    Even if Macho is healthy keep him on the 6 week dl. We need the cap relief because chance are good Nichols reaches his bonuses. That gives the coaches more time to evaluate Lofler...I dont care how good he looks 2 games is not enough of a look...remember Shabaz? I don't know how you keep Randle or Adams out of the line up or who they replace. It is a good problem to have for once. Thank you Walters and the scouting staff.

    Loffler has more than proven himself IMO, Randle i agree is an upgrade over Roberts at this point but Roberts has shown promise. Dress, Adams and Smith will all be back. 

    My point is that i feel like things have been handed to incumbents way too easily on this team in the past, the fact that we've dipped into free agency this year clearly points out that the days of "He's good enough" are over.

  2. the Reality is there are a million different moving pieces on both teams. The last 3 weeks the guys we have playing were much better than the guys our opponents had playing. Regardless of injuries we should be happy and celebrate that.... on the other hand lets noth start the parade route just yet because I'm having a hard time seeing our boys intercept Trevor Harris or BLM 5 times....

    Nichols, Bond, Loffler, and Denmark are new starters rather than backups. 

    When they get healthy, Adams, Randle, Dressler and Smith at a minimum will get their jobs back from their backups.

    While i agree, this team has a next man up mentality and we aren't using injuries as an excuse anymore.

    Have the Bomber played better of late with their backups in? You bet they have. Have they done it against backup QB's, sub .500 teams and got bunches of turnovers? You bet they have. Them's the facts, but some folks only want to discuss the positive and call anyone who looks at both sides of the coin negative, like that's something bad. 

    why do you keep calling our guys backups? Out of the guys who came in i can only think of a few receivers and a couple olinemen who will replace the "backups".

    No, the Ridrs won't be firing Jones anytime soon. And yes, other fans want Jones to fail. Firstly, because they're our rivals, but maybe more importantly, because the guy is a dink, plain and simple. 

    His cavalier attitude and disrespect for anything/anybody not related to what he's doing is so me-me to be be over the top and is a model for Bizarro world sports teams.

    If there was a wrong approach to signing, trading, and evaluating, Jones and team have found it. 

    But, sooner or later, they will turn it around in Sask. and the insufferableness will reach new heights. That's where the angst comes in. Other team's fans want to get their shots in and enjoy the moment before the hoopin' and fiddlin' starts - especially in their new digs.

    Exactly, in my mind this Chris Jones led team will be forever tarnished with blatant cheating and disregard for the rules. Not unlike the New england Patriots.

    They've already beaten Reilly once, almost twice. 

    I think the Esks. are a team that will regain some of their form in the second half of the season and become a much tougher opponent going down the stretch,

    My thoughts exactly, i feel like their offence isnt firing on all cylinders but their defence has been atrocious all year

    I guess he would have been told that if he had gone through the proper channels. You guys live in your dream world if you want, but make no mistake Bomo was just trying to make the Riders look bad.  Do you honestly think he was just a good guy looking out for the betterment of the league?

    yeah he was "trying to make the riders look bad"... Like they don't do a good enough job of that themselves?

    He was a whistle blower

    Riders are the communist state of Russia 

    Chris Jones is Vladimir Putin.

    Taken out of context and submitted in a vacuum. 

    Yes, we beat two teams with back up QBs- that is all you offer.

    You fail to mention our decimated secondary, 2 rooks on Oline, decimated receiving corps (where we had to bring in a double cut vet). 

     

     

    Oh yeah,  AND our freaking BACK UP QB.

     

     

    Anyways- you are not wrong, just incomplete.

     

     

    ... and your argument would be valid if we had guys to replace them with...

    Willy will not replace Nichols so therefore- not a backup QB

    Macho Harris will not replace Loffler

    Fogg is staying

    Denmark is replacing whoever was in his position previously.

    Rooks on the Oline will not be replaced until they prove otherwise.

     

    As Oshea says durability is an ability.

  9. Our offence and defence both need to keep taking steps forward. One huge improvement is our Oline play. At halftime in the Calgary game we were averaging .5 ypc.... Calgary was averaging 8..... Drew Willy wasn't playing particularly good that game but IMO  that was the reason we lost that game.

    In his very first article with the WFC he wrote saying that was one of the conditions of this job.... he wanted to autonomy to write how he wants to write... a decent read if you can track it down...

    yes i love Ed'd writing, just an observation on how differently the two organizations are run.
