HardCoreBlue Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Next year. Thanks to a lot of you for making this place very enjoyable and entertaining, it’s my first goto everyday practically. There’s a lot of very knowledgeable football and hockey people here along with great senses of humour which at the end of the day is the best part. Thanks to the admins and the founders of this site. It’s awesome how love for one football and hockey team can bring people together from all walks of life. Riders suck.

Goalie Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Thought Sayles was pretty good. Don't think Stove makes a difference honestly K-Shack, Noeller, wpgallday1960 and 3 others 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty Liver Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 1 hour ago, JuranBoldenRules said: I hope losing this game gives them some flexibility on making some changes. Our D lost the big play quality this year. We need some change across the DL. Jeffcoat might be the best player in the league but if he can't stay healthy he's not a huge factor. Jefferson I could take or leave at this point. Nice situational rusher but disappears most of the time, basically a non-factor in this game. The fact we had to blitz so much to create pressure put our D at constant risk downfield and is a huge departure from why the 19 and 21 teams were great. Further to this, they lost Stove and Kongbo in the off-season and did not find adequate replacements, then they lost Hansen and Jeffcoat for much of the season, they tried Mack and Wilcots who only made an impact in the last game he played, before being traded to the Ti-Cats. They brought in Adams from Sask. who has yet to show he belongs and was unable to even dress today, and then Jeffcoat gets hurt again in the 3rd Q and they have no extra DE's on the roster and nothing left to replace him, or to rotate Willy out. It's a bigtime fail in the personnel dept. but an area that can definitely be upgraded in the off-season.

Colin Unger Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 At least Andrew Harris was a non factor. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal optimist Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 There have been 8 teams that played in the Grey Cup with 15+ win seasons. Their record is quite bad though (5-3) in the big dance. That is why we play the game. TBURGESS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 For my money the D and special teams were good enough to win this game the biggest disappointment was the offense and in particular collaros though Schoen and Ellingson make those two catches early (and IMO they were very catchable passes) things might have turned out differently. All year this team was great converting second downs, tonight they were awful at it. Just did not adjust to what Toronto was doing.

That doesn't make the loss any easier to stomach. His team won (**** Toronto) and he gets another ring, anyway. What a crummy and mostly forgettable game. Grant's punt return was probably the most exciting play of the whole night. It was a pretty boring night for both offenses. The Prukop INT was the momentum swinger for me. That play was reckless and silly, IMO. ****, this drought sucks already.

I think the real problem on that play was that the 2nd receiver took his route too deep and let the guy covering him get involved in the play. Think it might have been Bailey but to me if he cuts his route to the sideline shorter the pick never happens. K-Shack and CodyT 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but he nearly presented the cup to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, caught himself halfway, stuttered, and said “the win—ning team…the Toronto Argonauts.” Just embarrassing.

There's going to be a nice rivalry going forward with Toronto. I hate them like you wouldn't believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Zaius Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Collaros was hot garbage. Worst game as a bomber. I'm expecting a big revenge tour and I'm here for it. Goalie, Tracker, JohnnyAbonny and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Last thought for me Not exciting. Quite boring. Not very good football. Regina shouldn't host another cup again. TSN seriously needs to improve the game day quality and experience. Big Time. The half time show, still trying to figure out who it was supposed to appeal to. The game was the most boring Grey cup game I've seen in some time. Nothing happened at all for long stretches of the game. I wasn't overly upset when we lost, because I thought we truly didn't deserve the win today. Dr Zaius, Zach Schnitzer and Jesse 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special teams was the source of most Argo points when we lost field position really bad on punt exchanges and kickoffs. Realistically if Bede has an average game we’re in pretty big trouble. Also gave up the big return to set up the winning TD, horribly placed punt and terrible decision by Parker to roll the dice to come inside to try to make tackle instead of keeping contain. rebusrankin, BomberD and Mark F 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Despite being outplayed we had a chance to win at the end which is pretty remarkable. Great season. This is disappointing though. HardCoreBlue and Tracker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
