Guest J5V Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 FWIW, in 1956, Montreal scored 82 points on Hamilton in an 82-14 drubbing. Just saying.
Brandon Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 Maybe the riders are not the worst team USABomberfan 1
rebusrankin Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 I feel like Toronto, Montreal and Saskatchewan are in a secret massive contest to field the worse team.
WBBFanWest Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 Well, won't be seeing Bluto around here until December. There are 10's of people devastated by the results of today's game. SPuDS, Eternal optimist, blue_gold_84 and 2 others 5
do or die Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 Bluto is going to be Blotto, after this one. He and the die hards, deserve much, much, better this this... Bomberfan85 1
Tracker Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) Lets look at the bright side. Parity in the league is good- right? Well, the Lions, Als, Argos and Riders are equally pathetic and when they play each other, it will be entertaining and with unpredictable outcomes. And that's what watching sports is all about, yes?

do or die Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 Well, the Franklin Expedition turned South, in a hurry. blue_gold_84 1
17to85 Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 The Argos being a steaming pile of **** does no favours for the league. blue_gold_84 1
Adrenaline_x Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 its not on Franklin i don't think. Their receivers were not getting open, there run game wasnt moving and their o-line was getting pushed around.. .Very similar to the EDM - BC game last night but BC had Rielly that was able to get the ball to his recievers sometimes. And the TO Defense was out to lunch on alot of those Touchdowns,

The lion's share of the blame definitely goes to the coaches, very stupid people they are. But unfortunately, Franklin can't be absolved of his portion of the blame either. Seems to get a bit too rattled lately even to a point of missing routine throws. He's certainly not in the best of situations, but as the chosen one in FA signings last year, that's part of your job is to turn a lower level less competitive team into a contender. Thus far, I just haven't seen that from Franklin.
Brandon Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 Long story short.... team needs to extend Streveler big time!!! Fred C Dobbs and Bigblue204 1 1
Floyd Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 Hammie tied a record... last win by this margin was 65-15 against Winnipeg back in 1999... Mark F 1
Mr Dee Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 If the game in Edmonton was a sack attack deBaCle, what kind of adjective would describe what happened in Toronto? An O-Line in disarray leading to 4 QB sacks and many more rushed throws. The league’s self proclaimed best running back, James Wilder jr. 6 carries 12 yards. James Franklin. Less and less talk about his being a bonafide starter. Tackling by the Argos? I’ve seen better tackling from fishermen. It wasn’t just one guy missing tackles, it was the whole touch football team. I’d say back to square one for the Argos, but could they find it without letting Hamilton score again? The only thing worse is if Drake would have been there. The Argos now have to play seven straight games against Western opponents. Yikes!
Tracker Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 The Argos and Alouettes have some hope because they have credible coaches but the same cannot be said for either the Lions or the Riders. This is as unbalanced a league as I have seen in a long while.
do or die Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 They say that very early in the year, D usually has an edge on O. But we have seen a terrific amount of simply atrocious D - inability to cover and simply inept tackling....right out of the gate

Stickem Posted June 23, 2019 Report Posted June 23, 2019 I said about the Redblack's/Regina game that I witnessed two of the worst D's in the league....I think I'll add a third

Sometimes he stands calmly in the pocket and throws perfect passes over the middle... he's got a strong arm... looks like an all star. then nothing. Wonder what the problem is. Definitely not ability to throw. Edited June 23, 2019 by Mark F

Too much time watching his protection, not enough time spent looking downfield.
