I’m now questioning whether the Edmonton Elks will ever win in Edmonton again. Losing 18 straight home games since the 2019 season is absolutely insane. I’m a BC Lions fan but I want to see the Edmonton Elks win at least 1 home game this season. The Elks have never won a home game, since the last time Edmonton won a game in Edmonton they were called the Eskimos.
I thought I heard the "official" crowd was 33,000. Did that sound plausible? Last year there were multiple games where the team announced highly dubious figures.
TSN - The production values of your broadcasts from Commonwealth Stadium are a cut above all others... The use of the overhead camera - the shots into the stands (that never look empty thanks to that unique paint scheme on the seats...). Very cool to watch.
@@lebruce5906 good eye he stutter stepped drawing the off side good eye man I did not even notice it. I hate to get called out on anything CFL as I love and have been watching this great game all my life and know it well. kudos
No 60fps? It seems games out East are better with smoother framerate whereas games out west dont have that. Just my take. Maybe we're dealing with different TSN channels that encode their broadcasts differently.
at the 8min. 10sec mark it looks to me like Saskatchewan was off side how Edmonton didn't challenge is beyond me. I am an Argos fan so it doesn't matter to me just what it looks like to me. other than that great job holding the line. go Argos go and looking for good things from Chad Kelly in the double blue.
@@sidstrummer5380 I’m with you, I believe that was a challenge. Win or lose the challenge, they down late in 4th. Player moved during the motion before snap. Idk if another angle would show different
Edmonton had a chance...Their offensive line gave up near the end, And the offensive line gave up right away on the last push of kai Locksley...I think if they put Cornelius in there instead Since he is a bigger body. They may have got the touchdown to win the game on that push.
Boy.. as a Rider fan.. it sure is nice to see Chris Jones on the OTHER side of the field... Looks like Edmonton is getting the "special treatment" he gave the riders a few years back... lol
The Edmonton Eskimos where a iconic brand. Political correctness wokeness pressure made them dissolved the name. Edmonton Elks is a stupid name. The curse of the Elk will continue for the foreseeable future
Chris Jones should be ashamed. Puts together a team that looks pretty limp, but also blew his challenge WAY too early on a pretty stupid play. If he saved it, might have been able to turn that goal line stand into a TD.
There's a reason we got rid of him here in Saskatchewan. He was only good when he surrounded himself with the right people and players because on his own he's a mess.
@TheUnknownDungeon he left, you didn't cut him. He rebuilt your team over his tenure and made the riders respectable then left for the NFL just like many players.
Ok...1st and goal on the goaline, you have a 20 yard deep endzone, go for it on all three downs and you don't throw once? What is this? A Greg Roman offense? Use the leather helmet era goal post to pick a defender off your receiver or something...CFL smh.
Who ever decided to run the same play at the goaline three times in a row for Edmonton should be fired...at least use a different formation to spread the D out alil! ffs
BTW Mates in Week 1 Good: Technically I got all 4 games correct for 4-0 Bad: Unfortunately, I didn't call or see much of BC/Calgary. I would have called it for BC for my father (his team) and because BC beat them in last year playoffs (went for CGY then and got disappointed) but it's likely not to be. Solution: I'll just take 3-1 instead. I can live with that as I'm still top, not tied or lose. Also I'd say it is my Game of the Week as well. It's hard to care too much in Week 1 as it's a pre season like feel. Week 2 is maybe in being pre but I'll do my best (seems easy to pick then as well). Week 3 seems to be when regular season starts imho and week 4 is worth celebrating Canada Day so I promote it as best as I can. No disrespect mates but I don't like Week 21. Wish instead it be 3 pre, 20 reg, and 3ish playoffs. The frist pre season week would/could be done in neutral Canada and maybe North/West USA locations. All Star could be too but it's been done and didn't work as a game so got dropped. Anyway, my 2 cents mates Cheers from Australia :)
@@rickykozak58 Thank you sir. To be fair, it's my opinion than how it should be. Like I have many ideas, like rule changes, that aren't going to happen no matter what. It is what it is. They do have a reason why it is now 21 weeks instead of 20 but I don't agree mate ok? Lastly, although Australian, I have been a Canadian Football Fan for over 20 years :) Discovered it in 2001, saw the Grey Cup then, rest is history so there you go :)
@@lebruce5906 Winnipeg :) Wish they were Manitoba Wings instead but it's my opinion. Not going to have it stop me and my support as I still have reasons to do so (like colours are like Alaska flag. Alaska should be a Canadian Province not a US State).
Yet mates I prefer to support the league over teams and especially players. Sorry players don't get my interest much. At least not like teams. But the league is the most to get attention, it needs my support. Heck it's the most underrated professional league/sport in the world eh?
Great game. That defensive goal line stand is why they are called Roughriders!

