I agree completely… Dickensen and O’Day should be signed to long term extensions… make sure they get Fajardo locked in long term while they’re at it… great work guys, nothing would make me happier than seeing more of what we saw this year from the riders

First one was at home… and we have another bye after the next game

I can think of one… Edit: I see this joke has been made a few times already 😂

The biggest things we should all be watching are the play of the secondary, oline, and of course QB… receiver, defensive front 7 (with Clements back from injury and Darby back in blue), and RBs are all the regulars… I think that helps Brown that he’ll have some play makers to get the ball to - Schoen, Demski, Oliveria, etc.

You’re right…. Especially considering the conversation you quoted was about drew desjarlais 😆

I realize you posted this before the cal/ham game…. But that ham win pretty much seals the riders playoff fate… they now need to either sweep Calgary and hope hammy loses at least one to Ottawa or beat Calgary once and hope Ottawa sweeps… Hamilton controls their fate

I think it was agreed that we are axing this nickname... Duke doesn't play for the bombers... a classy, quality receiver does... and he deserves a better nickname.

Clements is a couple notches below Wilson... but still a couple notches above Gauthier and Briggs... having Clements back would be a nice boost to that position.

these two statements are saying exactly the same thing, just worded differently....

Maybe I should've omitted "again".... but anyways, you get my point... it would be hilarious to see that fanbase lose their minds if he somehow became successful on another team

Two things… beating the riders at their home (our second home) in the GC would, of course, be extremely satisfying… but 1) the riders likely aren’t going to make the playoffs and 2) even if they sneak in, they’ll get killed in Toronto or Montreal in the east semis… and as many people mentioned, it doesn’t matter who or where we play, the team goal is 1-0 every week… and that doesn’t change if we’re playing on nov 20 ps…. that ended up being like 4 or 5 things

You know what would be hilarious… if Fajardo went to another team next year (say Ottawa or even Hamilton)… they surrounded him with good skill position players, an oline, and a good system… and then he turned out to be good again 😂 😂

Assuming Zach doesn’t suffer any major injuries (insert obligatory knock on wood)… I don’t see why he’s couldn’t be a very effective player for another 3-5 years

I don’t follow the Argos very closely but I’ve never heard of either Churchill or Giffen… meanwhile the bombers got the league MOP and a top 3 P/k in the league… I’d say that trade worked out ok

You’re 100% right and I think most rider fans are getting on board with this too… but my advice to the riders would be to sign O’Day and Dickensen to long term extensions and make sure they get Fajardo locked up long term too… this current version of the riders is my most favourite version to watch

Hey, when you don’t win many actual football games… you try to find wins where you can… I say let ‘em have it 😂

Just think… if they had beaten edm in a gimme game and the bombers hadn’t laid and egg in hammy… the riders would basically be clinched into the cross over 😂

I don’t think there’s an argument at all… with the exception of a broken play here and there from Buck … Kevin Glenn was consistent a better QB

The difference is we knew the bombers were a long shot and probably not a true contender… the riders came into this year thinking this team was loaded up and “all in” for a cup run… and they’ll likely miss the playoffs

meanwhile the Bombers were just pumping out HoF QBs left, right and centre after Kelly released Glenn...

Don't forget the Bombers clinched first with that 45-0 blowout of BC... and still played all their regulars the next week against Mtl.... it was the following week - in Mtl - where we played a bunch of back ups and had a real stinker... And yes, it did work out in the end... but the WF was way closer than it should've been with the Bombers constantly shooting themselves in the foot... and the first 3 quarters of the GC were ugly too

What I meant is it'll be interesting if he makes it to the Grey Cup playing for Toronto... against Winnipeg... eyeing up his 5th GC loss in 6 years

I don't really see it as an issue... He's not going to anticipate a botched punt... the Sask punter is generally really good and that one muff ended getting a lucky Sask bounce... like an outfielder in baseball, better to be too deep than have the ball go over your head...

He plays for Toronto now, right?.... hmmm, could be interesting if he makes it back to the big game

stop trying to ruin my joke!
