As an American, I agree. It would be great to see two things in the CFL. One, to see more of the CFL in the states and two, to see more Canadian QBs. Does Canada have a college system of football and how do I find out about it?
@@kevinlittleton2327 yes it has college football. Its called CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sports). CIS football. Its not big as in US but its fun to watch because they have teams from all canadian provinces, including the Atlantic Canada. Plus there is also Canadian Junior Football League. Semi professional league for players who dont make it to CFL. Also fun to watch.
Tiger Cats don't have a record for 20+ straight losses at home. Tiger Cats have the ability to actual PLEASE their fans. The elks won 1 game, not the grey cup. They are still the worst in the league and they are still not clinching playoffs. You won't be talking like this when the elks lose their next game.
having tre ride the bench this long is a fireable offense at this point. Jones should have a LOT of explaining to do as to why he was so reluctant to put the best offensive player he had on the field and kept trotting out sub-par pivots.
Congrats to the Elks for their first win of the season!! See what happens when you make a change at the top? Now let's see if they can keep the win streak alive and win at home against the Redblacks.
@@ReviewyCA Would you also please answer this...Why did the Elks receive both kickoffs? 1st half & 2nd...You can also see it on the CFL webpage the play by play.....I'm so confused right now.
@@southpaw788At the start of the game, the captains of both teams shall meet the Referee at centre field. The Referee shall toss a coin with the visiting team captain making the call. The captain of the team winning the coin toss shall declare whether to have first choice at the start of the first or second half. The captain of team having first choice at the start of the first half shall choose between: kicking off or receiving the kickoff or, which end of the field to defend. The captain of the other team shall have first choice at the start of the second half, when both captains shall again meet the Referee at centre field to make their choices. My guess, having not seen it? Hamilton wins the toss, sees the weather, determines it's more important to pick the end zone than receive the kickoff; Edmonton picks the kickoff to open the second half, so they got both kicks.
@@southpaw788 Same as NCAA or NFHS (at least in 2015 when I last worked a NFHS game): 1st half: team that has choice in first half can kick, receive, defend an end or defer. 2nd half: kick, receive, defend an end. Sometimes that leads to the same team receiving in both first and second half.
What a disater. While Edmonton was going to get a W away at some point, thought Hamilton was in so much trouble they has to pull off a W at home. Well although I have be about 75% in picking winners this year, I was dead wrong with this. Oh well I'll live with it as Hamilton is falling... Ottawa might too (MTL should win) and maybe 4th West still has a chance...
@@brandonmorris92 well despite a 3 loss start, I thought they did once they turned it around despite Bo Mitchell injury. Well atm looks like I was wrong as Ottawa has a better chance with a better team (might beat MTL this week). Maybe a West to East CO could happen, taking Ottawa and Hamtown out.
Finally, a win. Why wasn't Ford the starting QB in game 3 or game 4 this year. Now for the almost impossible. A win next week bsck home against the Redblacks
I hope the Hamtown FG attempt in the 1st Q that hit the post and was a dead ball made this highlights video. Wish it was a Single (EE getting the ball at 50, not 40 though) so Hamilton would start with a 1-0 led. Desbite that, in reality Ham lost by 14. 1 point off to make it 13 means nothing. Only games that end in 5 points or less does it matter to talk about it. My 2 cents. PS: I believe Montreal did it too in their game against Hamtown but like yesterday, Montreal won by so much that 1 more point for them is nothing.
As a fan from south of the border I like the rouge, but I don't think it should be in effect for field goal tries. Something not right about rewarding the kicker for a missed attempt.
Very glad to see the Elks win a game.
October 12th, 2019 🤣 Almost 4 years.....Last home game win they were called the Eskimos
Bring back the Eskimos!
In my mind they are the Eskimos

Great game by Tre Ford. We need more Canadian quarterbacks.

Nice work Elks! From a BC guy
AFT! About Friggin' Time! As a Riders fan, I understand how it feels when your team languishes in the piled-on losses. Let them celebrate!
TSN needs to add the team records at the bottom
Edmonton finally found a team in a bigger mess than they are.
😆
Ouch.

@@Kyle15672 We'll see.
Congratulations Elks!!!
Only in the CFL, a 1-9 team isn't out of the play-off picture yet. 🤗😋
Half way through an 18 game season with 9 teams, they could theoretically still finish .500
That's another reason why I love the CFL.
You can win 8 games and STILL make the playoffs when the other two teams have 1 less win than you.
That makes no sense. In any league you could theoretically lose your first half of games, then win the rest.
And …
@@Northcountry1926 And what? 🙁

He gave Corny that guaranteed contract. Corny stopped running when injured his spleen
@@davidbuswa9425 What a corny excuse 🤪
Finally Elks got their first win. And they still have chances for playoffs, Calgary and Saskatchewan are not so far ahead.
Congrats to the Edmonton Elks on their first win of the season.
This entire W is all because the Elks signed Tommy Dennison as their passing game coordinator. 3-2 passing concept makes the most sense
THE 2023 EDMONTON ELKS ARE YOUR CFL GAME WINNERS!! Order your DVDs to relive the moments!
We are the Champions, my frieeeend.
EE 😊FINIALLY !
Mike.
Finally! Very glad to see the Edmonton win.
Almost knocked out winnipeg.... now they seem to be playing some better football. Nice to see....
LET’S GO!!!!!!
Only four words to describe this:
Its about damn time.
Congrats to the Elks for their first win of the season!! See what happens when you make a change at the top? Now let's see if they can keep the win streak alive and win at home against the Redblacks.
Go Elks! Time to start winning games !
I love the CFL.
Happy for Edmonton,
New Texas CFL lover here with a question. Can someone explain the receivers in motion prior to the snap rule?
In the CFL, pre-snap motion (lateral or forward) is allowed for players who aren't on the line of scrimmage (oversimplified version)

So Hamilton is where Noleggio ended up!
The brett Maher of Canadian football
One drought down, one to go 😏.
Wow, they looked good enough to be Esks again.
Ti-Cats normally eat Elks for dinner so it must have been the Eskimoes that showed up to play that one. ;)
Why did Edmonton receive both Kick-off? 1st half & also 2nd half?
Congrats Elks
Edmonton deserved the win in Hamilton’s yard easily 👏🏻👏🏻
Oski hee hee Oski ha ha!
Cool Canada game
Go Elks go.
HELL YEAH BEST TEAM IN THE LEAGUE 😂
Ohh my God, they finally did it! Lol
Powell seems to have trouble reading defences.
LETS FUCKING GO ELKS

I hate the Elks. But I'm still glad to see them win.
NIAGARA’S OWN TRE FORD OWNS HAMILTON
Finally, a win. Why wasn't Ford the starting QB in game 3 or game 4 this year. Now for the almost impossible. A win next week bsck home against the Redblacks
Eskimos are going to win the cup this year 🤭. There is a reason why the Bombers released Liegghio.
Congrats to Elks!!
ESKIMOS WIN!!!🥳🥳🥳

Great win. Next the RedBlacks, Calgary loses to the Bombers and Argos could make for an interesting Labour Day matchup against the Stamps.
Argos always play against Ticats on Labor Day.
edmonrton is not make it to the grey cup playoffs
CFL IS BETTER THEN NFL
CFL IS BETTER
CFL cameras do a great job not showing the crowds in the stadiums, or lack of a crowd.😏
It was a good crowd before the Thursday lightning delay that lasted 2 hours on a Thursday night.
The Edmonton who ??? Where are the animal rights activists
NFL SUCKS
Lmfao
I want to see the Elks win the Grey Cup without wining a single match at home.
A statistics anomaly the CFL will treasure for decades.
