Good morning everyone, it's a great day to watch the Riders get stomped at home.

First things first, can Johnny Football shock the world and lead the Als to a win over the Stampeders??

They  have multiple weeks before playoffs start. You’re absolutely delusional if you think you’re going to get past the Stamp. Your team has 3 games left and frankly I see your only win being against the Riders next weekend and that’s it. Guess you’ll see.

so you're really not interested in actually discussing things and instead are choosing to simply talk **** about the bombers. GTFO of here with that nonsense. Come back when you want to talk football, though I don't truly expect any Rider fan to have a hot clue about football so maybe the fault is mine for expecting too much from you. 

 

Darrell Davis explains the rule and Terry Jones shares his opinion.

Is there any part of Davis’s explanation that doesn’t fit how Reilly was tackled on that play?

Don't really care if I get it right. They are the luckiest 10-8 team ever..

More from Rider columnist Darrell Davis..telling it like it is.

“Until Willie Jefferson made a Willie Jefferson-type play that was somehow allowed by the CFL’s video-review officials, the Saskatchewan Roughriders were poised to lose a pivotal game against the Edmonton Eskimos.

But while Eskimos quarterback Mike Reilly was absorbing a helmet hit and getting fallen on by Riders defensive lineman Zack Evans, Jefferson — one of the league’s top defensive players — grabbed an interception and carried it 49 yards for a game-deciding touchdown. Video review somehow ignored the late-game, roughing-the-passer penalties and Saskatchewan beat Edmonton 19-12.”

That might get him banished  from the province. Lucky bastard!

Unfortunately I don't see Jennings being able to beat the Riders. Way to beat the Riders is to protect the football and I don't trust Jennings to protect the football at all. 

BC has to come to Regina.  They will be throttling no one.  Get us behind and we are in trouble because we can't score.  We are having trouble scoring 20 points per game. Protecting the ball against us however is easier said than done, but you are correct that is the key

After watching Calgary, Edmonton , and the riders all play crappy yesterday sure gives me hope for the Bombers for the rest of the season.......it's like all the teams are back to square one and are just getting out of training camp.  

This will be a wild end of season/playoffs with the parity in the league.

I'm not sure Esks will even make the playoffs...  Jason Maas' postgame interview was scary - he sounds lost...  'if receivers run their routes, we win'...  

Makes me appreciate Osh actually.

 

I actually kind of agree with you... watching the Esks play yesterday I'm not sure they'll win again this season... but that being said, I also don't have much faith in the Jennings-led Lions... With Lulay, the Lions are in a race for 2nd right now...

Both Solly and Lulay expected back shortly.

 

The BC Lions could have linebacker Solomon Elimimian and quarterback Travis Lulay back from injury this week, in time for their next game against the division-leading Calgary Stampeders.

According to TSN's Farhan Lalji, Elimimian will get final imaging and hopefull clearance to play on Tuesday, while Lulay is also optimistic about being able to play next week.

Lulay won't make much difference. His career is winding down and he has been in and out of the line up too much to come in this late in the season and be as effective as he once was. 

Lulay playing, could very well be the difference in BC beating out Edmonton for a playoff spot.

Lulay and his team may accomplish that......but after that they are done no matter who is at QB..... the first good hit on Lulay will be very telling, if he is playing at all.

Assuming he is actually healthy.

Thanks for irrelevant info - what he wrote is exactly what happened. 

Sask is coming in to Winnipeg on a short week and then they have to go to Calgary.  0-2 isn't a stretch.  Their final game is against BC in Regina, then they end the season with a bye.

I think BC with Lulay could beat the Riders but not Jennings.  We'll see if he is healthy.

Looksl like it's Lulay - https://montrealgazette.com/sports/football/cfl/bc-lions/b-c-lions-lulay-feeling-good-expected-to-return-from-dislocated-shoulder/wcm/fb1c9f57-cc6f-450b-963a-e3e58cd54444

Looking forward to playing the 'Riders this weekend but man, what a missed opportunity that Banjo Bowl was, otherwise we could be vying for 2nd place in the West.

That was such a bullshit non call. The Riders always get every break & I don't think they're lucky. I think it's garbage officiating & the CFL wanting to prop up the team.

Jennings makes Lulay look like Joe Montana so yeah, he’ll make a difference.
