Absolutely. But that doesn’t preclude us getting better and hitting our stride at the right time. I’ve got a good feeling about this team now that the cheerleaders are back!
Why can’t this team finish better than .500 at best? There has to be an FBI investigation on why the Ticats cannot get over that hump year after year after year…it doesn’t even happen by accident around here…
Still thinking we can finish 10-8 with an outside shot at 11-7. Don’t think we will beat Ottawa twice. So maybe this is the year we crack the .500 barrier?
June divides the season into 3rds
2-4 after the first third
4-2 in the second 3rd
We are an average team that has the potential to be very good. The last 6 games will reveal it all.
We can also call the Cats a team that is 2:00 away from greatness.
When you look closer at the 2-5 record against teams ahead of us.
The 5 losses involve 3 teams. Against each of those teams we were one play away from beating them.
Cgy - 2:05 remain. Down by 6. 1st and 10. We throw a pick.
Sask - :40 remaining. Down by 5. 1st and 10. Turnover on downs.
Ott - :27 remaining. Down by 6. First and 10. Surrender 2 sacks.
When we find a way to make those late game possessions into game winning drives we become tied for greatness with Cgy at 9-3 while Sask and Ott become mediocre at 6-6.
For fun, throw in the Bomber game…
1:13 remaining. Down by 6. 1st and 10. 2 procedure penalties.
So in 4 of our 6 losses, we have had possession of the ball, 1st and 10 with enough time on the clock to score a game winning TD. The great teams will turn those possessions into scores. We are 2:00 minutes away from greatness and 3 teams ahead of us are only 2:00 minutes better than mediocre.
