sweep the leg

but only one TD drive given up. D and O weren't the reasons this game was a loss, it's all on the special teams gaffes and the penalties. Exactly. Points allowed is the biggest stat of all.

D only gave up 107 yards passing and 14 points. ST's and a lack of discipline cost us this game.

Never had you pegged as a football groupie...

I think Morley has been very good at safety. Edit: By safety I meant Centre...

What a strange comparison.

Holy crap did we dodge a bullet with Burris. I hope everyone remembers how I kept saying what a terrible idea signing him would have been... That was one of the worst football games I've ever seen. This season as a whole has been pretty underwhelming.

On the Rider front, I just saw that Getzlaf is questionable for this weekend.

Just saw a tweet from CFL News that says a deal to move the Argos to BMO field is almost complete.

That is a pretty understanding/nice move by O'Shea.

Eskimos are massively overrated. Their defence is pretty good but their offence truly stinks. That sounds like a better description of the Riders, & I don't just say that b/c you're a Riders fan. Relying solely on the run won't work, imo, against the Stamps or Esks. Their passing game has to improve to beat either of those teams. The Esks offense hasn't been that bad. Not great, but not terrible either.

Calgary is the best team, but Edmonton is right there with them. The first game was very close, and the Esks were without their starting qb for the 2nd game. The Riders have to sit in 3rd until we see them play one of the top two teams.

What?

It's Rider Stronson from riderfans.com.

No worries, that certainly isn't a Sask. original, borrowed from the Packers, Raiders, Bengals, etc. Definitely not as original as #WinnipegStrong... wherever that went... When was that used?

I think Fraser's been pretty good so far.

Give me a break... we're talking Bob Irving here, not Lawless or Friesen. You don't think it was a vague, speculative tweet?

That's one tough customer you don't want to screw around with. He'll show you what's up pretty quick, especially when it comes to banned substances. He punishment of Jim Irsay was swift and severe...

It's insanity that you can lose a full season for smoking pot. The NFL is too high & mighty in it's quest for purity. If he'd beaten his wife unconscious to release his stress, he'd be back by week 3.

Couple new starters on the line in a building where they can't hear each other...what could go wrong?

I hate the idea of expansion, but the league has pretty much set themselves up for it with the change in divisions. I'm sure they don't plan on having unbalanced divisions forever. There will be a lot of new NHL jobs opening up. I played a bit of Junior 20 years ago. Maybe I still have a chance?

It's good for him. It's bad for the rest of us now b/c now, assuming he doesn't play, we'll have to see 10k closeups of him on the Rider sidelines during the game this weekend.

Other than being a nice guy, which I have first hand experience is very much true, do we know if he was actually good at his job or not?

It will unquestionably be the worst case scenario.
