The riders are going to win next week, book it. The question is, can you regroup and win at home? That will be the turning point game of your season.  

Not sure if it'll be a turning point but the next two are big games. A split would put us a 8-3, tie breaker over you guys and in a solid place in the playoff race. I agree the LDC will be tough. Can the Riders keep generating turnovers the way they have the past two? I believe they have 11 in the past two games after generating 5 in their first six games. Does Glenn continue to play well or does he have a Bad Kevin game?

Soooo, you don't understand the term "book it". because it comes from the gambling world  Ok, maybe don't use that expression.  Instead try this: "I'm extremely confident that if Glenn doesn't start to feel the collar begin to tighten and if the Bombers play one of their worst games of the season, we might fluke out a win"

Fluking out wins is what you have been doing. Our wins have been a bit more decisive.

Bc and edmonton did two things the same...didnt stick to the run and refused to check it down. Bombers excell at both.

If the Poop starts in both games Im predicting a sweep. If not, we split. I honestly think hes that important to the defence. Need to get into glenns face early and often.

Riders took advantage of bad play by both teams. Bc isnt as good as tsn wants them to be and edmonton has started to feel the reality of the injuries.

Sewell and Chick in that group of 8.  Both got owned by the riders. I said it last week, Esks gave up way too much for Chick, he is done

So how many extra points in the standings did your "decisive" victories get you.  Last time I looked it's 2 points for a win regardless of the score.  We've been finding ways to win, you've been praying for teams to play the worst game of the year.  Good luck with that moving forward.

You dont fluke 5 wins in a row. I dont care what league you're in. Dont be a ****.

The wins by ssk have been against an over confident bc team and a edmonton team that is basically a practice squad.

Hollins drops a game winning pick 6 in the last minute of game. Durant hands it over it true Darian fashion in OT. Bombers praying for other teams to make mistakes too. Any good team will make others pay for their mistakes

Lets look at the big winning streak. Lucky wins against a bad montreal team. winless Ottawa, pulled that one out of the fire. Beat Hamilton, who hasn't. Beat the same practice squad eskimo's, in your stadium with a way worse roster than the one we pounded in their stadium last night.  Respect is what you will get when you beat the western teams.

Riders need to take a page out of the Bombers book on how to win at new Mosaic

Hope the other team hits the upright in OT?  No we have something better planned for you than that..

The bombers have beaten the same amount of western teams as the riders you dip ****.

Respect? Bombers dont give a **** about your respect. They'll be running that respect down your throat in about a week. Enjoy your 2 games. You have 1 win left on the season. 

Now get off your sister and go start your tracker.

If we didn't get complacent in that game then we blow the Riders out.

Let's analyze your post in a similar way. I'll take wins against Montreal over losing to them like some teams...not naming any names.  They're also , in my opinion, not a bad team, one blowout loss aside. Ottawa wasn't winless. Not great, but your statement is still untrue. Hamilton is terrible, I'll give you that. Calling the Esk roster from last week "way worse" is a stretch and you know it.

It was 17-3 riders early in that game. We let you up off the matt. Something we will not do next week

Difference is I am not claiming the riders are a great team. We are finding our way and getting our feet under us now.  You guys are doing the big talking about your team, qb, rb..

The top team in the league has the right to have confidence.

You can do whatever you want to this Matt guy you speak of but as for THE mat, you're right because the Bombers won't be on it.

I'm sorry, you are correct, Ottawa had a win when you played them.

Confident is exactly how we want you to be when you get here.  No need to worry about a bad team like the Riders upsetting your mystifying winning streak.

And no need to worry about a fluky team like the Bombers upsetting the sudden juggernaut that is the Saskatchewan Roughriders. I can practically hear the ripped off Chelsea fight song playing already. The Bombers won't be the overconfident ones. Book it.

I hate to admit it, but the Riders might be the hottest team in the league right now. Yes we have won 5 straight but the Riders have dominated against 2 western opponents. Labour Day is set up to be a hum dinger! We need to stay with the Riders in the first half. I think a key for us will be giving Matt time in the pocket.

[Jpan85]

Let the Rider fans yap. Just like the Bombers stay silent go do your job and the rest will take care of its self when the clock hits 0. Just like O'Shea says the guys on the team know they will win it's just how.

[Noeller]

Stop arguing with trolls... Next week will take care of next week.

I've never seen a team that's lost so much in the past three years have such an ignorant, loud fan base. Congrats to getting to getting to 500. That must be quite the accomishnement after being the laughing stock of the CFL for the last couple of years. There's absolutely zero fear of us coming into Saskatchewan next week. Heck we've owned you guys in your own barn lately so stop yapping. Still last in the West, and not going anywhere with a 40 year old Kevin Glenn. I just hope you're man enough to come around here in two weeks when you're 4-6.
