Seconded. Not saying anybody is flat out wrong but holy **** this place is depressing. It's like the polar opposite of TEP where the bombers have never once ever done anything wrong. 

Where's my happy medium?

No ****- I used to laugh at riderfans when they would implode after a loss- but we have completely outdone anything I have seen on RF in the past few years... It is amazing that 5-6 posters can out do RF like that.

You want a happy medium from us die hards?

I felt like this was an 11-7 kind of year with the injuries we had to start and some concerns about the roster. We may be that, we may be better, we may be worse. Right now, lots of concerning things. Brady being hurt and already missing time is a huge one for me.

Darren Cameron too. That guy does a lot to bring players in. Unsung hero. 

Excellent point!

I thought we would be 11-7 plus 2 or minus 1. At this point I think it’s 11-7 +1 or minus 2.

Ok, to appease a few on here..
I’m really pumped to see what Wheatfall can bring. 
I like Bonds, think he can be a legit star. 
 

After seeing how bad BC’s offensive linemen sucked last game, I’d rather our problems than theirs at the moment. 

Agree with both of those. Adam’s and fox as well.

I’m thinking around there.

Silver lining, 11-7 might still be good enough to win the division this year. Every team has at least one glaring weakness, I don’t see a lot of pack separation tbh

I excited for Wheatfall...passes the eye test and skill package

Love Bonds too....defense as a whole I like...well liked more last game...but will really love if we go back to more of what we had in week 1 with a few minor tweaks and an add or 2

I more concerned with...and have been for a while with how we have no forward plan in place...heck no real short term plan for in season issues and a heavy reliance on older players...tenured players and a perceived coaches vendetta against certain things...that compound it...and been on going

It's an easy fix...but the next 6 weeks or so will be very telling on how the season goes...and ends

Gonna be a dog fight this yr for sure...but younger...hungrier dogs generally win....

Since some on here (after one game) think our dominant period is over, it’s the end of an era etc. 😉, here’s an oldie but goodie about the past …

 

It’s not just 1 game now tho. It’s 2 years. That’s what I was told.

No, what I meant was look around - this isn’t a “Booch and I” thing anymore.

True..and to be honest I have some concerns as well. I think where we differ is on how deep the problem is.

That video makes me appreciate lapolice way more. I just learned things. I see Zach holding on to the ball lots also and kinda staring receivers down instead of taking the short stuff. 

ZC has always been a downfield passer. And to be fair, they have provided him with receivers who do that well.

Posted (edited)

Zach lives and dies on the big play. He’s not a 10 play 90 yards guy. He’s a 3 play 90 yards guy. This is part of the problem in my opinion now that he’s getting older and has been hurt a bit. He’s starting to look shell shocked at times. I noticed that Last year. The deer in headlights look. Drew Willy had it. 

For the life of me I’ll never understand the QB who stands there oblivious to the 3 guys about to pounce him. Zach is likely to be carted off one of these games.  
 

I do think Montreal tho has a hell of a D tho and I’m not sure if buck can figure them out.  This weeks game will be telling. If we get last week Zach uh oh, if we don’t, we beat a perennial loser Ottawa team.  Is it kinda no win tomorrow? Lose ? This place gonna hand out ban hammers. Win? We beat Ottawa… well woopedidooo

Love it! Thanks for pointing this out. Exactly the type of content I've been looking for to get more in-depth analysis.

A half truth at best!

There have been literal comparisons to the Argos

And yet we have managed to the grey cup 4 years in a row in the more difficult division. And the Argos were basically one and done.

I don’t disagree that there’s been some poor decisions made at times regarding playing injured players in the cup and how many of x position to dress for x game. But that’s basically where the shortcomings of this organization ends. The team went to the grey cup 4 times and won 2 over the span of 5 years. Now they’re doing a mini rebuild while more than likely remaining competitive. Cry me a river. Who else is even going to the cup twice in a row these days?
