Gonna be a close hard fought one here for sure.

I'm not taking the schmoes lightly at all because that would be foolish with the talent they got.

But ... We're definitely in better shape than BC at the moment and they'd better think again if they plan to use the same game plan against us that they used against them.

They knew BC had no run game so they just sent the house on Reilly most of the game.  With A Harris and Lapo's draw plays or RPO plays, they won't be able to do that on us.  Catch em off balance with those draws, get them to crash in on A Harris and we can use the play action Darvin or C Matthews deep ball on them, or even get mid route seams to Woltairesky to catch em off guard in space.

And ... I think on defense Bighill might be able to bait T Harris into a few rushed throws or a few hangers for Hecht to make a play on.

I know we aren't done this week but this game is already getting me anticipating already.

Jamie Nye has the Shmoes 33% favorites. What a Shmoe.

I still don't understand why there is a separate article for his picks when he is included with the other writers when they make their picks. Did someone demand an explanation for picking the Riders to win every week? Also yeah, if you're 33% sure something is going to happen, doesn't that mean you don't think it will happen?

It’s been a long wait.

Tomorrow, we unveil what could be our best receiver lineup, for a varied and diverse group, in a very long time. 

Adams, ‘Starsky, Mat*thews, Demski, Whitehead, with a touch of Harris and Nelson.

Starsky is a much better nickname for Wolitarsky

I take it as he thinks the Shmoes have a 33% better chance in winning the ball game or why would he pick them to win? I would like to tell him that he is sorely mistaken and the pounding Dumbo and his team are going to take tomorrow will drop them down two spots in the power rankings. It will make me proud to watch Hardrick and Gray kick the shlt out of their so dominant (according to the media) D Line and show them who they really are. A bunch of Dumbo lead Shmoes. There, I feel better for now lol!

I like it better when you drop fire on the other guys instead of friendly fire.

heh... I'd definitely pay 100$ to bet on the Bombers with a 300$ payout if they win (rough fair payout for a bet on a 33% underdog)

Isn't he the guy I see plastered over on OurRiders.com? I think he predicts Rider Victories even when they lose!

The 33% figure floating around this thread is only Nye’s percentage of CONFIDENCE in his choice of Edmonton beating Winnipeg.

I'd bet on it..

And that is why his first name is Jamie and not Bill.

They need to drop Nye and hire somebody else. He sucks.

You mean Rod Pederson Jr? The guy is nothing more than a Rider shill. Picks the Riders to win and Bombers to lose nearly every week. He managed to go 0-3 last week. Every time I leave smack on cfl.ca about his awful homer picks my comments get deleted lol.

pretty sure they are synced just fine...regardless his presence on the field is going to open up space for someone else..and he's certainly going to factor into at least 5 or 6 catches for a whack of yards, and you can't over look his red zone presence and attention he is gonna garner..

Yes and that has always been the case with him. You know what you're going to get, no surprises. The guy is a playmaker and really goes after the ball. If I was a DB I would not want the assignment of covering him. I look for the Shmoes to be in penalty trouble all night long.
