The summer months are tough on the big guys, and 10 straight weeks without rest is even tougher. They ran out of gas. yup the CFL definitely went out of their way to give other teams every advantage possible this year. Heal up hoggies, now we start the road to the cup. The perfect season garbage is over, let's focus on that third Grey Cup ring.

Imagine a playoff game with the opponent on our one. We’ve shown we can stop three downs. The line will be sure they ain’t offside.

I haven’t had a chance to watch it again… I was at the game and it looked like the DB grabbed early, but I only saw one replay on the Jumbotron. I agree it was a last ditch effort by O’Shea; nothing to lose.

August 13, 20222 yr comment_587005 He wasn’t offside. Unlike the billion times receivers are offside on the waggle every game.

I am not offering this up as an excuse, but it is the reality. The heart was there but the legs simply weren't. A stretch like that is especially tough on the guys in the trenches and it showed last night. Leggs had an awful game or we still win. I'm not upset at all by this loss, nor am I concerned about it in the least. We will come back refreshed and go on another roll with a few of our starters coming back to the lineup. Losses are never good, but if there is a silver lining to it I feel that it will serve to motivate Walters if any good ex CFLers are cut in the NFL the next week or so. Prior to this game, I would have put the odds of us going hard after Desjarlais (if he is cut) as slim just based on what offers he will receive....now I think we would be extremely competitive in bidding for his services. I wouldn't have thought we would look at many ex-CFL cuts at all...now I think Walters will make a splash if someone is available to push us even more over the top. That's exactly what I thought. They looked worn out. They dug real deep and almost ( should have ) won it but that insane schedule caught up to them. I caught a bit of the" miked up " show with Wolitarsky and it was interesting how he was talking about not ever having a month of football like that. How he was so exhausted and was learning new things about pushing himself. Neither O'shea or the team will admit it but it slipped out there on a live mike. Edited August 13, 20222 yr by the watcher
August 13, 20222 yr comment_587025 I can deal with Rose getting called on the PI. But, you have to call the one on Schoen in OT. Have any kind of consistency

Which speaks to not whining, just do your job.

I don’t know how that waggle business never gets flagged. The rule was explained to me, and I understood it at the time but that was during many beers and an interesting game. Someday, I’ll revisit the rule, if I can remember who the **** told me they can go past the line of scrimmage before the snap. I’m guessing/recollecting it has something to do with having one foot at the line when snapped.

August 13, 20222 yr comment_587062 I’m sure it has been said, but the shotgun draw on 2nd down before the squib kick was a terrible play call.

Yeah, I had the same thought. We kind of lapsed into the Lapo playbook there. Plenty of time on the clock, go for the end zone on 2nd down and try to get the TD, rather than just go for the safe play to set up the FG. Playing it safe in the CFL usually is the wrong way to go. There was time even to just go for another first down on 2nd down, and then take a shot or two for the endzone before trotting out Leggs. Hindsight is always 20-20 of course.

August 13, 20222 yr comment_587072 Am i drunk right now? Playing for the field goal was 100% the right call. The only think I hated about the second last play was that we didn't QB sneak to the muddle of the field. That was an easily make able field goal with no time left. No reason to risk the TD.

I don’t dislike the call other than it being a handoff at depth.

Yeah and if you’re so obviously not trying to gain yards and score just take knees to bleed clock, or put Prukop out just to roll forward. Edited August 14, 20222 yr by JuranBoldenRules
August 14, 20222 yr comment_587122 Yeah playing for the easy field goal was right. Given how much time the Montreal dl was spending in collaros face why risk another fumble or a bad throw? Bottom line it all came down to simply making that routine field goal and they didn't get the job done.
