East Semi-Final: Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Montreal Alouettes - November 4, 2023

[TrueBlueGuy]

I’m so glad the Argos moved on from him and signed Pickett who is a much better player and seems to be a great teammate.

IMO from game 1 of this season Pickett was the best pickup the Argos made this past off-season. Helluva good player.

Just throwing this out...two consecutive years of 8-and-10, two consecutive East Semi losses, not starting your highest-paid player at QB, not using your other major add, Butler, nearly enough when Montreal is somewhat weak vs the run, your top receiver who led the league in yards not being thrown to, IS IT TIME for the Cats to make a change of Head Coach??

Yes.
Steinauer looked rather disinterested and clueless on the sidelines this season, if Hamilton is smart they will punt him to the curb.

He could punt himself and move upstairs permanently

That's the likely move.

This is a team that has really declined since their 15-3 season in 2019. They haven't done as good of a job drafting and recruiting since that time and it really showed this year when they seemed to be constantly trying to improve their lineup with other teams' cuts - that is usually not a good sign.

I never felt that the Ticats were a well-constructed team this year and there seemed to be a lack of a coherent vision as to what this team should be. Needless to say, I am not surprised that they lost today.

I can't believe that Steinauer started Schiltz, and even more perplexed that he waited until the game was pretty well over before he said, go win this, Bo. I questioned earlier this year whether O had checked out, now I am sure of it. Shiltz is a good back up, but not starter material. I call him Mr between the 20's.

I think it's almost a sure bet Milanovich will be their HC next year--if he wants the job.

I’m not involved in any of the Ticats chatter but I wonder if fans are starting to turn on Scott Mitchell. Seems like the franchise peaked in 2019 and just on a downward spire. I did see many posts online after the game where fans vowed to not renew seasons. A lot of blame towards Steinhauer.

First or 2nd caller on the 5th quarter postgame wants Mitchell gone.

I don’t think he deserves the opportunity to do so.

I don’t think he deserves the opportunity to do so.

But it's a classic move of someone that holds a duo role. Upper management may dictate this happens.

They need big changes there IMO.

And this Argo fan hopes they hire Scotty M as HC - so the Argos D can get to face more standard, simpleton CFL offence and the likes of Shiltz at QB and Butler at RB.

But as a CFL fan, love to see some new blood there instead of recycling of more GOBs.

I got a chuckle when Duane Forde mentioned Duke Williams was out with an injury….truth is Hamilton got wise and sent him home a couple months ago. What a mess that organization is.

CFL Fans in Toronto Face book group organized a real nice playoff Viewing party on Duffy;s on Bloor west. Lots of Ticat , Rider , ARgo and some Bomber fans. Sound up for both games ... Good times and good people.
