The result was very punishing too, as they drove down and scored a touchdown to earn a total of nine points off the decision. I would have thought the only two possible outcomes were Hamilton starts at their two-yard line, which is where forward progress got to or it was a safety if he was ruled down having gone back in the end zone. What was worse was the timing of a couple of them, including jumping offside on third-and-five as the Ticats were attempting a field goal. Yet the drive breakdown was curiously equal, with three of six in each half earning 27 or more yards and three of six earning seven yards or fewer. It's like the Elks are determined to make it is a difficult as possible. I hope Ford has a long and illustrious career, not just in the CFL but in Edmonton. Congratulations to him on earning his first career win and keeping up with Nathan Rourke’s undefeated starting record this season. Edmonton got an absolute gift from the Ticats, two interceptions deep in Hamilton territory and a fumble return touchdown. He fumbled with safety Scott Hutter on the punch-out while the Elks were blessed with a magical fumble recovery and trot-in touchdown to take their first lead of the game. The problem is Edmonton’s offence only produced a pitiful 5.0 yards per play, notably less than the 5.9, 6.3, and 5.4 marks in their first three games. My next quote: “The bad news is Hamilton has no choice but to throw more than two yards at a time.” It showed well as Hamilton made quick gains of 15, 12, and 18 yards. Their biggest problem, honestly, is not the turnovers that get all the attention — I know the fumble is a special case. That was one of the ugliest victories I’ve seen in a long time.
