Vaval

EE s got screwed there. Lol

Refs are being super late to blow the whistle though.  Should have been called forward progress before the strip.

Changing the narrative
I'm with Techno
Yes TO ate

Do you even know what the word narrative means?

Stupid challenge, not going to win it

Ya, they almost never overturn a NY challenge, either way.  Though I think they did the other night.  Dude needs to be within 3.5Y to get the overturn, or 6.5Y the other way.

Although with the "new wacky command center" this season, who the heck knows what they will do.

Thank god edmontons kicker sucks, missed 2 easy ones

[Jesse]

got away with only 1 point on that interception

Should have scored ourselves though.

[Stats Junkie]

No yards and roughing the passer being the same penalty..... makes no sense.

Here's how I look at it. On a No Yards, the punt return is wiped out and the penalty is applied from spot the ball was fielded at. In 2025, the average return wiped out on a No Yards penalty is 6 yards. That means that teams only net 9 yards on a No Yards penalty.

Roughing the passer can either wipe out the play or be applied as a deadball foul. When the play is wiped out it is either a sack or an incompletion that is wiped out. If applied as a DBF it is because there was a gain of yards on the play. Either way, roughing the passer nets 15 yards or more for the play.

That's what I hate about TSN.... on halftime... why are they replaying the Vernon Adams interview?

[Tecno]

And we lost to Toronto and a really aggressive defensive line. Funny you forget to mention that.

Didn't forget.  Simply irrelevant.  The proposition was that a no-pressure D can't go anywhere.  Getting to the cup with a no pressure D negates that hypothesis.  Getting to the cup is itself a sign of success.

And I never said I didn't agree that no pressure sucks -- just dealing with the argument at hand.

[Tecno]

Funny thing is, that rouge cost me a huge payday on the tie at the half.  I was thrilled the FG was missed, then realized I still lost.  Murphy's law.  Or something.

[Ducky]

Not a very confidence building game...looking at how BC, Calgary and Montreal are playing it seems like the Bombers will be hard pressed to win a playoff game (that is if the Elks dont beat them to the cross-over game).

We were 11-7 last year (1-1 in the playoffs) and we're 8-7 this year

Yay success?

I agree.  However, it's normal for them to spend 1 of the halftime segments talking about the previous (or next) game -- especially on a double header.

What I want to know is why our O let that dude run like 50Y back.  Why weren't the other RECs sprinting over there?  Where's Brady?  Hoggies should be forming a wall and also running down the field.

I don't mind the "INT-punt", but the key is at the other side you need to get the INTer down immediately.  Looked like keystone cops out there and instantly gave them FG range.

Praising God is fine but Vernon's gotta learn how to do an interview, he's been around long enough now .... "MAN"!
