My 2 cents worth .....
I will not allow myself to be negative about the crowds. It was a feeble turnout on a super evening for football. It's too bad others didn't make it out. I thought the crowd was pretty enthusiastic even though the numbers were low ..... At least in my area there were more cheering than I'm use to . We are not gang green ....c'est la vie .... But we are still proud of the double blue. Just wish we could help more.
The end of the second quarter was the turning point, from which the Argos did not return. The time count violation was most peculiar .... And some of the coaching decisions at this point were also strange ... Were they not close enough to go for the 3 rd down rather than a field goal? ..... Ah yes .... Hindsight. I know points at this stage of the game are important but perhaps going for the 3rd down/touchdown would have given the team a psychological boost.
The Oline was weak tonight..... I was totally jealous of the stamps Oline and the time Bo had to pick and choose his target. We know these guys can do it .... Is The Oline in need of improved coaching?
I would love to review the film .... I'm never good at picking out where our Dline could have got through to the QB without going in slow motion. But I agree with what some said earlier, the line of scrimmage was won by the stamps.
The stats weren't bad for our offense, and if we had converted some of those field goals to major scores , the game would have felt much closer. We were there 6 times ..... So were they.
Saying that, our offense had a number of glitches with everyone shuffling around and filling in .... But that's what our depth is for and it's too bad we had to practise that in a real game scenario.
Well I got a ticket for next weeks game .... Hope to sit in an Argos section. .... Hope the team can rebound again.
