CFL 2024 Recap: Toronto @ Montreal - Eastern Final

[@elijahmatthews2781]

What a battle. So much excitement in one highlight. I can't wait until I get a chance to go to a game. Thank You CFL 😎

[@cryptohalloffame]

CFL never disappoints, always know a comeback is likely, just always entertaining football

[@thisspacenotforrent]

Great game...those 2 catches by Coxie at the end of the 1st half, along with the fumble recovery were clutch by the Argos!

High drama, turnovers, and for the Alouettes to lose on a pass interference call. What a wild and wooly game that was

[@lawrencejeffrey9245]

Pretty obvious interference call. Even your homer broadcaster Rod "blockhead " Smith got it right. You got lucky last year. Argos had their number this year.

[@swansbear]

Pour nos Alouettes c’était maintenant une saison gaspillée. On avait pour toute l’année la meilleure équipe de la LCF, et on perds dans les séries éliminatoires. Il y avait trop de ballons échappés par notre équipe offensive dans la 2ème mi-temps. Des chances pour marquer toutes ratées. Ça fait très mal. 😢🏈⚜️

It got so every time a Montreal guy was tackled, I expected a fumble. Wasn't wrong too often either. Oh well, there's always last year!

[@CGMedia2023]

Toronto won't lose to Winnipeg with or without Kelly. The "Argo Bounce" is always in play in Bomber/Argo Grey Cup games. Winnipeg is against 2 teams instead of 1, the Argos and the officials. (3 teams if you count the command center which is Ambrosie by proxy and he's always had it in for Winnipeg.) My score prediction: Toronto 20 Winnipeg 6.

[@Swaggapuss]

On the Toronto punt return for the touchdown that was the turning point in the game. I don't know why special teams coaches dont tell players to tackle the punt returner once the ball is bouncing on the field and take the 15 yards penalty. Ive noticed players getting big punt return yardage by letting the ball bounce by letting players setting up a return lanes. Its just something I've noticed over the years

[@MigLap25]

The Bomber are super happy that Montreal gave the game to Toronto now easy Grey Cup win

Funny how people can find every excuse for their team losing. Turnovers are not free. If you carry the ball like a loaf of bread, you may get it stripped. If your receivers can't catch the ball. the other might catch it if it is tipped. Remember last year. You got lucky. Stop whining.

I have NO IDEA how Montreal Alouettes managed to lose this game. Als were not looking good. Like at all. Awful ball security, awful punt that was returned for a TD, even that first interception that become a pick six happened because of awful way to catch the ball by Walter Fletcher. And three times ball was lost in the scoring position by Als. They fumbled so many chances to score points... And to think that Fajardo could've tied the game at 30 if he would've not risk it and throw an interception and instead gave the ball to Cole Spieker who was OPEN in front of the goal line. Kelly getting injured... am I a horrible person for not showing any compassion to what happened to Chad? Like, the guy overstayed his welcome in CFL. CFL couldn't force him to retire from the league, but karma caught him eventually. Screw the guy. I wanted to give him a chance, but it seems that he didn't learn his lesson. Wouldn't be surprised to find out that he did something similar to what happened last year and Toronto Argos front office once again acting like nothing is happening. Good game by Argos. Everything worked, even Nick Arbuckle didn't made the situation worse for Argos when Kelly got injured.

Western Final had just one turnover that wasn't turnover on downs and that was Lucky Whitehead muffing a punt and Roughriders recovering it for new sets of downs. So this game in not representative of how good players really are. It's a playoff game when stakes are high and nerves sometimes took over.
