Are you guys watching the Bronco game??????
What's the score?
-
I can see why Ottawa will be all over Alex Hall, their dline gets no pressure at all, and their DC doesn't know how to dial up a blitz. Hank is Hank but that defence let him down.
Hank played well but ended up turning into Frank with the game on the line.
Kudos to Tino for picking his game up. The kid looked great in the fourth quarter.
My Grandmother would have looked great with all the time he had to stand and throw to wide open receivers.
Is your Grandmother a free agent?

OTT season over , prolly over no matter what but , man you got to at least go down fighting not playing it safe.
Totally agree.
-
Cancel moral panic over divisions and how bad East is.
I'll still be pi$$ed if the Riders miss the playoffs with a better record then the second place team in the east.

The way that OT played off I wouldn't be boasting about anything if I was either team. Ottawa ****** up more than the Riders did in OT that's the bottom line.
Whatever. Rather win ugly then win pretty but maybe that's just me.

The lady now claims it was a misunderstanding. She never meant to take it... Sure.
C'mon now. You can't blame Pinball.

Ottawa had this game, saskatchewan had some help from the refs but still Ottawa needed one stop and that was on the convert. Get the convert stop and they win.
Yes, those pesky refs.
Ottawa pooched the dog in the second half and are full marks for the loss.
-
He's played four games. I almost find that hard to believe... Look at how crappy the Stamps are playing in Montreal. They're out of focus. I think they thought that this would be an easy game.
I sure hope the Bombers paid attention to the Calgary-Montreal game. Hamilton, Toronto and now even Montreal are playing much better.
CFL is getting very close. East is looking much better at the right time.
-
How the hell did this get about the Riders again?
Trolls were fed.
Maybe we can give the Rider fan his own forum so he can post ad nauseam about the history of message boards, the politics of message boards and his own message board career in an echo chamber. Seems to be what he/she wants. Then the rest of us can talk football.
You cry too much.
Pretty good bye week for the Bombers you should be in a better mood.
-
Crazy game.
Rider defence looked like crap and a typically bad ref job by Murphy.
Sunseri started to play decent in the second half. Good to see.
Touchdown catch by Dressler was a fantastic play.
Anyway, sometimes your team gets lucky and today the Riders were lucky.
-
Bowman dropped 4 catchable balls in this game, 2 that could have gone for TD's.
I swear that's the Bowman who was with the Bombers.
Yup, and the Riders before them. He's is so physically gifted but mentally soft at times. Looked like he was turning over a new leaf this season.
-
Eastern sweep this weekend? Would be nice ...
Doubt it. Calgary is going to have an easy time against Montreal.
The curse of the strip clubs may be in full effect.

The only reason Willy hasn't been hurt more often is because he is tough and we have been lucky. We have the most sacks in the league!
Willy is still a relatively inexperienced starter despite how well he's done. Willy will get even better at avoiding pressure and getting rid of the ball thus cutting down on sacks.
And just how many sacks do you think he can avoid with more experience if he still has the same O line?
That o-line will improve, get healthier and some new personnel. Willy has done an impressive job but all quarterbacks are guilty of contributing to sack counts at times. Bottom line? Wylie only makes the Bomber O-Line better.
You didn't answer my question. read it carefully.
Haha. You want an actual number? Ok. Uhm, anywhere from 7-10 a season.
Now that is stupidly funny.
Not really. Willy was always more prone to sacks then Durant (or most veteran quarterbacks) because of a lack of mobility and not getting rid of the ball. He has a quick release but holds on to the ball too much. He is a lot better this season but has a long ways to go. Now if you don't believe that some of the sacks have been caused by Willy that is "stupidly funny."

Pinball Clemons; victim of guaranteed win night?
-
Credit Ricky Ray for helping turn Owens into a weapon on offence, the likes that has not be seen in quite awhile.
Owens plays with so much heart. Unfortunately, it causes him to miss a lot of games.
-
Williams absolutely should have been ejected from last night's game, and ought to be fined and maybe even suspended for that deliberate intent to injure. It was completely dangerous.
And yes, Willy may well be the heir to Ricky Ray as the best pure quarterback in the league. If he put on 10-15 pounds of muscle, he would have the NFL all over him in a year or two.
For a 29-30 year old QB? Don't see it.
Yeah. Willy will be a solid starter but Ricky Ray? C'mon man!
-
What mfranc's posts tell me is that he's MASSIVELY underrated Ray. Ray is the best QB this league has seen since Flutie/Garcia/Dickenson. AINEC. The fact that people considered AC in his same level is laughable. As Suitor said last night, Ray is likely the most accurate passer in the leagues history. He's also done more with less than likely any other QB.
Ricky Ray will go down as a Top Five (maybe Top Three) quarterback. I am truly not underrating him. In fact, I rate him as the best QB presently playing. The fact remains is that he is not at the same level he was even two seasons ago.
-
still the best QB in the league and by a large margin, at that...
It really depends on Ray. He used to be much more consistent but now he will lay a big fat egg every now and again (second half of last year's EDF for example).Toronto's coming together at the right time. Should have beaten Calgary last week. Easily beat BC last night in BC. If they can stay relatively healthy the rest of the season, they will be hard to handle.
Well I think he is probably the best it certainly isn't by a wide margin anymore. When he's on he's darn near unbeatable but Ricky Ray has had his share of bed crappings in recent memory.
The margin might be wider now than it has been in quite a while truthfully. With no Calvillo and Burris being pretty washed up right now who is challenging him? Only Durant left as a proven guy and I know this will break your little Rider fan heart, but Ray is much better than Durant, and I say this as one of the few people around here who doesn't mindless **** on Durant just for being green.
Your condescension at times is more then a little annoying. Actually, Darian is but one of a few quarterbacks who are close to Ray's dominance level (remember, I do think Ray is the best). Mitchell, DD, and Reilly are not that far off and in a season or two Willy may be there as well.

Maybe if some posters on this board were a bit more dignified in their methods I wouldn't be "whining". This is classic coming from a "well your province really sucks" kind of mature poster like yourself.
Your whining about that is insufferable
Not my style. Unfortunately that seems to be more the approach of some of posters around here who are intent on stalking me over there and quoting me completely out of context.well if you don't like it why not scurry back to riderfans and whine about the poor mean Bomber fans?
I don't quite think I said that. I took issue with the fact that someone said Winnipeg was just regina with more people shitting in potted plants. Which is entirely untrue.
Plus you shouldn't have put quotes around whining since that is eaxtly what you're doing.
You trashed Regina, the rest of Saskatchewan, and then you (or somebody similar) started taking pot shots at Brandon.
Anyway, you are the last person who should be talking to me about posting etiquette.
Had someone pulled this crap on you, you would be equally as offended and you would have every right.

MOS is being loyal to Etch. That's how I see it. Publicly anyway.
Would you rather the head coach announce that his d coordinator is garbage and useless and that with him controlling the defense that we have no chance to win?
I thought people hated Burke for throwing players and other coaches under the bus yet now the fans demand it?
I want the club to handle the run defense issue quietly by adding players, changing schemes or if necessary let go of etch during the off season.
I would lose a tonne of respect for o Shea if he started spouting negative things to the media.
This is exactly right. How O'Shea handles this in the media and in the dressing room are likely two very different things.

Westerman would be a solid pickup. Quality National defensive lineman are worth their weight in gold.

Matty has had a hate on for the Riders forever.
Don't you guys ever get tired of conspiracies?
