Atomic Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Hamilton is the most one dimensional team in the league. If you can control Colloros than you got a good shot at beating them. Controlling Collaros is no easy task though. There is also Brandon Banks on ST to worry about and a ferocious defence. But I get what you're saying. Their run-game is non-existent. Mark F 1
bearpants Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Meanwhile Mtl looks to be making an impact running the ball and playing strong D... seems to be a pretty good formula...
Fatty Liver Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Hamilton is the most one dimensional team in the league. If you can control Colloros than you got a good shot at beating them. Can't see this as being much of a concern as long as they're winning handily, I'm sure they'll make adjustments as needed to strengthen their run game going into the home stretch.
iso_55 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Grigsby looked like a world beater tonite. Running hard up the middle & to the outside breaking tackles. A real threat catching the football tonite out of the backfield. Pass me that second bottle of rum ,I completely finished the first one. #thingsalwayslookdifferentinthemorning I honestly can't tell if you're being serious here. The runs I saw had him tackled by his foot a few times, and stopped while trying to push for more yards. Also don't forget about his last carry where he tried to go outside (when nothing was there) and ended losing yards that took them out of field goal range. I was being facetious. You couldn't tell? Grigsby sucks. Bigblue204 1

Mostly due to Derel Walker' s14 catch 183 yards.Toronto is 3-2 on the road.The Argos feature three highly successful first-year CFL players in Vidal Hazelton, Kevin Elliott and Tori Gurley. They have now combined for 14 of Toronto’s league-high 20 TD receptions. Each is on pace for at least 9 receiving touchdowns this year – and only two teams have ever done that; Calgary in 1993 (Sapunjis 15, Moore 12, Crawford 10) and Edmonton in 1991 (Craig Ellis 10, Jim Sandusky 10, David Williams.- Despite the 398 yards allowed last week, Edmonton still leads the CFL as the only club to allow under 300 yards per game (287.8). Their opponents have the fewest first downs, passing yards and lowest pass efficiency rating at 74.8 They lead the CFL with 27 sacks.- The last time Toronto won 4 games in a row came back in September 2013 when they ended the month with a 4-1 record. The last time that the Argos were as good as 7-2 at the halfway point was in 1997 on the way to 15-3.- In the last 3 games Trevor Harris was sacked 11 times, as many as in the season’s first 5 games. His 22 sacks against is the most in the CFL. Despite that, he leads the CFL in completion % at 74.1, in rating at 115.7 and with 19 TD passes.- Hazelton: Ranks #2 in the CFL with 38 catches and #3 at 501 yards on pace for 1,127 for the year.

Blueandgold Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Nice to Hamilton lose! This was probably the best game of the year.
iso_55 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 I loved when Hamilton lost. Especially with all the hype from TSN. They had crowned them GC champions. Trouble is, the GC is played at the end of November & not the end of August. Teams like Toronto, Edmonton & Calgary will only get better & they will stand in Hamilton's way. I'm thinking the Cats may have peaked. Mark F 1
Goalie Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Anyone else find the whole doughnut box thing very lame and annoying? Talk about lacking in creativity... I mean really, THF was being referred to as the doughnut box. That's ridiculous really.
gbill2004 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 @tsnmikehogan: Breaking news #Argos RB Brandon Whitaker fell ill & is out for tonight's game in Edmonton. Henry Josey has made the trip & will play. #CFL
Mark F Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Rushing yds - Mtl 123 Ham 29 Hamilton no running game, finally caught up to them last night. Would have thought Edmonton could do what Montreal did, cause they have a good defence, and a good running game. Perhaps Poppco out coached Austinco and Jones in Edmonton v Hamilton. Don't know why , but I think Collaros is overrated. I think Harris is a better passer. so is Willy. besides Collaros has a peculiar throwing motion. Anyone else find the whole doughnut box thing very lame and annoying yah, me. also found the "which movie star would play Milt/matt etc" . not funny. I pick Toronto or Edmonton to win
Fatty Liver Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Watson seems to be having a decent season wth the Esks. at least managing to stay healthy.
gbill2004 Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Watson seems to be having a decent season wth the Esks. at least managing to stay healthy.He doesn't play nearly as much anymore.
Fatty Liver Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Watson seems to be having a decent season wth the Esks. at least managing to stay healthy.He doesn't play nearly as much anymore. That's probably an intelligent way to use him, keeps him healthy for the clutch plays and games.

He's not a ratio-buster. More of a role player.
iso_55 Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Climie sure misses a lot of games on TSN. Why do they keep him? Well, TSN keeps Rod Black so why am I not surprised?
Guest J5V Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 LaPo being the comedian... How about Benny sticking his hand in Milt's face. "Did you stick your hand in my face? It's all about WINNING!" LOL!
Fatty Liver Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Kevin Elliott just lost his job. No kidding, that's the ball game.
blueandgoldguy Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Now the Argos are starting to look like a Creehan-led defense. Mark F 1
iso_55 Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Can Marve do what Franklin did tonight? Let's hope he shows he can win games starting. Mark F, blueandgoldguy and rebusrankin 3
