Despite top offence, coach Steinauer says Ticats defence is 'heartbeat of our team’ Globe_Sports

Hamilton Tiger-Cats head coach Orlondo Steinauer is surrounded by his players as practice ends during the CFL's Grey Cup week in Calgary, Wednesday, Nov. 20, 2019.The Hamilton Tiger-Cats have racked up an impressive offensive record in 2019, but the team’s head coach says it’s the defence that has become the “heartbeat” of team.

Hamilton bolstered the defensive line in the off-season with the free agent signing of Ja’Gared Davis, who spent three previous seasons with the Calgary Stampeders and won a Grey Cup ring last year. “It’s not close if you really watch film about it. There’s a lot of great defensive ends in the league, but you’ve got pass rushers, you’ve got guys who do other things, but what makes Ja’Gared so great is he’s a football player who plays defensive end,” Lawrence said.“He can rush the passer, he can stop the run. I mean it’s not close.”
