Who the heck was Burris just throwing to? Nasty stuff. Man, I'm glad we've got KG.

Maybe Hank can atone for that brutal throw.

KG as in Kevin Glenn?

Man Bombers fans overrate that guy. I am happy you guys have him too.

When a team has mental errors like that and continues to flounder with as much talent as the Stamps seem to have, you have to start wondering about coaching. How long until Higgins and crew is under the same fire as Burris? Or, is it a case of players underperforming and/or not as talented as predicted??? Have to see what the second half brings here I guess...

I'm not a big fan of Higgins, but the coaching crops in the CFL are about as dry as the QB crops.

The only way I rate is based on results. And right now, Glenn is WAY better and much more consistent than Burris.

Good lord, timecount violation on a QB sneak from the 1? That's an absolute embarrassment.

These Stamps are really hard to watch, especially when I have to root for them.

Great a FG!

Nice work with the penalty. These mental errors are happening way too often for this team.

There are good coaches in the CFL - there are candidates to replace Higgins if need be (including two on the Stamps staff already). Problem is, too many coaches stay in their positions for too long or are recycled long after the message their trying to send is effective.

I hope the CFL has access to more camera angles because TSN's is about the worst possible for this play.

A turning point though?

Nice drive, but how about giving Reynolds the ball.

Haha. The Stamps are marching the field on unnecessary roughness penalties!
