Coaches find loopholes to CFL challenge rules
If there’s a rule, someone will find a way to bend or break it. The same seems to be true for the CFL challenge rules and video review.
Fans who watched the Riders game against Calgary on July 22 saw how the Stampeders were able to draw pass interference penalties against the Roughriders through challenges over and over again.
After looking back at the tape earlier this week, head coach Chris Jones said he saw it was no accident.
“They’ve got a lot of double moves built into their offence and with the rules setup like they are, their receivers are looking for contact coming out of the double move, so that they can go and get the review,” Jones said Tuesday.
