Relying solely on your exceptional god given physical talent once a professional, only gets you so far.

Make Clemons President!!!
Re: Hamilton Tiger-Cats
It'll be a huge challenge whether it's Ford and/or Dolegala. They're gonna need to coach and play their butts off just to tread water.Scooter McCray wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2026 1:13 pmRelying solely on your exceptional god given physical talent once a professional, only gets you so far.

They'll be fortunate if they can finish at .500.argolio wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2026 2:24 pmIt'll be a huge challenge whether it's Ford and/or Dolegala.

Re: Hamilton Tiger-Cats
Scotty M went another game under .500 on his CFL career coaching resume last game. They're going nowhere with that clown as HC, even if Bo had stayed healthy.ArgoRavi wrote: ↑Mon Jul 06, 2026 12:47 pmScott Milanovich was channeling his inner Leo Cahill last night with his alternating of QBs during the same possession.

The Ticats offensive brain-trust - like all other CFL teams' - have no clue how to deploy a big-time mobile, run threat QB like Ford; he is not going to win sitting in the pocket in an all-pass offence; just like a Danny Mac type was not going to lead a roll-out, QB run option / run heavy offence anywhere. Dolegala has proven over & over he is not good passing QB; - his pass last night right into a Bombers DB's arms was classic; Ford at least threw a deep shot that coulda been a TD but was dropped by superstar Kenny Lawler; lots of other CFL examples like Chris Strevler (who at least could run) or that stiff Morgan the Als deployed last year. Ford's passing arm is better than those 3 put together, and if he had a different passport he might get lots more chances to improve or sink or swim. Too bad Dinwid beat Scotty M to the punch in signing MBT - LOL.
Re: Hamilton Tiger-Cats
The Ticats have repatriated QB Harrison Frost from the UFL.

Hamilton Tre Ford is no different than Edmonton Tre Ford - the occasional moment of brilliance among many more moments of mediocrity.

Re: Hamilton Tiger-Cats
Some of his deep passes are truly awful. Arm punts is an accurate description. And we lost to him grrr.
Re: Hamilton Tiger-Cats
We had a dumb defensive game plan. You need to have a spy on him all game and dare him to throw down field. I remember Calgary used to do that against him with Cam Judge as the spy.paulwoods13 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 27, 2026 7:46 am

You are on the money again, AV! I would think that the book would be out on Tre Ford already across the league.AngeloV wrote: ↑Mon Jul 27, 2026 9:26 amWe had a dumb defensive game plan.
