HAMILTON — The Edmonton Elks went to the locker room winning by 12 points for the second consecutive week as they led 21-9. This time, not even a two-hour weather delay was going to stop them from getting their first win of the season, a 24-10 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Tim Hortons Field on Thursday.
Former Cat Steven Dunbar star of the game steals the show. Who lets this guy, Dunbar go? Dunbar and White were the glue of last season’s offence in Hamilton. Powell would have won this game with Dunbar( still in the hammer) and White catching touchdowns in my alternate football viewer.
Congratulations to the Elks - they played well enough to win. However, my Cats are a different story. This had to be one of the worst games I have seen in my 75 years of watching them - from missed field goals, dropped balls, poor tackling and all around poor play by the O-Line and defence - it couldn’t have been worse.
If Steinhauer and the coaching staff are concerned they should be - they have to know that the Hamilton fans will not tolerate this kind of performance for long - the organization has a responsibility to field the best team they can - and this ain’t even close!
‘Edmonton wins’ are two words I haven’t seen together for a while. I ran that combo on Google and all I saw was page after page of ‘Oiler’ results. It could be that the Elks will break the internet tonight.
Congrats! 
Good evening fellow CFL fans! I just want to say congratulations to the Edmonton elks. They finally pulled it off now let’s see if they can go to number two. It’s good for the league!
And good for the bowels. Being constipated for nearly two years can put a real strain on the old plumbing.
Marc Liegghio needs to practice like a madman for the upcoming game. Leaving 11 points on the field that could have made it a one-score game is not the way to extend your pro career.
If it had been a Global rather than a Canadian putting in a performance like that you know certain posters on this forum would have gone into meltdown.
Hamilton this is your Grey Cup contending team changes need to be made from top to bottom
After that last missed FG, you could just see the players deflate.
They dominated the 3rd Q, but came away with no points, and Leggs was a big part of that.
I was worried that we made the wrong choice after Leggs was like 14/14 earlier, but I have to now agree with Jon, it was a no brainer to let him go.
They are having a meltdown on the Hamilton forums.
let’s see, 8 games left, Hamilton, Ottawa, Saskatchewan and Calgary stink, 6 teams make the playoffs…
Oh yea, we are melting down all right. It seems like we are living in Murphy’s Law land. No consistency in any aspect of the game. It doesn’t matter how many quarters or halfs they dominate if you can’t score any points. aaaahhhhhhh!!!
Saskatchewan is dead in the water while Calgary has no offense to speak of, plus Edmonton’s schedule includes several games against both of those teams… so whoa Nelly the Elks have a shot.
Just keep Chris Jones from ‘going for it’ on 3rd and 5 when there’s no urgency to do so and you’ll be able to put those paper-bag-of-shame head hiders away for a while.
It would blow my mind to see them sneak into the playoffs…but you’re right,it’s still doable. 
Hey PorkyPine… you’re sporting antlers this morning. Is this a sign of Elk Pride or are you just horn… ee?
We’ll go with the Elk pride😇 That’s my story & I’m sticking to it.
Legs left 9 points on the table (8 if you include the Rouge) while a brain fart on special teams wiped out a punt return TD. Those are the kind of nagging details that kill the Cats every week. Throw in an offensive line that’s always been a team weakness AND expect your surprisingly efficient raw rookie QB to perform miracles while running for his life… is a sign that management has no clue as to how to build an offense.
It’s can understand your frustration. I’m frustrated just typing this reply to your post. 
A contest between clearly the two worse teams of the league. Like last week Edmonton was interesting in the first half but flat in the second. Any other team would have eaten them alive.
Edmonton’s not the worst team anymore. IMHO that title now belongs to Saskatchewan until they dig up a better QB than Dolegala. They’ve been savaged by injuries.
Dunbar Jr , Ungerer III, Mauldin IV, Howsare, Acklin, Masoli, Brooks, Santos Knox…who let them go? Ask the GM Triumvirate here in Hamilton. Curly,Larry and Moe.
