October 14, 2013: Toronto Argonauts vs. Hamilton Tiger-Cats

[Will]

Argos D not looking good so far. Penalties galore.

Argos D not looking good so far. Penalties galore.

Mistakes galore. They must be imitating the Winnipeg-Montreal game.

[Will]

Terrible game for the Argos. Hamilton has the answer for everything and we cannot get anything done on either side of the ball. Barnes fumble, a safety through the endzone and we cannot kick a FG.

[jerrym]

Barnes fumble after 37 yard gain. Even when the Argos do something right they get it wrong.

[Will]

Horrible offensive line play.

[Will]

The complete loss of discipline on this team the last two weeks has been astounding. The Ticats once again look extremely prepared today and the Argos don't like they even practiced.

Cue the Pinball pep talk this week.

[Nob]

This may very well be the worst half of football the Argos have played. Just awful.

Can't stand watching this garbage. How can they not be ready to play, week after week after week.....?? They can't always expect to come back in the second half, especially this late in the season.

Have to think that the Cats are the team to beat in the East. The Argos aren't doing anything offensively, and haven't stopped Burris this year.

[Will]

A TD and hopefully some momentum.

[jerrym]

Ray to Watt - TD! I'm glad - otherwise, I might not have been able to keep my Thanksgiving dinner down after this comedy of errors in the first half.

[ArgoGabe22]

Well that INT sure woke me up.

[OV Argo]

BAD game by the Argos so far; but the Ticats ain't much IMO; 2nd half comeback win coming up; and even if not - the Argos, at full force (Watkins, Kackert, etc.) will slaughter the Ticats if they face them in the play-offs - book it, you heard it here.

[Nob]

Wow..... Is this ever pathetic.

Don't care what you say about who is in and who isn't in the lineup, this team is awful right now. The Cats are having their way this week again.

No offence, plus another unexplainable slow start, combined with not being able to stop them, and then add in some bad penalties means another loss.

This ain't good, people.......

[jerrym]

After driving the ball down to the Ticat 10 yard line, the Argos can't even line up properly twice in a row to go for a TD. Pathetic.

[Stevoman]

Well they made it interesting but first place will have to wait and the TiCats are getting more confident each week. Here's hoping that Hamilton has peaked and that the Argos starters improve as Ray/Owens get back in the groove and we get Watkins back.

[OV Argo]

Well - worst game of the season by the Argo, BUT - they were still driving for the winning TD late in the game till Ray threw his first pick of the season.

Argos need to settle down and adjust in some areas: O-Line needs to tighten up (Holmes - a raw rookie at guard looked lost at times); establish more run game; and on D - not near enough pass rush pressure (English is not cutting it at DE - looks rookie lost out there too - put McCune at DE and Pottinger at MLB = way more CFL experience), plus getting Watkins, Black and Horton back on D will make a way better unit than we saw today.

Looking forward to a potential Argo/Pussycats East final (Als are brutal); and i say again - Argos will smoke the Pussycats in that game; way more talent, + Austin is a clueless dink of a HC IMO.

That Cable kid is a good runner, Jones has to put a "spy" on him in the playoffs to take away those long drives that kept Ricky Ray on the bench. But you have to give Hamilton credit. They are starting to look like a Kent Austin team.

What Nob said in his last two posts.
Frankly I never thought I'd ever catch myself saying this but I'm becoming less of a fan. I realize injuries happen but I CAN NOT keep up with who is playing on D this year. What the hell is with Watkins? This is pro football. He doesn't come to camp and now is suspended for family reasons or something. Just tell the fans what the hell is up. Too many changes week to week and the team is just not prepared to play. How are we in first place?
The D looked like lost puppies and Hamilton has our number. If not for a Gable drop late in that first game we would have lost that to Hamilton as well.
I just knew we'd lose when I heard about Watkins, Mobley, Chiles and Kackert yesterday.
We never do anything the easy way. Seriously might be time to miss games and enjoy the beautiful Kawarthas.

[Will]

Fine move back to BC while you are at it.

[Will]

I didn't see the need for Ray to thro go deep on 3rd down. The worst thing might have been Owens' catch that was reviewed. Gave Ticats D a breather so they could make the final plays.

If I had any teeth I'd get some corn on the cob to celebrate.
