    Game Thread Home vs Redblacks Sunday August 13

    Was surprised to see no game thread yet, so here I start.

    Damn!! Coxie was a full participant in practice yesterday and a DNP today. I really hope they use another option other than Haydel. Maybe Daniels at WR and Nield at SB,? But I think that is wishful thinking.
    Kelly full participant again...very good sign. Cage too and Tate limited, so my guess is Cage goes back into the starting line up. Ciraco also full, so we should have our top O-line this week.

    I think it will be a big bounce back game. Argos by at least 14.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    Looking for a big bounce back game as well... but I am not as confident as AngeloV in thinking it will be at least 14 points. I will not bet on it, but would love to be wrong.

    Surprising considering the Jays are home. 3 Down Nation contributor Josh Smith has the Argos to win outright. That guy is $$$, so I am optimistic about a bounce back. Nield would be a huge improvement over Haydel in place of Coxie as AV stated. I expect the Red Blacks to continue with their Crum-bling.

    Yes. Union westbound (Burlington) is up. Oshawa line is not running.

    They have seen more of Nield, Brissett, Ungerer than they have of Haydel. The Canadians perform well when given opportunities. They have earned their place on the field and can start.
    GO ARGOS!!!

    I’m with Angelo. Argos by 14 (or more). The Chad rebounds in a big way.

    If he rebounds in a big way wouldn’t he then revert to “Machine Gun Kelly”?

    But he’s such a Chad, maybe the quintessential Chad, this guy.

    I don’t find it fitting to name the Argos QB after a kidnapper who spent his last 21 years in Alcatraz. It really sets a bad example.

    I take it you're not a fan of shotgun passes or bootleg plays?

    Kelly and Pickett both start. Cage is in for Tate, Ciraco starts at centre with Nicastro back at RG, Peters is back at CB (with Stiggers at the other CB and McFadden backing up), Costigan is in for Barlow, Brissett and Ungerer both start, with Coxie still out and Haydel now backing up. Brinkman, not surprisingly, is six-gamed.

    All in all a very good lineup, nothing is guaranteed but the Argos have no excuses and should win this one.

    When’s the last time we started 3 Canadian receivers? Glorious and free!

    This is great. I honestly don't know why Haydel is even in the line-up. I would prefer Nield, or even Byrd. Hadel is small, and hasn't shown any ability to be a CFL receiver.

    I can't remember did they mention what kind of injury Coxie has?
