YAY INTERCEPTION! Such a beauty drive that they were having... super happy that ottawa got that interception to humble glenn a bit

I thought they reviewed all fumbles but apparently its only if they actually rule it a fumble... thats interesting because a challenge shouldn't have to be used on this turn over.  In these close instances I figured they just always reviewed, I think they should. 

Encircled with forward progress? Might be the worst call of the year.

Definitely a fumble. Refs trying to give the riders the game again. Last week with the obvious missed roughing the kicker, now this?

Only in the CFL do they make it up as they go, never heard the term encircled before 

The term encircle is actually in the rules; but I only found it used in three times and it is used as a penalty except for if the player being encircled is the ball carrier.  By all intents and purposes that should have been a fumble; that was screwed up on the first call on the field and was messed up on the challenge review as well.

Powell seems determined to carry the RedBlacks on his back to victory. Even Lindley looks like a credible quarterback. Hmmm.........

How does Maher have a job. Every attempt over 35 is a prayer with him 

Just terrible play calling. Powell is ripping up the Rider defense and on both stalled drives they got away from Powell on first down forcing the Red Blacks to pass on second and long.. I get keeping the defense honest but make them stop Powell first before getting too cute. 

Well well well looky here, the Ridirts are getting Lindleyed

This is what I love about this league, the Tanner Marsh's and Ryan Lindleys can cause upsets like this.

dedicated career kicker/punters are very rare.  All too often a college punter is a guy who wanted to, but couldnt play another position. If a kid dedicated him self to kicking/punting in HS and followed a wise supporting set of sports they could very nearly guarantee a TC shot at the least. Even more so if you are a nuck.

It's nice that we're not the team getting Lindleyed.  Or Butlered.  Or even Lulayed.

That's why I don't dismiss last week's win.  Wins are hard.  Every win is a precious diamond.*

 

*bad analogy - I don't give a crap about diamonds

Oh man, keep it up Redblacks!

I'm wondering if the Ridirts fans are having a ref ***** fest though.

2nd best team in the CFL ..................okay then.

Redbacks can't be lazy with this lead though.

Expecting Riders run D to tighten up big time. But if the Redblacks do win, they're gonna have to continue to do it on the backs of their D. So far so good

I got the impression during the halftime interview with Chris Jones, Matthew Scianetti wanted to tell him to **** off when it ended. 

Ridirts in big trouble now lol, their fan base has to be in real meltdown mode now losing to Lindley.

Anyone watching the Invictus Games? 

Trent Richardson is in Florida??? Like, wouldn't he have taken care of any personal matters before he came up?

Whoever said Ottawa was roadkill, only roadkill I see right now is melonheads.

I'm not sure why an upset must happen...other than the obvious hate for the Riders. I always cheer for the team which helps the Bombers most...and I don't see any such situation here. The Redblacks have almost no chance in this one...unless Burris comes out of retirement.

Lol this is the CFL they always have a chance.
