    Haha I guess that would be why. Didn't know he had been inactive. They aren't a fun team to watch.

  • Last week was his first game of the season and he had 9 tackles

    Even with the passport, I'll take Leggett.

Awful call. Both going for it and the play call itself.

And if they'd got the 2?

 

Still bad - same if Edmonton had converted the fake punt. You trust the textbook for a reason.

 

If they'd got the 2 yards, it would have been genius. Sometimes the textbook isn't the only guide. Don't matter now.

 

Sure it's not the only guide, but it's called the textbook for a reason. It's right more often than not.

You're probably right, but I thought with 2:36 left in the game and the way LeFevour had stolen momentum it was worth the risk. Ce la vie.

I understand the mindset. My thought is given it was a 7 point spread at the time, you punt and play the field position. Even if Hamilton advances the ball (which they did) you can still force a punt at the 40 or 50 yard line hypothetically and have a minute to work with on offence needing only a touchdown. The game was over essentially over barring a turnover as soon as the gamble failed as Hamilton needed only 10 yards to get into Medlock's range who is money to make it a 2 possession game.

True enough. Game over as soon as Ham got the ball back, however they got it.
