This is just straight up false. We broke 29,000 3x in 2017, and once in 2018. Don't spout lies.

How many were against us?  Probably 3

Posts like this make you sound like you don't know anything about football. Jefferson has 2 tackles and one sack, ditto for Jeffcoat. Hughes has 12 tackles and 5 sacks and leads the league in qb pressure and sacks.  Willies half price replacement has 11 tackles and 4 sacks. Pretty obvious who was opening things up for Jefferson last year isn't it? Micah has no sacks and has second most qb pressures in the league.  Only Hamilton has more sacks than us with 14, we have 12.  You have 4, only Toronto and Montreal have less than you with 2 each.  So other than blind hatred, your argument about our line being trash doesn't really stand up does it?.  

Here are my thoughts - I think your DL including Hughes and Micah have fattened their stats against the bottom dwellers such as Toronto. Against Calgary by way of example they were only average. Let's see what happens against the better Olines as the season progresses. Hughes will tire out as the season progresses and especially if your offense can not stay on the field. I still like Hughes and he does bring it game in and game out  but if he has stay on the field for long periods of time over the season he will just plain wear out.

Riders have also played one more game and had a softer schedule

And yet teams cant run against our dline...havnt lost...and gave up 1 touchdown all year

Let's revisit Hughes in about game 11 when he dissapear a for 3rd yr in row

 

Bighill is the guy that makes it happen. He is the best in the league and makes a huge difference in there.  That's where we struggle and you don't, that's the difference. Moncrief is a beast, is probably is the best SAM in the league. But our other 2 linebackers need to be better.  Bighill is the reason you are tough against the run. And yes I know he didn't play last week but Ottawa never tried to run the ball either, big coaching mistake IMHO. I would have been looking to expose the loss of Biggie in the middle a little more

People who want to support the team and can't always make it. Its wanting to make sure there is a team there in the first place. A concept probably over your head if you had to ask in the first place

Sounds more like bandwagon jumpers who are now realizing watching the riders ain't that much fun.

Hughes is invisible.Do you watch Rider games? If he is not getting some gimme sack he does nothing. 

Micah Johnson is the highest paid defensive player and a non factor. 

You're talking about our Dline which has given up Jack against the run and part of a D that has given up 1 TD in 3 games.

Posts like that make me think you don't anything football  🤡

Honestly, save your dumb **** for RF.com

Blue Bombers are allowing 42.7 rushing yards per game against. The Riders are giving up 95.5 rushing yards per game. Heck, we've given up 128 in 3 games, the Riders gave up 129 last night. Riders have more sacks but I'd love to see the stats involving pressures. Oh and we just gave up 24 rushing yards and 7 offensive points to Ottawa, a team the Riders surrendered 93 rushing yards to and 44 points.

Even without Biggy the Redblacks managed 24 yards rushing.

You are correct. But it isn't because the front four is making plays against the run. The 6 guys on your depth chart at front four positions has combined for 19 tackles. our same 6 players have 42 tackles.

I would argue a much better gauge of d-line success is not only QB sacks, but also average rushing yards against. I compiled the week 3 results (per CFL.ca) and manually added in week 4 using the official box scores...here's the total opponent rushing yards and opponent yards per attempt, by team. As well as their record:

Team - Total yards - Attempts - YDs/Attempt

WPG - 128 - 34 - 3.76 - (3-0)
CGY - 304 - 78 - 3.89 - (2-1)
OTT - 300 - 70 - 4.28 - (2-1)
TOR - 294 - 60 - 4.90 - (0-3)
SSK - 382 - 72 - 5.30 - (1-3)
BC - 486 - 90 - 5.40 (0-3)
MTL - 331 - 61 - 5.43 (1-2)
EDM - 270 - 48 - 5.62 (2-1)
HAM - 576 - 94 - 6.12 (3-1)

So in terms of stopping the run, SSK is adequate at best. Also, your argument neglects the fact SSK has played an extra game than WPG, so of course they have more stats - I would be very surprised if they didn't... they have about 40 more offensive plays to get said stats.

Okay.... for starters, at most during the regular season you get 2 home games against a divisional opponent, so that's just not possible, but since you asked, here's the game dates and attendance:

2017
Friday, July 7 (CAL) - 30,165
Thursday, August 17 (EDM) - 30,554
Saturday, September 9 (SSK) - 33,134

2018
Saturday, September 8 (SSK) - 33,134
