August 9, 201410 yr Author comment_72569 That would've been a rather crazy turnover if that had been overturned
August 9, 201410 yr comment_72572 Some good impro by Glenn, tonight. Both D's missed a ton of tackles. Lots of dumb penalties. TiCats simply have the ability to lose a game, anywhichway....
August 9, 201410 yr comment_72586 Wow, letting Giguere get behind them 2x now Isn't that Rod Black's dream? Or has he got a new man crush. He wasn't gushing about Giguere at all after those catches.

August 9, 201410 yr comment_72607 Hamilton keeps hanging in there with the good teams but can't seem to make that one last play to win. That kind of effort will eventually get them a few wins this year, mostly against eastern competition.

That kind of effort will eventually get them a few wins this year, mostly against eastern competition. Botched hold on a FG cost them the win against Calgary. Bad gun snap on the 2 yard line cost them a TD last night. Costly penalties & turnovers. The Cats have a suicide tendency to do stupid things at critical times. Is that just bad luck or do some players have character issues that Austin has to weed out? This is happening too much for it just to be a coincidence or an isolated event. Some players choke under pressure.

Some players choke under pressure. I don't think it's luck as much as it's being 'almost' good enough to win coupled with losing their first string QB and 3 starting O lineman plus others. LeFevour is getting better each game out, but that O line is still a big stinking pile. Hamilton is taking a bunch of dumb penalties. Some of that's on the coaching staff. Some on the players. Some on trying to do a little too much like getting one extra hit in. Some on backups getting beat and having to grab to survive. As the games are really close these mistakes are magnified much like the last couple of years in Bomberland.

Some players choke under pressure. Bombers 2010 Yup just was thinking the same thing. Eerily similar is that both the 2010 Bombers and this year's Tiger Cats also lost their starting QB early in the season. But yeah, the Tiger Cats are a competitive team, but just can't quite put it all together. They're like a baseball team that can get the hits to put men on base but just can't get that key RBI or homerun to get the win when they need it. They'll be looking back on this year as a team that almost had it but just couldn't keep their record on the ball.

The Ti-Cats are also over emotional on the defencive side, perhaps an ill advised reflection of the character of their head coach. Numerous times they were jumping up and down screaming at the officials and eventually they were punished for these outbursts with unsportsman-like conduct penalties which diminished their chances of winning further.

They are overly emotional. Reflection of the HC or reflection of the players they hired? Probably a bit of both. Everyone knows that Stewart is a hot head and is going to take some penalties and it doesn't matter if the HC is PLAP, Burke or Austin.
August 10, 201410 yr comment_72717 I just wanna say did anyone see the sack on Glenn where he faced pressure and then turtled up on the ground before anyone touched him? It looked hilarious.
August 10, 201410 yr comment_72718 I just wanna say did anyone see the sack on Glenn where he faced pressure and then turtled up on the ground before anyone touched him? It looked hilarious. Right....WestySucks already established that Kevin Glenn is a "pansy" a few weeks back. You want to bring that discussion up again?
August 10, 201410 yr comment_72727 I just wanna say did anyone see the sack on Glenn where he faced pressure and then turtled up on the ground before anyone touched him? It looked hilarious. While it looked funny it was actually a smart play. A younger less experienced QB would have tried to make a play and would have fumbled or thrown an INT. With the pressure in his face and 3 points sorely needed for the win, it was the best move Glenn could have made at that point. I couldn't fault him for turtling.

With the pressure in his face and 3 points sorely needed for the win, it was the best move Glenn could have made at that point. I couldn't fault him for turtling. Kevin Glenn seems to know that he's not a superhero and he accepts his limitations as a small QB, this probably explains his longevity in the league. People tend to hate him for this quality but what I see is a QB that can do his job very well as long as other components of the offence are doing their jobs moderately well. This means O-line is protecting and receivers are catching. When these two components are in place Glenn rarely loses a game because he is a precise commander of the offence and he moves the ball very well down the field. I really enjoy watching him in these situations because they are usually high scoring exciting games. If he's picking himself off the turf every second play I turn off the game because these games usually turn out to be duds in terms of entertainment value if the BB are not involved.

Have you ever seen Peyton Manning take a sack? he never gets hit cuz he goes down when all other options are gone... it's called being smart...

Have you ever seen Peyton Manning take a sack? he never gets hit cuz he goes down when all other options are gone... it's called being smart... Smart would be chucking the ball into the 10th row and not costing your team field position .. all Glenn was doing was protecting himself ..
August 10, 201410 yr comment_72800 I tend to agree with throwing the ball away... On the play I speak of he could of ran and done this.
