GAME 3: STAMPEDERS(2-0) at TORONTO(1-1)

[LockedOut]

Putting that INT on Burris if it stands. Threw it too high and too hot.

[GirlySports]

the ball hit the ground!

[SportsJunky]

Enough to overturn?

[zamler]

No way that's a catch, Calgary should get one more kick at the can. Yep one more chance.

[SportsJunky]

3rd down here we go

[zamler]

What kind of play call was that? Awful. Well the Stamps are 2-1, that's actually better than I thought they would start.

[LockedOut]

Offense really stinks right now. Lucky to be 2-1 so far.

[flamingreen]

Great game Frank.

[3 Justin 3]

Our offense is terrible right now, 4 INT's today, could have been 5. That is horrendous.

[flambers]

Wow the Stamps stink, so far I thought they played poorly in all 3 games. Bad news is the schedule gets allot tougher.

Burris had a brutual game.

[Bertuzzied]

Holy. At least the stamps made the game entertaining. but holy.

That must be the worst performance in Burris's career and thats including the Chicago Bears.

[LockedOut]

Saskatchewan will kick the Stamps ass next game. Calgary's had it easy the first 3 games playing TO twice and Hamilton.

Yep. Maybe it's time to take a look at Tate or Pickett as a change of pace when Burris is struggling. IMO he needs to start getting pushed as he's had it too comfy. After four picks (three of them being of the brutal variety) you know he's not on his game why not bring in a backup. If he's going to use the first 1/4 of the season as practice maybe he should do it from the bench. He hasn't been helped by his receivers but he threw some terrible balls and still seems to struggle when his initial read is covered.

[Bertuzzied]

Our receivers are terrible. When was the last time we threw a deep pass.

We need Rambo back asap!

[OzSome]

Well Burris and the OLine picked the wrong time to collapse. What a waste of 2 points that was already in a bag against a brutal team. There are way too many mistakes on both team but the Argos took advantage of the Stamps' mistakes late in the game. Bad coaching decision as well on the missed field goal. I thought Deon Murphy had lots of room to run the ball but he gave up a single instead. I don't think we can blame that on the rookie because that was purely a coaching decision trying to be conservative. It blew up on their face thanks to Burris bad throw and got intercepted. There is no way that the Stamps would have lose this game that's why it hurts a bit. Toronto didn't beat the Stampeders, the Stamps beat themselves. Overconfident perhaps?

3 of them his fault?

The first 2 were 100% the receivers fault.

It is early the Stamps haven't looked good so far but nobody in the league have.

Luckily it is the CFL and although Rider trolls are ready to throw the Grey Cup parade already CFL history is littered with teams that looked good early and done nothing at all.

The Stamps need Rambo back badly as they have no deep threat and no hands at all out there. Having him make those clutch 2nd down catches will do a lot to help this team out.

Sorry dude, I disagree with you. Burris had a rough game but he wasn't the only one who played poorly. Stamps didn't use Reynolds much in this game. When your OLine is struggling, you must mixed up the game by running or throwing. I will stick with Burris definitely all season. He'll bounce back next game.

Only the 1st was the receiver's fault. The 2nd was behind the receiver as the DB didn't have to move to catch the ball. The last two were bad decisions.

Never said he needed to be pulled for good. When he's struggling though he needs to spend time on the bench. Even if it's for a series or two. He's been really hot and cold for the past 20 games and when he's cold the team needs a change of pace.

The Db got the ball because he moved and aggressively went after the ball.

If Sam had done anything other than stand there it was a incomplete and if he put in half the effort of the DB he would have caught it easily.
