Posted July 22, 20195 yr comment_409992 Looking into next week’s games..as we approach the 1st third of the season. Bye Montreal (or is it buy Montreal) Calgary at Ottawa Thursday MBB votes 28-0 Calgary Toronto at Edmonton Thursday MBB votes 26-2 Edmonton Winnipeg at Hamilton Friday MBB votes 26-2 Winnipeg Saskatchewan at BC Saturday MBB votes 15-13 Saskatchewan The schedule doesn’t do the Riders any favours. The next game for the Riders is on Thursday, 4 days later, hosting Hamilton. Winnipeg has forced 12 turnovers this season (8 interceptions, four fumbles), which is three times more than the four touchdowns they’ve had scored against them. You simply cannot run the ball effectively against the Bombers. They have yet to allow a rushing touchdown this season and are averaging less than 60 yards against per game. The #Bombers will remain in Ontario all next week between games in Hamilton on July 26 and in Toronto on August 1. - Darrin Bauming BC - Reilly’s protective detail for the game consisted of two backup guards, a guard at right tackle and the often-exploited Brett Boyko moving across to protect the blindside. Tackles David Foucault and Boyko continue to demonstrate that they lack the foot speed required for blocking athletes on the outside without help. 3DNation Foucault is no tackle.. Phillip Norman. A tackle in college, he finally earned a start at guard in his second year with the team. Why he and Foucault didn’t swap positions is a question in and of itself, but the Lions made the baffling decision to move him to centre when Roy went down. He promptly botched two shotgun snaps. If they can figure this out, and poor tackling, and poor angles to ball carriers, I’m taking BC to win. 😳 They have to.. Saskatchewan- Which Fajardo will show up in BC Saturday? Can he be pressured into making mistakes? Saskatchewan can win the series on Saturday, but I don’t think it matters in the big picture, they’re not going anywhere. Ottawa - Doesn't look like Davis will be available against Calgary. Jennings: It was frustrating that I couldn't find a rhythm tonight. Um, Jonathan, give the Bombers D some credit for not letting get any “rhythm”. Calgary - even after that somewhat lucky win vs Toronto, Calgary and Arbuckle get back in the groove against theses guys. Edited July 22, 20195 yr by Mr Dee

He still has a lot of fans here pulling for him and its nice to see a good guy making the most of his opportunity.

That is just insanely poor planning by the Lions. Reilly must have nightmares every night.
July 23, 20195 yr comment_410222 Gonna post a link to the original article quoted above ... it's a pretty good read about how **** the Lions are this year. https://3downnation.com/2019/07/21/players-in-positions-to-fail-and-6-other-thoughts-on-the-lions-loss-in-regina/

July 23, 20195 yr Author comment_410280 In the Week 7 pick ‘ems, there are no more shut out teams on the MBB board. All teams have been picked to win a game. Calgary 30-2 over Ottawa. Edmonton 29-3 over Toronto Winnipeg 29-3 over Hamilton And BC and Saskatchewan are even at 16 Odd that there are 2 Thursday night games, but I’m looking forward to them.. And how do they match up with their Nissan power rankings this week? I’d say pretty darn close. I’d have BC in last place (trending) but after they humble Saskatchewan on Sat., everything will be fine.
July 23, 20195 yr Author comment_410351 I see Hamilton dodged a scare when Breaux went down. In Bomber news...

July 23, 20195 yr comment_410399 No reason to cut his salary his replacement is making league minimum.

Could they not make cap room for some NFL cut that could help the team in the backfield or something? Im not at all saying that Matthews will not help the team when he does get on the field BTW.
July 23, 20195 yr comment_410449 Its a long season. Don't want to be in a situation we were in during the 2017 where we made the playoffs but had no depth because of a ton of injuries.

July 24, 20195 yr Author comment_410560 Saturdays’s must win game for the Lions. Riders Canadian offensive lineman Philip Blake is going to be out for a while.“Blake broke his leg, he had surgery this morning, he’ll be out for at least six weeks,” Saskatchewan head coach Craig Dickenson said. Also, LaBatte is not expected to play. Bladek?? Lean fixings for the Riders. Not to worry Head Coach Devon Claybrooks figures he has his Lions covered...“I have all these ingredients for this soup and I’m just trying to season it to get the right taste,” he said to BCLions.com on Tuesday. (Must be leak soup)
July 24, 20195 yr comment_410565 Fwiw, Esks with a **** ton of injuries this week.....they're hurting bad.
