Frustrating. You would think Khari Jones an ex-quarterback would know better
Exactly! Dont' blame it on Jennings. Give him a short route to throw. Can't believe a professional coach cant' see what the Argos are giving us and also taking away. Disgraceful!
Jones being shown up tonight. Horrible game plan and preparation when you were owned by this team last meeting.

Killer! What a time to take one and the refs to call one too.

Do we have any receiver on most pass plays running less than a 20 yard route?

Penalty agains the Lions. Why isn't there another play ? My understanding is that you can't end a quarter on a penalty

The 4th quarter has been great for the Lions this year. They could use a good one here.

Can we leave Adcock in Toronto? The guy is absolutely useless.

Anthony Allen has disappeared despite contributing earlier in the game. Nothing flashy but solid production; need that into the wind.

I was thinking same at first but Bazzie's OC was a dead ball foul so I don't think that applies in this case.

I mean, to take it to an extreme, what would happen if a flag was thrown for a dead ball foul after the officials had already marched the ball and the chains to the other end of the field for the start of Q4? They wouldn't bring it back and declare Q3 still in progress in that case. They didn't do it on Bazzie's call either.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Good kick by Leone. Defence need to hold them deep and force a punt
