Blue Bombers 2022 Season Thread - Stunning Loss. Dynasty Interrupted. 2023 awaits.

And didn't they use a timeout in the 1st quarter? I thought you got one timeout per half, and you couldn't challenge if you burnt a TO? Or is that old rules?

I believe its just straight 2 timeouts now.

Another 2 & out. Calgary receivers letting BLM down big time.

Calgary is winning the special teams and the reffing battle, that’s it, but it’s been enough so far

 

[roccerfeller]

Grinding game between two very good teams

Going to come down to the small plays. Hopefully we can outlast them and eke out the win with the home field advantage

 

[None]

Going to come down to the small plays.

You did this.

 

[roccerfeller]

No Holding call?

 

[snowkiddin]

Another thing to remember is this is a mostly healthy Calgary squad and we’re missing four or five big guys

 

[roccerfeller]

You did this.

Haha

They're gonna get a FG only

 

[FonRiesen]

Augustine's motor is running

 

[roccerfeller]

Very late hit on Legghio

 

[None]

I know there was talk that Ellingson was more of a Darvin Adams replacement but honestly he's more than replaced Adams. He's completely replaced Lawler's production.

 

[roccerfeller]

Stamps have been reading well. Credit where it's due.

F yeah TD baby

 

[snowkiddin]

Haha

Dear Mr./Mrs./Ms./Mx. Time Traveler, what are we getting for Dubois?

He's fantastic. Definitely exceeded my expectations, I knew he was a great player for the Elks and he's played well against us in the past, but still exceeded my expectations

Mr dependable

 

[FonRiesen]

We'll take it. About time we got the call

 

[roccerfeller]

Dear Mr./Mrs./Ms./Mx. Time Traveler, what are we getting for Dubois?

My psychic abilities are confined to that single post I'm afraid

 

[rkp]

my god this one announcer has been so biased towards the stamps!!..thank god for dunigan to provide balance!!

 

[None]

Offense has a solid drive and now the defense can't get a stop.

what were those play calls on 2nd and 3rd downs?

Passing play 2nd and goal and then a shotgun snap on 3rd?

 

[roccerfeller]

I'm in the Augustine > Oliveira camp for sure. He's just missing that speed for me

 

[snowkiddin]

Hoping we can march the ball here

 

[FonRiesen]

Beauty stop on the 2 yard line. Terrible playcalling by Calgary... We haven't been stopping the run.

And getting that 1st down at the end of the quarter is HUGE - what a QB

 

[None]

Blatant illegal block on the sideline.

 

[roccerfeller]

That's coming back

 

[snowkiddin]

Lol, showboating into the end zone on a holding call

 

[None]

I feel like Rasheed Bailey is going to be on the outside looking in when Demski gets back if he doesn't start making some plays. Those play action sweeps that they have drawn up for him could just be split between McRae, Demski, and Grant. Not even sure you can make the argument he blocks all that well.

Pretty crazy that we have the Canadian depth that we can potentially replace an int like that.

As I post this he makes a play on that sweep

Edit: Ellingson is so f***ing good.
Edit2: Oliveira is so f***ing meh.
Edit3: Oliveira makes up for it with a catch on the next play but man, our run game...
