The decision might go to the player with the lower contract. I assume McGuire probably is at the league minimum or close to it. Until we have to “show him the money”..

Adding Powell is a big plus for us. I don't mind our team, we will do ok Is judge healthy? Powell was a big pick up, especially if the riders finally get back to running the ball now.

Judge is good to go. O'Day will go back to running the ball. It will help us be more balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they are a team that has to run a bunch because they can't leave their qb in the pocket to pass or he will quite literally get killed on the field, so it's run heavy, short pass heavy and roll the qb out heavy.

Booch Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 Riders ran a lot last year..second only to us, and wasn't an issue as to why offence sucked...it was QB'ing and Coordinating...and having to work fast behind a weak o-line...So swapping in Powell for Mason/Marshall/Thigpen and having same QB..O.C and arguably a weaker receiving corp and O-line...can't see that offence lighting things up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatty Liver Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) It's pretty clear the Riders are following the same game plan as the Bombers, they're just a couple of years behind in personnel and execution. Collaros showed flashes of his 2015 version last night a couple of times, he's a much better QB when he can use roll-outs to extend plays and throw on the run. Question is will he do that during the regular season or will he hide in the pocket and try to get the ball out of his hands as fast as humanly possible to avoid the rush and protect his gourd. When tied to the pocket he becomes much less effective. As for their running game, I don't think Sask. has the horses but with the RB's William Powell is the guy that went toe to toe with Harris last year and racked up 2 hundred yard performances against a pretty strong Bomber D.

17to85 Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 Sask rolled their QBs out all the time last year, I don't expect it to change. As I said, collaros can't stay in the pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 17 touchdown passes, 20 Ints for Zach the last two years. 35 td passes and 28 Ints since 2015. Roughly a TD pass a game and less than 1 per game the past two years. 2015 was a long time ago. Heck Kevin Glenn has 25-14 the past two seasons and he didn't throw a pass in 2018.

Tracker Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 Collaros has the same terrible offensive coordinator as last year, an O-line which is no better than last year and maybe worse, and it sure as spit looks like the quality of his available receivers has declined. The Bomber front 4/7 are significantly better than last year and ought to feast on the Rider QBs. If Collaros has been traumatized, a couple of good solid hits and he will go into a feeble(sic) position on the field. Maybe even wet himself. The Rider running back might be better but he still needs holes to get through. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I thought a lot of his catches were times he was left open. Didn't really see anything special. Kind of reminds me of that Canadian receiver who caught 2 balls in pre-season and we cut him. And then he took to the media to trash us lol Just reminded me because catches don't mean you are a great receiver. Could have just meant people forgot about you Edited June 8, 2019 by BBlink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
