Should be a good test tonight. The Argos may be 7 - 8 but they have a solid defence.
With Willis it has got to be an injury. I've been saying this for awhile but he's done nothing in the last several games. He's hardly ever making a play now. Not sure whats up as he was gold earlier in the season. Its been like night and day.Willis and Mitchell scratched while Bowman and Chick are in.
I guess being a hungry old vet supersedes helping the team win.
a challenge on principle.Bad challenge, but it's good to know the league still cant get calls right even with the challenge
Considering the esks got one for swatting the helmet just like thatI mean the challenge itself was worth it IMO because a 1st and goal from the 12 with 14 seconds gives you 2 chances to get a quick strike TD
I don't understand that with the standard that has been called for the last few years, how was that not roughing the passer.
The guys in the video booth are worse than the guys on the field. I seriously wonder if they’re knocking a few back while they watch the game.Bad challenge, but it's good to know the league still cant get calls right even with the challenge
I thought the clock doesnt start until the player catches the ball.Argos get benefit of roughing the passer call early in the game on the faintest of touches to the helmet. Reilly gets slammed in the helmet and no call and we lose a challenge on it. Go figure.
In addition Argos fumble a ball, no prob, even though its called a fumble on the field they over rule it even though the evidence was not clear enough to change the call on the field, argos ball.
Then, and this just had me screaming, 7secs left on the clock, we punt the ball, the clock doesn't start moving until 3 secs AFTER the punt and the runner still is up with 1 sec left on the clock and the clock inexplicably stops at 1 sec. Thus allowing the Argos one hail mary pass to see if they could gifted points on a PI call. Which the officials cheerfully oblige. **** this ****. I know its the Argos, I know its CFL officiating trying to help the Argos.
The Eskimos probably win but I can't even watch this anymore.

Yeah, on a kickoff the clock starts when the receiving team fields the ball.I thought the clock doesnt start until the player catches the ball.
But why did the clock stop at 1 sec with the play still going? The clock stopped before the play was over. Watch it again. Inexplicably, the clock stops at 1 sec, just because. That was a slow moving return and the Eskimos even seemed intent on the clock elapsing. They got jobbed on that. Soon as I saw that I said right away the Argos get an automatic PI on the next play. Would bet a thousand bucks on it.Yeah, on a kickoff the clock starts when the receiving team fields the ball.

Unfortunately, I’m flipping back and forth with the baseball game so I can’t check it. I assume you’re right because this is the CFL.But why did the clock stop at 1 sec with the play still going?

Just angry at a series of calls is probably it. That and we get jobbed by officiating almost every week.I think you're reading into it way too much.
So the officials told the edmonton DB to interfere with the receiver?
