Oh that sucks. I know it's a tall task in football to have all your starters healthy but it seems with the Stamps they are always missing a key player or two.

Looking forward to being able to just enjoy the game today!

And...no beer guys again tomorrow. Still tech issues. Next Friday for sure we hope!

What kind of tech issues can last a week???? Don't you just need a bunch of refrigerators to cool cans of beer, and some guys willing to haul them up and down the steps??

I assume it's because they are cashless now and their pos machines aren't working.

Winnipeg is going to run away with the West if they stay healthy/ and Collaros stays healthy. So good up front on both sides of the ball.

The Edmontons look like a pee wee football team against the Als.

Amazing with that offense they have managed only 5 FG's in 6 quarters of football.

Maybe they shouldn't have bought machines that are a POS.

Remember when Hamilton was picked by the pundits to win it all? They may be the worst team after week 2. Lotsnof football left but yuck...

Anybody have the Riders at 2-0 and Hamilton @ 0-2 at this point in the season? I certainly didn't.

Montreal looked really good yesterday so it's fair to say the Riders, Bombers and Als look in mid-season form while the rest of the league looks all sorts of terrible. Ti-Cats are a mess on offense. The Lions are not good with a banged up Reilly. Eskimos may be the worst team in the league and I'm not sure how that is possible with the talent on their offense. Stampeders are right behind them as Bo has been bad and only Ottawa has less talent on the roster. I'm sure by the end of the season things will be a little different but I would imagine the top 2 spots in the west have been determined early and Montreal has a good shot at being atop the eastern standings as they look good and are well coached.

Has there ever been a season where the Albertan teams are both 0-2 to start after playing all home games? I doubt it.

There's a good chance the Stamps start 0-3 at home. Als looked really good against the Eskimos and are a level above the Argos and Lions.

Calgary has lost two home games to teams that are really bad. Neither BC not the Argos are any threat this year, and the Stamps looked awful against both of them.

Stamps offence sucks, their D is pretty bad and their special teams are meh.

Could be the worst stamps team in a long time. Bo looks done. He can’t throw accurately over 5 yards, consistently makes poor reads, and chokes in the red zone.

Team might not win 3 games this year.

Could be? It is clearly the worst team since the Dunnigan season. Talent just isn't there but coaching is a lot better and I expect DD will bring this team around at some point. I said before the season this looked like a team of transition and it is exactly that. The talent is not there but hopefully by the end of the season some of these young players show potential so next season they can get back on track. The bigger issue is Mitchell. The team can't afford to pay such a large portion of their salary cap for a QB that's performing this poorly and they need to get to the bottom of his struggles as if he's still not healthy they maybe need to start thinking of a succession plan at the position.
