The weather was a factor in this game. Osh said the wind was tricky specifically. Castillo missing is odd but they were attempts that wouldn't be "automatic" for most kickers. I swear a 50 yard attempt for Castillo is viewed like a 40 yarder for most kickers. Just like how Osh would send out Streveler on 3rd and 2 like it was 3rd and 1 and expect a 1st down haha.
Saw some videos of Brady and his girlfriend rescuing dogs before the season. About Castillo, pretty sure the wind was the reason for him to hit upright twice.
Hey, Willie... can you please stop being so big. It's hard to pass over you especially when your hands are up and ready to swat the ball like it's a mosquito. Joking aside Blue Bombers are back to being a force in the west. That 0-4 start fooled everyone it seems. I was thinking that you were done, especially with Zach being so bad, but I was wrong. Zach is doing alright, defense is doing awesome... Grey Cup rematch maybe???
The idea with that late kickoff was to try and score some points (it was an onside kick formation, so the ball was live and if Elks would've recover it, it could've been a TD) because they will play each other next win a point differential might help decide the winner of the regular season series.
And it only took Brady Oliveira to reach 1000 yards rushing to score his first TD of the season. And the fact that Chris Streveler is done for the season as well. Blue Bombers signed Jake Dolegala, btw. Neither he nor Terry Wilson appeared in the game, but with Streveler being done for the season, their game will change. Brady might finally score a few TDs to add to his phenomenal rushing stats. He's the forth Canadian QB to have at least 3 consecutive seasons with 1000+ yards after Normie Kwong in 1955-1958 (the only Canadian RB with 4 consecuttive seasons with 1000+ yards), Jon Cornish in 2012-2014 and Andrew Harris in 2017-2019 (if he would've had 26 more rushing yards in 2016, he would had 5 consecutive season with 1000+ yards because he had 1000+ yards in 2015). And with the win against Elks next week Blue Bombers will clinch playoffs. After 0-4 start and how horrible the team was... not gonna lie, I'm surprised how good they're right now. Zach Collaros is still not doing great, but at least he's not doing awful. 6 game winning streak is helping for sure.
Elks should admit that the decision to start Tre Ford was wrong. MBT was doing so good, I can't understand why they decided to bench him. Ford was bad (Flea Flicker was the only good play from him). The whole team was bad. It's... THE WORST GAME Elks had this season. 6 turnovers... they had 17 turnovers before the game (lowest amount of turnovers in the league) and they had one third of that this game... They should start MBT in the next game. As much as I want Tre Ford to succeed, he needs to learn more, he's still far from being a good starting QB.
off coach was smoking something....there was smoke in the air for a bit during the game.....when they threw on 3rd and 4 thats the play willie j knocked it down
