9/10 times I’d agree. In this particular season, under these exact circumstances, no way am I risking Ford getting hurt as a returner right now. Agree on everything else. Another option could be Johnson off Chris Smith on. Then you could ditch Augustine for a game and get Hubert back in for DL depth.

Rewatching a bit tonight, I missed most of the first half for my kids birthday party. 5 minutes in and I’m already irritated at the commentary. I can’t express how much better the LDC was to watch with Lapo doing CC. Also, outside of a west final I’m not sure I’ve ever heard the stadium that loud on TV. Truly impressive. Props to all those who were there, big time.

on the plus side historic effort is more sustainable than historic turnovers. Historic effort = 2021 Historic turnovers = 2017

I can only speak for myself, but my ripping on 2024 HOF Inductee Nathan Rourke is 100% because of TSN’s stroking of him, nothing against the player himself.

Drew Edwards was good, despite being a Hammy guy. He and Dunk carried it in the beginning. That anonymous insider thing was the best they ever did. It’s not as bad now as say 2 or 3 years ago. At least now they have guys like Ben Grant who actually write analysis. There was a point where everything was either power rankings (the stupidest media creation of all time) or like “What positions would the Riders play if they were a hockey team?”

I thought it was a lost season as much as anyone on here, right through to the home and home with BC but now I don’t know. I’m actually getting a good feeling. What’s everyone’s thoughts on Edmonton? They actually worry me, they’ve got a lot of weapons, especially the run game. I think our secondary can handle them but if we dress 5/6 DL and they stick with the run it could get dicey.

It’s been a glorified Ticats and Riders site since day 1.

Speaking as someone who didn’t wear a helmet as a kid and got hit by a car in grade 6, your idea is a great one. Helmets are important.

I agree. Haba’s just not cutting it. With the smaller amount of linemen we dress especially, we need more out of that edge

I can’t argue any of that, especially the point about agents. It’s not out of the realm of possibility to suggest a club not wanting to help out a rival, but probably letting my imagination run away with me in regards to other teams going out of their way to stick it to anyone else.

If we’re just using him for what Strev did this year, the answer we’re looking for is Dustin Crum

All good points for sure, especially Arbuckle. I guess I’m stuck on the gamesmanship aspect of it. Especially in an undecided division, personally I wouldn’t give us a thing without a kings ransom coming back. If I was a GM, especially in the west, it’d be “Give me an elite starter, high draft pick or have fun with your rookie backup QB”

In the off-season I’d agree. I can’t see how or why Calgary (or anyone really) would do anything to help us in the middle of the season for as little return as a 5th rounder.

I’d take Powell in a vacuum but I think the Ticats would ask the world for a trade right now. Shiltz is probably the next best option, but again any team is gonna ask a lot .

Maybe the whole league

1. Ford- Could it really be anyone else? 2. Lawler- The difference maker on O today. 3. Brady- Nice work in the short game. HH - Lucky for a needed decent return and the jet sweep at the end. Second HH- The whole team for beating the Riders on my daughters third birthday. Turd 1- Miles Brown Turd 2- The league /TSN/Bell Media. Decided to not to simulcast the game on any of the 5 regular TSN channels, screwing over those who don’t have traditional cable. I could only watch the “enhanced data feed” with no pause or reverse capability. Do one thing right for 10 things wrong, typical Bell.

YES!

Watching him try to jump over the pile every time too

The most pathetic job they could have done on that second down.

I’ll be honest, if that jet sweep hadn’t worked I’d be shitting on them unbelievably hard right now lol

Neufeld ran up and put his foot right where the spot should be, ref marks it nearly a full yard back.

I thought that was 9 with the quick COD to funnel it the other way.

Nice quick read by Garbutt there

I don’t mind a 3 man rush to keep an extra DB on the field, but an actual DB, not Hallett. For every feel good ST play he makes, he’s a complete liability in coverage. They need to see his ceiling and use him appropriately.

Not to harp but 24-21 would look much better
