There was horrible officiating all around in that game. The PI on the challenge, the hold on the Reilly touchdown run, the fiasco with the horse collar and the phantom penalty, and of course the “contacting” the kicker penalty on Long. Just awful.

I believe that Jones is a better coverage safety than loffler. Just not as good at tackling or hitting.

Andrew Harris (forgot to press post for him last week and got a strike )

We can't honestly be surprised about Neufeld being hurt. He's better suited to be a 6th O-linemen or utility man at this stage. Relying on him to stay healthy all year would be fools gold.

It absolutely is. He's better than Carmicheal or Macho Harris, but he's still by far the weakest link we have back there. The only positive thing is, he's just a placeholder until Leggett is fully healthy regardless.

I thought Nichols should’ve been the MOP last year before he got hurt. But, if Streveler keeps playing the way he is, I’m not sure you can take this guy off the field.

Dresseler is still a much better and more valuable player than Bowman in my opinion. With that being said, I wouldn’t replace anyone on our O. The only thing I would like to see is Flanders get on the roster as a DI to utilize those two back sets.

Those call backs were also on very questionable penalties.

The Rider O wasn't impressive last week I can't imagine they'll be better by moving Carter to defense. That's a curious and odd move in my mind.

This case will be quickly dismissed. That moron got exactly what he deserved and the law won't punish Young.

I’m still wondering, is Flanders legitimately hurt? The two back set would cause a lot of problems with a mobile QB. Not to mention that Lankford is a waste of a roster spot.

Is it just me or was it crazy to go for two when our O hadn’t been on the field in hours?

That penalty on Hardrick was terrible.. these new rule changes regarding blocking really aren’t football.

What a start! I hope this is a repeat of the Hamilton game.

Randle has been terrible today.

Andrew Harris baby

Fogg is at Corner and Alexander is at HB or is that just a misprint? Did Flanders get hurt?

That's something best left hidden under the rug...

I like it, I feel like he has the higher ceiling. Could he implode? Possibly. But, Ross looks like Alex Brink 2.0. Take the chance and go with the guy who can potentially keep this offence afloat long-term.

I've expressed concerns about the inability of O'Shea to make roster changes many of times. But, in what world are Jones and the Riders doing a better job than Walters and O'Shea? We've been better than the Riders every year they've had Jones, and Saskatchewan is on their third starting QB in three years. They're relying on Zach Collaros who's suffering from some serious Drew Willy PTSD. I would never change our situation or management or coaching staff for the Rider's in a million years.

I meant on the injured list. No sacrificing involved. It really is a shame he wouldn't accept the P.R. position, but I don't blame him. I'm sure he'll be picked up soon.

That's half the fun of being on a message board isn't it? In all seriousness, it's all in good fun. I think you're the poster who brings up to me that I was a bigger fan of Crompton than Nichols when we first traded for Nichols. It's interesting to see when you're right, and when you're very, very wrong.

I mean, if you look at the personal insults you were (and are) throwing, when you were absolutely and completely wrong it's well worth it.

Yup. The Jets primarily I think really hurt our sales. Missing (what should be) the league MOP and having to play unknowns at QB also doesn't bring in a ton of optimism in terms of the walk up crowd on a Thursday night either.

Medlock is also a highly paid import kicker coming off a subpar year. It would've been nice to hide FMB on the six game throughout the season.
