Brandon

I just don't understand why several people on here hold Strevelers age against him? We've had a tonne of QBs older then him who showed absolutely nothing at all over the years. The guy played more then enough downs to show that he has some great tools.

Ouch that is a lot of guys to sign up ... I'm hoping they can retain most of that o-line

What I would love to have is Nichols taking a big pay cut, give the keys to Streveler and give him half a season and see how he does with an offense that is based around him. I'd way much rather have Nichols coming in as relief then having to depend on him to win.

A quick google image search of Ellsworth ...... I am not shocked that this guy is a creeper. I'm surprised he's even in wrestling.

I don't know if they'll have money to spend on those positions after the sheer amount of FA we have to re-sign.... it'll be up to our recruiting to get those spots filled

I didn't say we would have to cut Nichols, I'd rather just start Streveler and eventually move on from Nichols. It would be a tough price to pay having to dish out 400 000 k for a back up... but I'd rather get the guy ready sooner rather then later.

I thought why not start a knee jerk reaction thread after a disappointing loss.. I would like to move on from Nichols, mainly because unless everything is running at an optimal level he can't get the job done. I'd much rather have a guy who can actually run and throw on the run in case the oline has some pressure on them. We blame the receivers but from my eyes this season it seemed like the receivers did not get passed to them mid stride on a consistent basis. It seems like unless Nichols has numerous steamboats that his passes require the receiver to dive or go high/low to make the catch. I would not mind handing the keys over to Chris and save a crap load of money signing someone else as a backup. I'll a take a year of growing pains over a guy who can't rollout and make a pass 15 yards down the field...

The club would have nothing to gain from keeping this a secret? It's not that big of a deal.

Why in the hell did the NFL allow them to throw a concert 9 days before the game?

A new era of QB's for the CFL to come, I'm ok with that. It would be nice for other teams to have to suffer like we did by putting many different QB's on the field until they find one that sticks.

I'm not a comic book guy but wasn't Stan Lee kind of looked upon as a guy who screwed over Jack Kirby and took a lot of the credit for things he didn't create?

My guess for next season.... BC gets Reilly, keeps Lulay at a reduced salary. Edmonton goes for Jennings. Everything else remains the same.... *If* Bo Levi leaves then Calgary gets Collaros , Saskatchewan makes a big trade for Franklin and Rider fans herald him as the next greatest qb....

Who could the Riders have brought in earlier this season to be the back up? Slim pickings and as a backup Bridge is somewhat serviceable.

I just don't understand why is he on that line? Is he in the dog house? I understand demoting guys like a Perreault, Connor, Roslovic, Ehlers..... but one of your bona fide A+++ stars gets demoted why?

For a good laugh read riderfans.com ... It's amazing that they have equal amount of posts about Brandon Bridge being a sack of crap and terrible and then the same amount of posts about how dirty Jeffcoat is and how because he was hit in the head they lost the game. The excuses are hilarious and of course not a single person making mention of the blatant holds, the uncalled lateral, the overall terrible performance from their run game.... it's so funny.

So what's the deal with Laine this season?

On the Bridge injury play I saw two riders blatantly hold two of our guys (Ogopogo) and zero calls.

A win is a win, I'm glad Streveler got some game time as a change of pace. My only gripe was Demski being to cute and our weak return game. I think if we clean those things up we have a shot against Calgary.

The lower end brands really have closed the gap with the name brands in terms of quality.

I'm only 64 and a half ....

Well Johnny Hendricks sure embarrassed himself last night.. and more then likely he won't even get paid for it as per Brennan Ward....

I will say with Windows 10 to re-install the operating system it is ridiculously fast and also easy. The OS also runs very light and over the last few years I found it to be much smoother then Windows 7. I'd make the leap.

Buono has had Jennings who has regressed greatly and Hufnagel has fatty Arbuckle. Both coaches haven't developed any QBs in the last five years.

Insane decision .... he must of had a dispute with management/ownership.
