[zamler]

How does that cheap shot on Glenn go uncalled? What in the living **** kinda crap is that?

Well i think it's over! Kevin Glenn's offense not doing anything all game so i can't see him scoring 4 TD late in this game. Defense just collapsed..that's what happens when they spent more time on the field than catching up their breath on the sideline.

[zamler]

I feel sorry for Glenn. He absolutely gets pasted, and on the next play throws a great strike that is promptly dropped by butter fingers "what does clutch mean" Forzani.

[Flickered Flame]

Tough way to go into the bye week as well and coming out of the bye they head to Hamilton, where they never win.

Yes I agree he's been terrible but cutting the guy will not do anything good. The guy is fast and just need his confidence back. You cut him and you'll see the rival team picking him up so quick.

[OzSome]

I think Huf should give Glenn one or two more possessions and if Stamps still not scoring, time to put in Bo Levi Mitchell to get some playing time.

[zamler]

I thought the Stamps should have gambled on that 3rd and 2, especially since the D is completely gassed.

[OzSome]

Plain and simple...Lions deserves this win. We cannot blame too many mistakes on this game and too many stupid unnecessary penalties. Lulay and his offense really did a number on the Stamps' tired defense. They control the game all night and made Stamps' defense stayed too long in the game. Stamps defense played well early in the game but our offense are a disappointment. The only offensive player who showed up for the Stamps is Nik Lewis. Running play are just non-existent.

What a disappointing lost! I think that 3rd down gamble really took the game because after that turnover lost, Stamps just didn't answer back.

[browna]

Forzani's drops, especially that fumble which would've had the Stamps 7 yards out from being only 7 points down, killed them. Pathetic. Instead, it goes the other way and Calgary's down by 21.

He, like Cornish, seem to think they have it made after decent previous seasons last year and can just cruise. Again, Cornish flips out after a good run gets called back on a holding penalty (the only reason he made the corner).

Both need a kick in the butt.

Walking home.from the game... BC was far better. Lulay was outstanding.

Forzani and.Cornish need to start worrying about their jobs.

Pathetic crowd tonight

All the rowdy people are at the Folk Festival.

Glenn - some overthrows early in the game. He really wasn't on his game.

Cornish - As bad as the o-line is at run-blocking he is not getting ANYTHING, nothing, needs a wakeup call. Coker starts next game.

O-line - Decent pass protection but boys run-blocking is pathetic.

Forzani - If he wasn't a Canadian, he'd be cut by now. Should be a scratch next game.

Lewis - One of two to show up, Thank God.

McDaniel - Pleasantly surprised by his play again.

Rest of the receiver? Who are they again?

Fraser had a horrible game, every time he was suppose to provide support he was nowhere near the play. Can't blame the game on D, they just got tired. Can't wait to see Raymond back in there tho.

The gamble on 3rd and 2 and the ball is setup of Franklin? really? this guy should not even be on the field let alone trying to avoid a turnover.

Dropped catches, fumbles, overthrows, penalties; that was the game yesterday.

With the bye week, expect roster changes for sure.

Move up Parker to start in place of Forzani, scratch him.
Start Coker, backup Cornish.
Start McCartney, backup Jackson.

Cornish tees off!

“We had a few good runs but look at the situations. Garbage time. We had the one and it was called back because of penalty. If I had that single one, I would have boosted my average to a much more respectable standards. I’m not even worried about it. It’s something that needs to be dealt with.

“In all honesty, I was very satisfied with my own performance. In light of everything that happened, I dealt with it. We had a 25-yard run called back. I dealt with it. If things don’t go the way you like them to, that’s football.

This is the fourth week we’ve had bad rushing. I was hurt for the first three. Coke was hurt for the first three. We played. You just have to keep on playing.”

Using injury as an excuse for the last 3 games?
Satisfied with his own performance? dealt with you run getting called back? you were fuming!
Worried about his average?

This guys is starting to get annoying. Oh Joff! you'd never hear these things from him.

[Forever Flames]

I'm getting really tired of this team.

Cornish has apologized this morning for his comments.

Who cares. He's thrown tantrums on the field (and that's just the cameras have caught) 4 of 5 weeks so far when he gets gang tackled or penalties (the only reasons he's getting that big gains). It's everyone's fault except his, and then he furthers that notion by spouting off like this and really coming off as a crybaby.

Don't really care too much about the stats, its the CFL, and games are pretty much won or lost on your passing game. Like the game a few weeks ago in MTL, and before that against Toronto, Calgary could've won that game without the running game doing any better, just not the timely mistakes the offense (Forzani yesterday) made...its more troubling about the attitude he has that he throws teammates under the bus publically.

As mentioned Renyolds was classy and never heard a peep about the O line or blocking being banged up if he got the ball 2 times a week or 20.

[Bertuzzied]

Forzani definitely cost us the game. Get rid of him!

Even last year when he was doing great Cornish seemed like a whiner. Time to put up or shut up.

Any chance Reynolds ever plays again for us?

Easy to see why Cornish is getting upset as the O-Line has been useless in opening holes and now he gets crap for not producing when it is not his fault but he does have to do a better job of controlling his emotions and hoping Huf can do something to improve the Line.

Game yesterday was as much Cornish dancing and cutting away from the holes as it was the line.

Book is out on him. I don't think he'll be a great feature back. A superb changeup guy, absolutely. But he won't be a guy to run between the tackles effectively
