I don't know man... You can say "it's fine", but the OL has taken a significant step back this year.

I am sure of one thing. The only way to avoid OL catastrophe is to trust our scouting and development- not reach back to guys who haven’t played since before the covid year.

He had a great pass-catching game. Didn't do much on the ground.

“That rejuvenates me. Being in the locker room and being around the guys, there’s nothing like it. As long as opportunities continue to present themselves, whether down here [in the NFL] or back up in Canada if the well ran dry down here, I’d love to keep playing football as long as I can. It’s not a bad way to work.’’

Holy eff....they are so screwed. I mean, they had nothing going for them anyway, but now they really have nothing.

Not much chance, imo. Given how long he’s been out, I’d expect to see him get a full week of practice before he plays.

Coaching cap is probably why they’re allowed to get away with it - but if you look across the league - the teams who don’t have coaches wearing multiple hats are more successful. playing that many snaps in the preseason could be a bad sign.

I remember that! That was the best! Probably would be suspended for that now.

As much as we've made fun of the East this season, I'm pretty convinced there wont be a cross over. All of the Rider wins have been against the East and Edmonton. The majority of their remaining games are against us, BC, and Calgary. The East will gain wins against each other and keep the Riders out.

I view him as a fullback

He had the one spectacular year.

I was listening to an Ottawa based podcast this week and they were just flabbergasted at how conservative the play calling has been and talking about how Lapo is an “offensive guru” but “we haven’t seen it”.

I want to say most aren’t old enough to have an opinion.

100% want to see Rourke destroy the Riders.

I'm a little doubtful we ever see Agudosi again. Sounded like a season ender to me and do we bring him back for a third attempt?

That suuuucks.

BA’s return taking longer than I initially thought it would. Still doesn’t sound like it’s coming anytime soon. As long as he gets a couple games in before the playoffs, I guess.

I recognize that I personally need some time and space before I feel the same way about Andrew as I did - but I know these feelings will pass and I’m just gonna remember what he did for the organization as opposed to how he left it. Absolute dog **** way to end a career - but for a guy like Andrew, I doubt he was gonna leave the game before he was forced to. Wish him the best.

And as you have been told, pretty much everyone thinks the second half will be easier.

I don't believe this for a second. Gonna be a battle for top spot, imo.

But again, that's not the opponent, that's due to other factors Tburg is arguing as irrelevant.

Do you place no value on playing for 10 straight weeks, mostly on the road, sometimes on short rest and practicing once per week? Because if you're just looking at the opponents in a vacuum, you're missing quite a bit of the equation. EDIT: Also, looking at the schedule, what’s harder about the second half? We played Cal twice and BC once. Now we play BC twice and Cal once.

It would be an absolute shock if he didn’t win both awards.

Then that’s the tier they’re in. Good enough to walk over the **** teams but not good enough to compete.
