Game Thread - September 28, 2018 - Argos @ Stampeders

[ArgoRavi]

Calling this the big upset of the year. Either way someone will come out of this upset.

That is the spirit!

[Argo57]

Well that was easy!

[Neely2005]

And once again we let our opponent score on their opening drive. What a joke.

[Argo57]

Argo DE play bottom of the barrel this season.

[jerrym]

Yell holds Stampeder WR for almost 15 yards giving the Stampeders an unnecessary illegal contact penalty, but the Argos were still able to stop Calgary on first and goal. At least they are fighting hard so far.

[Neely2005]

You've got to be kidding... can we find a kicker please? How many games have we lost due to missed field goals? 4?

[jerrym]

More unnecessary penalties: procedures and taking too long. Same old story showing the lack of systemic on-the-field organization.

[argotom]

We are not playing with any sense of urgency so far, a reflection of the entire year.
As for Medeiros this guy has to go and frankly should not have been playing especially after last week.

[jerrym]

And Noel adds to the lack of discipline by taking a roughing penalty after the play.

[argotom]

2 time counts, an illegal substitution and a roughing penalty, seems to me a lack of team discipline.

[jerrym]

Followed by an illegal substitution penalty all in a matter of a few plays. Teams who keep doing this hardly ever win.

[Argo57]

Where was Roberson’s tackle on that play?

[Wobbler]

I expressed concern about Green's declining play earlier this year, but his catch at 3:02 was really impressive. There's (more than) a little life in him yet.

Imagine this offence without him.

[argotom]

Imagine this offence without him.

With the exception of his great catch, it's been sputtering mostly east west dink and dunk crap.

[jerrym]

I'm amazed the Argos are still in this with all their dumb penalties against a team with a killer instinct.

[R.J]

Imagine this offence without him.

McBLT would have no one to throw to...


Anyone else catch one of the OL telling Carter to STFU ?

Are you surprised ?
We've ran the Trestman offence since Elizondo brought it over in 2010... Same shit different year.

I think it was Van Zeyl.

Yes surprised in light of the AC years in Montreal.
Trestman made him a master of the quick release, attacking downfield.
Thought this would be the basis of Ricky being rejuvenated in the same vain.
With the exception of the last year's brief playoff and GC run, the attacking offense has been MIA.
