Ripper Posted October 4, 2015 Report Posted October 4, 2015 Losing week after week is getting hard on me also. Even good intentioned bantering back and forth is losing its charm. The Riders are just bad across the board this year. Haven't seen much to get excited about this year.
Goalie Posted October 4, 2015 Report Posted October 4, 2015 That Rider D is something really awful, they might be in trouble for a few years... Not sure you can fix that D in one off-season, very little canadian depth too. Taman won a cup yup but... man he might have screwed that team for a few years now. Lots of older players too, 4 or 5 players making over 1 million bucks a year, close to 1.5 million probably.... That team is in trouble going forward. one of the oldest if not the oldest teams in the league. Things aren't gonna be pretty in riderville for a little while i think.
DR. CFL Posted October 4, 2015 Report Posted October 4, 2015 It doesn't matter if you are the worst team in the CFL or the second worst. Crap is crap....which team has the loosest stool? They are both Shiiii........
LeBird Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Hold it, hold it! You guys are going much too soft here. When it was said we were very generous for those it need, that was for food right? I'm concerned you guys might want to give the Riders some (because we don't have many) good players. We have 4 wins and 2 moral victories so we more like kind of suck. They do... and that makes it more bearable. rebusrankin 1
AtlanticRiderFan Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Riders lead the league in moral victories... For what it's worth.
GCn20 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Riders lead the league in moral victories... For what it's worth. They lead the league in close losses not moral victories. There isn't a single loss this season for the Riders that, in my estimation, they outplayed or played on par with the opposition but came out on the wrong side of the scoreboard. Their close losses were never in doubt because in nearly every game that was close the opposition managed to leave a lot of points they should have had on the table. Unlike our two games where we were evenly matched against the Stampeders and outplayed the Eskies, the Rider games were close only in score. If a person didn't tally the score all game in the Riders games and based the win/loss solely on which team was more dominant the Riders would still have the same record this year whereas we have at least two to three losses this year where we were very evenly matched or dominant in the game and just had a bad break here or there.
bearpants Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Riders lead the league in moral victories... For what it's worth. We gotta be catching up after the Calgary and Edmonton games!
iso_55 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Riders lead the league in moral victories... For what it's worth. We gotta be catching up after the Calgary and Edmonton games! Yeah, it's all about those 2 moral victories.

Ottawa can field a playoff team as a two year old expansion and other teams have turned things around in a couple of year with the right people in charge, so who knows? If Tillman returns and the Riders make the playoffs next year, I will be apoplectic.

Ripper Posted October 9, 2015 Report Posted October 9, 2015 Riders lead the league in moral victories... For what it's worth. We gotta be catching up after the Calgary and Edmonton games! I think the Bombers are leading the league in game busting bad calls by the refs. You guys have had some costly penalties at bad times late in the game. But don't be thinking you guys are stealing our first overall pick, we fired Taman so he couldn't trade it and have Kerry Joseph on speed dial if we need to. In fact we threw the games against you because we knew those points would be big later in the season.

We spent ours in last years supplemental draft.

Brandon Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 How bad is this Riders defense? Would this be considered the worst cfl defense in the last 15 years?? I do find it hilarious reading riderfans and them now only realizing that Taman sucked and finally realized that the guy never builds great teams.

Not everyone was a big Brendan fan, but definitely many believed he was doing a good job.
IC Khari Posted October 14, 2015 Author Report Posted October 14, 2015 Ya, just a few Green Kool aid drinkers LOL ...
Tracker Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 That Kool Aid is red not green. That's a reference to a certain member of the Possum Lodge.

17to85 Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 How bad is this Riders defense? Would this be considered the worst cfl defense in the last 15 years?? 15 years? No maybe 10 though, I'd have a hard time rating any defence behind the crap that Jim Daley put us through.
