as a Brazilian fan of gridiron football I had never even heard of the CFL until I visited Canada a few years back and it absolutely blew me away. it was everything I wish the NFL were, with fast-paced games and players checking their egos at the locker room to deliver a truly collective spectacle. only downside to me is poor game attendance. incomprehensible and unforgivable for such a legend of a league
Thanks for enjoying our game. As for attendance last night was a Thursday night game in a province where fans drive several hours for a game. We have a five hour trip each way so if we want to see a Thursday game we have to take 2 days off work.
Attendance depends on the province and the city. Toronto doesn't give two fs about CFL unfortunately. Saskatchean is fine, Winnipeg is great, Hamilton is fine, Ottawa is great, Montreal is great. Calgary is okay, Edmonton not doing good but that is expected, the team is not doing good and people are not interested in them, BC is doing okay.
@teo_heel as an argos fan myself, unfortunately the city as a whole doesn't bother with the game anymore which hurts but the fans who do go I'd say are as hard-core as any in the league. The games saw growing up in the 80s were great but for me moving into the dome killed a lot of interest in the city. I hated games there. They should be playing outdoors in all weather. The move to bmo field was so amazing. Playoff games in the snow by the lake are so great I'm always after everyone to go. They don't know what they're missing.
Most of the boys are American too. Canada doesn’t have enough sports colleges as the state s. In past many come from states to play CFL to get experience hopefully go to NFL. But I think USFLand XFL are hurting the league, a lot of players going there.
The riders defence will be given a lot of credit which is deserved but without Patterson pulling through in his first start it would've been a different story. Great win against a tough team boys.
@@teo_heel I don't believe so. The CFL will keep the kickoff because it is one of the few sporting moment that make it's game exciting like a the Queen's Plate, Kentucky Derby, a NHL Game 7 OT goal, a walk off homer in Baseball. The NFL killed off kickoffs making their game boring
Entertaining game! The difference came down to turnovers: the many committed by Toronto and the clean game performed by Saskatchewan. Lots of great individual efforts tonight.
I was really happy with the lack of penalties. But I saw some holding the officials missed by both teams, or maybe the officials are just letting some of the small stuff go so the game keeps flowing? Either way it looked about equal for each team so I’m OK with it.
The Rider D forced a couple of turnovers and the others were a combination of good defensive playing and being in the right place at the right time. It wasn’t all Toronto…
Argos got 20 to Montreal's 30. It's certainly gonna be a fun match-up in week 8. I'm looking at a 09/10 rematch now. The Riders look good, but the Als have just dominated. Only 1 of the 4 games had less than a 10 point difference in score (23-20 @ Elks, Week 2). Bombers: Bombed Argos: Shipwrecked RedBlacks: 30-1 Als @ Halftime
As a rider fan im optimistic, the defense has been really good but you can't expect 4-5 turnovers a game. Eventually that will stop so we'll see if they start winning games without depending on that and i'll feel even better
So happy for the Riders, Shea finally shook the cobwebs off in the second and moved the team. They're not perfect, but a fun, aggressive and scrappy young team. After last night, Duke's is going to see the ghosts of Hazzard coming, Doh !
What a defensive show by Riders. Poor Dukes... 4 INTs, 0 TDs. Shea Patterson looked more than fine. And Janarion Grant once again scored a TD on a punt return against Riders, but this time it wasn't enough for his team to win. Riders for the first time since 2013 are starting with 4 wins. Will they end it with a Grey Cup like they did in 2013? Who knows, it's still early in the season.
He is good but did your team get rid of him? There is a lot of politics behind the scenes that we never see so it might not be that simple. Either way let’s just be glad that he is playing here in Canada entertaining us.
Watched this live too many ppl making excuses for the Argos not enough credit given to the rough rider's defense they also had a backup Qb playing too.
18 points off of turnovers. Some of those were poor offensive plays by Toronto that the Riders D took advantage of but 2 were strictly strong defensive plays that earned them the ball. Way to go Riders. Your D kept Toronto from scoring and helped set Patterson up for a big win.
This was a game between a team going backwards fast and the other team going forward with purpose…Sask. became winners the moment they rid themselves of Craig Dickenson, and this is coming from a Stamps fan…
@@teo_heelI agree , and it’s no worse than all the returns that we’re called back so far this year by ALL the teams , these refs are terribly inconsistent!
@@wintertime331 it's okay... those penalties are on "referee discretion". There're no 100% subjective definitions on what is holding and what is not holding.
Game started at 7pm local time on a Thursday night. I think there would be better attendance if it was a Friday night, or Saturday game. Ticket prices aren't terrible in most sections. A lot of people like to mingle in Pil Country or the 620 CKRM Lounge.
Dukes has some potential. But, he can't through the long ball. We saw that far, far too many times this game. Dru Brees is another prime example of this, and he eventually became a superbowl winner.
He was a young 4-5 games under his belt , he will get better with time. He scramble wells knows the offence just has to make better decisions throwing.❤️🏈
That looked like men against kids; if SASK could play special teams better they'd have won by 20+. I'd be shocked if TOR won more than 6 games this season -- depending how many games they play against the Elk, of course.
The tsn camera crew needs to stop zooming in on every play as it goes on. It’s a bit sickening to see so many flashes and colours go by so fast and we can’t even see plays developing
How tf are we supposed to see anything then? What if there’s like a 70 yard deep shot? We wouldn’t be able to see anything? Maybe you should just stop watching if a little camera movement bothers you that much
Dukes is why Agros suck right now he is a terrible QB he always throws it where every single QB is taught not to do at all he thinks he's brady but he is Shea Patterson
@@yxmichaelxyyxmichaelxy3074 Interception by Deontai Williams is clearly him stealing the ball from Damonte Coxie who was trying to catch the pass. Pick six by Marcus Sayles - pass flew through the hands of Damonte Coxie. Coxie is responsible for two interceptions. And he knew that, after the second interception caused by him not catching the ball he was visibly disappointed in his game. Yes, first Rolan Milligan interception is mostly on Dukes, Milligan red the passing route and easily cut the route. Second one... yeah, Dukes also didn't do well. 2 out 4, my bad.
Young Argo quarterback must be colour blind. Keeps throwing the ball to the guys in the green jump suits. Argos couldn't beat Sask even with their second string QB. You will never mistake Dukes for Chad Kelly. Don't care much for Dimwit the coach either. Offensive genius? Yeah. Sure.
Dear CFL, please stop allowing teams to change Uniforms so bloody often. This is ridiculous. I demand everyone return to their 2000 uniforms and stay that way.

