Third Down Gamble

The biggest game of the year.

Grey Cup 110: Montreal 28 Winnipeg 24.  A game for the ages... this game showcased the greatness of CFL football.  Montreal defies the odds with a never-back-down attitude, Cover '0', a right or wrong call by Winnipeg's Defensive Coordinator Richie Hall on Tyson Philpots game-winning touchdown in the waning seconds.  Second Down: Montreal QB Cody Fajardo's big second half, Austin Mack's unbelievable catch.  Third Down: Where do the Blue Bombers go from here?

On paper.

Are the Blue Bombers a dynasty? Are the Elks for sale?  Second Down: Alouettes pull off major upset in the East Final while Blue Bombers' defense dominates in the West Final.  We learn that Toronto QB Chad Kelly was concussed maybe as early as the first quarter versus Montreal.  Third Down: Grey Cup 110 in Hamilton, the Blue Bombers are favoured by more than a touchdown, can the Alouettes defense score and Montreal upset Winnipeg? (recorded November 15, 2023).

Lay claim to that.

Is Bo Levi Mitchell done in Hamilton?  Is Chris Edwards done in Hamilton?  Khari Jones is done in Ottawa.  Second Down: Alouettes and Lions prevail, 2022 repeats.  Third Down: Is an upset possible in either Divisional Final? (recorded November 8, 2023)

Make the catches when it matters.

MOP finalists announced. Alouettes do it again. Second Down: Alouettes - Tiger-Cats prep for thier rematch, Argos make it to 16 wins.  Third Down: It's CFL Playoff time! Semi-Final Saturday: Montreal vs Hamilton, BC vs Calgary (recorded November 1, 2023)

There for a reason.

Roughriders do not renew contract of Head Coach Craig Dickenson but do extend contract of General Manager Jeremy O'Day.  A one-division CFL?  Second Down: Stampeders lockup a playoff spot with an impressive win in BC along with a nailbiting loss to Toronto by the Roughriders.  Third Down: hard to gauge the final weekend with all playoff races over (recorded October 24, 2023).
