Just terrible play calling. Powell is ripping up the Rider defense and on both stalled drives they got away from Powell on first down forcing the Red Blacks to pass on second and long.. I get keeping the defense honest but make them stop Powell first before getting too cute.

Really hoping Petan can put it all together. He has great offensive instincts and is already one of the best passers on this hockey club. Routing for the guy!

If Tate was playing i'd say Ottawa could pull of a squeaker at home but with Lindley at the helm I just don't see it happening.

So terrible to hear about Hefneys health issues, another GREAT Bombers play who flew under the radar. He was super talented and was always in the position to make a great play whether it was an INT, pass knock down, tackle, fumble recovery much like Leggett is now. Happy he got to retire a Bomber and I hope he lives a long productive life.

5 point night for Laine.. 4 points for Scheifele.. It's going to be a big year for these two! We certainly won't have problems putting the puck into the night.

I could be mistaken but I think this is basically what happened -- he was looking like one of the best DBs in TC for the Riders, then he got an offer from the Ravens so the Riders released him, then he got hurt and the Riders didn't want to bring him back because he was also still looking towards NFL options, then he went to the Jets for a tryout, then the Cowboys, and now he's back here.
Keep in mind, we also wanted Bingham before the Riders signed him too but apparently the Riders managed to get him on their neg list before we did - I believe he attended a joint tryout.
Awesome! I see he's also a 4.3 man. Lots of speed. I just looked up an interview of him before the NFL draft.. Guess who he said was the toughest player he ever played against..? Current CFL reciever Duke Williams!

But how can this be? Riders aren't number one.. At 6-6 they're surely the most superior team in the CFL ( well according to some rider fans that is)

It's tough to beat a team that does not turn the ball over and is disciplined
They didn't look disciplined against the Riders. They took a few stupid penalties.. But yes they don't typically turn the ball over a lot, they're defense is really good , ST's on par with us and can't count out Bo or Messam.. Just a really well balanced team.

Our d-line still concerns me. Powell probably would have had 200 yards if the game was closer. Poop needs to get back in there, not sure what the hell is going on with that. We also lack that outside QB destroyer. Westerman had his moments but we really lack that big play guy on the outside that gets to/disrupts the QB with regularity.
What if I told you Westerman was one sack away from being tied for the sack lead in the CFL.. He was doing his job just fine!

I'd like to see a little more consistency in his game. He has made an impact in 3 out of the 7 games he has played in.... but in the other 4 he struggled to gain 2 or 3 yards per carry. You could argue it's a lack of opportunity but if he is not producing then the coaches are not at fault. A guy like Flanders isn't going to get 10 touches just to get going. He needs to produce every time he touches the ball. While I do like Flanders, the spotlight is now on him to perform because we let Thorpe go in order to keep him. Earn that spot.
Consistency? He's averaging 5.7 yards per carry with only a long of 18 so it's not like he had a big run and his average is inflated. He also averages just under 11 yards out of the back field which is great for a running back. Again the guy is just a play maker and as much as there wasn't really room for him he earned his touches.

I think there's really a good case to be made for Andrew Harris or Matt Nichols to win it this year.. Who else around the league has a shot?
