Sig uniforms for Ottawa and a guaranteed win in BC let's see how this plays out.

I'm hoping Sask beats BC as I expect the last playoff spot will be between Bombers and BC.

Stamps and Esks are the top tier in the CFL and Bombers, Riders and Lions are the second tier.  The last playoff spot will be determined by how well we play against the Riders and the Lions IMHO.  

Gonna miss both games today. I'll see a bit of the 1st quarter in Ottawa. I'm in Vancouver watching my son's practices at SFU & then spending time with family in Bellingham, Washington afterwards today. 

Calgary wore their red helmets vs Hamilton & black ones vs Ottawa? That makes no sense. Why would the CFL allow both teams to wear black helmets. Calgary should be wearing their red ones. 

Oh my, Mitchell's pass tipped at LOS & Jonathan Williams takes it back for 6. That looked like a bit of a nonchalant throw.

I think there's less difference than you think there is. Both the Esks and Stamps have escaped by the skin of their teeth a few times. Obviously they're at the top right now, but that could change by the end of the season. 

Where are the ridiculous Ottawa helmets???

You're right.... Holy crap.

These jerseys are nicer than their regular ones

@paddyneufeld They'll be worn the second time we wear the jerseys.

I see Cornish is back.  Too bad the BB couldn't have a crack at the Stamps without him.

They just said Ottawa is the only team starting a cdn at sam

I've been watching the game and it's getting quite nauseating listening to miller and forde pump ottawas tires so much. IMO, the biggest problem with Ottawa right now is the QB. Buriss ain't passing the ball, he's throwing it.. and he's missing receivers badly. I'd put in demarco if I was ottawa but because hank is signed to such a huge contract, i doubt that happens any time soon. 

Second game? This whole signature jersey thing makes no sense at all.

Ottawas secondary is pure garbage. I'd be embarrassed if I cared.

So when people say Bombers lucky to be 6-3 having squeaked out wins against the East. What's the difference between them and other west teams squeaking out wins? Calgary has barely won against Hamilton and Ottawa twice.

You know the difference...Calgary couldn't possibly suck.  I say let them keep doing it...motivate the Bombers even more. 

Ottawa's offense is awful. Henry Burris stinks.

lol it's 32-7. This game IMO was never in doubt, Calgary has like a 15 minute advantage in time of possession. This is ridiculous actually. 

Ottawa fans are already starting to turn on the team, I dreaded this would happen....again.

The fans were never the issue in Ottawa, not sure why anyone thinks that. They have had the worst ownership groups in the CFL in the past. The attendance has always been good. I can't blame them for booing, their team hasn't scored an offensive touchdown at home this year besides the trick play one and i believe that might be considered a special teams touchdown. And demarco is hurt on a tough play there, guy got tackled in to him, He done for a while now. 

Two low hits in a row on Demarco in a 25 point game. Thats bull ****.

Turner was tackled in to him, I'm not sure how he could have avoided that one. 

Can't fault Turner on the last one blocked into Demarco
