Anyone else mad at the Ti-Cats?

[earl2]

So the TigerCats hung in, played clutch football and took advantage of their opportunities against Calgary last night, only to throw it all away by allowing Burris to push the ball downfield without any resistance in the last few seconds. There is no way the Stampeders should have been able to drive the ball like that.

Message to Greg Marshall and the rest of the Tiger Cats coaching staff:
When you're up by two points late in the game, and you refuse to rush the opponents QB, and you allow their receivers 35 yards of open field before they can even see a DB, you're going to lose the game.
Preventing the opposition from scoring a TD doesn't work if it's only a two point lead.

The only way that could have been worse is if it was the Esks instead of the Ti-Cats.

Come to think of it, they already did that last minute crap on us already.

Re: Anyone else mad at the Ti-Cats?

As has been mentioned on various sites, the Cats shoulda just left the receiver lying there for that second-last play.. the refs probably woulda waited a few seconds before blowing the play dead and the game was over.. oh well, we've long expected no other teams are gonna do us favours, so we just gotta win the games we're in, I guess!

I'm pissed at the no call on the roughing the passer call that the stamps should have had and the non call on Copeland.

I was screaming at the T.V. watching the last minute of this game.

that roughing the passer non-call was bizarre, to say the least.. when the Cats had it called on 'em earlier in the game, I thought for sure that would draw the flag.. inconsistency is still something George Black has to work on...

Mad at the Cats? no. Disappointed, yes.

At least they demonstrated that Calgary isn't a powerhouse!

THEY demonstrated it? Funny.. I thought we'd proven that point already in the past few weeks..

Re: Anyone else mad at the Ti-Cats?

Hamiltons playcalling was worse then the Esks playcalling on offence. Maas went deep, what, two, maybe 3 times? How many times has Calgary done this fluky crap over the last 2 seasons.

See Ang, this is what I meant by Calgary being lucky last year when they ended up 11-7. Games like this.

Re: Anyone else mad at the Ti-Cats?

The Esks still have lots to prove. Leaving Calgary hanging around the doorstep for the last two games is not good enough. They should have been bleeding in the alley by the 4th quarter.

Both of those plays had me scratching my head.

There were three officials who would have had great looks at the late hit on Maas. Why none of them threw a flag is beyond my understanding.

Re: Anyone else mad at the Ti-Cats?

The non call on Copeland and the non roughing call against Maas were atrocious. This league is becoming like soccer. The *****s that bitch to the refs every time they are touched get the calls going their way and the tough ball players get screwed. I even think the Stamps should have been called for roughing on Maas the play before the non call when he ran. Maas threw the ball and no stamp was real close, then they show him getting up with a cut on his chin.

Hamiltons game plan seems to be just like the Esks, no passes allowed for more than 8 yards. Talk about making it easy for DB's. Also of course Hamilton did the same brain did thing the Esks did against Burris, the moronic 3 man rush. Burris folds under a big pass rush and these lame brained D-coordinators give him a free ride by dropping back a couple useless spectator linebackers at 15 yards. Sorry Kavis, I loved you as a player bu your play calling totally stunk and cost your team the game.

ps...Boreham should have been cut by the time the Hamitlon plane landed.

Re: Anyone else mad at the Ti-Cats?

Burris folds under a big pass rush

Exactly. And it's been this way for as long as he's been in the league.

You'd think by now that the rest of the league would have that figured out.

I don't want to sound too much like Nanookster ( ) but if the Esks in week 1 and the Ti-Cats last night don't drop nine guys back into coverage, the Stamps are almost certainly 0-3.



btw, sounding like 'Nookster isn't ALWAYS a bad thing...

Re: Anyone else mad at the Ti-Cats?

The refs really pissed me off in that game, it's getting out-of-hand. Every league has questionable reffing, but the reffing I saw last night was embarrasment. I wish there was a Stamps fan out there who would be man enough to admit it too.

That would be the day. Except for Calf, I don't think ANY Stamps fans ever admit anything that went wrong against their team.

BURRIS SUCKS. MAN, I HATE HIM!!

Hate is a strong word but I could use stronger.
