Riders @ Esks

Tough start for Edmonton so far. Defense looks awful. Seen nothing out of Reilly up to this point that would justify going balls to the wall for a guy thats attempted 77 passes in his CFL career.

Ssk offense having their way with the eskies dline linebacker s and dbs.

Esks making adjustments and getting some pressure now and reaping the rewards.

Lots of other miscues though. Penalties and a shanked fg are leaving points on the field.

Reilly doesn't look comfortable at all. Sask needs to relax, and let Kory Sheets do his thing.

Riders look to be movin the ball well. However edmontons defence is baaad. I think they are making the riders look good. Edmontons o line looks a lot like ours did at the beginning of last year. Very inconsistent and lots of break downs.

Still early but we look to have the strongest defence so far and a mediocre offence. Should be able to get two wins over bc, Edm, mon, and split the rest.

Penalties are also killing the Eskies.

I wouldn't say we're going to sweep B.C. Thats a very, very good football team that happened to have a bad game last night.

Yeah it's asking a lot but we typically play them well enough to beat them. I'd be happy with a split there as well.

Let's figure out how to move the chains first.  Then we can talk about winning games.

Edmonton is just ******* brutal. In every aspect of the game. Even we might hang a beating on them in the home game. Just putrid offence. Their o-line is even worse than I thought.

I'd love to see Bryant Turner go up against that interior line.

Is this the same QB some were predicting great things for? Some of those peeps pilloried Mack for not going after Reilly, fearlessly predicting he'd be head and shoulders better than any QB in Winnipeg.

But it's only one game you might say. Sure, it is. However, those predicting great things from Reilly made those predictions based on Reilly playing very little in BC.

It's only one game. I wouldn't get too high or too low on the kid. I still think Reilly will be a fine QB in this league, but he's going to take his lumps as many first year starters do.

Yeah I agree.  I wish the kid had given the Bombers a chance to sign him instead of taking this suicide mission with Edmonton.  Behind a decent o-line or even our o-line who knows how good this kid could be. Right now I just hope he makes it out of Hamilton next week alive.

Edmonton is as bad as any team ive seen in awhile. That was putrid and the Riders weren't actually that good.

the esks o-line was giving up so much pressure Reilly was clearly frustrated and afraid and just not able to get anything going. Feel kind of bad for edmonton fans because TIllman ****** that team like they were an asian babysitter.

How Tillman is still employed in the CFLis beyond me. Not a Kavis Reed fan. Think he lasts the season????

I guess Mark Nelson was a bigger part of that D than we thought...

if the esks keep looking this bad then yeah I think Kavis walks the plank. Saw a lot of undisciplined stuff from them and to me that goes back to the coach.

Kavis will find someone to blame like he did Crandell last season.

Riders weren't much better.  Dwight Anderson is such a ******-bag.

I did enjoy watching Ferri get absolutely obliterated by the o-lineman on that int return though, serves him right. 

Could be the hit of the year.

He got absolutely "Ferried" on that hit.

Ferried without mercy.

Ferried without mercy.

I see what you did there. Very nice.

What are the odds Dwight Anderson lasts the year in Saskatchewan. Flipped out yesterday with his team up 30.

I think you've been watching a bit too much porn lately....
