Alright i'll get the ball rolling.
I honestly like our chances. The Cats opened a 1 point favourite, and on the road thats basically a 4 point favourite on a neutral field.
Macbeth has been horrid lately - but we didnt get any pressure on Reilly. If we get pressure on Macbeth I love our chances.

They need to Run. The. Ball. Down. Their. Throats. Control the TOP, put the ball in the end zone, and don't let it come down to a FG to win.
The Defence is more than capable of stopping the blew team.

They should. Theyre better. Probably will. I can't seem to shake the skepticism, though.

I'm more confident that we beat Toronto Friday than I am next week against the Riders at home.
Toronto is so overrated.
We need to play strong both ways. Masoli will need to continue to play at the top of his game. D will be important. I hope Simoni isn't injured, knowing he only was a partial in practice yesterday.
I think we need to jump to an early lead. Get the Hamilton fans whipped up in a frenzy. Then don't look back!

MBT has been better than he has any reasonable expectation of being against the cats.
Reilly picked our D apart on Friday, they're gonna need to create some turnovers and get some of that swagger back if we're gonna do this thing.
That said, Masoli seems to be getting his timing back, and figured out how much speed Banks still has left. I like our chances, but i ain't puttin money down

Argos are not close to being the best team in the East, despite signing every possible FA or cast off. MBT does not scare me as a starting QB at all, although our D line does need to get in his face early and often. I think the Cats are going to be pumped up for this one.
And for the love of fluffy white kittens, DO NOT RUN THAT STUPID PREVENT D THIS GAME!!!
PS: kudos to whoever for creating this site, I'm so effin' sick of those other teams' fans.

Torn between:
A win is a win. Squeaker or ugly win is irrelevent. Get that home field and weeks rest.
Unconvincing win just invites more doubt and prolongs the ineveitable dissapointment.

Seems to me our only "convincing" wins are against OTT, EDM, and TOR, and Evans won the first game against MTL and the LDC. The team simply CANNOT continue with the second-half Offensive slumps any more. IMHO, the best Defence is keeping the other team's Offence off the field. For example, look at the dismantling of the RR-led blew team when we controlled the entire clock in a playoff game.

Cats should win Friday but the way they've been inconsistent this season it wouldn't surprise me if they shit the bed.

Anything less than a solid victory and this team hasn't improved one bit.

Tired of the whole "their destiny is in their own hands" thing when the team never steps up & seizes it.
They've got a chance to do so starting tomorrow. A convincing victory would go a long way toward persuading me that the last 3 weeks weren't just an average team beating on the league's doormats.
