6 min or so to go and yet another turnover on downs.
The offensive line has not been even average this game, and Kemp in particular has been terrible. He has been beaten multiple times, and for some reason has rarely been given any help. They have to do something about him. The offence once again has lost a game.
I feel badly for the defence which has had to play most of the game and with multiple players obviously banged up.

The trip out west has affected all aspects of the game in my opinion.
Not impressed with the offence, …. Elks D has definitely limited Chads options
The special teams were limited …. Of course our replacement kickers are looking like replacements today ….
The defense did not have an answer for much of the Elks plays. Our D-line was playing well for the most part.
Let’s hope we wasted all our bad decisions and plays this week as next week …the Ticats D will also restrict our offense ….6 turnovers
yikes!
In my opinion, I am not impressed with the coaching …..
let’s hope all the bad omens are done with today ….only can go up from this game.

Can someone please give Dejon Allen a call?? I have zero doubt that he is willing to return to Toronto.

Argos looking to copy Dinwid's Ottawa offence? - short passes, no real ground game; O-line routinely beat (some real bad OT play around the league) ... ?
D looking mostly solid lately still - not their fault this game.
Lidster has to get better - can't keep blowing makeable FGs, or, like with LH this year, time to bring another kicker in.

The defence wasn't bad today, especially given they were on the field all day. You can't turn over the ball 6 times and expect to have any chance. Placekicking is still a concern, too.

Burnip had some amazing punts, but that's about the only positive today.

Not a very good game at all. The game against Hamilton might get embarrassing next week. I feel like we're going to lose to Ottawa the next time we play them.
Lidster was amazing against the Lions but he's had a few misses since then. Very concerning to say the least.
Knew it was going to be a long day when we had the Elks in second and long but somehow Fajardo had a rush for 42 yds.

Call Noel Prefontaine. I bet he has a half season left in him.

FG kicking remains unsteady, O Line not living up to expectations, horrible play call on 3rd & inches, too many fumbles. Just a horrible game all round.

Hopefully the Elks look past the Argos a little bit combined with more discipline play and a win is a very possibility.
It looks like the Argos were looking past the Elks. I'm not sure why. Don't want to beat up on them too bad even though the entire team and coaching staff look like they mailed it in today. This was literally their 8th road game in 9 weeks with 5 separate trips out West in 9 weeks. They had to put up a stinker at some point. Even the game in Calgary they put up over 30 points.
