typical Huff. The only compliment I can pay him is he let Tate play.

Cornish-"we don't know who we are"

[zamler]

I can't believe the Stamps pee'd the game away to the Argos, Toronto is a dreadful, terrible excuse for a football team.

[Erick Estrada]

Strange season. Riders and Stamps both the class of the division in recent years tank and the Eskimos rise from the basement.

[OzSome]

Stamps lack the killer instincts. How many times they lost to a team that have been struggling? Early in the season Edmonton was giving away QB sack and couldn't score but instead of going after the vulnerable OLine and QB, they didn't pressure them at all and instead they gave up QB sacks. Before the Moncton game, Hamilton played like crap and gave up so many QB sacks. Against the Stamps, Hamilton kicked their butt. Last game against BC they came back and was ahead by 1 point. Third down gamble by BC and no pressure on the QB. BC won the gamble and ended up winning by a field goal. Tonight, the worst team in the CFL don't have any business playing better against the Stamps let alone scoring 28 points. Stamps came back and was ahead by 1. Running plays who's been successful all night were abandoned. One running play by Cornish in the last 10 minutes??? I am struggling to figure out what the heck is DD thinking when he abandons the plays that gives the team the most success. Their excuse before was the reason the Stamps abandoned the run was because they were down early most of the time. What the heck is DD's excuse for abandoning the run when they were ahead by 1 point and need to run the clock the down? Defense collapsed with the stupid penalties and lo and behold... Stamps lost again by a field goal. Stamps problems: No killing instincts, too many stupid penalties and way too many turnovers. How can a team with so much talents play like crap when it needed?

It's more like CORNISH: Double D forgot my name and forgot that I've been running really well all game.

Coaching has been very poor this year and it's trickled down to the players. I still like Huff but he needs to reevaluate himself and his staff this offseason. That clown haired dude on special teams can go and so can Jones IMO.

Stupid penalties cost the Stamps another win.

Tate should start the next game based on his second half performance.

[browna]

Atrocious way to finish off that game. Only caught the second half but after getting within 3, the offense sputtered to a stop, just getting a fg, then failing to convert on key 2nd downs after getting the lead, giving the argos a couple chances with more time on the clock then they should have had.

Ugly broken leg. Hopefully the team doctor keeps an eye on Huff as it looked like he was ready to have a breakdown as that last Argos drive was handed to them, and after the game.

CFL where anything can happen, but with Renyolds and Rambo benched, now Burris struggling heavily, the locker room has to be in disarray if it wasnt already. Have to pull something out down the stretch to get a home playoff game.

[Flickered Flame]

Interesting tweet coming from Al Cameron:

Joffrey Reynolds may be back in the picture; both running backs were banged up tonight. Don't know how serious yet

[Flickered Flame]

Tate on whether he expects to start next week: "I don’t get paid to give my opinion on who should play or who shouldn’t.”

[Flickered Flame]

From Ian Busby:

Burris on decision: "I don’t know what the thought is towards me. I’m still Henry Burris, I’m still the reigning MOP of this league, and I’ll be ready to fire on all cylinders whenever my number is called."

[Flickered Flame]

Burris is suppose to be on QR 77 before 10:30.

[zamler]

I’m still Henry Burris

That's what I'm afraid of.

The Eskimos are still a joke. We should have no problem getting by them if we play them in the playoffs. There is NO WAY we can beat BC though.

Dave Dickenson is a maroon and in order to save our season, they need to fire his ass before the season ends.

and Chris Jones is also an idiot. I would not be sad if he didn't come back next season.

[PeteLFan]

Reigning MVP lol resting on last years laurels I see. Burris is a big baby you could see the tears in his eyes when drew Tate was talking the starting role from him. Fact is Burris has sucked, cost is games. 6 games under 200 yards passing what type of MVP is that.

It's Tate time.

[Stay Golden]

Burris as far as i saw do not show true support to Tate by keeping his helmet on. Maybe i am reading too much into that but when I have seen any other QB CFL/NFL get yanked they remove the helmet sit on the bench and accept they were garbage that day.
NCAA its different because several teams it is a team rule. Helmet on at all times.

If Burris is a true leader he accepts the decision for the good of the team, I don't think he did.

Burris is a piece of work. Accept it you stunk again. The decision making and the simple passes he takes for granted and half ass lobs them.
Burris is too cozy even with the opposition.

Lets hope Tate is breathing down his back now.

One embarrassment in Toronto I had to see, now the Flames can make up for it tomorrow night

Uhh, really?

They had to make a long last second field goal to beat us last week.

So if the Stampeders play like they can, yes we can beat the Lions.

[Beerfest]

We are going to need to win our next 3 games and have some games go our way to host a playoff game (IMO)

Winning the West is pretty much out of the question now.
