Even with all the experience Glenn isnt a better QB than Evans at this point.

I very strongly disagree with this point.

Moot point anyway as Glenn option has been ruled out.

Watford signed before Drew Willy?!  Damn, I guess Willy is as lowly regarded an option as there ever was.

#ridernation I have a feeling the @Wpg_BlueBombers are going to be looking over their shoulders very soon. @sskroughriders @PifflesPod

Here’s hoping that Hamilton takes care of these upstarts..

At Calgary and Edmonton... absolutely.

Like really??...cause they beat BC and TO and have a not very good QB.. and a defense this year that is not top 2 in league..maybe 4th or 5th best...but yeah I guess we will be looking "back" over out shoulder at a 4th place club at best

Dane Evans had a decent start last year against Montreal,  I wouldn't write him off as crap just yet. 

I hope the riders just keep looking better and better. Will make it all the sweeter when the bombers ******* crush their delusion of a playoff berth/win.

Nah, keep being trash

Riders are going to beat the Ticats. Not sold at all on Dane Evans as a QB and Sask's D Line can get after the quarterback. Riders are at home too. I really don't like Hamilton's chances.

The Riders are 3/3 and their last 9 are: Winnipeg, Winnipeg, Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg, Calgary, B.C., Edmonton, Edmonton. I don't see them winning enough in the second half to be a threat to us, Edmonton or Calgary.

3/3 beating the Lions and Argos, a combined 1-12 record, and if they hadn't had a game against each other it might well be 0-13. Yeah the Riders have a hell of a lot to prove before anyone fears them. 

Interesting that Collaros was eligible to begin practising this week but was a no-show at today's practice, maybe another stint on the 6 game or retirement pending.

That was a game where we were gifted an unfortunate (for the cats) QB injury. All we had to do was score a few points on offense and the game was ours but for some reason we could not do it. VERY disconcerting that a seasoned veteran QB like Matt Nichols armed with arguably the best collection of talent we have had in years couldn't muster a few more points. That was a golden opportunity wasted. Crap.

The comment you made was that "WITH THEIR BACKUP QB" they made us look like "pure crap", which is not the case at all.  The fact that Nichols was in a funk and couldn't pull it out of the fire has nothing to do with how Hamilton's backup QB played.

How about a smidgen of respect to HAMs defense ?

Nope 

It's always our offense 100%

For the people who laugh at CFL 2.0. This is just one of many guys Brandon Colliers group have gotten D1 opportunities. In a few years there is going to be some very talented players starting in the CFL from Europe.

No evidence to suggest Edwards has anything to do with 3downnation anymore or is even employed by local rag. Byline has disappeared for awhile now.

What happened to Drew Edwards?  Did I miss something?

The ints weren't great plays, they were being in the right spot to capitalize on over throws and one of the fumbles on a return was the guy dropping the ball, the other the returner ran into his own guy which put him off balance and led to poor ball security. So yeah Hamilton was opportunistic, but those mistakes were bomber sloppiness more than anything.

As I posted earlier.....it was mentioned on the CJOB pre-game show that he's apparently the webmaster for the Hamilton Spectator (??) website....

its hard to sweep a team. I see them winning 3 of those games max.

Honestly if you beat the pressure you crush their Defense. I dont think its a great D by any means. But it is good at what it does.

I will agree that they did well at bringing pressure.

He played as well and scored as many points as our seasoned veteran QB. That shouldn't happen. Hence, crap.

Bah! Your D sucks against the run. Why we didn't run against you is a complete mystery. Had you shut down our run and forced Nichols to pass it would be different. Even then, for some reason Nichols was floating beach balls out there. Any D would have looked good against us.
