Booch

Ha...I got banned basically for saying "your just mad because your monma made you bring up your dirty dishes from the basement" to a poster who was arguing a post I made ...one based on facts by the way. That sites a joke chalk full of hypocritical fans ...a good majority lacking a lot of even general knowledge...there's a few good ones but for the most part seems like a bunch of pre-adolescent punks who need to grow up a little and realize the world doesn't revolve around the Riders...They are the one I guess who only seen the sporadic success over the last 10-15 years or so, and didn't get to see the decades upon decades of futility...save the rider campaigns and being perennial doormats

I bet Nichols is starting game 4 this year...just a hunch

No problem...thats the best footage tho to view everything..schemes..busts..etc...In camp and practices teams will film it that way too so they can properly review everything. I know when I played we had a dedicated guy in each stadium filming it

yeah the was a total B.S play....to be honest if I was a coach I would have laid into him good for that stupidity and the chance to come away with zero points...

the general public doesn't have access to that....not sure for the reason but league won't release it to anyone, but if you have a person on the iside you could probably get some footage from the teams

HA!! Yup more or less

First start...first look at live "real" game speed....didn't panic...didn't do the usual dumb rookie mistakes...less than optimal conditions..first time with first team starters...he did pretty good...and next game will be better as things slow down, and he finds his way. What I liked is he didn't just lock onto his primary read/look and set himself up for being picked easily, or allow defense to limit gains..You can see him going through progressions and 2nd and 3rd looks...some QB's in this league who have been here a while still aren't doing that...so the future looks good with him...and you can't discount his wheels and running ability...he's also built different than most QB's as well...so he can take some hits...on his one run he rocked the one DB and he was partly stunned from the hit..

29-15...Argos

pretty much every game there is a bust...or two...and huge impact plays that make a guy look inept and horrible...thats football. The two biggest plays in my opinion..The 2 point convert and the Walker Td were plays that if were to happen exactly again would or could go in our favor...and back and forth it goes...**** happens Hardly an indicator after one game...the first game with all the regulars that the scheme and personnel are suspect...give it 3-4 games first

yeah...he will only get better...Any raw rookie who can come in...produce 3 td's...and a field goal in less than ideal weather conditions definitely has earned some time to grow..if god forbid late in year he has to come in for reps here and there he should be that much better. Also watching from sidelines as Nichols works this offence under real conditions is going to help him immensely too....and be nice to see him run that cheetah after a short yardage play...unlike Lefovour trying to do it. Streveler comes from a no huddle offence so he will be able to manage that quite well with his game rep experience he will have gained

Was just one of those games...our defense will be fine..especially the run defense We gave up 80 yards last night in a game where running you think would be what a team would want to do condition wise We ran for 137..so I guess the Edmonton defense is brutally as bad and they will have no hope in hell winning a Cup...

was 408 yards....not sure where u got your number...and the Willy comment?..like really...do you take glee in being more or less a tool?

and the constant pressure he put on Reilly too...I don't think Hurl ever got as close to a QB as many times in his career here as Biggie did in one game alone

We don't flub that field goal and Lankford doesn't fumble...we win regardless of the defense in that game...I hope that the last we see of Lankford for a while..Fogg and others can do just fine on returns

Yeah when have we may have landed a good one in Strev's Agreed too..there were not any real instances of receievers just roaming free and wide open, and the bigger plays we got beat on were just good plays..and if it were to play again we make the play...I don't think this showing is anything to be panicked about..but if Montreal and Hamilton eat us up on defense..then we have issues...too much talent here to not be successful. I think too...you add Leggett to the mix...we just became even better and have another vet who knows the inside and out stuff of a CFL defensive backfired and what and when to do things. I will say tho that the coaches need to get off the Lankford love train. What he offers on returns we can get elsewhere on roster...or PR and have a player who could contribute moe than just returns...and that brutal fumble too...he hangs on we most likey get points...keep Reilly off the field from scoring and win that game warts and all One thing I'd like to mention...That Bighill stuff at the goal line onn Reilly where he went over the top...can you ever see Hurl doing that???...hahaa

Some thoughts...Firstly no sense to jump to judgement of doom and gloom due to loss as well as there wouldn't have been a reverse jump to judgment if we won...you have to give it a game or two, and ones where you don't stop and go with delays 2 times. Reilly will do what he did again to other teams as he has before to us and others..thats why he is League MVP. The defense wasn't that bad...on the first long TD Randle had great coverage and actually got toe tangled when he went to make a play on ball and fell..you couldn't ask for better coverage and it was a great all around play...as well as the 2 point convert...Gaitor had great position and was a phenominal play and one 9 times out of 10 that receiver wouldn't have made...luck sometimes goes against you. The defense will be good and when settled in...not an issue..Biggie although he Hurl'd it on one play made several plays that last years MLB could never dream of..and Reilly was his slimy greasy self and several of his escapes would have been sacks against anyone else. Streveler played good all things considered...first game...new to CFL..conditions and delays and put us in a spot to win...he will get better so future there is looking good. He's smart and guaranteed he will not make same mistakes again...and really the pick Sherritt got was a horshoe up the butt play too...not so much a QB error...Wolitowski too if more sesoned would have came back for the ball a bit more to attack it as opposed to let it come to him. Also I am not one of them "what if" type of guys but if Nichols was in there we win handily...he rips apart that secondary and the defense is off the field probably at least 5 mins less...if not more, as we would have controlled the game more and kept Reilly off the field...not to mention if Medlock didn't eff up that one FG the game is most likely tied or we possibly win...lots of positives and negatives to take out of the game. Lets reserve judgement until after the next 2 games where I would be shocked we aren't sitting at 2-1

You have to remember as well that Chris Jones...HC who won a Grey Cup was basically handed the keys to that and in no way shape or form orchestrated that roster one bit..he inherited it. As for his duties in Sask he inherited a right steaming pile of crap and could not have made things worse..tho he almost did and tarnished his rep with his cheating ways. But it appears in yr 3 they are regressing..no top notch Canadians..and paltry depth behind what they have. He has neglected an O-line..your teams back bone and has drafted ..and recruited/negotiated contracts poorly to sustain success and any have to cut guys who could help them..because he is robbing Peter to pay Paul..and it is looking like Paul isn't that good anyway. So the dumping on they get is warranted I think..

As did I for this very reason

What you all think of this?...sooo weak up the middle on defense...and the back-ups even worse And on offense...that line looks horrendous...If I was Bridge or Collaros I'd be shaking in my cleats...Worst center in league...atguably worst Import Rt tackle in the league...2 raw rookie at LT and raw rookie at RG...and there back-up is a knicked Bladek who looked overmatched and dumbfounded last year, as well as this year...yikes I also don't see how that receiving corp is considered so vaunted... https://d3ham790trbkqy.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2018/06/2018-Depth-Chart-Game-1-vs.-Toronto.pdf

I know Augustine does fairly well and that's good enough. Miller in on offence is pointless..no threat there to get ball..or do much with it if he did get it..so what's the point With Augustine in there u have an actual threat to deal with along with Harris..and Demski or Dressleer coming out of backfield

also a rookie kicker...A first yr left tackle and left guard...and no o-lineman of any nationality on their practice roster...how is that team considered to be fighting for top spot?

there are other options to do returns on the 46 man other than Lankford

Demski and Fogg would both be back together...Usually you have 2 guys there

as would myself

I'm sure we will actually....
