That was the legendary missed FG followed by a bunch or kicks in and out of the end zone leading to a Rider win. Let’s hope history is more on our side this time! https://youtu.be/Pmm6lGbdsOk Speedflex has only relived the agony of those last few minutes on these forums oh, about 100 times at least. Thankfully my Bomber memories only start kicking in around 1980 so I have no knowledge of that game. Edited November 30, 20213 yr by kelownabomberfan
November 30, 20213 yr comment_541439 Most of the Rider big plays on O, consist mostly of Fajardo with the playground stuff. Not sustainable....
November 30, 20213 yr comment_541440 Well might as well be the one contrarian here...thought Fajardo played well using his legs and the short to intermediate pass is his game. Couple of bad picks that he overcame. I never like to underestimate an opponent and Sask will have no pressure on them. Tough game for us but i know MOS will have us as ready as we can be..
November 30, 20213 yr comment_541442 When should the game be over? I'm trying to figure out how long it will take to get from the stadium to the arena. Seriously considering re selling my Leafs/Jets tix after that **** tonight.

Game should be done by 6, hockey starts at 7.

They are following their orders to protect the QB (someone has to on and off the field and it isn't happening on it). Suitor said in the first half that it was all on Fajardo for locking in and staring down his receiver which he was doing.

November 30, 20213 yr comment_541453 The only opinions from TSN I care about: TSN panel supposedly discussing the West Semi-final: Milt: If the the Riders think they can play like that against Winnipeg next week (and win), they got another thing coming. Matt: You're darn right.

Watching morons like Fajardo, Shaq Evans, Nick Marshall, and Ed Gainey lose composure on a regular basis I would say we have a massive advantage in that department. I mean really...Shaq Evans quit on his QB on Sunday...literally...Nick Marshall with a 15 yard roughing penalty has become a weekly occurrence, Fajardo playing inconsistently from series to series, and Ed Gainey getting beat on a deep ball or two....these are weekly occurrences in Riderland this year and they occurred yesterday too. Do that against the Bombers and it will be a blowout. If Mitchell could hit the side of a barn this year the Riders would have gotten pasted yesterday. I’ve got a good amount of confidence in the Bombers this week, but there’s always a little doubt/what if thought in the back of my mind that others have mentioned. That said, the one thing I have confidence in is that Ed Gainey is going to take a moronic penalty or get badly beaten on a terrible read.

Wow....Noeller's revelations earlier, and now JCon coming out as the son of a Rider fan....I have new found respect for mental health awareness because of this thread. I mean we all have mommy issues to some degree....but a mother who is a Rider fan....that's gotta be tough.

Lose and under the bus everyone else goes. Difference being Burris has actually backed up his talk at times and led his teams when it mattered. Fajardo has one MOP nomination and has had fat-head syndrome ever since. 9 hours ago, do or die said: Most of the Rider big plays on O, consist mostly of Fajardo with the playground stuff. Not sustainable.... Lemon's ejection at half-time really hindered the Stampeders' ability to contain Fajardo in the second half, IMO. 77 of his 89 rush yards came in the second half. That being said, the Bombers' D-line is leaps and bounds ahead of the Stampeders' and we saw how woefully ineffective Fajardo was in both games during the season vs. WPG. There is nothing to suggest Sunday's game will be any different, especially with the crowd noise.
November 30, 20213 yr comment_541469 I love a Rider team coming in feeling good about itself. We always smack them down to reality.

I don't think they can." I hate that franchise top to bottom. Where is this ridiculousness from? I'm also going to assume he only watched the 2nd half of the Bombers last regular season game.

November 30, 20213 yr comment_541473 Just to remind Zach Evans... the combined score in 2 games vs the riders this year was like 65 to 15. Did they even put up a TD against us?
November 30, 20213 yr comment_541474 The last two games of the year left a sour taste in my mouth. I hope they come out on Sunday and set the tone right away. Don't let that Saskatchewan team off the mat. Play smart physical football on both sides of the ball - punch them in the mouth (over and over again). Let them know they have no business being in the same building with us.

November 30, 20213 yr comment_541490 I hope we don't get suckered by stupid penalties........AND we have to be wary of their 'trick plays' they seem to come up with......Maybe we should have one of our own, besides the Jeffs pummeling Faj ,and making him see crossbars
