Booch

A pathetic thing about the game...watch Strevlers first run...Westerman that piece of **** was trying to twist Strev's knee/ankle on the ground ..Harris and Bryant had to pull him off and you can see Strev say something. Things like that which makes me glad he went to the Montreal circus...no need for losers like that and he was basically owned all night be Bryant and Hardrick...and got 20 yds in penalties..we wont miss his national status one bit..Wally has that more than covered and his 3 TD's and counting are proof of that

Yeah that Bennet throws a nice ball too..has a rocket and looks to be able to scramble just as well as Strev's.

Yeah like this teams fire..they got each others back and stand up for one another.. and it shows Also very apparent they love playing for each other and for the name on front of their jerseys..they are the very embodyment of a "team"

Actually it's a good thing and sign of depth and overall offensive balance that he doesnt have to be a focal point and get beat up in the process..

It will be easier in games to put him in tho now if Nichols is struggling...still small sample size but you can see he obviously has the stuff...he is for real

Yes...sadly but I'll take it!!

I can see a offensive player of week possibly for the kid too..so far has me 37.6 fantasy points too lol

Man u gotta love this Strevler..has moxie and fire..reminds so much of Dunnigan

Yeah he is a dirty one..and a yapper too...when he's got nothing to yap about this game...soooooo glad he shunned us

Looking forward to seeing what Bryant will do in the middle..he was one of the new guys brought in this TC that I was most excited about..I nb think a rotation of him..Nevis and Poop will give teams fits and wear em out..

another observation from the game....seeing as the Rider's didn't have any "inside" information of the Ottawa offense as mentioned in an article previously that it was said they did with T.O is there any correlation in the 2 extremes in the deference's performance? Basically it seemed T.O couldn't get going and the Sask defense always had defenders in the right place and swarmed to the ball smothering them...but in Ottawa..Harris pretty much had a clean game...db's and linebackers were constantly in chase mode and Ottawa moved up and down the field easily and hung a 40 spot on them...maybe more truth to this than just speculation...and Penison's ejection from an area he wasn't supposed to be on walk thru day for further "intel" probably put a wrench in the Ottawa game planning....things that make you go..hmmmmmm

Yeah..they are going to be having some in house squabbling in no time there..especially when things dont go well like it is now. Add in Jones' antics and freak outs on sidelines it will be monkey see monkey do. I'd say by game 5 it will be the inmates running the asylum there

Andrew Harris...running back ..winnipeg blue bombers...

I also don't get the high powered offense stigma...the T.O game if Trestman had challenged that pick six would have been reversed and they got one last night...take out those 7 points each game and they have offensively scored 20 points...and 10 points....super high powered

Agreed...Carter has no tackling skill/ability/knowledge..whatsoever and his pick again was a gimme... How Mr Smart Jones thinks this is beneficial is beyond me...weakening your offense to plug in a player to weaken your defense???...funny thing is they have nobody on the 46 man...or PR as a back-up DB...like what kind of roster management is that.... Bond must just be loving this....the Rider's basically took a weak o-line from last year...and replaced 2 guys on it with arguably weaker guys...and no depth behind them...How a CFL team has zero National O-lineman on PR is baffling...let alone only one import who can't crack this roster...and don't even say JSJ is depth on the IR...He has done nothing and if Bladek is better than him...oh my This team is in shambles and based on pre-season and first 2 games where they have score 2 offensive TD's I would say has worst QB'ing in the league

he was handed that team in Edmonton on a platter...had no hand in it at all in creating/building it...he just took over and reaped the rewards

yeah him too...big mouth and spouting off about things in media...who would want to willingly go there and play in that environment is beyond me..what a crappy culture and team mindset. a good majority of that team do not act like pro's and are more concerned with showboating and and acting stupid when making the most basic of football plays...

and you don't need a head shot to get one either...especially if you have had several before...and behind that line...he will get pounded repeatedly game in and game out and it will totally affect his pocket demeanor and have him ducking and diving when he doesn't even need to...he already is at that state now...guy is done...and the funny part the Riders are already 250k+ into him salary wise already and the season is 2 games old...

I'm actually sensing a very convincing win tonight

yeah just read some of the exchanges....he is a me first guy..plain and simple and I can see slowly this year starting to cause rifts in Riderland..I would bet that if Jones got tired of him and cut him...he would be out of the league cause I can't see anyone wanting to deal with him...he ain't that good

If anything Carter is going to get hurt "trying" to play DB and making tackles/hits...I bet tho Jones will keep him there tho to try and keep his pride intact and not look like he made a stupid decision.. Seriously he beaked off on twitter?...what a real pro...and his concern about fantasy points and his proclamation of the best in the league is the type of guy you don't want on a team...he's a real peice of work that one

Taken out to the woodshed...and what about the vaunted defensive front and receiving Corp????... Few thoughts...actually Moncreif and Eggouven or however it's spelled are ballers and kept this game closer than it should have been..they are good. Not sure why they keep this Carter pandering..its pathetic. The try to dissect the INT ten diff ways how good he was but in actuality he grabbed a poorly thrown ball that hit him in numbers when Harris effed up and flubbed it inside instead of the out Spencer was running and he fell trying to contort back to the ball. Why not focus on his getting beat deep.. or his pathetic tackle attempts throughout the game when he basically dives at a ball carrier.. maybe review the Powel run where you know who came in off edge and totally Hurl'd it and missed. I was thinking does he ever shut up?? I guess he does when he gets schooled and his team gets stomped..takes the wind right out of their collective pandering for the cameras and showboating after even the most generic of plays.. is it just me or is that whole team just full of that crap after any play..where most other teams guys just go about business and act like they've done it before.. I guess that's the culture there of the me first mentality. That Oline is horrendous and those QB's are going to be Willy'd by game 5..no help in site either on PR or anywhere else they stash their guys...defensive line too..by 2nd quarter their guys were gassed and 2 of the 3 cdn tackles they rely on would be hard pressed to make a roster elsewhere...and again..no help anywhere on the PR. It's fun to go back and read Riderfans threads boasting of their QB depth..embarrassment of riches for receivers..dominant defensive line...yeah..right. We seen what Hurl offers...again and Judge is still outclassed there as a sub too..they are lucky T.O shat the bed last week or they would be 0-2 and all freaking right out...tho I sure they are already anyway. Fact of the matter that looks like a weak team..with no depth and now some serious QB question marks. Collaros will be so gunshy now in pocket to get pasted again and trying to avoid being concussed he's gonna look just like or worse than last year...and they are so screwed SMS wise right now..with lots of bonuses already paid out have no means to go out and fix anything

Yeah 2 were on right garbage penalties...poor guy...

Not sure Lafrance who hasn't practiced much at all and isn't in game shape in over Augustine is really the "smart" move I also think Augustine offers more than Lafrance too...but oh well I guess

Don't get their mindset on roster configuration, or is it just a fact of the matter that they have zero depth all along the roster and is a result of Jones's poor SMS management and poor recruiting. Technically they don't even have 5 true starting DB's on that roster, and no back-up to cover the starters...The o-line depth is sad too and the back-up Bladek isn't ready for prime time. The d-line as well...sure they have 2 good ends...and a multitude of back-ups but at tackle are so weak...Evans is a good starter but not a world beater by any means and Steele and Henry would be good back-ups...not what you would want as starters if you could help it..and behind them they have zip...a couple injuries in game along the lines thee, or in db backfield and they are in a world of hurt...they may jump out of the gate fine, but come mid season and injuries crop up and they face a heavy West schedule I see their season going downward quickly
