    ha yeah Matt insisted on telling the entire Banjo Bowl story, even with Rod continually saying "we don't need to repeat what Westwood said" and interrupting as Matt was trying to tell the story. Matt just kept going, including correcting Black when he said that Westwood had recanted his banjo-pickin' inbred comment, by saying "yeah, he said that 80% of the people in Saskatchewan can't play the banjo!!" Ha ha ha I was loving that. You know Suits wouldn't ever go there.

    Full house, plenty of noise.... Penalty on KO, has Bombers back on their 10 Streveler then sacked at the 2...... ...but then rumbles up the middle for a 2nd and 17 first down... Adams swing pass, Augustine run, Sask IC penalty...... Streveler hits Adams across the middle for 20.... Big Chris then beats 3 Rider tacklers to set up 3rd and 1 Streveler converts, Augustine trap run for 9, pounds for another 5 Johnson gets called for roughing on Streveler. FD on the 12 Jump ball thrown up deep in endz one for Adams..... Riders take 3rd penalty of drive with a PI. Marshall dances round idiotically.... Strev pushes it in for the TD. 8:30 minute 100 yard drive.... Some real noise coming out of the stands.... Gaitor cuts inside, and drills Powell on sweep Richardson on 3 man rush, beats 2 guys...Jefferson cleans up with sack. Bust in Rider secondary....but wide open Woltman is overthrown by Streveler Fajardo shakes off sack from Nevis and completes couple of balls.... Rough play penalty on Roh, gives Riders first down on Bomber 12 2nd down, Fajardo gets big heat. Pass incomplete. FG makes it 7-3 Bailey catches ball 5 yards short of marker...but Sask takes the face mask... Streveler has Woltman wide open again....and misses him again... ....these guys really live together? Streveler goes up the gut, runs right over Judge...and keeps rumbling down to the 12... Streveler runs for 7, then floats pass to Petermann in end zone. TD. 14-3 Another clock eating TD drive....this time 6 and a half minutes..... On 2nd and 3, Powell is completely stuffed by Jake Thomas.... Bomber DL pushing around the Rider OL, at this point... Next series....Riders don't run ball on 2nd and 2....pass incomplete... Rider OL back on their heels.....Bomber DT's pushing them round... Grant comes up on short punt....finds a seam, then turns up the sideline... ....and breezes into the endzone for the 70 yd punt return TD.... 21-3. Fajardo floats long pass to Evans...broken up by Sayles... Augustine runs for nada, then catches pass for nada.... Nick Marshall keeps shoving guys after the play....should be flagged... Jefferson comes right between the tackles untouched...and cranks Fajardo.... ...ball comes lose...Bombers recover on Rider 32.... Streveler finds Woltman, then Peterman, who rumbles down to the 5.... Augustine pounds down to the 1. Streveler bashes in. 28-3 Bombers... The short handed Blue are really putting it to the Riders, now 2nd half starting just like the first... Sayles nice tackle on Manny A....stopping him 2 yards short of marker.... Bailey takes swing pass for 14. Streveler with fake sweep hand off....then fakes a draw...finally steps back in pocket ....and has Augustine behind everyone....drops it in there....a 58 yard kill shot. 35-3....with the way we are hitting on D....forget it. Guess the Riders still have their Big Play Chains locked in the trunk..... Thigpen really taking some knocks on the kick returns by multiple Bombers... Their run game? 2nd and 1...Powell takes ball in backfield...nailed for 5 yd loss... Another Bailey sweep for 15. Bombers better on attacking edge, this week... Fajardo uses his spin move on 3 occasions and couple of passes..... His 10 yd TD run....makes it 35-10. End of the 3rd.... Petermann another catch....all this guy does is make plays... Some more big time work by Bomber cover teams....gunners galore... Bighill still missing couple of tackles today..... Marshall throws sneak punch at somebody downfield. Idiot. Bomber O going Augustine run - Strev run - punt. Just killing time. Medlock has hit some beauties today.... Bombers now dropping back a million guys on D.... Fajardo is hit and chucks up a long floater, while falling to the turf.... ...not a great idea with Winston Rose on the other end. INT. Fajardo tries spin move on Hecht for second time and loses 13 yards... Augustine finding tough going on the 1st down runs.... Bailey falls down running down the field....but MOS challenges anyways... ....sparking some antics from Gainey...their other secondary idiot.... Harker in at QB...throws a pass to Manny A. who takes the ball away from Sayles ...down to the Bomber 5. Perhaps a consolation score? or not.....Harker fakes hand off on 3rd and 3....nobody buying this..... ...as 3 Bombers surround, then squash Harker to the turf. Turnover Things getting chippy as Augustine pounds out runs of 9, 6, then 10 yards.. Bombers in victory formation....Marshall punches another Bomber.... More scrums....continuing after final gun. Bit late to show some fight.... Bombers are 2 game clear of everybody...with much needed bye coming up... I am clear of gin stocks, with a much needed pause coming up...

    a lot of this stuff about the crowds goes back to my long-held belief that we actually have more die-hard fans who are intelligent football fans. They definitely have a lot more "casual" fans that buy all the green gear because it's trendy to do so, but in terms of the true die-hards, who stick around through thick and thin, I really and truly believe we have a lot more of those. They don't need to be told when to make noise and when NOT TO make noise....they just understand football.

    Rider fans seem to think he can't throw. Nevermind the 70% completion rate and 2 tds he had on Saturday. Those don't count.

    That was the original thought, although that article is dated (Feb - 2019) Noeller is right. I read/heard the same thing. There was a misconception on Nichols contract and Bauming/Hamilton has cleared up that misconception. Edit

    Lots of "I'm worried about this team or that team" right now. Here's my take; we only need to worry about 1 team. The Bombers. If they're on, there isn't a team that can run with them. Period. So that means that maybe, we call all just take a deep breath and let them do this thing, one game at a time.

    Youre wrong. Thats how bend but dont break defense works. Look at our 2 games against edmonton. 61/94 for 65% completion percentage 775 yards 8.25 yards per attempt and we beat them both times. Are the riders a passing team though? 5th in the league in passing yards, 8th in passing tds, 3rd fewest passing attempts etc. You have a good completion % and average but that is not indicative of a passing team. Volume is.

    I think you may be right. there were a few of the deeper throws you could see instantly that he knew he simply missed. The guy is smart, he knows what he does well out there and what he doesn't. Got a lot of time for a physical freak who knows he has to keep improving.
  26. 3 points
    Frankly...and this is just one guy's opinion...I think his deep ball misses are a by-product of his natural arm strength (he doesn't get much air under the deep balls) and his enthusiasm and adrenaline. He spots a guy, his eyes get wide as saucers and he let's it fly. When he settles in and settles down a bit I think he'll dial in those throws. Heck, Nichols has years under his belt as a starter and still misses those deep balls sometimes. I think Chris has tons of upside. He just needs the reps and good coaching.

    Let’s not forget that Streveler only had two college seasons as a starting QB before coming to the CFL. Both highly athletic and intelligent - he’s already got a masters degree in sport management. His second go as a CFL starter has quite an encouraging trajectory. His passing will only get better as the game slows down for him.

    Was going to say the same. Black still has a few good moments now and then, but yesterday some of his descriptions were cringe-worthy. Not sure why he seems to have so much trouble with the yardage. I rarely notice that with other PBP announcers. A couple weeks back, there was the Edmonton field goal right down main street... but wide. And yesterday Ryan was supposedly angling his punt toward the sideline, yet it was caught smack dab between the hash marks. Maybe an eye exam is in order.
