Watch the entire league.
The Stamps, in many games, have simply dominated their opponents. The have an O line that basically isn't being breached at all.
They have the best QB.
They have a great D.

Watch games not involving the Stamps and often they are games of mistakes, lack of discipline, and generally poor play.

Nice throw by Mitchell and even great catch by Lamar Durant.

So what? Last year that wasn't the case. Calgary Ottawa and Edmonton were all very good teams. Further, it's a 9 team league. This is what parity looks like. The Stamps this year are playing the part of the Patriots, and the rest of the league doesn't have an answer. But the rest of the league is very competitive against each other, and that would garner praise it was the NFL.

Well part of these larger problems with the league is because of the schedule there is high probability each year that one of the best teams doesn't win.

This is a key moment for the league. Interest is waning. The quality of play is falling.

If fans and the league aren't going to recognize this - the entire thing could fall apart.

I for one hope this isn't the last time we see the Bombers at McMahon Stadium this season.

My god. Bad teams will kill this league? No. Ticky tack bull#### like that taking points off the board will.'

edit: at least the Bombers got it back. God what a ridiculous call.

another good return by Finch.

Looks like McDaniel got hurt earlier. Then on his play on the 2nd half, he just made a great catch. Wow!

Too bad that catch didn't stand, great effort though. And it's a challenge party now.

Seriously??? incomplete pass??? What the heck are those guys in Toronto smoking? That was a catch.

Now Calgary is challenging a PI on Daniels. Yep Bombers defense is holding Daniels.

I don't disagree there. I think this is also a major problem with the league right now.

Jordan, that's a 3rd easy catch that you dropped so far. Need to concentrate on the ball buddy.
