Best quote from riderfans : Also F off Suitor saying Fajardo should get honorable mention....

Terrible onside kick. Man what an ugly game.

Randle has been atrocious tonight

So they abandoned Powell in the 2nd half

Is it the scheme or the players? Or both?

How bad are the Ottawa dbs? I've seen guys either wide open or at least 3 balls that the Rider receiver beat them when they had the leverage to make the play.

How does Henry not get ejected?

God Suitor is being a homer.... clear penalty on Cannon and he keeps bringing it up. Had he not tripped the Ottawa DB that would of been picked off.

Suitor going off on the fake hand off.... yeesh

I was just trying to see if the qb's have improved from last week. It appears Davis is a tad more comfortable from what I've seen. Fajardo seems to float balls but the guys seemed wide open.

No they didn't.

I noticed in that replay we had numerous successful plays from shotgun formation...

So bad d's then? Has the qb's made any good passes?

So I've only watched the 2nd half... why hasn't Ottawa blitzed more often? It seems like they have had no pressure and are playing a very soft zone? Is Fajardo the real deal or is this a case of bad defense?

I thought Lefors was healthy for the first 4 games but the offense was absolutely terrible. I don't blame him as I do remember the play calling and confusion was a huge reason for the ball not being moved. He ended up getting hurt and they hauled in Bishop. What I did not know was that he had worked out Casey Printers in the off season... I never knew that we had interest in Printers. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/football/bombers-look-for-new-options/article1200491/

His biggest crush was a hamburger last week.... Do we know if this game has any jumbo dogs for Forde to eat?

Unlike Ottawa's last game... I do think this game comes down to turn overs. This is a golden chance for Riders to come out with a win , if they lose this one then this is not a good sign.

In fairness Bishop was what 12 - 0 with Toronto at one point in time? The stats don't tell the full truth. That being said if it's simply easy enough to hand off a ball to an all star RB then shouldn't Fajardo have an easy time and a tonne of wins because of Powell? I don't think anyone thinks Nichols is some kind of hall of fame all time great qb. He is however smart enough to avoid making huge mistakes and I would think if we had a guy like Jennings throwing the ball that we would of lost many more games with all the unnecessary turn overs. As for Harris and sands of time.... we drafted his replacement who looks real good and Streveler will be the QB at that time.

I would of traded for him last season, him for Petan straight up.... nothing more though.

I'd imagine that their are several air bnb near the Stadium for decent prices. I would definitely recommend doing this. If not the park and ride system is adequate and can open up much more options for places to stay.

As long as we are running for 100 - 150 as a team then I don't think the 300 mark really matters. I'm more concerned when we have to many two and outs and/or when we can't complete basic routine passes.

He had time... he was just missing his throws.

In Hayes they got one of the most desired players at the trade deadline... what else did you want them to do? What trades did they make that was so bad? After listening to the New York reporter who was on 1290 earlier today say that Trouba basically gave the Jets only 2 teams to deal with and then talk up Pionk by basically saying he was playing on the first pairing defense and how the Rangers were a crap defensive team all around and saying that he's much better then what the analytics suggest then I don't think the trade is really that bad.

Signing Brossoit? Trade for Beaulieu?

They tried for Harris and missed out... I think they should of went for Jennings as a stop gap ... at least he can move and take a few hits.
