The Eskimos are a terrible terrible football team. The Stampeders minus a few miscues are a explosive offensive team, and a ferocious defence to play against.
I wasn't able to watch this game, but was Burris as bad as this PeteLfan guy made him out to be? It just doesn't seem like he could be that bad considering the score.
This team is just plain awesome!! 52-5 win against the Eskies. They totally dominated the game in all facets.
Our defensive group are the best in the league and you can't even pinpoint on one guy in this team. You can't tell the difference when one player is missing because their play is still the same no matter whos' playing. So far this season, I am very impressed with the plays of DL Tom Johnson and Robert McCune. I am not saying Hughes, George, Claybrook, Labinjo or Robede are not playing well but those players that I mentioned their plays lately stand out. Case in point tonight, McCune and Johnson were just dominating the Eskimos OLine and they are all over the field. Newcomer Coey Mace played like a veteran as well. The LB crew of Simpson, Jackson, Raymond were good tonight as well. Even the backup McCarthy played well also with his limited duties. The DBs were just unbeatable with the 3 Brandons(Browner, Smith and Isaac), Milton Collins, Dwight Anderson, Wes Lysack and Eric Fraser.
On offense, we have so much firepowers in receiving: Rambo, Lewis, Bryant, Murphy, Arthur, Forzani, Franklin even Reynolds, Cornish and Cote can be relied on. We also have 2 awesome RB combo with Reynolds and Cornish. Our OLine must be considered one of the best or even the best in the league right now. Of course with all those firepowers, we need a good QB and that's when Burris comes in. I can't see any team who can beat the Stampeders this season except themselves I guess.
Dude when it comes to the Canucks, it could be a team of Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, Augusto Pinochet, Josef Stalin and Kim Jong Il and if one of them scores against the Canucks you take it.
I will be there with my Stamps jersey on. Hopefully I don't get killed, and it will most likely smell like beer from getting a few poured on it. However I expect that the stands and parking lot should be empty by the end of the blowout, so should be pretty uneventful leaving the game
Can't wait to see this team live, they are just awesome to watch!

^That is so true. I was getting mad when couple of Tate drives stalled in the 4th and Maver came on. Anything less than perfection won't be satisfying.
I wonder what they did with those old "City of Champions" signs? Anyone think they're still in a warehouse somewhere, waiting for a decade of high draft picks?
