The Stampeders had a chance from the 2-yard line to win with less than a minute to go in the game, but had to settle for a field-goal after backup quarterback Andrew Buckley was tackled for a loss on second down.
Dave Dickenson on 2nd and goal decision to have Buckley roll out: "I regret that call."

The decision not to give the ball to @JMessam on the two yard line with the game on the line looms large. The Marshawn moment.

Bo Levi Mitchell on 2nd and goal decision: "Ball's gotta be in my hands or (Messam's). That's how I feel." #CFL
