Posted July 14, 201410 yr comment_66434 Kirk Penton @PentonKirk 1m A CFL source says the #Riders are signing running back Will Ford. Gets a signing bonus and chance to be No. 1 tailback.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66436 Oh CFL - you teeny tiny league, you. Rather than bothering with trades, GMs should just haul their players out to the curb for other GMs to pick up when they drive by.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66437 Surprising. Can't believe they are trying so hard to replace Allen, guy looks like a player, couple fumbles by a RB he's done?
July 14, 201410 yr Author comment_66438 Losing a lot of respect for Chamblin as a coach the way he is handling his running backs.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66439 What are they doing? Giving Ford a chance at the top spot? That would be hilariously insane. I've said it before and I'll say it again - I don't think Chamblin is a great coach. He's just smart enough to surround himself with outstanding coordinators.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66441 Losing a lot of respect for Chamblin as a coach the way he is handling his running backs. I agree. He's going way overboard with these fumbles.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66444 Good on will.. Got stuck up in a weird numbers crunch here.. Same situation where he's going.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66446 At least he is not going to the Esks (this week) to tell them our offensive schemes. I'm just being paranoid, please bear with me...
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66450 Good on will.. Got stuck up in a weird numbers crunch here.. Same situation where he's going. Well, no.. I don't think saskabush has a grigsby or cotton he has to get thru.. They have a noname, a guy who fumbled and is in the doghouse and Messam. Not sure if he is battling Messam for a job or just the other guys but his path to the rock isn't as steep as it was here..
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66453 Anthony Allen is leading the league in rushing but sure lets create a log jam at the runningback position in Saskatchewan.. But that's really none of my business.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66454 Forget the all star verdict as Ford is an average running back at best. I have no idea why Chamblin & Cortez are doing what they're doing. And I don't really care.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66455 Losing a lot of respect for Chamblin as a coach the way he is handling his running backs. Is the contract nullified if he drops the pen while signing?
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66456 Ford is basically the same player as Hugh Charles, only Charles has been more successful when made the feature guy. They've already got Allen/Charles/Messam, why Ford?
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66461 Strange, seems sask is struggling with the losses which is causing them to over react? Players are going to make mistakes, but I'm not sure the RB fumbles are the reason for sask losses. It looked to me that offence as a whole has been ****. Perhaps they are suffering form a greycup hangover and thought they would be on top automatically and some players/coaches didn't put in the work in training camp? Regardless , good for will ford , and there is still plenty of time for sask to turn it around. For all we know we could go winless the rest of the season, but our team looks far superior then the eastern teams,
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66470 I agree with Rebus they already have Charles who is better?? All I see in this is Saskatchewan digging themselves in a bigger hole rather then admitting that they made a mistake.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66471 Chamblin put himself in a hole expecting perfection. Allen fumbles...benched,..Charles fumbles ....benched.
July 14, 201410 yr comment_66478 The Riders starting running back will be a guy who isn't good enough to be our backup. I absolutely love it.
