That's a strange box score. Bombers score 34 points in a game where their QB completed 7 passes for 89 yards. 251 yards total offence, compared to 489 for Edmonton. Similar to their first meeting where Eskimos dominated statistically, but Bombers had scoreboard.

Pick 6 kind of skews things and settling for 6 FG's inside the 30 yard line. Teams will give up 300+ yard passing games every day as long as they are keeping the opposition out of the end zone. If anyone has followed Trevor Harris over the years they would know that he's the master of moving the ball between the 20 yard lines and falling short. He's started two more games than Arbuckle and thrown for a lot more yards, attempted 150 more passes, but has only thrown 3 more TD passes than a guy that hadn't started a game since 2015 prior to this season. He's also benefited from being sacked only 3 times prior to last night which was record pace for fewest sacks. This is why he's not elite and has never been.

Davis in Ottawa has to be one of the worst QBs I've ever seen. Just 2 atrocious picks in Sask.

They'd be better off putting Joe Paopao under centre.

Davis has a hat trick of INT's.

3 drives, 3 interceptions. Maybe I get on in Ottawa, I can't throw it far enough to get intercepted so that would never happen.

Lol what’s the point of ever punching another guy wearing a helmet? Do you insist on breaking your hand?

Don’t sell yourself short. A five-yard pass can be picked.

In the old days, he could have said all my passes were caught by Rough Riders (or Roughriders)

Man even with the offensive line troubles Mike Reilly just doesn't look like the same guy in this offense. He even looks slow scrambling in the pocket where in years past he would scramble out of trouble for positive gains routinely.

Former Stampeder Tunde Adeleke almost killed Duron Carter on that pass over the middle.

Weird how the Ti-Cats are 8-2 this season. I can't remember a season where top to bottom the league was this mediocre.

Why does Rod Black keep calling that play a triple reverse?!? It was a reverse with a pitch back to the QB who threw a strike for a TD.

Rod Black has never met a sound byte that may get him on Sportscentre, he doesn’t like, even if it makes no sense.

Yeah that’s a double reverse at best or a reverse with a lateral.
