IC Khari Posted July 17, 2016 Report Posted July 17, 2016 We have 2 points, the Riders have 0, that will have to do for now in the reasons to get excited as a Bomberfan ...

And yet their backup quarterback looked way better than our number one, and the Riders were in the game right to the end. Those who have been longing for Durant, behold his brittleness. He's not the answer, either.
Fatty Liver Posted July 17, 2016 Report Posted July 17, 2016 Apparently Durant has a sprained ankle, might keep him out of the next game but not much more. Won't matter they play the RB's next week.
Blueandgold Posted July 17, 2016 Report Posted July 17, 2016 Riders secondary is so bad. Might be a bigger problem than their lack of a back up QB.

Eternal optimist Posted July 17, 2016 Report Posted July 17, 2016 I respect our neighbors to the West, but damn I love watching them lose. Personally this clip never gets old for me.

Ripper Posted July 18, 2016 Report Posted July 18, 2016 I know our qb situation is giving you guys some amusement but we'll be fine. DD out 1 or 2 games and Gale looks fine. The Riders are playing like crap on many fronts, but qb isn't the issue. Gale played good, key drops by Roosevelt, Chiles, and Bagg and bad times hurt us. No running game hurt us. All 3 starting Canadians on our oline out hurt us. It was when Labatte took the nasty knee to back of head that things went south for us. DD hurt on dirty shot, what a surprise. Brooks takes 3 nasty shots on our qbs and we have to challenge just to get a call, looks bad on the league whether you hate the riders or not. I'm not happy about a lot of things I seen from the Riders that's for sure.

Many were assuming that the Riders were going to be bottom-feeders this season and thus save the Bombers from that disgrace, and this was due in no small part to Chris Jones' abrasive personality. Gale looked like yet another promising QB that the Bombers passed on, but the jury is still out on him. At this point it looks like first place in the next draft will go to whomever has the worst quarterback this season. Toss-up.

I know but its still BS. Brooks accidently rolls into Durants leg that he just came off a Achilles tear?? What a coincidence. Anyway, I'm not a sucky fan, crap happens, its part of the game. At this point we have much larger problems than DD missing a couple games

I've said this before. It burns me to no end that a ref standing 10 feet from the f'n qb can't see a headshot. WTF are they watching if not the qb. Seriously needs to be addressed.

Besides, the officials are too busy with challenges to be throwing penalty flags. Games would take forever.

Based on what I've seen of those two flunkies in the past, I'd be VERY afraid if they came anywhere near my club (we've already experienced one of them).....Now watch for the announcement that this Deeeemarco fellow is headed for the Peg..The perils of posting 'for sures' in this league...lol

WTF are they watching if not the qb. Seriously needs to be addressed. The obvious answer lies in post-game film review by the league. If an illegal hit is missed but identified later, the penalties would kick in, and if an illegal hit sidelines a player, the offender gets suspended as long as the victim.
