    Dru Brown almost 500 yards.

  • Elks are the most creative team in the league.......in a perverse way.

    Wow 🤣🤣 if there was ever a million dollar arm, 10 cent brain analogy/comparison when it came to kicking, it would be Boris Bede.   Wonder if Chris Jones finally just got fired?

And why didnt Edmonton let the clock run down on 3rd down? They could have avoided Ottawa getting the ball back.

Yeah the whole sequence there should have brought them down to 0 by 3rd down.  Really poor game management all around.

Also should have had Bede HAMMER the kickoff and force Ottawa to make a play to avoid the game winning rouge.

Brown's contract ends the same time as Zach's... Brown's contract ends the same time as Zach's..........

So, I know where you're going with this. Then we get into the same problem we have now. We overpaid for Brady. Overpaid for Zach. We overpaid for Schoen. Overpaid for Lawler. Overpaid for Bighill. Overpaid for BA. Sure, those contracts will be off the books by the end of 2025 but... to sign Brown we'll have to outbid Ottawa & every other CFL team. Would we do that? If we did, then we have one more player who is now overpaid & chances are will also have 3 or 4 more that will need new contracts as well. Now, we're up against the cap again like we are now. We'll have to let some promising players go.

Unfortunately his coach (Jones) threw Bede under the bus by making a point of blaming that decision completely on him. Not a great way to get people to work for you and give a little extra, probably one of the main reasons Elks tend to lose so many close games.

Bede has a very strong leg. I dont think he's that accurate though.

Jones may not get fired until they switch to private ownership.

 

Historically he's been a little erratic but last year he was money. Like 95% on field goals and his punting was outstanding.
