Just embarrassing with all these stupid Elk penalties.
Go Bombers!

Well, that's the kind of RTP call I absolutely hate.
My wife is amazing!

Smacked Fajardo's head with his flying butt, that's a penalty.

Question: Is it legal for defenders in the CFL to have headsets in their helmets? Could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Riders D is using a headset.

Well there is hope in Edmonton after all. Their O line is atrocious that's one thing, but the stupid penalties are killing them!! If they cut out the penalties lookout they ll beat some teams.

I think one player does to receive a play call.

Riders have a very good D. Montreal, Calgary, Riders,  1,2,3. in the league.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

Can't find any mention of defensive headsets being allowed in the rules and I've never noticed their use before.  From what I understand the NFL has allowed them for over a decade.

You seem to be right, just my own head cannon, I guess.

I'm pretty sure no headsets except for QBs.  That's why on most plays you see the entire D stretching their necks towards the sidelines looking for the MLB hand signals...
Never go full Rider!

Waiting to re-watch the replay but I saw 2 circumstances that caused me to think Mace was talking directly to a defender on the field. In one case the D-backs were in a tight huddle and one player placed his hands over the ear holes as if trying to hear a message, just like QB's often do when the crowd is loud.

Uh oh, you're piquing my tinfoil...

If they are, and if we're right about it being disallowed, then a) that explains a LOT about SSK's rise to power, and b) this would be a huge scandal on par with "stealing MLB hand signals-gate".
