Morris can't seem to even break the 1st layer at the line of scrimmage. He seems better as a receiver. Ah well can't be too picky I guess.

Man, that was a pretty weak objectionable conduct call and I'd be pretty mad if that was called against the Stamps.

I don't think BC should have given the safety there - now they have to score 3 times.

Not impressed with Evans going for that low hip check like tackle. I’ve seen him do that in at least 3 games and i’d be angry too when it’s that close to the knees

I'm thinking Jorden should take that Dwayne Johnson jersey to every Stamps game from this point forward.

BLM has passed Warren Moon in passing yards. That’s pretty amazing.

Can't wait until Don Jackson is back, Romar Morris just isn't providing much as a RB.

Could be an O-line problem.

Great stop by the Stamps and a questionable play call by BC.

Nah I think you had a point. Maybe they actually should give Thor a few more reps if Jackson isn't back. Though luckily it's a bye so hopefully Jackson and Williams will be back.

When you have a 7-0 team, it becomes the little details that really grab your eye. I really didn't like how the O-line was working tonight, they just didn't seem to be all that aggressive on the run, and looked like they were on roller skates on pass blocking.


We're going to need to figure out the run game before the weather goes cold. I didn't really think the defense was on top of its game over all, they had great plays sure, but they leaked a little bit tonight.


My one criticism of Claybrooks is that he's not great at making half time adjustments and staying ahead of opposition offensive coaches.

I think there was a drop-off when Roberson went down as Levels got beat a few times otherwise the defense did a pretty good job of keeping the Lions out of the end zone. Lions have some talented receivers and are much more dangerous with Lulay behind center as this one would have been a laugher if Jennings was starting. As for the running game it's hard to say what the problem is when you are down to your 3rd string guy. Morris clearly isn't ready to be 1st or even 2nd string and may never be but run blocking hasn't been very good. Mitchell looks to be moving around the pocket much better which is very encouraging. Jorden cementing himself as one of the league's best receivers.

Lions had a week to prepare for this one coming off the bye week and they played maybe their best game of the season last night so I think it looks good that the Stamps could still handle them despite starting their 3rd string RB and not having Rogers.

Man this team is exceptional. That is just fun to watch.

A few things that concern me:
-I hope the fire of back to back Grey Cup losses outweighs the complacency of dominating everyone all season though.
-Like Cap astutely points out, I hope we can figure out a run game before it gets cold.
-Mitchell getting out of field possession trouble with that bomb is also the type of playing style that can bite you in that ass, as it did at the end of last year's Grey Cup.
-I hate to love Kamar Jorden again
Anyone else annoyed that they have to
