Can Edmonton finally win at home?
Arbuckle revenge game?

Hahahahahaha
So true
I need Cornelius to throw for 200 yds, 1 TD to Walker, no INTs and to rush for 50 yards.
This is my only hope to make up fantasy ground this week after my disastrous picks of Oliveira, Schoen and the Bomber D.
Say what you like about fantasy, it gives me a reason to watch games like this....
Incredible catch by Lawler...he is so good.
Imagine having Proulx be two inches from your face shouting at you...gotta have coffee breath...
On 3rd and 5...litre looking more like 500ml
Arbs the Bomb to Behar
Then Lewis ward muffs the PAT
man I wish Arbys was still around...I could destroy a beef sandwich with horsey sauce and curly fries
RBs second sucks on the deep shots.
Lapo time count AGAIN brutal!
Arbuckle looks like a gimp out there with his dumb head and arm bands. lol
I think suitor says the same god dam things every broadcast!
Edm receivers other than Lawler stink. like really stink.
EEs getting creamed by Lapo! :D
Time to burn the City of Champions sign :D
Ugly *** football to end the half. My word!
Bad teams gonna be bad...can be entertaining when both stink
I never get why teams go to three man pressure, it just gives good recievers like Lawler time to get open

true dat!
Both teams are terribly coached teams. Fundamental break downs galore on both sides.
Lawler putting on a show tonight. Good for him!! Too bad the rest of the roster stinks!!
Lawler is just a phenom.
Lawler is crazy good. Hutter the hitter. Dammit I have money in Edmonton. At least I got Cornelius and Lawler in fantasy.
Looks like LaPo finally found his new Matt Nichols to run his dink and dunk offence, Arbuckle looks to be a good fit.

just think Edmonton first wanted Duke Williams, then went after Lawler when sask signed duke. Funny how things work out
Ottawa facing a 3rd and 2 and is short a guy on the field.
These teams are so bad.
I hope Edmonton comes back and wins
Ottawa better hope that Lapo's conservative play calling doesnt cost them
That Acklin noncatch reminds me of the Duke Williams catch in the west semifinal last year which wasn't overturned

Lapo should have challenged for a face mask or PI on that one. Clearly edmonton guy grabbed it
Lawler is hurt
Another loss for a once storied franchise...in front of about 1000 fans
How is it Litre is in the CFL?? The dude is a sloth and has hands of stone. So many dropped check downs , reminds me of Shaun millington his hands are so bad. Thing is he doesn?t get any yards when he does hang onto the ball. Edmonton has zero running game they need to find a decent running back, it?s not like there aren?t a million of them out there!?!

13 straight home losses, been over 1000 days/3 years since they won at home and they wonder why they aren?t drawing fans?!?

this^ poorly coached! Lapo and company should be ashamed despite the win.

Lapo's last stand?
He isn't going anywhere, they will keep him for at least this year

I agree
Wow.....Edmonton really can't get much worse losing to last place RBs at home.....again! Lawler was the only bright spot on a truly dismal team. He made 3 incredible diving catches for 146 yards total!

And then he got hurt and couldn't finish the game. Without Lawler there O is terrible.

Edm receivers other than Lawler stink. like really stink.
Loxley needs to go back to QBing. Many weeks in a row he just drops everything his way. He is a horrific receiver with horrible hands. Just awful. Make him the #3 QB and he can run sneaks, though he was horrible at that last week too.
Walker is worse than useless. Washed up. How can he be best WR in league a few years ago and be dirt now? Just horrific. I hope they don't pay him much. Hands almost as bad as Loxley. Let SSK hire him... they like washed up ex-NFL-peekers. To think we all wanted to pay him $200k to come here a while back. All our current WR are better than him.
The 2 new guys get a break, they did ok for first outing. I would have put the Voort guy in a bit, as he's shown flashes.
Lawler is worth every penny. He's the only thing keeping EDM O in games. And so much for the vaunted EDM / C.Jones D: a complete shambles, getting run, passed and bombed on.

The last circus catch he came down funny on his foot planted and bent forward. Doubt it's super long lasting. I think he played some snaps right after that. Looked very po-faced on the sidelines later, though. Must have puffed up like a balloon.

500ml (tm) was very good in CGY because CGY identified what he was: a ball-handoff tailback. I can't even remember CGY passing to 500ml, though I'm sure they did a couple of times. If you use him as a strict rusher and blocker he's not bad. OTT did the ol' Lapo thing of shutting down the run as priority #1, that's why 500ml was so ineffective at rushing tonight.
EDM needs a speed back in addition. Doesn't EDM have Wilder on IR? They are really missing him. Not sure if he's season-ended though.
Oh ya, 500ml is NAT, so that's something. EDM wants all those IMPs at WR.
Oh ya
a. Very entertaining game had all of us EDM pickems-ers on the edge of our seat... OTT winning blew my pickems streak points, argh.
b. Taylor Corny is very good... if his non-Lawler receivers had actually made easy catches half the time they dropped them, EDM likely wins easily. He was badly let down by drops. That EDM team has no focus. Bad coaching.
c. As an EDM fan in the stands, how are you not freaking out? The only game they could easily win this year at home and they blow it. Shameful. Don't those players care? I'd have said this was the must-win of all must-wins.

Locksley
Good to see Ottawa get a win .
A lot of passion in this thread for a "nothing" game. As of now we have a 2 team league and the other 7 are all over the map, sometimes looking good but also a lot of mistakes and sloppy football. BC can still make it interesting if they get healthy at QB in time.

Wilder has been on IR for most of the season. He is done for the year and possibly beyond. Serious back injury with surgery needed. Something to do with the spine, so that's not a good sign for a football player.
Unfortunate but I hope he can lead a normal life if he can't return to football.

He's a Canadian FB that doesn't have much history of doing more than blocking. I wonder why the Elks haven't added an import RB to their roster? Most of their older import receivers are not really producing. Lawler is having a very good year on a very bad team but he got injured in the game.
Another 5 or 6 player roster shuffle for this game. Next week all bets are off. Playing for 2023 at this point.

My lawyers will be in touch over the use of 500ml without proper acknowledgment of said nickname usage...
Ottawa only points out of 2nd place.

True enough but it's hard to predict the east with so many bad teams. They have the longest uphill battle at the moment. I will be cheering for them over the other teams though.
Hamilton better hope shiltz can play next week. Evans kept throwing to the wrong jerseys

Litre is the prototypical fullback- big solid dude who can block. No speed, zero hands, so why on earth are you trying to make him the next Andrew Harris. I actually feel sorry for the guy. He?s a passing down blocker, nothing more nothing less. He is not a running back
