    Official Argonauts vs Stampeders Game Thread (September 20, 2019)

    Another must win game for the Argonauts against a solid but beatable Calgary team.
    Argo offence must avoid turning the ball over while the D Line must pressure Bo Levi Mitchell into making mistakes.
    Finally, fall football is here!!

    Looking forward to our last summer game, hoping that traffic cooperates so that we can make kickoff.

    I will be eagerly waiting for the announced attendance. This season high of 16,734 is the number to beat from June 22nd.

    Was in Calgary last week and attended the Hamilton/Calgary game. Mitchell had a mediocre first half and was under and over throwing his receivers. He corrected that in the second half and we shouldn't expect he will be playing that poorly against us. To beat them, the team must avoid turnovers. They have some excellent receivers and if Mitchell is having a good game, our DB's will be under considerable pressure. The priority will be to put pressure on Mitchell or he could pick the DB's apart.

    However, they are beatable and without the blocked field goal attempt Hamilton would have won that game.

    I think lower scoring and hard hitting. Greenwood's been very good in the middle this year. A good start, after the bye, will tell me lots about how focused this group is, or isn't.
    Hustle hit and never quit

    Greenwood left Saturday’s game with an injury in the first half. I’m sure it’s just coincidence, but the Stamps D was much better after he left the game.

    BLM had plenty of help from Reginald Begelton and Eric Rogers on Saturday. They made several great catches that were off target. Aside from those 2, Calgarys receiving core appears average at best. Despite their record, the Stampeders seem off from past years. Like it was mentioned earlier, they are beatable.

    I'm expecting a smaller crowd than that weekend game due to the fact that this is a weekday game.

    Calgary's defense is ranked 3rd in the league and will provide a real test for our offense. I hope that MBT can continue the type of play he has displayed over the past 5 games. IMO, this game and the next one against Saskatchewan, will go a long way to defining whether he is or can be the long term answer at QB. I am still not convinced, but really hope he does well obviously.

    Argos margin for error the rest of the season is virtually zero, so they have no choice but to win!

    It would be nice to get a win against them too as each of the other eastern teams have a win against Calgary this season.

    This could be a problem for Calgary as Dickenson says they have no one in house to replace Greenwood or Dwayne Norman.

    Both Dwayne Norman and CFL tackle leader Cory Greenwood were injured in the game and were on the sidelines in “civvies” for the second half.

    Dickenson couldn’t elaborate on the injuries after the game, but did note that the change of outfit isn’t typically a good sign.

    The Stamps are thin at linebacker right now and Dickenson indicated that they have no one in house to add to the roster if Greenwood or Norman have to miss time.

    Nate Holley, Riley Jones and Fraser Sopik were pressed into action and while they were a part of the defensive unit that held the Ticats scoreless through the second half, don’t be surprised to see a transaction or two ahead of the game against Toronto next week.

    Recently signed DE Evan Foster appears to be on Calgarys active roster. Could be an emotional return this Friday for the former Argo draft pick.

    Reggie Begelton, who leads the CFL in receiving yardage with 1,036 yards and Cory Greenwood, who continues to lead the league in tackles with 79, have been placed on the injured list during the last 24 hours.
