biggest question is can the Elks, without Jones, pull off another exciting last second loss.

Dru throwing ducks

Dru is prone to dumb mistakes when he's under pressure. He needs to either run downfield himself or take a page from Matt Nichols' book. I have him in fantasy and every pick costs me 2!!!

2Q3:30 that was no yards on EDM again, LOL, uncalled. Granted, this time it was 4Y out, not 3Y. Still...

they might as well, Ottawa used up their challenge

Pete · July 20, 2024, 12:14:48 AM

for some reason its a common occurance in Ottawa (streakers)

Pete · July 20, 2024, 12:16:59 AM

That was a blatant hit to the head from purifoy. It's like he lowered his head to hit the receiver in the head. That was totally avoidable to as the receiver was down. They have to hit clowns harder for doing crap like that.

He's off tonight, 2 picks, he's killing you on fantasy!!

The Acklin toe catch was a) amazing and b) actually a catch. I did the computer tricks and the tip of his toe was still in bounds. Stunning and amazing, maybe the catch of the week, even though it wasn't big yards.

I see defenders on both these teams hitting a lot harder than what we see from the Bombers.

ie, I don't think the Bombers do much hard hitting on D.

am I missing something?

EDM getting pressure consistently with 4, and OTT isn't adjusting (yet). Need to buy Dru a bit more time. And find the weak spot to attack. So far what I'm seeing is a wide open flat. Put in some crossers or FB/RB sneak-outs for the dump & YAC.

And bring in a 6th OL sometimes, like WPG does.

With Pimpleton emerging as a threat, OTT's WR corps is actually incredibly strong on paper. Only that rookie NAT (Mardner) is weak (so far). But if Dru doesn't have time or is uncomfortable, he's going to make mistakes. So give him some protection.

P.S. The problems/pressure seem to be coming from OTT's NAT RT.
