Questionable calls and decision making have dogged Higgins for his head coaching career. One of the reasons he was canned in Edmonton was his decision to go for a failed fake punt in the WSF against the Riders in 2004. The Riders got points off it and the Esks lost the game.
But I agree with Oz, Reynolds should be used way more. Play action only works if you actually run the ball consistently. Copeland and Lewis are both overrated IMO and weren't making plays earlier in the year so I don't disagree with the moves he's made there but I'd be throwing the rock to Boerigter alot more but he sits out last night. I don't know - maybe it's taking a while for the receivers to mold into a unit in Cortez's offence?
