A lot of the angst over Bowman's lack of production is just the result of him not being targeted. Adams is Nichols favorite receiver. That is not going to change. He is even being thrown to when other receivers are open. The last couple of years there was a lot of hate on this board against Denmark -"He's invisible"... "He can't get open" was a common refrain. Well, many times the issue was that he was not targetted. Bowman, by my count, had 2 balls thrown his way on Saturday. One he should have caught. The other was 2 feet in front of him. Let's relax and give him a few more games. If Dressler or Adams gets injured, we might see Bowmans value increase.

Tabbies are for real. Hamilton by 20.

Yes that is the way things are done today. I am going to generalize here, but it seems that in the past, too often, these kinds of things were swept under the rug. But in today's world you are often guilty before a trial. I suspect that the Redblacks do not want the PR nightmare that keeping this guy on the roster till his conviction or acquittal would bring. So it is just easier to cut him now. (Just to give some context to my comments I do work with guys who have come out of the prison system.)

Yes, I say the Riders lose BIG in kitty cat land on Thursday... ...and with a Rider loss I will finally start to feel a little better after that debacle we witnessed on Saturday night.

You mean hot like after a Rider loss??

Estevan...has the highest income per capita in Canada some more Saskatchewan trivia... (if I keep this up somebody may accuse me of being a Rider fan...may it never be!)

Yellow Grass...town where the hottest temperature ever recorded in Canada was...I believe it was 113 Fahrenheit just a bit of Saskatchewan trivia for ya

I went with Ottawa over Calgary, just because I want Calgary to lose.

Andrew Harris...

Maybe Macadoo is Bombers version of Ritchie Hall, but I think Riders just don't have enough talent on offense - QBs, O-line, Canadian depth. Big mistake was not going hard after James Franklin (although Edmonton may have preferred to keep him out of the west). Riders coach may be a genius with the defense...but some of his other decisions border on the bizarre.

I wouldn't say Hamilton is a bad team anymore. I wouldn't be surprised to see them make the playoffs...they could even finish 1st in the East.

Will Streveler Be Our James Franklin?

This is getting off topic but if we put in Timothy Flanders who do we take off our roster? -

I'm not ready to throw Bowman under the bus. He has been our least productive starting receiver thus far, but do we know for sure that he hasn't opened up room for other receivers to get open? Do we know what his blocking on runs and sweeps has been like? Maybe he is doing what is asked of him. Now I do admit I would have liked to see more effort on that end zone toss, but I think his production will come. -

We'll never know, but I doubt it. Nichols is our starter and gives us the best chance to win. But I think we have the best QB combo in the league... -

Expect a slow start from Nichols. His timing will be off somewhat. I think Lapo will call lots of short passes to receivers and dumps to Harris with some running plays mixed in. Longer passes in 2nd half as Nichols gets comfortable. -
That's why I love listening to Rider post game shows when they lose. Unfortunately, the Riders win tonight and now I'm depressed!

I'm mad. Mad because our defense looked so bad against this same Hamilton squad last week. Could someone please send this game film to OShea and Ritchie. Seriously, they need to see that it is possible to play a tight defense.
