Ottawa - can’t say. They haven’t really done a single thing in game worth celebrating yet.

yeah, and everyone outside that top tier is either a broken underperforming veteran or an Argonaut.

Milt and “butts and guts” as he called him would not get along well on the panel. 

What is Nik referring to? 

Montreal impressed me big time. They are going to be tough. Legit GC contenders. 

[do or die]

Cats were in that game, until the late turnover/TD in the first half.   They folded up like a cheap tent, after that.  Might as well stayed in the room for that 2nd half............................

[Dr Zaius]

Bombers and Riders best teams in the league so far this year.

Awesome! LDC/banjo bowl are gonna be great.

There is a Rider board where you can go gush about this mediocre QB

[Bigblue204]

Riders Oline played way better than expected. But against a beat up Dline. 

Hamilton is who I thought they were, a soft team. Bring the lumber and make them think about those foot steps and they fold. 

Also holy hell, I've never see a Dline have such a hard time with the 1 yard rule lol. I couldn't believe they took ANOTHER penalty on it when Masoli scored....like what are you not understanding??? 1 yard off the ball, don't go past the goal line! Lol. Was humorous to watch that's forsure.

Never got the Hamilton hype..their season last yr was more smoke and mirrors than Saks...after week 2 i would rate it as wpg..mtl..t.o..bc..and Sask in that order..Sask slipped by the noodle arm and crappy kicker to eek out a win...BC will be getting better and better if the duct tape holds Reilly together..after that the rest are a mish mash if garbage so far

Based on they scored more points..I'll take the 2-0 team that's given up 6.5 points a game over the one giving up 18.5 a game anyway 

And the same point differential to boot..

Riders are ******* trash and will get found out.

Surprises me that teams haven't adjusted to just play contain on fajardo. Keep him in the pocket what's he gonna do? Throw up a duck for the secondary to make a play on?

I love this place, it is actually comical coming here and reading the takes of how trash the Riders are. They just steamrolled a team that you guys beat last week by way less of a margin but that win shouldnt count. I dont know why some of you guys have such a issue saying the Riders may actually have a good football team. Also Cody Fajardo looks like a starting QB not a medicore back up, hey booch? 

 

[Super Duper Negatron]

The Riders could go 18-0 and win the Grey Cup in a blowout and they would still suck. It's facts.

Hey what's the riders playoff record at their new stadium? Smoke and mirrors team.

It’s down right sad we have more playoff victories in their own barn then they do. We own the Riders when it counts.

What is it with Rider fans coming to the message boards of other clubs and getting pissy when people say their team ain't all that and a bag of chips?

And well deserved. That was a **** kicking. Makes sense they are at the top of the standings. Probably power rankings too. 

 

 

Doesn't matter though, Riders still suck. 

 

 

😁

 

Riders look legit though, should be an awesome LDC and BB.

U just encapsulated what ruderfans is all about doofus...Christ..and u can't compare one game to another..another typical Rider fan technique....and yup...Fajardo...he who is fifth in the league in passing right now ahead of backups only and 2 starters who have played one game and a lost Masoli..he's a star at a short pass and hoping his receivers make yards..anything he pushes down field is a tough task and most catches take a great play by receiver to bring down..or is a 50/50 duck...

Enjoy the early start to season tho..as when rubber hits the road their depth..or lack there of will be apparent..and again..why u here? Like on your sad site it's always a big issue and pitchfork fest when an opposing fan goes there to gloat...

The cats where heavily depleted after playing us last week. We tilted that offense and they are now gonna be spiraling for weeks. 

What do you expect the riders are the most toxic fan base in Canada. With the least grey cups of any cfl city. Look at the trolling and yapping you guys are doing on the un beaten grey cup Champs forum here. When we got beat in the play offs by Calgary do you think we were like you guys on their forum? The riders could triple their number of cups catch up with the big boys and will still be the red headed step child of the league. Cus that's how rfs act. 

And it's true the riders are getting by with smoke and mirrors in the  term it's good coaching. But good teams like ours can play containe and jump timing routes play robber bump and run etc all kinds of things to beat the gadget. At some point you have to be more than an offense dependant on gimmicks.

I'd think that's a stretch to say there is good coaching there...Dickenson has no control over the me first show boaters..selfish penalty takers..dumb drills that continued robbing them of players for the year..not to mention that embarrassing display on short yardage..if the cats didn't score when they did the riders were getting flagged again..for what..4th time in a row for the exact same infraction..like really???..piss poor coaching obviously..and or dumb as a stump personal..explain which it was smart boy

It's certainly not good over all coaching. Discipline goes hand in hand with head coaching. But Maas has done a good job this year with a game plan book and call that is good for Fajardo and covering up that oline. That's no easy feat. 

 I think Dickenson is gonna be out soon enough and Maas their hc. Probably end of this year. Or if they have an extended losing streak.

Leaving Fajardo in when the game was in hand and he had been rocked twice and limped off was the peak of bad coaching.
