They got exposed 

He continues to get better and continues to reinforce that the Bombers should really try to stick with him and see where this goes. Completely changes the offensive potential.

She single?

This is who we send after THEIR long snapper ?

lay blame where it belongs...right at Lapo's feet...the game was lost in first quarter with his "i'm smarter than all and will trick everyone" schtick and pound Streveler (round peg) into a square hole (pocket passer)
What that was all about was mind boggling...first 2 series...not even a hint of run..allow SASK to get momentum and pin ears back and stifle us...total crap
You allow Strev to do what he does, and gradually massage in new wrinkles and do things from the pocket...thats when you outsmart people and catch them off guard..
 

Pick 6 be nice to seal it. 

Boy Steveler is settling into it now

What a terrible play call, execution and throw. 

Challenge for RTP there...late hit by Edem.

He hit him in the strike zone and left his feet when the QB had the ball on his hands
******* terrible

Pretty good result considering we had no O in first quarter.
O'Shea all over the line judge going off the field.

When you get holds your way and BS RTPs it helps 

The Riders are holding every play and we get that garbage call on a QB draw?? 
Awful officiating today. 

Lapo saved the good plays for the 2 possession deficit.

Happy to give up the 3 there.... 

Fake screen to post...wow misdirection works!

I think I'd start running Streveler.Loosen things up a bit

I hope to see a lot of Bomber fans out here today! Our hotel is packed with them. 
Have fun, be safe and don't, under any circumstances, drink Pilsner. 
Go Bombers! 

Gameday! Get ready for action!
I still get more excited about this game than almost any other one on the schedule, even though we get our asses kicked pretty much every year. The prospect of going into Regina and beating them on Labour Day just makes it feel like Christmas morning.
The Bombers have had 7 starting quarterbacks for the LDC in the last decade, including Chris Streveler today. Let's see what the kid can do.

Good luck guys and safe travels if anyone is on the road.  Be lots of football to talk about and argue about in the next couple weeks. Any thing can happen at labor day, we have all seen it many times before. 

Ummmm, I believe that they are commonly referred to as Rider fans.

I'm with you that the Bombers don't have a great recent track record finding import receivers. But, in fairness, both of those players mentioned were cut/traded by multiple CFL teams other than the Bombers. Montreal had Stafford around three times. Some players just don't fit with a team at a given time. Some need time to develop, and end up doing it elsewhere. It's not hockey where you can send a player to the Moose to develop. Matthews had two catches per game average. Not good enough, especially to justify a high'ish salary. 

This all boils down to one thing.You gotta catch the damn ball ! Way to many catchable balls on the turf.
