Any day in Regina is a good day to win, even with all our rookies out in full force. It’s all a matter of pride.

Today I want to watch (through my radio) three things:

Eric Barrierre at quarterback. I want to see if his credentials have anything to do with the Bomber’s future. I fully expect we will have four QB’s kicking around at season open. He might become the new “lady in waiting”!

Chidi Okeke at right tackle. I want to see if he’s the new apprentice that we are hoping for, that might be a key cog in our Hog Heaven. I expect In a better we will be starting Lofton at RT as the season starts.

Our linebacker schemes. I’m assuming Kyrie Wilson will be one of the two middle linebackers in a basic 4=4=4 defensive structure. Outside of Gauther, I want to see who/what else we can put in those middle two spots. Are they going to take a peek at Brandon Alexander there,  or is he just too small? This is the one place that we look just too skinny. This is THE one big challenge for our new defensive coordinator, methinks...

I don’t care how much the coaches say it doesn’t matter who wins. To me it matters, kind of a lot. Beating the Roughie’s will set the tone not only for our rookies, but for our vets at home too. Preseason does matter for a lot more than just player evaluation.

We did. Smith got 27. Danced around a bit but looked solid 

He's legit...I hope he gets a lot of back field reps...we know what JA has..so no need for big workload for him

Gonna see if I can get that to time up properly but didn't think it'd be possible. Hmmm. Next commercial maybe I'll test that out...

It's like a split second off for me.

If you're having troubles with the stream buffering, pausing and running it about 20-30 seconds delayed seems to work a lot smoother.

Is this tryouts for announcers? God awful

Sergio!

 

nice drive

The red gloves and shoes kind of annoy me, not gonna lie.

Can’t figure out how to line it up

I paused the live video stream for about 3 seconds then pressed play again and its pretty dead-on

Yeah he was jogging and still looked faster then the cover team.

They thought it was Johnny Aug that got nicked. It was Mitchell the turds.

Color blind...who wearing those?

So far I've liked our run D, Chris Smith, Myron Mitchell and Ontaria Wilson

Don’t think it’s allowed during the season 

The Announcers seem pretty convinced Strev can’t throw and also every rider has had an exceptional camp so far.

My favourite was the comment about "opening up the whole playbook" because it was 2nd and short on the first drive of preseason.

Just a helmet issue.

Mine was the burp hiccup right before the last commercial break 

Nice early drive. Looking forward to see the noobs.

Pretty sure he fastest on team...or one of...he has most big play explosion potential on roster too...including vets

Petrishen has range and motor.

That’s what that was. lol. Thought dude choked. 

I think Thomas is okay as PBP but Mullinder as Colour is the worst. 

The way the Rider broadcast is portraying this match, you sense they think all the back up Bombers are the defending Grey Cup champs 🤣. Your team is sucking against our maybe never were lineup haha …

Riders' starters are probably running out of time to do something here
