That's why they're here. If you think Smith hasn't shown anything this year, it pretty much tells me you haven't been watching the games he's played in. It's not his fault he was playing with a QB who couldn't do anything with the fact that Smith was getting open downfield basically whenever he felt like it. If you are saying the concussions he has had are not a health concern, you are kidding yourself. Obviously every single player in the cfl is here because he isn't good enough for the nfl or was over looked on draft day. Getting open whenever he feels like it?? Wow he must be a hell of a player, good thing you guys scooped him up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll assume you are kidding or playing silly bugger. Everyone knows the league had been to Regina to investigate the Riders weeks before Mitchell opened his mouth.

iso_55 Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 No, Bo forced the CFL to do something. As you know, the investigation is still ongoing. A damn qb did the damage that a pro team was trying to hide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More fines & even loss of a 1st round draft pick. Any sources reporting on this other than an anonymous caller to a post Game show the other week? I want it to be true so much.

The lesson learned should be not to assume the previous regime were complete morons and dispose of an entire team in one fell swoop. If they would have inserted some key personnel into the lineup and continued to upgrade as the season progressed they would probably be in the playoff race along side of the Bombers.

Goalie Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 (edited) Perfect example of why you don't ever lay off an opponent. Esks layed off. It almost cost them. The game wasn't as close as the score In my opinion if you can win 70 to nothing then you win 70 nothing. You don't lay off cuz you have a lead.

Brandon Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 From what I saw the Riders offense is purely Roosevelt and if any team were to shut him down... they really have nothing else to offer. The Riders defense... I would run the whole game on them. They could not tackle or stop the run for shite. Absolutely brutal stuff from them. The team definitely had a defeated look to them in the first half... Edmonton could of and should of absolutely smoked them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As always, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 2. Whatever team beats the Riders. Ha ha. Just like how I cheer for the Jets and whatever team is playing the Habs.

We'll see if the second half last week for the Riders was a fluke or the beginning of something I see the Riders in a worse position than the Bombers were last year at this time. Both teams struggling, but the Bombers did not have the combination circus/dumpster fire going on all around them, as is the case with the Riders now. At least last year we had hope that things would get better, but I am not sure the is the case for Rider fans this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
