Grey Cup - Game Week Thread

[Mark H.]

If the Als D doesn't score any points today...the Argos mostly like win the game.

ZC & Co. - take note of this fact.

Limit turnovers, bring in extra olineman for protection and have Zach have a good playoff game. Today's game was game planned around running all game and not having Zach throw for 300 yards. A bad Zach vs Cody is still in our favor but, Montreal D cannot be taken lightly. Smart decisions have to be made, Chad Kelly said it best, he tried forcing the ball when it wasn't there and Montreals D absolutely took advantage every time they could.

ZC ,needs to step up his game ,no doubt.

[GCn20]

Complete lack of class by Kelly running straight to the dressing room at the end of the game. On the field and off his lack of character showed up. This is why Dinwiddie coddled him all season.

He threw a couple today that looked close to getting picked live. Not sure how they looked on TV.

On one the ,DB made a good play ,the other we got a PI call.

I didn't see Schoen on the sideline today even though he was there in a previous game after being injured.

[MOBomberFan]

Zach to become the first QB to start 4 consecutive Grey Cup games in CFL history. Our Collaros trade thread from back in the day continues to age like the finest of vintages haha

Fajardo’s losing streak vs. Winnipeg lives on, he pouts, I laugh. Everyone wins.

[rebusrankin]

Don't turn the ball over and play D like today.

What do you think for the cup, most rider fans cheering against Faj or against Winnipeg?

[BigBlue]

I do not know when they vote on MOP bur Brady vs Kelly is not leaving much room for favoritism after today's two games

Game plan should be quite similar in terms of containing Fajardo and making him read the field from the pocket.  
 

Need to cover returns and keep the ball on O, be patient.

Votes were submitted earlier this week so the decision has already been made.  Technically, the playoffs aren't supposed to dictate the winners of the awards, but I think we were shown who the true MOP is in the division finals.

[Mike]

Schoen is going to play. I think he has one game left in him before that ankle goes and he was saving it for the Cup.

[Booch]

If our defence plays with that energy and continued pursuit like they did last night...and did what they did to The Vaj...well the Faj has no hope and it will actually look comical with him doing his Faj like stuff in the pocket and getting swallowed up play after play

[JuranBoldenRules]

Montreal making the Cup has also just mind ****** Rider fans who now think somehow their season would have turned out differently with Maas and Fajardo.

Really couldn’t have been a better result for my viewing pleasure.

But...you don’t want to be the footnote in history with the picture of Fajardo standing there holding a Grey Cup.  I can’t believe the line is only 6.5, but still need to take this seriously.

Faj Vs Zac. 2 ex Rider QBs. It’s glory to behold. 

[rebusrankin]

Imagine being a Rider fan. On one side, you have Fajardo and Maas. On the other you have the franchise and fanbase that you hate. It must be like deciding between a baseball bat to the head or a baseball bat to the nuts.

[JCon]

Grey Cup again. What an age we live in. Soak it in.

Just to be technical, ZC is not an ex Rider. At that time he was a transplanted WBB qb in waiting that sheltered him from their stink.

With all this excitement lately we still have to remind ourselves that the r Riders, not just the Argos/Lions/etc, do indeed suck.

This season must have been just the absolute worst. Think they're rebounding but fail in all the same spectacular ways and then they get to watch the Bombers take on faj and Maas in the Grey Cup.  

How much schadenfreude is too much?

[rebusrankin]

Another week has to help with Demski and Bailey, right?
