O'Shea has done that often, and I've always found it strange. I guess he values the wind more than the extra possession, but from my seats up high, I don't think the wind was much of a factor yesterday and especially with the score as it was.

Think of how many points they scored under 3 mins in the 2nd quarter. You want the wind in the 2nd and 4th. It’s way different than NFL with timing rules. The clock never stops in the 1st and 3rd but under 3 minute warning both halves stops every play no matter outcome.

Your melon head team scored 6 pts and all in the first quarter. After that your offense did jack ****. Actually I know what the excuse was... Dan Clark wasn't playing today. He would have been the difference in the entire game Had a laugh about that… this dude disappeared real quick 🤣 14 hours ago, Super Duper Negatron said: Those 2 OT losses go the other way and we are coasting to 1st like the Argos. In theory, might be better off not to? 3-2 down the stretch (as long as one win is against BC) guarantees first in the west… and that’s assuming BC goes 5-1 Super Duper Negatron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about the wanting the wind, but it is an extra possession in that we could have had the ball to start either the 1st or the 3rd but we chose to kick off to them instead. As it turns out, I'm pretty sure Saskatchewan had one or two more possessions than we did (as they started with the ball each half and, I believe, ended with the ball for a tiny possession each half). I'm not saying it's a bad decision, but it's a curious one that O'Shea continues to make. He must value having the wind in the long quarters much more than the ball in the short quarters.

Yeah but I feel like the amount of times we defer at coin toss and then also choose to kick in the third quarter is higher with O'Sh than previous coaches, or perhaps than other current CFL coaches.

17to85 Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 If you defer to the 2nd half it's because you want the wind in the 4th. This really seems like a nothing thing to fret about... with as important as the last 3 minutes of the 4th quarter of the game often as in the cfl I'd worry about a coach that doesn't prioritize it. Really there should be equal possessions given that you give the other team possession after what ever happens on yours. Time of possession is what matters and that's based on how your offense and defense play. Goalie, Jesse, K-Shack and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially about time of possession mattering more than number of possessions, and the last 3 minutes of the fourth clearly mattering more than last 3 minutes of the second, which would be why teams tend to take the ball in the first after the coin toss when the winning team defers.
