more beer, no wait. After the game, I didn't hang around like I normally do, just straight back to the car(gold lot) Sat in the car for about 15min waiting for the line to move and then was gone. Some of you sound like you just sat around in lines, try looking for other options next time, you'll save yourself a bunch of time.

Arbuckle has been hurt for a bit.

Hey man chill out. It's GAME DAY!! No room for negativity here!!!

Mine is listed as Gate 2.

You're assigned gate isn't where you park. It's what your ticket says. So unfortunately you got some walkin to do.

Yeah Lucky SHOULD have been a deep threat, but was never really given the opportunity. I do recall a few times seeing him behind coverage but the ball never made it's way to him. Too bad, but I don't think he will be a huge factor in BC.
