Herslow reminds me of Acklin.  Weird, I thought Herslow was NAT DP, but he's just another IMP REC.  Looks like he'll have a long career here.

Cheater!   ;)  ;)

Ya, it was a fun one.  That much YDS & TDS always is entertaining.

P.S. Is there anything McManus can't do?  Holy smokes I'd love to see him in blue & gold.

Went flat on his back, head snapped back, back of head hit the turf, just like the QB concussion hits.  Kenny looked like he wanted to stay down, but team mates wouldn't let him.

Of course, many here will tell you, no way a hit like that can cause concussion  ::)  ::)  ::)

At least Kenny's not 39!

Well that ending was just nuts!  That should have been game over.  16s left.

I always do say BE BOLD.  TOR wasn't looking for just making it to the 40 for FG range... nope, that pass was deeper than it had to be.  The 2 DBs should have staggered their hits/tackles, as the baseball-esque collision is what caused the mayhem.  They were both in good position, one could have batted it down.

Looked like a Milt Special immaculate reception.  Actually worked out better they didn't get the TD, as 1 sec on the clock at a TD gives HAM a chance to return.  Their main returner is out, but you never know!

This almost was a repeat of the '23 WDF when the BC REC got tackled with zeros on clock when he should have been taking a knee for FG time.  That would have somehow been more satisfying, methinks.

Now we see why Scott was so mad when they blew the 2PAT.  Should have given it to Bell.  There was no HAM run game all day, which is strange.  I guess McManus just stops all runs all by himself.

What was up with that bogus DPI near the end?  I watched whatever they showed us (not much) and it was Kenny who started the hand fighting, and I saw no hint of impeding.  DBs are allowed to do the body-slow thing, basically rubbing up against them and keep them from getting full speed, or to their exact mark.

Would have been nice to see more about that.  If I was TOR I'd feel like that was a total homer ripoff.