@@maryannemelenka9250about half the teams roster can be “international” mainly get Americans though
Thanks for posting this recap. CFL is the best football in North America.
An entertaining game, thanks for the highlights CFL, go CFL go.
I’m really impressed with The Riders! Great team effort 😁
Way to pull together, Saskatchewan! Congrats to Patterson on his first win as a starter.
D was brilliant! Let's go Riders!
The riders defence will be given a lot of credit which is deserved but without Patterson pulling through in his first start it would've been a different story. Great win against a tough team boys.
Vintage uniforms too. Felt like George Reed, Bobbi Thompson, Ted Dushinski and Allan Ford out there
BEST UNIFORMS
I like that the CFL still has a real kickoff.
It seems that it might be gone...
@@teo_heel are they also talking about changing the kickoff?
@@Jefff72 from what I heard, yes. They decided to wait and see for this season.
@@teo_heel I don't believe so. The CFL will keep the kickoff because it is one of the few sporting moment that make it's game exciting like a the Queen's Plate, Kentucky Derby, a NHL Game 7 OT goal, a walk off homer in Baseball. The NFL killed off kickoffs making their game boring
@@davidbuswa9425 you know that CFL is working with NFL and what NFL decides almost surely will be in CFL?
But I agree, CFL should not do so.
I figured they were toast without Harris, but Patterson proved me wrong. Great stuff!

Good for the riders, as Toronto gave away the win with all those interceptions. Riders have great fans.
The Rider D forced a couple of turnovers and the others were a combination of good defensive playing and being in the right place at the right time. It wasn’t all Toronto…
Thank you CFL!
As a fan of the CFL currently trapped in the US, I find nothing more patriotic than watching Canadian football highlights.
Playoff games in recent seasons have been really exciting.
Feel sorry for you that you are trapped in the USA. Personally I haven't traveled there since 2016 for obvious reasons.
Oh yeah. Nothing better than watching Americans play in our league more often than we play in theirs.
@@CanadianPhinsFan853 It's not the players, it's the game.
Alouettes-Roughriders gonna be the game to watch
No Harris no problem! Dare I say our defense is better than Montreal? Week 8 is gonna be LIT
Argos got 20 to Montreal's 30. It's certainly gonna be a fun match-up in week 8. I'm looking at a 09/10 rematch now. The Riders look good, but the Als have just dominated. Only 1 of the 4 games had less than a 10 point difference in score (23-20 @ Elks, Week 2). Bombers: Bombed
Argos: Shipwrecked
RedBlacks: 30-1 Als @ Halftime
@@jecrex8349 Redblacks looked okay in the 2nd half... but yeah, they were completely destroyed by Als in the 1st half.
As a fan of the Canadian Football League (CFL), watching football gives me special enjoyment.
Great game!!
Nice editing job 👍 I like these highlights
Yo I'm an American but the CFL is fire. We get football in the summer!
Maybe the Riders are for real this year.
More like "real" lucky. LOL!

If they beat the alouettes then they'll be a scary team, and I say this as a roughrider fan in sk
As a riders fan you should know they do this every year than slowly deplete lol. But good to see them pull off the wins.
@@ericscott8568maybe this year will be different? We have a different coach and a lot of different players.
So happy for the Riders, Shea finally shook the cobwebs off in the second and moved the team. They're not perfect, but a fun, aggressive and scrappy young team. After last night, Duke's is going to see the ghosts of Hazzard coming, Doh !

