The OL was really hit and miss. They either did a decent job or they were horribly beaten.

What I see from the refs and the review process is that they are playing it "safe" in their calls. They are not having the conviction to make calls on the field that can be reviewed trusting the review process to get it right for them. Which is bunk because the review doesn't always have good angles. It's like they're reffing afraid of making a mistake, which leads to a lot of mistakes.

some of you people really need to lighten up and stop being so damned reactionary. Take a step back, take a deep breath, actually look at things logically and then maybe you can stop this nonsense like insinuating that Willy is the problem. This team simply can not deal with the injuries we have right now, in particular Moore. Our group of receivers are just not dangerous being down our best one.

I don't think the pressure is getting to him. If I was him, and if someone in the media puts out there that I said something I never said, I'd be angry as well. and since the tweet was deleted, pretty much tells me the media guy was WRONG. Exactly. The fact that he wasn't willing to stand by his comments says all that needs to be said. Actually the other part of the bit with O'Shea was how Bob sounded in response to O'Shea being angry at the situation, I suspect someone got a talking to about biting the hand that feeds.

Moore especially is a big loss that I don't think is talked about enough. It really is telling that the slump really has coincided with all the games he has missed. The depth at receiver is just brutal and we can't get by without out best guy.

He obviously should have called the plays that the Esks couldn't stop! what a moran.

and what exactly did Doege show that makes you think that he knows how any better? He was crap as well and almost got a receiver killed on a meaningless play. Both qbs stank out loud and they both had the same problems. Telegraphing throws, no accuracy. My opinion is this: They determined that Sunseri was the better player which is why he was the backup, it would be incredibly stupid to try and switch course now. The only course of action until Durant is healthy is to stick with Sunseri and support him and give him all the rope he needs.

Cause really how much can be said about Devin Tyler? Threads being derailed isn't always a bad thing, sometimes a discussion runs it course and a new discussion can spin off.

it's not over until they lose to BC. That's the one that is really key.

That bye week was way too long, it's good to be able to talk some bombers again after this place seemingly became riderfans pt2.

Cortez is a great OC but he is stubborn as hell. He is doing very little to help the young QBs. Not using Dressler until the 3rd quarter is on the OC. he tried to get a running game going to give the young qb help but the OL got absolutely owned and the run game got nothing. That's the issue here, teams know that if they take away the run the young qb can't beat you with his arm, it's not going to get any better either. Sunseri fluked out the win against Ottawa because of one big play by Dressler, you take that away and the rider offense had nothing.

The thing that really blows my mind is the decision to pull Sunseri and put in Doege. Nothing like good old desperation to ruin your young qbs confidence. Now if they go back to him next game he's looking over his shoulder every time they don't connect on a play wondering when the hook is coming. The fact that Doege was no better and probably worse (at least Sunseri wasn't throwing suicide passes to receivers) just makes it all the more LOL worthy. Shame the Bombers gassed their matchups against this team because the state they're in right now is not good at all.

No expansion team was ever going to be a competitive team. Just not in the cards unless their GM is some kind of brilliant genius at recruiting american players (which obviously Desjardins is not) The big problem for them is that Desjardins thought that all he needed was a qb, that arrogance led to setting expectations higher.

That Ottawa team is just all sorts of bad. They got a lot more problems that just a qb.

with all the ways you can score in the CFL it takes a real special piece of incompetence to get shut out. Looks good on that team, though I hate to see the Esks do it, they're every bit as arrogant.

now he gets his receiver killed, man oh man why did they ever go away from sunseri?

Rookie qb problems. There were a lot of people here tried to tell the rider fans that this would happen, teams would be able to shut down the running game and the passing game wouldn't be able to make them change that strategy but nope they wouldn't listen.

holding cause they're getting absolutely owned by the esks front.

but I'm confused, we were assured that Sunseri was better than Willy and the Riders would be fine with him! afterall, he was great last week!

Esks loss helps the Bombers more, but Riders getting spanked provides tears from rider fans which is always fun. Honestly I think the focus for the Bombers should be BC anyway so this game doesn't really matter too much.

???Seems pretty one sided to me,Jacquie? Moist calls going against the Shmoes.You don't agree?look pretty dry to me... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Every time Glen Suitor makes excuses by saying the Riders haven't had many possessions I want to kick a puppy. They haven't had many opportunities cause he can't get first downs when he does have the ball dumbass!

Tito Puente has been over throwing everything deep all night, was only a matter of time til they got one picked

Foley is such a piece of ****.

They're not even making him work for those rushing yards. The great irony here is that an Esks loss helps the Bombers a lot more.
