Mr Dee Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 CFL.ca CFL Game #48 Team Notes – Edmonton at Hamilton: - Coming off a Bye since 2011: Since 2011 Hamilton has had 12 games coming off a bye week but are just 3-9 .250 (including a 1- 6 .143 mark since 2015). Their .250 winning pct. in post-bye games is the lowest in the CFL in that time. Overall teams have played 107 times after a bye since 2011 and CFL-wide they have gone 61-46 .570 and thus have taken advantage of the extra rest. - Mike Reilly 300+: Reilly is tied for #10 all-time (with Sam Etcheverry) with 39 games of 300+ yds. He needs just 84 passing yards to go by Condredge Holloway (25,193) into #18 all-time and is just 25 completions away from 2,000. In 87 starts he is 51-36. - 1st half vs 2nd half: There has been a distinct difference in these two teams' results in the 1st half of games vs 2nd halves, especially in passing where 14 of Edmonton's 19 TD throws have been before half-time. Of Edmonton's 15 T/Os, 11 are in the 2nd half. - Hamilton Home vs Road: The Ti-Cats have relied on home field advantage more than any other club in the CFL recently. Since 2011 they have won 35 games at home vs just 24 on the road - almost 60% of their 59 victories. BC is next with 57% of their wins. Reilly TDs: He has 8 touchdowns thus far on pace for 16. The CFL record by a QB is 14 by Doug Flutie in 1991. Note: Jackie Parker had 17 TDs in 1957 but played only half of that season as a QB (8 starts at QB, 8 at receiver with 5 TD receptions). - Hamilton receiving I: Jalen Saunders left their last game in the 1st Quarter and did not return after picking up just one catch for 26 yards. Combined with Luke Tasker and making up their #1 & #2 receivers from 2017 (180 receptions in total), they accounted for just two catches last week. - Edmonton #1 & #2 receivers: The Esks can make it twice in 3 years with the CFL's Top Two receivers ('16, '18). That has occurred just 6 times since 1958. Winnipeg 1961 & 1971, Edmonton 1979, Calgary 1999, Edmonton 2001, & Edmonton in 2016. - Brandon Banks: Now has a 22-game receiving streak, 12 clutch 2nd down catches in his last 3 games, and 100+ yards in 11 of his last 14 games. Since Sep 4/17, he is the CFL's leading receiver with 1,677 yards over the 18 games since then: 1. Banks HAM 1,677 2. Saunders HAM 1,451 3. Walker EDM 1,450 4. Tasker HAM 1,074 5. Arceneaux BC 1,063 - Hamilton Offence #2: The Tiger-Cats come in with the #2 ranking for Net Offence at 403.5 yards per game in 2018. They have gone over the 500-yard mark twice already, something they did just once across all of the 2016-2017 seasons. The last time that Hamilton averaged over 400 yards per game was back in 2004 at 405 per game. - Sean Whyte up to #2 at 86.2%: With his current streak of 13 made FGs in a row, Whyte has passed Justin Medlock for the #2 ranked FG% of all-time. Whyte is now 288-of-334 in his career for an 86.2% success rate. Medlock sits at 316-of-367 86.1% and they both trail all-time leader Rene Paredes (327/375 87.2%). - Red Zone Defence: The Ti-Cats have stopped opponents 15 times out of 23 Red Zone chances, #1 in the CFL at just 35%. They have forced opponents into 6 Red Zone Turnovers, #1 in the CFL. - EDM last 4 games gap in Field Position: In the last 4 games, Edmonton opponents have started 12 drives inside the Eskimos' half of the field compared to just 4 by the Edmonton in the opponents' end. On average they have had to start at their 31-yard line vs the opposition's average start at the 42-yard line - a gap of 560 yards worth of field length. - Most penalized club: The Eskimos reached 1,000 penalty yards last week with their 6th game of 100+ yards or more this year. - 536 Net Yards: Last week Edmonton gained 536 yards of Net Offence, their most in almost 4 years since Nov 1/14 (550 vs BC). - J.C. Sherritt: Has a Sack in 3 of his last 4 games after getting none in the first 5 games. He now has 476 career Def. Tackles. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Classic, Bigblue204, MOBomberFan and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSkunk Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 We NEED the help from the cats this week..... go cats Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USABomberfan Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Well, we need help unfortunately and it has to come from the cats tonight. They can win, but Masoli must not play like a sucko which unfortunately I'm afraid he will. Course who knows, if they can negate the deep balls and frustrate Reilly they have a shot.

Zontar Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Down to my last molecule of confidence in Jones/Masoil. And its degrading fast. EDM is due for a loss. Yes, thats what Im clinging to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 I think Ticats have a solid chance. You have to play the pass well to beat Edm. Something hammy does better than most teams. Masoli just needs to put up some points. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USABomberfan Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Course maybe they can fix the red zone problems using Alex Green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) Hamiltion should win this game. Sooner or later Air Reilly is going to crash. could be int, could be Reilly getting clobbered, or both. Once again hoping for some headphone smashing, gaitor aid throwing from the Edmonton side. No matter what, those displays make Edmonton games fun to watch. Edited August 23, 2018 by Mark F Mr Dee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted August 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Interestingly enough, Masoli is 2-0 vs Edmonton, and Reilly is 6-4 vs Hamilton. 🤗 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
