TBURGESS Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 I felt pretty good about my Montreal pick in the first quarter, but they let me down by fumbling their chance at a win away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Yep, and you can say that's 3 games Calgary has won by the skin of their teeth. How would 1-5 look on the Stamps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 No matter how badly BLM plays the Stamps just won't play Tate. They have an experienced qb like that in the bullpen & he sits. One thing I can say about Tate that may have changed is his head space. I THINK... but don't know... but I get the sense that he's matured. If he came into a game he wouldn't be a crazy man anymore.

I've said from day one I would take Tate if available. He's probably the best second string QB in the league right now. Ask Sask and us about that importance.

kelownabomberfan Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Joe Fuller: one rush, minus forty yards. yeah what the hell was that about? All the Stamps had to do was down the ball and run out the clock, and instead they do this weird back pass thing - what would have happened if Fuller had missed the ball and it had bounced around in the end zone? Montreal could have jumped on it and scored a TD. I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montreal could have jumped on it and scored a TD. I don't get it. There was still time on the clock even if they downed the ball. In all seriousness, that was the best play available to do. If they punt it, Logan could have taken it back...again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnzo Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 Yeah, it was third down and there were more than 10 seconds left in the game when they put the ball into play. If they'd just downed the ball the clock would've stopped on change of possession and Montreal would've had a play or two on O. And it'd be tough to burn ten seconds just running around in the backfield, never mind the injury risk to BLM. So it was funny-looking but I can't think of a better thing for them to have done. Weirdly, the CFL stats for the game don't include that play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 The thing I don't get is how Cato leapfrogged Bridge. Higgins cut Cato and kept Bridge but suddenly it was Cato starting. Cato must have had a heck of a great practice that week... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted the publicity of having a Canadian QB on the roster but never thought they would actually have to play their #3.
