Wow, that's surprising. He was playing reasonably well on a defence that I feel like has been under performing as a whole. Cutting him just before the contract is guaranteed, though totally legal and part of the game, is a little slimy.

Best of luck Keon! I would be surprised if no one brought him in for a look

Love Raymond but he lost a step and was getting burned in coverage.

Looks like Jim Morris really likes the Stamps. He predicts two wins this week!

That successful challenge by BC is the reason I'm almost through with the CFL. You shouldn't be able to challenge chincy stuff like that. It's a physical game, he didn't target the head. His hand brushed his helmet when he was trying to make the tackle. What a joke, you could challenge that every play.

I have no vested interest in either team and that call made me turn the channel.

Came here to say much the same thing. Challenging for roughing the passer is assinine. The QB already has the most rule protection for contact as it is. Leave challenges for completions or not, in bounds or not and pass interference (but only after DPI has been called by the refs on the field) Lose the rest of the crap.

I'm also not sure what the hell the panel is doing this year. If I wanted to Laugh, I'd watch a comedy channel, and their attempts aren't even funny. A couple of days ago they were pretending to be race walking around the set. My wife walks in the room , " why are they doing this #### on a football broadcast, it's not even remotely funny".

Ottawa defense can't tackle. It's up to Harris and offense now.

I don't think there is anything wrong with Ottawa offense whoever is quarterbacking. This team's problem is their secondary. They cannot stop the opponent's receivers. Bad tackling and bad coverage especially close to the end of the game.

Good game. Unlike a lot of the snoozers this year with ticky-tack fouls and all the challenges. Amazing what happens when you don't have that stuff you usually get good ball games.

These colours clash. Both teams have blue shoulders and blue socks. QB cant see
