Too many obstacles to overcome. Not enough time left on the clock.

And the Eskimos lost the game when they pulled their best player, quarterback Ricky Ray, for two plays from inside 2 1/2 yards.

Tyler Ebell can't seem to catch a break.
Stripped of his running back duties after Week 2 of the season so a healthy Ron McClendon could return to the roster, Ebell is now injured.
In the midst of a great game against the Calgary Stampeders last night, the Edmonton Eskimos rookie sprained his left shoulder.