Some are starting to call it the name change curse.
@@darby_dz It is a curse. Everyone was fine when they were called the eskimos, It was just 2021 woke keyboard warriors...
Their quarterback is so bad did you not notice yesterday they ain’t winning nothing guy can’t even throw to a open receiver without missing
It’s just a bad case of shitty team
Well the Elks existed in the 1920s so I mean I guess technically they have. They had a cool logo too.
God bless 🙏 ✝️ who's coming to the next Edmonton game
NO 60FPS! Seems like the CFL is having an issue with that this year.
OOOOHH WHAT a Game !
GO RIDERS!!!!!
More Dalke highlights had two more hits and a int.
Great Job riders!! Take it week by week and we will be ok 👍
#GoRidersGo!!
@5:10 - Hmmm, looks like a lot of fans disguised as empty seats!

Go Riders!
Elks need a complete top to bottom cleansing.
Without the fluke TD that game isn't close. Great defensive effort by the Riders.
True but I swear the riders were off side at the 8min 10 to 11 sec mark of the video.
@@sidstrummer5380i think it’s procedure, number 7 moved
@@lebruce5906 good eye he stutter stepped drawing the off side good eye man I did not even notice it. I hate to get called out on anything CFL as I love and have been watching this great game all my life and know it well. kudos

Best play of Week 1 :)
102 yards... Wow!

I wonder if there is a difference in quality from TSN direct vs the CFL+ streaming platform.
From a distance it looks like the Packers versus the Jets.
God bless 🙏 change and repent in Jesus name 🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️😮
On the field, the Jets are as reliable as the Riders.
You never know how these things are going to play out

This is gonna be a long yr again I see.
7:34
So there is only 3 downs?? Nice, more pressure. How do you score when you miss? Or the other team score for that matter

I hope the fans boycott the team in retaliation to the imposed political correctness.
That guy was offside by a country mile for Sask! Like what?
Schadenfreude.
Elks played pretty good at times, but if you can't keep your QB standing it will not end well.

Question for native Canadians. What’s the order In terms of popularity with the sports? I’d assume 1. Hockey 2. Basketball 3 Football 4. Baseball
To each their own. Football first for me, the rest a distant second
Unless ur in TO that ratings apply
Most of the country it's hockey and football, but yeah, in Toronto, it would be that order.
@@darby_dz idk, I think Toronto rates the Jay's higher than the argos
Lacrosse
I wish all but misery for the Edmonton Wokeimos Go RIDERS!!!
Chris Jones lost again. Yesss!!!!
Qb throws a 102 yard td Announcer says " 92 yards "
Chris Jones should be ashamed. Puts together a team that looks pretty limp, but also blew his challenge WAY too early on a pretty stupid play. If he saved it, might have been able to turn that goal line stand into a TD.

@@TheUnknownDungeon He bailed on us. He signed an extension with us and then bolted to the NFL with Cleveland.

Watching paint dry is more exciting that NFL. PATHETIC.

Back to back to back QB sneak ? Fire the O c now ....get a clue ,you have a 20 yard end zone ...what is this ?
This league is so underrated. NFL is overrated. So is the Xfl The Usfl is a good underrated league.
Nah NFL Is Underrated,.XFL was Underrated but now seem boring but I got to watch it more, USFL is boring imo! CFL is underrated imo
Xfl is a gimmick. It’s overrated. Quit man. There are meds available for the condition you suffer from.
