2014 CFL Regular Season Thread

EEEEEEEEEEE...yikes!

[Barbecue]

wow, they were sure lazy in the creative department for the Eskimos outfit

[SuperMatt18]

Lol those are terrible

[old-fart]

Stamps ones are good, so are the Tabbies... Lions are pretty good (even though the came out last year). TO looks decent too even though it is baby blue.

Sask and the 'Peg are terrible... although for the flatlanders they think they are super de duper fantastic because... you know... they are green and stuff.

Rest, including Esks are meh...

I don't mind the Eskimos signature uni and helmet. Simple and not too busy. Here's my ranking on the signature uniform.

1. Calgary Stampeders in uniform and also helmet
2. Hamilton Tigercats
3. Montreal Alouettes
4. BC Lions
5. Edmonton Eskimos
6. Ottawa RedBlacks
7. Toronto Argonauts
8. Saskatchewan Roughriders
9 Winnipeg Blue Bombers

What are the difference between the Top 3 teams in my book and the last 2? Top 3 was simple and not too busy. Last 2, way too busy with freaking unnecessary plaids, images and camouflage. Toronto was simple too but way too simple and color sucks. Ottawa uniform is actually not bad, it's the helmet that ruined it for me.

Former Tiger-Cats WR/KR Chris Williams has been cut by the Chicago Bears. Is a return the #CFL in the offing?

I hear Ottawa has loads of cash to shell out to receivers

There was some animosity in Hamilton when he left so I have the feeling that if he goes back to CFL, Hamilton is the last place he wants to go back to. I guess you are right Ottawa will go after him. The question is, is Williams wants to play with a losing team? Toronto might go after him. I just hope he doesn't sign in the West unless with the Stamps.

CFL saved the worst for last. Terrible.

What's the random striping on the helmets?

I don't like any of the ones with the big logos, they all look like Walmart-esque tshirt designs, but the Argos have baby blue, Winnipeg tries with the shoulders (matching the helmet), and Ottawa's logo doesn't have a history and being round it looks ok, so they don't look that far out of place...but Esks take it to another level of blandness/crappiness.

It is, thus, a fitting "Signature" for that team and that city.

[dash_pinched]

This is a dog of a game between the Lions and REDBLACKS...

[M*A*S*H 4077]

You have to feel sorry for the Ottawa defence. They're playing a heck of a game and their offence has been unable to do anything up to this point

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Just what this game needed, a lightning delay!

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Lulay down and looks like he has hurt his shoulder again. Wonder if his career is in jeopardy?

“@CFLDaily: Lowest scoring #CFL game since August 23, 1979 when Calgary beat Saskatchewan 6-5. #CFL”

[OzSome]

I feel for Burris playing with bunch of inconsistent receivers. They are error-prone groups who practically taking turns on dropping the balls on a bad time. They are also take a lot of dumb and bad untimely penalties. They have been competing especially defensively at home but just can't score. RB Devon Walker who are usually the best player in most game fumbled the ball close to their goal line. They could have been ahead of that time but of course someone has to make the mistakes. Ottawa really need a veteran receiver who they can count on to settle the other receivers down and hopefully consistently.

[transplant99]

7-5???

Really?


Maybe the worst season in decades.....so far.

[Pizza]

agreed with everyone who feels sorry for Burris...
and Ottawa fans too

how do you continue cheering for a team this bad? they were just a yard away from a TD too

[getbak]

Ottawa at least has the excuse of being an expansion team. They'll get some goodwill from their fans for a couple of seasons just for that.

As bad as they've been, in their final 8 games, they play two against Montreal and two against Hamilton, so they could still make the playoffs if they can pull things together.

[OzSome]

Montreal's signature uniform is actually not bad. Too bad their play does not match their uniform. Their offense can't move the ball and their defense are getting manhandled by Collaros and the gang. It is 21-7 for Hamilton after the first half.

[OzSome]

Big comeback by the Als in the 2nd half. They scored a defensive TD, offensive TD and special team TD. Then their defense was on fire sacking Collaros a few times and Hamilton went 2 and 0 series a few times especially in the 4th quarter. OchoCinco actually caught more yardages in this game with 78 yards compared to his whole season's yardage before this game. Over 8 minutes left in the game with Als leading 31-24.

[OzSome]

WTF is that call Tom Higgins? 3rd and less than a yard. Tanner Marsh was behind the centre then moved to a shotgun position, back behind the centre and they ended up with the time count violation. They are trying to draw Hamilton offside but it didn't work. Still don't understand it.. watching too much of Chris Jones' playcalling there Higgins?
