    Re: 4th year in 4th Place.

    Yes, this is not considered a successful season IMO...but that being said, props to them to coming out in a must-win game and flat out dominating every phase.

      At this point?

      Absolutely not.

      If they get it together and play to their ability and end up where they should be in Calgary in a few weeks?

      Absolutely yes.

      We just tore away BC's destiny. Huge props to every player on the roster.

        If they did make it all the way to the Grey Cup, it is interesting that they would have to beat BC, Calgary, Saskatchewan all in three weeks and all on the road...

          We won 3 straight on the road before the '05 GC game, did we not?

              Nope, we got our asses handed to us in Calgary on the final day of the 2005 regular season.

                This year has been a cluster****.

                That said, they pulled off #1.

                They pull off #2, and #3, and I have zero vitriol left towards this team, as they will have fought for every inch.

                  Re: 4th year in 4th Place.

                  I didn't watch the game tonight....but I did check the score, and was pleasantly surprised.

                  Now if they can duplicate it 3 more times, I'll be a little more sold on the team.

                  Whatever happens next, 1 thing is for sure: DM still has to go. I'm tired of 3rd and 4th place finishes to the season. This season was too close for comfort.

                    A real team wins the championship in the preseason like the Wheaties and the Canucks....

                      Well, this game was a good step in the right direction. It is possible to be a team that gets hot at the right time once in awhile (see: Saskatchewan Roughriders, circa 2007) but not really set the league on fire.

                      It is also possible this team could go right back to being the DM inspired vanilla-offence type team after 1 or 2 good games - we've seen that script play out many times over the last 4 years.

                      I'll be completely on board with this team once they show some consistent results.

                        They still need to grow together, but they have now finally shown that they can beat any team in the league (because they actually have now).
                        The great teams peak at the right time...

                        In the CFL, there is no better time to peak than November...
