Or try 63 yard field goals. Then the head coach says he has no regrets & that he'd do it again.

Seems I remembered the Lions didn't want to deal with Mack probably because other than a draft pick we had nothing they wanted. I seem to remember that the Esks had an opportunity to talk contract in the days before free agency.

The Lions committed to Lulay. They knew Reilly wouldn't sign in BC. They wanted to acquire some assets before he became a FA a few days later. So, trading Reilly to Edmonton was just part of the understanding that both sides came to. No way Edmonton trades for Reilly if they didn't think they could sign him. BC did this while Reilly was under contract to them so there was no reason for the league to overturn an above the board trade which it was. Wally gave BC permission for Reilly's agent to talk to the Eskimos. Again, all above board as both sides wanted this deal to go through.

The Lions & Esks made a secret deal. The Esks would have known they could sign Reilly. So, the trade was made.

We never played the Riders last night yet you keep talking about Nichols on this thread when your qb clearly sucks just as bad. How many overthrows, missed targets & picks did he have last night?

No qb wanted to be here back then as we were a rolling train wreck as an organization.

That's because it's so bad now.

I'd take Harris as I know the other 2 aren't going anywhere.

Yeah, okay Prider. You, your team & your fanbase is so cocky even after your qb poops a turd at home. Why not spend time with your kind on Priderfans? Why come here? You need to worry about the poor qb play of all of your qbs instead of always talking about ours.

A HC needs to be flexible. To adapt to changing situations whether it be during a game, practice or because of injuries. Not to be totally rigid, stubborn & refusing to make changes. I've seen this dog & pony show for nearly 5 years from O'Shea & I know I'm tired of it. Cal Murphy was a stubborn Irishman like O'Shea. The difference between the 2 is he won championships. Lots of them. When the situation called for it, he did show adaptation. He knew what it took as a coach to win. Our current HC is as flexible as a two by four after so many years & still hasn't figured it out.

Do you have kids? Like playing hide & seek in the aisles of a grocery store with a 10 yr old. You zig & they zag. Kinda like that.

You'll never win with Collaros. The entire league knows it except delusional Rider fans but carry on.

I used to disagree with you about LaPo but not anymore. We need to overhaul our OC & DC. The HC will be a part of that as well if things don't improve. I look at other teams & I keep asking myself why can't we do what they do? The answer always comes back to LaPo.

It's been a rule for a long time. Cut your hair.

I think our 2 biggest problems are evaluating talent & the type of receivers we need to play in our offense. We can't find the talent to bring in. When we do we can't seem to coach them up. Or they don't have the ability to stretch a defense. Other than Adams, we are a team of possession receivers because that is what we do. LaPo runs a possession type passing offense. Control the ball, spread it around & take time off the clock. We don't even try to go vertical that much. We have a one dimensional passing attack yet Calgary can do both. Spread the ball around or go deep. Why do we have to be an either/or passing attack? This is the first time I've felt that LaPo needs to go. This offense isn't going to go far with the offensive philosophy LaPo believes in. I think a new OC with different ideas is needed. We really see how ineffective it is when Dressler is out. It shouldn't be that way.

We should beat Montreal but after that don't get your hopes up too much.

Rules say hair is an extension of the uniform. I thought it was legal because hair is a part of the body. I did know it was legal to pull hair. Okay, so I went to the same law school Saul did.

I can tell you that Collaros scares no one either.

Rider fans be like...

Coaches all want to move up or be in charge.

Willie Jefferson & Charleston Hughes were invisible tonight. So happy to see those 2 asshats lose & not have the opportunity to act like clowns in front of the cameras.

The Rider OL have played better up to tonight. But Collaros isn't much better than Nichols.

Some fans will never be satisfied I guess. I'm sure there are some deranged fans in New England who think Bill Belichek is a lousy coach & Tom Brady is overrated.

The Bombers are an OC, qb & receivers away from a Grey Cup as well so....
