Arceneaux punctuates a great third quarter for B.C. with a deep catch on second and 23. Great coaching, play-calling and execution by the offence.

Well, they've fixed the tackling problem on defense.

THAT'S how you make a tackle!
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Edmonton was the most penalized team in the league heading into tonight's game. They showed why. Must be the Eskimo way

The only three points the Esks have scored so far came way back in the first quarter off a BC turnover on downs in their own territory.

I really enjoyed the game. It was a tough win in serious old testament conditions for most of it. Just keep pluggin' away.

As for Lulay and purrhaps some limitations, well if so he sure makes up in other areas, and the sum = W's. :beauty:
