Hamilton hopes to find offense in clash with CalgaryFootball Betting Lines07/07/2010 - Hamilton, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - After logging just 290 yards of total offense in the season opener last week, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats try to put together a more collective offensive effort this weekend as they host the Calgary Stampeders at Ivor Wynne Stadium. Last week it appeared as though the Ti-Cats were going to have their way with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, as they opened the meeting with a 93-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, yet even an 8-0 advantage just moments into the contest failed to stand up and the team eventually bowed by 20 points on the road, 49-29. Kevin Glenn handled most of the quarterback duties for Hamilton, but he completed just half of his 30 pass attempts for 197 yards and a score, to go along with being sacked five times and tossing an interception along the way. Glenn also had the longest run of the game for the Ti-Cats with a 22-yard burst, yet the squad still finished with a mere 94 yards on the ground. The Hamilton defense did manage to come up with four sacks and a pair of turnovers, but those did little to offset the fact that the unit also allowed a whopping 502 yards to the Bombers on the road. In the case of the Stampeders, a team that placed second in the league last year in kicking points with 176, they once again saw the need for such an attack as Rob Maver booted a total of five field goals in his CFL debut, resulting in a 30-16 win over Toronto at home. Quarterback Henry Burris, the league's second-leading yardage producer at the position a season ago with more than 4,800 yards, managed to put Maver in position to make all of those successful kicks as he connected on 27-of-40 pass attempts for 324 yards, yet he failed to toss a single TD, was sacked twice and intercepted once. Burris finished second on the squad with his 45 yards rushing, with most of the damage on the ground being done by Joffrey Reynolds who carried the ball 17 times for a game-high 116 yards and a score. The effort by Reynolds is nothing new, considering he led the league in rushing in 2009 with his 1,504 yards and was also one of the CFL leaders in touchdowns with 13 overall. With six straight seasons of at least 4,200 yards passing under his belt, Burris has been wildly successful since arriving from Temple University, and the Oklahoma native is hoping to bounce back from what was, by his standards, a sub par 2009 when his 22 TD passes represented a success rate of just 3.9 percent based on his number of overall attempts. That ratio was the lowest for Burris, who needs one more passing score to reach 200 for his career, since 1998 when he was used very sparingly in Calgary and failed to post a single TD strike on 11 attempts. Reynolds averaged an impressive 6.4 yards per carry last season and has rattled off five straight campaigns in which he has gained no less than 1,200 yards, is somewhat of a rarity given how the running attack takes a back seat to the passing game on oversized Canadian fields. Nevertheless Reynolds, who is now in his seventh season, uses his ability carrying the ball to also set up plenty of opportunities to come out of the backfield and gather passes as well, having logged more than 1,600 yards and eight touchdowns in his career via the pass. Reynolds might be a huge piece of the puzzle for the Stamps this weekend, seeing as how Hamilton trotted out one of the strongest pass defenses in the league a year ago, one that allowed foes to complete 59.1 percent of their aerial attempts. While that might sound like a high rate, consider that it was still second-best in the league behind only Montreal, the reigning Grey Cup champs. The area in which the Tiger-Cats need more emphasis is on getting to the quarterback, the group posting only 36 such takedowns a year ago. Khari Long, who posted 10 of those sacks, got off to a slow start this season with just two total tackles in the opening game. Last season these two squads split a pair of meetings, with each winning on their home field. In the middle of September, Hamilton captured a 24-17 win, followed a couple weeks later by a narrow 15-14 triumph for the Stampeders. As a result, the all-time regular-season series now stands at 48-29 in favor of Calgary. Seeing as how the Hamilton defense was exploited by both the run and the pass in the season opener, there's no reason to think the Stampeders cannot do the same against the club again this weekend, even if Calgary is out on the road for this meeting. Reynolds will certainly chip in by changing up the pace and odds are Burris will easily reach his milestone touchdown pass early on and then cruise for the squad.
