Let's start the mid season swoon early

 

The more I watch Dru Brown play, the more he reminds me of Jake Maier. He looks competent & spreads the ball around but the offense goes nowhere. Except for one drive. He just looks so uninspired just like Maier. Ouelette out, what a joke.

You know who's cheeks? This panel. Chez sucks, no Dunigan or Stegall (for obvious reasons), need some new injection.

They need Dunigan & Barker back. This version of the panel absolutely sucks.

Ottawa isn't committed enough to attacking vertically...which yeah results in Calgary style offense.

With Brown they can't attack downfield. Just like Maier.

Disagree.  That is his strength.

He's on pace for almost 400 yards, 10 yards per pass.  They are wasting effort on screens when they are just shredding Sask down the field.  Rather be 2nd and long taking that shot than 2nd and long from a 0 gain by Stanback or a 3 yard screen.

Let see if Brown can do anything against a Riders D that isn't that great and now missing a guy that won some award last year

AJ out rest of game?? Geeze that guy is glass. 

Ouellette, Milligan and Shafer Baker all.out for th game... Jesus. 

Panel has gone downhill ever since Schultz passed away. As for half timr I honestly mute it. I do not know what a parley is, I dont want to bet on a parley, and I def dont want Sanchez telling me what to parley

Ott secondary looking rough 

Ottawa turning the gun on themselves with the constant blitzing.

Red Blacks DB's are everywhere except where the ball is

Can’t tackle, can’t cover 

Making the Riders look good. 

Just got back, why don’t the Riders ever listen to me? 

I have zee buyer's remorse thinking Ottawa would be tops in the east this year...

Maier was third or fourth in the CFL last year in passing but in actuality it doesn't matter,He was all over the field throwing while going nowhere. He never pushes the ball downfield. Same as Brown.

It just looks like theyre playing a bad team, Riders have shown nothing scary yet. Competent coaching beats the Riders this game.

I mean, you're wrong.  He's pushing it down the field and prefers to.  He's 9-10 yards per attempt even with the amount of dink and dunk stuff being schemed up, Maier is around 7 in his career.

um Mr. new commish, lots of work to do, season openers in early June need to be sold out.

i know easy for me to say.

Riderfans go from “burn it down!” In the 1st quarter to “Sask are the Grey Cup odds on favs” at half LOL 🤣

on cue, real nice intermediate route and throw to Addison.

Brutal read there to throw that post.

Don't think ball is in with possession....he has to be on the ground to possess it.
