Don't know what to expect here. But refuse to believe, given all the talent they lost, Riders simply buckle chin straps and win.

All eyes on Freddy Plesius at MLB, Cary Koch at WR. ex Rider Butler at safety.

Glad Zak Collara "chose" Hamilton. Ken Austin gots a dud.

Total disaster for Hamilton right now.  O-Line does not look good.

This game looking a lot like Thursday night at IGF. One team dominating early and often. One taking really bad penalties and turn overs. I get it the weather is a huge factor but they are both playing in it.

Collaros is looking terrible. And it looks like he just killed Gable.

Does Rod Black not realize that saying someone is "in early season form" is not a compliment?

"Dwight Anderson is in early-season form!" - Rod Black

Not unhappy seeing Collaros struggle after what happened last off season. Hamilton is brutal. Looks like the power is in the West once again.

Black is an idiot. He just spoils every game he does. 

I'm not going to judge Collaros in this game yet. Seems to me when he was with Toronto he had a pattern of being crappy in the 1st half and good in the 2nd half.

so many penalties

LOL - great commentary by Austin - that was all about Burris and he's 100% bang on 

Hamilton has given up.

so many penalties

 

Or is it "benalties".

If Ottawa plays like Toronto, Montreal and Hamilton we should have at least 8 wins this season

Rod Black is so freaking obsessed with "the spot" it makes me nauseous.

It's all going to depend on the spot

Every third down gamble ever.

Ken Austin should feel shame. Much shame.

I'm calling it now, redblacks will win the East this year.

I got a feeling Lefevour will be the in at 2nd half.

Well, if nothing else they'll be the only undefeated team in the East after one week ..

Collaros is going to get killed, we thought our oline was bad, Hamiltons is awful. wow. 

 

Just sucking hardcore. no protection at all. 

I know it's early, but I'm starting to feel ok with losing the Collaros sweepstakes.

Did Lapo sit on something sharp right before going on air?

I hear ya - but TBH I was fine with it after seeing Willy in pre-season. After game one - I could've cared less what Collaros did. But I am surprised he's this bad - he's not "Troy Smith" bad but he's close

I too can see Lefevour coming in in the second half. Zack is not playing well at all right now

With this rain hitting the microphones it sounds like Rod and Duane have a fire going in the booth. Kind of annoying actually.
