"From start to finish we didn't play as well as we're capable of playing, and after a while we sucked out there," said Eskimos head coach Richie Hall.
"That's not us. We got our butts kicked."
You can steal away the best of the Saskatchewan Rough Rider defensive players, lure away the coach, stick them all in Edmonton Eskimos sweaters, but you know what, there not the same Saskatchewan Rough Riders.
Edmonton Eskimos defense, built mainly from free agent Saskatchewan Rough Riders, a gift trade - Kitwana Jones for well nothing, and the Riders defensive coach, promoted to head coach, was supposed to be their strong point.
Someone forgot to tell the Montreal Alouettes.
Montreal 50 Edmonton 16
"What happens against good teams is if you don't take care of business early, it comes back to haunt you," Hall said. "That's what happened. We hung in there, we thought we were good at halftime, then we had some chances to do some things and we didn't."
Fact of the matter is Ritchie, you didn't look that good against Winnipeg either with a 19 - 17 win that the Bombers could of won.
31 Montreal points in the fourth quarter makes you wonder were the Eskimos awake, did they quit? What the hell happened here?
Back to the drawing board and Good Mourning Edmonton.
