Shouldn't Moton Hopkins have gotten a penalty for a late hit on Collaros? That seemed obvious to me.

I was just going to say the same thing.

Norwood looks like somewhat of an improvement over Steele.

There should have been an interference call on the Als in the end zone.

Yep, I am still seething over that. The difference in this game at the half is the fumble recovery for a TD and Whyte making his FGs while Prefontaine is missing his. We really are beating ourselves.

There is also a question about the "fumble", as it looked like Chiles forward motion was stopped.

Two obvious penalties not called but this team is still showing squat and giving fans no reason to think that we'll do enough to win. Sad to think that a qb who tossed four picks and looked useless two weeks back now looks better than our second stringer in his second year. Marsh has horseshoes up his butt pulling out that four pick game, last week and what looks like this week. Pre is FINISHED!!!! Coaching staff has not adjusted to losing Ray. O Line is horrible and obvious that Ray makes them look great. Too many changes and injuries. We need a small miracle to pull this out. I don't see another win for a while.

There have certainly been about three odd calls and non-calls that have gone against us today. The Chiles' "fumble", as I mentioned earlier, was quite similar to a play that went Montreal's way in Tuesday's game.

I think Collaros makes to O-line worse than it really is. He holds on to the ball too long.

**ArgoRavi** · 09-08-2013, 02:52 PM

If Barnes had only been able to hang onto that ...

**ArgoRavi** · 09-08-2013, 03:01 PM

What the hell was Prefontaine thinking on that play? Just hang onto the ball and take the freaking tackle. We are just beating ourselves today.

**bluto** · 09-08-2013, 03:03 PM

damn near unwatchable so far.

Ummmmm,......no. It is unwatchable.

The Argos can't let this game get out of hand either as point differential could be a huge factor with this being a four-game series. Right now, Montreal has a one-point lead.

**Wobbler** · 09-08-2013, 03:10 PM

I haven't been fully satisfied with our performance in this game so far.

**ArgoRavi** · 09-08-2013, 03:17 PM

Well that changed quickly. The Argos are finally making some big plays and it is now 23-21. The defence has played much, much better today and the offence has moved the ball better in this third quarter too.

**jerrym** · 09-08-2013, 03:18 PM

I was just going to type that it is unbelievable that the Argos are still in this game after scoring their first TD when Tripp scores on a fumble recovery! I think they should have went for the PAT rather than the two points as there is so much time left.
