Good perseverance and nice 4th quarter comeback, but too little too late.

Babysteps; we will come together. We were our worst enemy and could have won that.

At least they draw well on the road

Another heartbreaker.

Penalties at crucial times

Penalties and Brett Boyko being a turnstile for most of the game didn't help.

He needs to sit and it's time to start looking at playing an American at his position.

Are these the attendance numbers from before or after the thunderstorm?

Was at the game. Looked like a decent crowd on the West side but the East looked spare. Although maybe being in the blistering sun may have been a factor too.

The Elks continue to shoot themselves in the foot. Two chances on the goal line they blow and that dropped catch late in the game in the end zone to go up...just can't seem to make the plays when they need to.

Our next few games don't look like wins so we need to figure it out...and fast.

Yikes. Elks have the second worst winning percentage since 2020 of all football teams in North America. And I have no idea who the one team below them is. Half decade of darkness.

A once proud franchise...

Hard to see the decline after so much success.

Things ebb and flow, but time to flow, please.

Despite all the negativity towards the Elks over the last several seasons, they still know how to put together a great entertainment product. The losing sucks, but the atmosphere around the entire game is still great. I took my 7 year old daughter on Saturday and she absolutely loved it, lightning delay and all. It’s too bad the team isn’t winning more, because I’d love to see the stadium full again.

Playoffs still possible, but I hope they use the rest of the season to continue to develop Tre Ford. I still think there is a special player there.

Good to hear.

I've found the in-game is ok, but certainly room for improvement and the real issue is simply too large a stadium with too few people. There is very little energy or atmosphere and that is honestly what is bothering me most when I go.

Something's been bugging me about the Elks' decision-making.

The team were winners when Hugh Campbell was at the helm. Earlier this year, the Elks could have hired his son Rick to be their head coach but he was passed over in favor of Mark Kilam, thus Rick became the head coach in Ottawa.

Could this be a lost opportunity? This, in a town rife with lost opportunities?

Rick is the current ST coordinator in Ottawa and he has been the HC in Ottawa in the past.

Not totally sold on him as a HC in the CFL. I'm willing to see what Kilam can do if given time to mold the team into his vision.

Not a firm believer in "Woke'ism," but oh man - all it took was "ONE" person's vision of "being Woke" and this franchise has gone to shit and a hand basket, yet the Stampeders to the South get to play on with an exponentially offensive symbolism of their "Name and Logo," an Indian Marauding Cowboy......go figure.....
