Nichols will be our starter this year 100% ... next year 75% ... but if the year after comes and Streveler is still doing what he’s doing ... then you have to move on from Nichols. Have to. Can’t expect Streveler to re-up and bypass NFL deals if you’re not going to give him starter dollars. Keep in mind ... this is a guy that turned down legitimate NFL offers to come here. We will have to open the wallet up for that to happen a second time.

My favorite part was after Streveler took that big hit, he got up in the face of one of the Als D (younger Westerman I think) and was talkin smack. Love it.

Streveler will start for us one day. He is for real.

Really though, this boils down to Chris Jones always thinking he's the smartest guy in the room instead of just making the reasonably intelligent move. Right from year one. I remember saying keeping Durant was foolish in the first year of his tenure in Sask ... should've gotten Trevor Harris, considering Durant had at most a year left (ended up being 0 years left) and it made no sense going into year two of a rebuild with a new QB. Look at their roster. it's bad. A wide receiver playing corner. Dressing 9 defensive linemen, then running play after play where you rush ONE. A rotating audition at RG when your QB is getting killed. Running back position is a revolving door of mentally unstable NFL washouts. Sam Hurl at middle linebacker. No Canadian depth in any real relevant position (I mean come on, Makana Henry?) So many moves that no other staff in the league would allow to happen.

Watching the game right now ... Carter is pitiful on the corner. Absolutely pitiful. You have to question any roster decision where you essentially bench a top 10 receiver in the league in order to get a below replacement level DB on the field. That being said, I wouldn't want that idiot anywhere near our team. Very Muamba-esque in the sense that there's probably a big reason he only plays for losers. Rider D notably better when it's Eguovean (whatever) in the middle with Judge at WIL, as opposed to Hurl in the middle and that alphabet guy at WIL. Another questionable decision - cutting Travis Bond so you can essentially hold an audition at his spot two games into the year? LOL are they seriously rotating Bladek and this American pylon? Wow. Collaros hurt is a shame ... for Collaros. Don't care about Rider Nation after what they had to say about Nichols getting hurt.

I'm going to roll with ... Andrew Harris

Travis Bond was great here, he was going to be great in Saskatchewan and he'll be great in Edmonton. Riderfans, for the most part, is full of idiots and I feel as if I've become a happier person since I stopped going over there to read their insanity.

He must have been totally hammered

Craigslist missed connections is that way —->

This is one of those things people are going to use to harp on you about how you make too many threads. This could easily fit in any post game discussion thread. You haven’t even created anything of substance here. You have four sentences, one fact and one thought. I’ll share my thoughts though, since I don’t feel like being the guy who comes in here just to tell you what a grave mistake you’ve made ... our D looked predictable and unfortunately, it was being outcoached that did us in from what I saw ... didn’t catch the whole game, but I saw the end and it’s a classic case of being far too predictable in your schemes and trying to go to the well too many times. Might work against a Streveler ... not against a Reilly

I’ll give them a game or two leeway to gel, but if we waste the immense level of talent we have on D by allowing Richie to be Richie ...

I’m loving it ... had to jet to work but I’m sure I’ll catch the end of the 4th quarter when I’m off at 7 this morning.

Today is the beginning of the STREVELER ERA Bombers by 370 Streveler goes 5 for 6 for 13 yards and 5 TDs, rushes for 289 yards on 14 carries and the Bombers set a CFL record with 5 different players carrying the ball 10+ times, including Jake Thomas as a fullback.

I mean ... seems pretty fair. Nichols being out could be a huge loss for us that makes it impossible for us to catch the top 2.

their last names

I’d personally like to see Bryant in and Lankford out.

I’m assuming Foketi and Bryant sit?

Wilder Jr

I’m just going to start posting again. You’re all welcome. 😘

But that’s where it comes down to recognizing what you’re scouting for as a team. Why bring in a guy if he’s not going to supplant a veteran and his best shot is a role you know he won’t accept? i mean, from what we can see (which obviously isn’t everything) he couldn’t really have done much more in camp.

I want to see where Lankford ends up, hoping it’s not on the active roster. Something has to give between him and Thompkins.

Surprised yet not that Myles White got cut. Was hoping he'd pan out but he didn't look like the stud he was pumped up to be in camp.

Looks like I'm going to be able to make it with my schedule - just wondering if anyone has unused ones I can buy before I check Ticketmaster. Let me know .. I'd prefer lower bowl for my dad, but I also don't think we're in the market for the elite priced seats. You can PM me with any tickets you have for sale. Not looking for a deal. Thanks!

This may be what I need to finally get rid of cable.

I'd rather we not win a single game this year than welcome that ****ing loser back to this franchise.
