    39-1 Calgary and it isn't even half-time. How long can 0-5 (after this game) Kent Austin survive?

    Andrew Buckley went 10/10 for 106 yards and his first passing TD in the second half before giving way to Stanza. Great to see a Canadian QB looking damn good!

    Difficult to believe that the Ticats have dropped off so much so quickly. This was a team that looked like they would be a contender for years to come at the end of the 2015 season. However, they have only won two games IIRC since the middle of last season. There are probably a lot of reasons why this is but I think that they miss Tommy Condell and Orlando Steinauer from their coaching staff immensely. From what I have heard and read, Condell was the offensive voice of reason and the buffer between Collaros and Austin.
    Chad Kelly + Dan Adeboboye + David Ungerer + Damonte Coxie + DaVaris Daniels + Dejon Brissett = Unstoppable Force

    I wonder if Hamilton regrets cutting Cassius Vaughn and not resigning Johnny Sears ( despite his huge error last night) and Rico Murray? All have contributed to an improved Argo defense.

    Changes should be coming to Hamilton in the off season. Austin has no one, but himself to blame for this whole mess.

    I didn't think the Tiger-Cats were going to go into McMahon and beat the Stampeders, but 60-1?

    Tillman is going to fire his good ole boy buddy who hired him? At the insistence of Bob-O the owner, who really knows his football ?

    Agreed RJ.
    All I can think of is Austin's arrogant sneer when things are going his way, major dose of humble pie looks good on this asshole!
    Watching Austin in action makes me appreciate Marc Trestman more everyday!!!

    I'm just worried what damage the Stamps will do on Thursday. Maybe CFL historians can recall how teams generally respond after blow out wins? Do they end up losing the next week or keep on winning?

    While I do think the talent is there on defence (when healthy), it's not there on offense, and ever since Austin took over the play calling the Ticat offense has never looked the same. Austin's personality and micro managing ways have cost him some good coaches, and as smart as Reinbold is at x's and o's on special teams, he's no defensive co-ordinator. I honestly think Austin has lost the room and Collaros confidence in him, not to mention that Collaros himself has regressed and can't seem to slow the game down right now. Austin has final say on the roster, so the teams lack of talent falls directly on him. I wouldn't be surprised to see a new GM and Benevides or Condell named HC in the off season.

    Totally agree with this summary, Collaros was also throwing some wounded duck passes last night.
    The whole Hamilton team looked like they knew they were going to get their asses handed to them from the opening kickoff.
    Could you imagine Ba Ba Booey in the Hammer, priceless!!

    I have been predicting a player wide revolt against Austin for a few years now. The losing has helped accelerate things this year. Austin's coaching personality only goes so far and can be tolerated with winning seasons, but add compiling losses and players will turn on the arrogant ass.

    Maybe Austin will do a Wally. Hire someone to Coach for a while and then take over again to right the Ship.

    Rich Stubler and Austin were the co-ordinators on the 2004 Argos team, so they may have a relationship there.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    Didn't Cynamon fire Austin because he thought Kenty wasn't using Ricky Williams correctly on the offense? Austin thought he knew better than everybody else back then.
