I think the worst thing is this was a team failure. Sure you can point to the fumble, but ball control was ####ty all game, our D couldn't get a crucial stop in poor conditions. The turnover in the last play was just icing on the #### cake.

Because winning in overtime is at best a 60/40 proposition. In overtime you could be sitting in the exact same position. Do you then kick the field goal after a safe play. 2nd down 25 yard line TD to win. You take a shot. I think given the coverage it may have been better to go for 10 or 15 and the take the shot on the next play.
But no way do you run the ball there to centre it for a field goal. That is how you reduce your opportunity to win.

I do chuckle thinking about how Bo Levi talks about wanting to leave a legacy in this league and be remembered. Oh he'll be remembered all right, just not how he would like

You know, as much as this sucks for the team, city, players & us fans - that's as exciting a game you could have asked for. Great atmosphere, super Canadian. Snow.

He means on the fumble play when they were up 8. Go up by 9 on a missed field goal there and it's a 2-possession game, and (almost certainly) a Calgary victory.

Yah, I can agree with this. I can't agree with anyone who thinks it is the coach's fault or a bad call to go to the end zone, but it was a bad read and a bad throw. First big mistake Bo made all game, but he made it at the worst possible time. He went to the well once too often, fell in, and hit the bottom dead.

Nothing wrong with trying to win it...OT is a bit of a coin flip. The fumble though, just brutal...that was about the only possible way to lose that game.

Gutting result but this is pro sports... any other day, other circumstances, Stamps would have won... in the end it was a really entertaining game. Enjoyed watching it.

The sequence just before the fumble. A botched FG at WORST means the game goes into OT.

Again, Calvillo retired 3-5 in Grey Cups and he's one of the best CFL players of all time. 2 championship losses does not equal a failed career.

I'm okay with the stamps being aggressive and going for the touchdown the final play. Bo Levi just simply under threw the pass.

Considering they lost the game on a play where Bo threw a completion I'm not sure how you blame him

I put this lost on Kamar Jorden. If he didn't fumble that ball and Argos did not score that Quick 6, Stamps would have been ahead by 11 points at least instead. That bonehead tried to be a freaking hero trying to go to the end zone instead of going down with the first down. Stupid POS. I was actually glad earlier that Mitchell was throwing more to Davaris Daniels the whole game because I just don't trust Jorden with his dropped passes and his fumbleitis. I guess he's been taking tips from Anthony Parker. Damn this sting.
