    Fans after a loss have a tendency to be pissed off. I wouldn't expect any Bomber fans to have any problem with either pass interference call involving Dressler but wouldn't be a big stretch to imagine that some Rider fans might have a problem with it. That late call was a big one.   

    Fair enough but iffy calls happen every single game. I cant even recall how many times over the last handful of years that weve been jobbed by a borderline call. Every team deals with it.

    Maybe Durant's brutal toss that was intercepted on our 2 decided the game, maybe he would have thrown another if he had gotten the ball back, maybe your kicker cost you the game, etc, etc. If ifs and buts were candies and nuts....1 penalty in the grand scheme of things isnt the sole reason for a loss is my point.

    I dont know why i sometimes go over to riderfans after a game.....yes i do, to watch them meltdown and cannibalize each-other. But today is a whole different animal. Apparently they outplayed us all game, the refs cost them the game, their kicker cost them the game, etc, etc.  One guy said the game wouldnt have even been close if their kicker made all of his kicks???? He left 7 points on the field. Unreal. Also, anyone who isnt a lemming and displays an alternate view of the game is a troll and told to f*** off. That place is like a whole other world full of likeminded, koolaid drinking, nutjob, conspiracy theorists that refuse to see the world in anything but green-colored glasses. Its quite amazing.......and frightening. After a few minutes there you begin to understand how the nazi movement swept over Germany.

  5. Loffler's Hit on Duron

    when I saw it I figured that Loffler went at Carter purely because the defence knew all they had to do was get Carter angry and he'd be useless the rest of the game, so when Loffler saw Carter had the ball and was going out of bounds it was the perfect opportunity to pop him and presto, Carter pretty much disappeared after that.

    I would say Johnny Adams also had a hand in that.

    Hmmmm I don't think thats true.

    Im being facetious of course but i sure remember reading a lot of pro Willy posts after losses when he was putting up lots of yards but making game crippling errors and not getting the job done when it counted. Now a lot of the same guys are negative towards Nichols when we win. Strange world we live in.

    You missed the point.  Point being.... Nichols has been very average the last couple 3 games now. Very very average. That's enough right now. He's also had games where the other team should have more interceptions but has dropped them. Bottom line.. the D and special teams had 6 takeaways... just like the week b4 the bye and we won by what? 14 points both games.... the O is not doing enough.  What the D and Special teams are doing is not sustainable. Eventually you need the O to put up more than 1 touchdown a game 

    Ok, so Nichols has been "average" lately with 2 rookie WR's, 1 WR who was watching from his couch 3 weeks ago, and a Jamie Stoddard clone. What the hell was Willy with our entire starting offence intact? Trash is the answer.

    I swear Nichols could win 19 games in a row, rescue 6 babies from a burning daycare, and defeat isis and some of you guys would still cry that he isnt doing enough. Ever think that the game flow/plan dictated his ultra conservative play by not forcing anything or taking chances deep and he did exactly what Lapo wanted on friday??

    Want a Saskatchewan win, to put some distance between us and the Eskimos...

    Ouch, that was a loud hit that Durant took on that 1st down run. Don't drop your head like that, man, you'll lose it.

    I think Durant is purposely trying to injure himself so he doesnt have to play.

    Gritty, smashmouth win against a VERY tough defence. Huge. Not pretty but grinded it out. Lets not forget were doing this with OUR TOP 3 WR'S OUT. If our defence keeps this up and we get Smith, Dressler, and Adams back....all of whom Nichols has shown chemistry with......:rolleyes: GIGGITY!

     

    Best stat line of the night:  Duron Carter 3/27!

    This.  The Argos should have cut bait and kept Harris.  In other news, the Titanic should have slowed down and not hit that iceberg.  These two events brought to you by "Why hindsight is 20-20".  

    But yeah, not sure what Toronto was thinking there.

    Not to mention Zach Collaros who the Argonauts released early in 2014 after failing to come to an agreement on a new contract. Within the last 2 years that makes 2 QB's, arguably in the top 5 in this league, that the Argos chose to let go in lieu of a 30 something Ricky Ray. Yikes.

    Rod Petersen is an absolute joke. The guy is nothing more than a Rider lackey that spews nothing but gang green garbage. Ive never seen a "journalist", and i use that term loosely, so biased and one-sided in my life. I cant believe he is taken seriously and that sports shows continue to interview him(H&L had him on this afternoon).  I wish they would stop. He's nothing more than a delusional Rider fan with a blog. I remember almost choking on my breakfast when i read before the season that he predicted the Riders to win the West with a 12-6 record :lol:. I also remember BLM and Petersen having a twitter war after BLM called him out on his laughable homer prediction. Time and time again he continues to make a fool of himself every time he opens his mouth.

    I swear, Nichols could go 39/40 for 450 Yards and 5 TD's and there would still be the usual 2 or 3 posters here that would say "he was ok but he did miss that 1 pass and the defence made it easy for him". Did he have his best game last night? Nope but we still won by a mile and his 2 TD passes to Denmark were more decisive and accurate than anything ive seen from Willy all year. The guy doesnt panic, exudes confidence, plays fast, goes through his reads, has the players believing in him, throws a nice deep ball, and most importantly does what it takes to WIN football games. Ive seen NONE of the above from Willy this year yet the usual suspects will pick pepper out of fly s**t when it comes to Nichols.
