Elks fail at the basics. Let the ball bounce into the end-zone instead of catching it at the ten.
When you see a circus catch maybe the ground helped. OT is still possible.

I disagree. Always catch it at the ten, don't give up the single - points are precious, and anyone's O can drive down the field in the CFL. Their problem on that 'drive' was the egregious offside that pushed them back 5, then it got too tight.
Bombers showed that I am wrong. I guess the key is to catch it at the ten and go to the twenty and then down field. Elks catch it at the ten and then lose 5 yards on a penalty.

Our offense looks a bit better now - run finally going. Gotta say, I really missed Lawler.

Oliveira dragging half the Elks with him on that last run 
Great drive, excellent playcalling, execution.

Their D bit HARD. All set up by finally getting Oliveira going earlier in the drive. This is the kind of offense I expect from a championship calibre team, let's keep it up.

Does anyone actually cheer for a Chris Jones' team? I hope they get the record for consecutive losses under his tenure (he's locked in for 5 years, right?)

And now the D has Cornelius' number with a 3 man rush.
And the INT... Sweet! Good job Houston, knew exactly what was coming. Stat padding... Technically better to take it on their 11 yard line with a knockdown.

We didn’t show up for the first 40ish min. of the game but finally looked pretty good during the last third of the game. Build on that?

Buck remembered that a good mix of pass and run can help your O line that has struggled, first half was terrible 4th quarter was Bomber football, looks like Roadhouse got hurt tonight.

CANADA. True North Strong and FREE
It was an ugly win, but a win none the less. Not a super great outing from either O or D, IMO. I'll have more later.

They just want the Bombers to lose.
That Glass of Pork Soda guy that I mentioned earlier wanted Lawler banned for life “to set an example” and not at all because he’s salty that the Bombers have been the class of the league for a while now.
Doesn’t help that r/CFL is mostly Suckskatchewan fans.
I also just finished reading some moron over there unironically argue that Chad Kelly has Doug Flutie-potential. Sigh. I wish I could find a better CFL discussion forum.
Not a masterpiece tonight, hard to learn much from playing Edmonton.
However Lawler is a big plus and the whole team improved as the game continued.
Aug 3 a huge test.
