If your options were steamed hot dogs and smoked meat then I'm not surprised that the birds circulate.

Hopefully Gabriel's injury won't cost him any games because that be very costly to an Argo defence that is starting to jell.

A running game becomes key when the weather and wind patterns can change on a dime from now to the end of the season. Definitely need one for balance, even indoors, a must for any game outdoors from here on in.

The only thing that the Prevent defense prevents is winning #Argos #CFL

Als show they are not done and Marsh shows he is not done in terms of consideration for more playing time, just to spike his doubters like me.

**jerrym** · 10-12-2015, 03:59 PM

Als wanted the kickoff more than the Argos.

Truer words never spoken!!

Jefferson should've jumped up to secure that INT...shoot, now they get a first down with one play left.

Marsh stinks, see him just loft that pass into the endzone, Jefferson should've come up with that...thankfully it's over, nice of the Als to take all the time off the clock with the lateral.

A shitty win is a win I guess.

**jerrym** · 10-12-2015, 04:06 PM

What an exciting finish to a relatively boring game.

**1argoholic** · 10-12-2015, 04:08 PM

I don't believe this crap that we just watched. Talk about sneaking out of dodge with a win.

Well we're in the playoffs. Home date at Tims. haha.

**Will** · 10-12-2015, 04:08 PM

Way too close for comfort against Tanner Marsh.

**"Issues"Mcgee** · 10-12-2015, 04:10 PM

Whew! Glad that one is over. I was pumped after the first TD. Sucks that Cato went down but I'm glad the Argos took advantage. Of course, it can't be a decisive victory, they have to let it get right down to the wire and give the opposition the chance to take it in the last minute.

**jerrym** · 10-12-2015, 04:12 PM

For a guy who has so little game experience, Canadian Thomas Miles was outstanding with 6 tackles and a sack. Great pickup by Barker in fourth round. Although I don't wish an injury on anyone, his sack of Cato and Cato's departure from the game may have been the most important play of the game, as it eliminated the best QB shot for an Al win.

Absolutely agree.

**paulwoods13** · 10-12-2015, 04:18 PM

Our defence is starting to come together nicely. Good pressure from the d-line (we almost never blitz but still get a lot of pressure at times) and our secondary had three picks (and Jefferson dropped two more). Miles is a superb replacement for Greenwood, and Isaac is far better than Agnew at OLB.

Our punting and kickoffs are a mess but it appeared Palardy might have done the second-last KO and it went deep. He also got off a good punt. I'd think long and hard about giving him all three jobs and cutting Alix, who looked completely hopeless out there.

Nice but not surprising to see Harris come back with a solid fourth Q after nearly three quarters of miserable offence. And Whitaker is a beast.

**Wobbler** · 10-12-2015, 04:22 PM

We're still a pretty average team overall, but one with lots of encouraging elements. If we can keep most of these guys together I think there's a good chance that the 2016 Argos will be a legitimate contender.

**Will** · 10-12-2015, 04:22 PM

Yeah, much like when Eric England injured Anthony Calvillo in the 2004 Eastern Final and the Argos got to feast on Ted White. He also had a nice play where he fought off a tackle to limit Sutton to a small gain. As the game wore on and Harris struggled, I was looking for defense and special teams to take it up a notch as I wanted to see a game where the Argos D/ST could win them a game. The special teams struggled today, but aside from the final couple of minutes the defense did a nice job.