NFL: 'Alright boys, we have 4 tries to get that first down!'
CFL: '4 attempts?' 😂😂😂😂
The thing is... originally all gridiron games had 3 downs... but Americans decided that they couldn't do much with 3 downs.
Damn, as a Winnipegger I don't know why we got rid of Grant.
No idea.
As a rider fan I wonder the same ! He’s the best returner in the league !
He is good but did your team get rid of him? There is a lot of politics behind the scenes that we never see so it might not be that simple. Either way let’s just be glad that he is playing here in Canada entertaining us.
@@TimDyck I guess that his contract ended and Winnipeg didn't renew it.
What a game. I almost got banned for life from Mosaic because I took my shirt off and slugged a beer out if my boot in Pil Country
lololol the world needs footage of this legend
Argos had the game if it wasn't for the INT. Kelly is the real QB for the Argos. Kudos to Saskatchewan for starting 4-0.
Kelly is... not a good person first of all. He might never come back to CFL.
Watched this live too many ppl making excuses for the Argos not enough credit given to the rough rider's defense they also had a backup Qb playing too.
Loved the camera Angle on Alfords missed field goal attempt return!!

Thank you for uploading this game. Much appreciated!!
I’m just happy to watch CFL. Let’s win the grey cup Toronto.
Roughriders Are Good
Patterson showing great promise with his play in the last two minutes.
This was a game between a team going backwards fast and the other team going forward with purpose…Sask. became winners the moment they rid themselves of Craig Dickenson, and this is coming from a Stamps fan…
Great game,
In Texas, we are Rider Nation!
duke probably thinking "so this is what its like to be in a stadium with fans"
Duke was probably thinking "I got this" after winning a few games
Toronto SUCKS at making good attendance.
@@teo_heelthey gravitate towards losing teams.
@@Dani-sm8jp it's more that CFL is too little for "World Class City". But it's the other way around. Toronto is too small for CFL.
Riders old-school uni's are beautiful.
Multipurpose fields are so 70/80s for such a beautiful venue the Riders have!
I mean... most American/Canadian venues have multipurpose fields.
@@teo_heel Not so much in the US. The days of the baseball/football stadium are pretty much gone.

@@teo_heel Not American. MLS have their own stadiums.
Best non NFL league. Tremendous quality!
Praying Dukes bounces back
Dukes bounced alright.
The interseptions killed the argunouts 😢
Another great game! 4 INTs costly for the Argos, still early though
Amazing that punt return td stood with the obvious holding front and center of the camera.
Don't see an obvious holding. It was a block, Jonathan Edouard let go of the block on Nelson Lokombo when Grant passed them. Clear block in my book.
There definitely was holding , just like on every return , these refs suck with their inconsistency !
@@wintertime331 Don't see a holding. Like at all.

Can't wait for July 25th at Molson Stadium.
Riders are 4-0, Als are 4-0, 09/10 rematch?
Als vs. Stamps on Saturday, can they go 5-0
How can u win throwing 4 Interceptions in a game?
🏈
Bloody hell! What is going on with the punt returners???
Nothing in particular.
Winnipeg wants Grant and Bailey back!
But Toronto won't give them back.
Sask has a good team this year... that place should be full for every home game or are ticket prices that outrageous?
Game started at 7pm local time on a Thursday night. I think there would be better attendance if it was a Friday night, or Saturday game. Ticket prices aren't terrible in most sections. A lot of people like to mingle in Pil Country or the 620 CKRM Lounge.
As an Argos fan I would be pissed because not only Cam Dukes cost you the game but you lost to a qb who could be the next Tom Brady. And that’s SP5.
0:50 holy hair extensions Batman, there he does.
Love Riders but many things fell into place in this game. We want to 3-3 during this strwtch without the starter. Patterson is an average backup.
Patterson is fine. Not bad, not great. It's all about the team, will they help him? They did help him tonight.
Dukes has some potential. But, he can't through the long ball. We saw that far, far too many times this game. Dru Brees is another prime example of this, and he eventually became a superbowl winner.

It's better than the No Fun League.
Cool
How come no mason fine ? He not goot ?
Tell me you don’t watch football without telling me you don’t watch football 😂😂 Fine hasn’t been on the roster in like a month and a half
Toronto QB should be wearing green.
Here come the rubes

4 interceptions ? The Argos killed themselves. Duke's inexperience came through but he will learn.
The secondary was awful as well
Love canadian football however receivers should have to get both feet inbounds.
I'm fine with just one foot inbounds, it makes sense.
@@teo_heel I guess with 3downs instead of 4 anyways I love the CFL.
@@jakelong1205 3 downs are also better. If forces to do bigger plays.
Two picks and 2 more picks and the game was over.
