It's time for the Riders to start sucking ...

... then we'll see who the so called leagues best fans are. I can hardly wait for the place where ancestry.com and eharmony.com are the same, to start their own 25 years of futility. It begins on the 27th!!!

    Hilarious:   Yes it's all a conspiracy, started by those evil Winnipeg reporters.  It's only going to "galvanize" them.  Right.  And when they go 0-5, 0-6, and then 0-7 they will be so galvanized t

I'm expecting a split with both teams winning at home. Our offense sucks. Their defense sucks. Our defense is OK. Their offense is pretty good. Special teams could be the difference.

 

I feel like you have these mixed up.

 

Their offense is pretty good? I can't imagine you'd be calling our offense any good after giving up 10 sacks and scoring 13 points.

 

 

And only look a week prior to that where they put up 31 pts and ran for 150 yards against the same Stampeders defense that we had 2 weeks to game plan against.  The same Rider offense that has put up 50 more points then we have this season....

 

They at least have a running game...  

Does the competition between Bombers and Riders cause a change if other team blows out the other?  And does it matter if it happens this week or next?

 

For example:

 

If the Riders blow out the Bombers at the LDC, do the Bombers make a change before the Banjo Bowl?  Vice versa?

 

 

I think if the Blue go into Regina and smoke them with Marve (it is possible)  then Taman will HAVE to can Chamblin.     

 

Though if we get smoked both games I don't us making any moves at all.    

I'll say this, to all those talking about firing O'shea... If you actually want to see what a coach who has obviously lost his entire team looks like.. look at Chamblin. He's lost them, O'shea is nowhere close to that at all... MB tho, yeah he can go but O'shea, he needs to stay. Give him some coordinators who actually know what they are doing, MB has a history of this crap really... and things would be different, i damn near guarantee it. It happened to Montreal the year after they fired MB also. Same would happen here.

Calvillo's worst season was 2007, did I mention MB was his offensive cord?

I definitely feel like the Riders are the better team right now, but it should be an even game on Sunday. Could come down to a Pick 6 or return TD....

You are also a negative nancy far too often.

You are also not refuting my claim...

Disagreeing with you is refuting enough. 

You guys need to change yer avatars to statler and waldorf in the worst possible way lol.

The Riders lead the league in total yards per game at 412, so yah... I'd say their offense is pretty good. If they just run the ball at us (They've got the most YPG) and give Smith a chance to simply handle the game, they could easily beat us. If they choose to play musical QB's and don't run the football like they did last game, then they'll give up more sacks and not score many points.

 

We're 7th in total defence at 392 which is OK considering that our offense sucks (Last in the league in YPG at 320).

non-denial denial ‎(plural non-denial denials)

1.(idiomatic) A statement which appears to deny that something is true, but which, when examined carefully, can be seen to have used diversion, bluster, or ambiguity to avoid making a clear, direct denial.

I think that the final score will be the most important and determining factor for this game.

I believe you.

as per Arash Madani...Chamblin and Taman were fired.

Stop posting in this thread.  We've had enough bad karma as it is.

I can't help myself, it's hard not to love a 1 - 10 Rider season, especially you when two of those losses are because of the Bombers! :)

We're 4-7 guys.  We're not exactly doing heaps better.

Yup we're 4-7 but at least we are not 1-10 plus, we still a high chance to make it on the playoffs. Who knows with Nichols at the helm, with an improving Defense and with O'shea now handling the ST we can get to something.

What if Henoc signs in Saskatchewan. He might you know...

There's about as much chance of Henoc signing in Sask. as Huff running their show...NONE...Everyone is really tripping over themselves to don the green and white    lol....more like running the other way...I can see some big changes there, with high priced players exiting shortly.

Do they have cap space to sign Henoc to begin with? And do you think signing Henoc will make them win all their remaining games?

 

Can I just get this stuff out of the way.

thanks. :D:P:lol:

With Hurl seemingly getting better every game (and due in no small part to a better D-line), the pressure to sign Henoc is not as great as before. Its starting to look like we could live without him if we had to- and there is a real possibility we will lose out on him.

Yep...there's also a very real possibility that we get him. However, I agree with your point. As much as I would love the return of Henoc and hope the Bombers make him an offer he can't refuse, I am not terribly worried if we don't get him. Henoc, Brett Jones, Ben Heenan, upcoming FA splurge again....whatever. As long as we are spending every dollar to field the best team possible and pursuing high quality players when the opportunity arises I am happy. We will land some of them. Hopefully Henoc is one...if not, let's turn the page and get another great player or two with that money.
