I love seeing the Eskimos lose and I get it the officials didn't want to spoil Thanksgiving day for Saskatchewan and may even feared for the safety of the field officials but that should have been calls a penalty.

100x this. The loss helped the Bombers but it was a terrible call. The booth basically said it's cool for a defender to use their weight to crush a QB after a high hit. The defender made no effort to avoid it whatsoever. I'm shocked Reilly isn't hurt.
