  1. Even when chungh was here the staff said Neufeld graded out better..not sure why he gets so much disrespect around here..
  2. I wouldn't trade Neufeld at all..that be the stupidest thing to do for several reasons..one he's one of the better guards in league...secondly he and Bryant are a well oiled unit..thirdly if we did and one of Gray or Speller go down we are hooped..not to mention a well respected locker room leader and what..maybe 30 this year so still young for olineman. You dont throw away solid Canadian depth ..when he is ready he is back starting and Gray and Speller battle it out for the starter and 6th spot
  3. Yeah I liked that too..also something about they are concerned with points on the board and if they are running for 150 yards they dont need the big passing numbers
  4. and that first year we took over we sucked and he had games where he put up over 30 points but we lost due to an atrocious defense...so his record could be even better..as well as his obvious playing hurt season last year where it really affected his play..
  5. Like I said...seems to have the makings of a good safety...even boundary corner with his closing speed and pretty sure tackling...perhaps with him and Jones on the roster is the reasoning why the coaching staff didn't seem too concerned with an extra import DB dressed as a DI. Jones btw way played the dime and did very well there too..
  6. LOL....Thanks...best thing I have read all day!!
  7. Maybe Reilly had a bad game because the defense made it bad for him...ever think of that?..if we didn't eff up those 2 back to back long ones he'd have had a very piddly night stat wise
  8. The team played smart...the run was there, so they used it and owned the TOP that game, and took the shots when they were there (3 TD passes attest to that) Look at BC...Forced the long ball game all game and sure you will win some shots every game, but without balance, or inflicting your will on a team with the capable horses (oline and runningback/schemes) you will lose more than you win.. I believe it was mentioned that after their 3rd quarter TD Reilly completed only 4 more passes the rest of the game...hardly a dissection of our defense
  9. IT'S FUNNY listening to a Rider fan say that a QB who doesn't turn the ball over (when not wounded)..has a winning percentage over past 4 years pushing .700 and has about a 3:1 TD to INT ratio is basically only successful because he has Andrew Harris more or less, and that basically we are what we are due to that....but if the shoe was on other foot they would be erecting monuments and trumpeting "their" guy as a world beater. Also funny that they claim they had/have the best defense when statistically it wasn't save for TD's scored and a few random categories and this year they claim they have the best RB and best RB depth as well as solid and deep O-line...yet they lost and looked like crap on offence in doing so...wouldn't logic say that a team with a better defense...better running back and deeper o-line should have won their game easily with anybody at QB just handing the ball off to Powell?...much like our inadequate QB doing here....hmmmm...seems like it should be so based on Rider logic
  10. I don't care...cause I will be dead...most likely also a lot of the issues with deaths and health follows how things were before...not so much now, but I guess without tests and proof and examining brains of guys playing and starting highschool/colleg/pro now we can't be certain..
  11. so Glenn turned down the Riders...thats funny and Glenn is a very smart man obviously who wants no part of that fiasco, as well as values his health as he'd get killed behind that o-line There very average tackles with Shepley/Clarke/Blake with Scram as the 6th next week is going to be god awful
  12. 31 and 14 is a bit more than moderately successful isn't it? Included ion there was when the team really sucked when he first started and his injury riddled last season especially the 4 game brain fart stretch
  13. I doubt this early in season that they would get too much of an extended break
  14. Fact of the matter..it was gonna happen if not in that game anyway even without the hit..or the next..guy is broken and cant take the hits anymore. And that was just a glancing blow from a shoulder..imagine if he got caught with a shot like Wilson took last night..he'd have been stretchered off the field. At least no other teams tweeted out "how's your QB situation looking now?" Like some team did last yr when a QB went down..who was that again?? Hate to see guys careers end..but his was inevitable and probably better now then taking a severe shot That being said..nice to see that team wallow around now a sputter and die a long painfull season..couldn't happen to a better self entitled fan base..let's see if they average 27k in stands when they suck like we did for yrs
  15. They couldn't stop Harris because the talent all around on our offense is better across the board than what BC has on defense...a direct result of paying Reilly..Chungh and Burnam about 1.2 million of your 5.4 million and change cap
  16. They dont even know what football is or could care less..and it's an inconvenient trek for a lot of casual fans out in the burbs..that's my take..same situ in T.O
  17. Back to the Hecht thing..like I said safety is the easiest position to field a player in Put a guy there who is smart..knows CFL football and plays within himself and the system and you will be fine. Also Reilly is probably the biggest test for your safety.. so if he was more than adequate in that game..well then we will be just fine..and obviously he has a bit of a fear factor ranging around out there as we saw with chik-a-fil Carter.. But that Exume is a heat seeking missile! If that's all he has to offer this year that's still a steal of a pick in 8th round..incredible closing speed on ball carriers and a sure tackler..can saw future safety in that kid
  18. It's all immigrants living around the city center to be honest..they need a new suburban area stadium
  19. No..because Collaeros wouldn't have been the difference.. and many say Nichols is a ham and Eggers.. wasnt it? And isnt it a team game.. and about depth? Which the riders have not much of..looking forward to seeing your oline next game..
  20. Stats wise you didnt have the best..you lead in a few categories but stamps and bombers led in more..and gave up leaa points..that says to me better defense.. only is sask is it considered the best..granted it scored al lot of TDs.. but that wont happen again
  21. Well u all over there say Powell is the best..and you guys have the best running backs.. so shouldn't u guys have won then too? Reilly had 100 yards on 2 busted plays in first half too..after that he disnt do much in 2nd half..barely over 100 yards..so picked apart is quite the stretch If your run game is working..u use it to death..btw..how many scores did Harria get..oh yeah none but Nichols tossed 3 tds..shows me a balance well greased offence as opposed to your pea shooter high school one..good luck getting 5 wins with that
  22. Gray sure gets undr guys skin...on several plays he was in second level pancacking guys..Speller too...and as usual Yoshi..love how he plays Our oline was damn good for first time together
  23. Couple first half thoughts.. Oline is doing just ..no issues Exume is a total ST stud Not liking the heavy dose of Thomas rotation..when he on we dont get nearly the push and disruption..30 percent of snaps is more than enough Nichols has made some plays that last year he couldn't.. obviously he was injured and not 100 percent healthy Wilson is doing just fine as a JSK replacement..showed food speed running down Burnham too
  24. Glad for Bennett but feel sorry for him doing to that mess..and be hard to root against him but dont want him to succeed..hence riders succeed...wonder if this means Collaros out a while???
