1992 CFL
1992 in the CFL was another competitive season, as only two teams had losing records. At the same time, it was not a great year for team defense, as the lowest scoring team averaged 26.1 points per game. However, with that many good offenses, it gave more teams a shot at the 80th Grey Cup championship. The Calgary Stampeders (13-5-0) would easily win the Western Divsion by a comfortable 3 games over the second place Edmonton Eskimos (10-8-0). In the Eastern Division, it was a different story. The Winnipeg Blue Bomgers (11-7-0) would have a much tougher time taking the division by a tie-breaker over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (11-7-0). The top three teams in each division would qualify for the playoffs. In the first round of the playoffs, it was the Hamilton Tiger-Cats edging the Ottawa Rough Riders 29-28, while the Edmonton Eskimos would do the same over the Saskatchewan Roughriders 22-20. In the Division Finals, it was Winnipeg blowing out Hamilton 59-11, while Calgary would squeeze by Edmonton 23-22, setting up the match-up for the 80th Grey Cup Championship. The 80th Grey Cup was the 1992 Canadian Football League championship game played between the Calgary Stampeders and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on November 29, 1992 at Toronto's SkyDome. The Stampeders had little trouble defeating the Blue Bombers, 24–10. The Calgary Stampeders made back-to-back trips to the Grey Cup, this time with another quarterback at the helm. Doug Flutie, the two-time
CFL Most Outstanding Player, added a Grey Cup title to his legacy, leading the Stampeders to their 1992 Grey Cup championship. The Stampeders jumped out to a 24-0 lead before the Winnipeg Blue Bombers were able to put points on the scoreboard. Flutie got the Stampeders within scoring range on four of Calgary's first five offensive possessions. Flutie hit Derrick Crawford on the game's opening play for a 39-yard completion to set up Mark McLoughlin's 37-yard field goal to open the scoring. Flutie and Crawford hooked up again on Calgary's next series, this time for a 41-yard gain, but McLoughlin missed on a 50-yard field goal attempt good for a single point. Crawford, who was the fourth-leading receiver on the club during the regular season, ended the game with 162 yards to lead all receivers. Near the end of the first quarter, Dave Sapunjis reeled in a 35-yard touchdown pass from Flutie, and the rout was on. McLoughlin added a pair of 17-yard field goals in the second quarter, as the Stampeders held a 17-0 lead at halftime. Following an uneventful third quarter, Flutie
threw for his second touchdown of the game, connecting with Allen Pitts on a 15-yard play. Winnipeg quarterback Matt Dunigan's string of sub-par Grey Cups continued, as he was limited to just 47 passing yards. He was replaced by Danny McManus in the final quarter. McManus was able to ignite the Winnipeg offense, but by then it was too late. Troy Westwood kicked a 46-yard field goal to put the Blue Bombers on the scoreboard, and McManus hit Gerald Alphin on a 27-yard touchdown pass to complete the scoring. McManus was 7 of 18 passing for 155 yards.
