The Calgary Stampeders were eliminated from the 2021 CFL postseason with a 33-30 loss to the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the West Semi-Final.
The team got off to a poor start this year, compiling a 2-5 record by the midway point of the season. The club bounced back in the second half of their schedule to finish 8-6, though a first-round exit from the playoffs has dampened optimism in Cowtown.
