Why would they need Joseph when they have a stud like Sunseri?

"That's all up to the coaches, realistically I think Tino is going to be the guy this week," said Taman. "Kerry's not coming in here to be a guy that stands there and holds a clipboard. He's here for a reason, he'll get thrown into the mix and see how he does. I think if Tino produces and plays as well as he can, he'll be the guy."

 

Hehe...heh...heh.. 

 

This is only funny because what faith (mgmt and fanbase) they showed in Sunseri - and how quickly they pulled him?  Now, Joseph is the next guy up after they throw Doege to the wolves against one of the best defense's in the league?  Oooook.  This is the running back situation all over.

Saw a link for a story about a derailment and fire in Saskatchewan - imagine my surprise in finding out this wasn't about the riders.

Even our friendly neighbourhood riderfans can't be bothered to come here and try to put some shine on this turd.

What do you want to discuss?

Casey Printers should really answer his phone.

Nealon Greene refused to talk to Taman?

Just a back up for Sunseri. Tino will remain starter still.

To back up Tino. Doege is bad.

I'll see your loser horn and raise you a sad trombone...

Max Hall - dude - you should have known in the CFL there is a place for every bad QB as long as he has some experience, just as Joey Elliott and Alex Brink.

The consensus on Riderfans....is that this a sage move......

Even John Stamos gets it...

@PentonKirk Great move by the #Roughriders, though. They couldn't get Burris. Needed a veteran.

 

No .. it really isn't though .. it's a move born out of desperation .. similar to our move to sign Bishop under Kelly .. it's all about trying to salvage part of their season .. and I'm not sure you do that with a 41 year old quarterback who hasn't played a meaningful snap of football in two years.

Great move, Penton? To that I say HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Until he shits the bed again...

Tino is the starter for sure? Really, for a whole game this time? A quarter?

They've already pulled Tino though. How confident are they really?

I think the performance last game was convincing enough. Who knows, he could crap the bed again. But I think he has been a lot more confident since the Calgary game.

I'm genuinely curious how you can come to that conclusion. Have they even practiced since the game?

And trust me, we're Bomber fans. We are sceptical from years of experience. The next guy is always going to fine... Right?

Great move ?  To me its a giant white flag of how Riders have firetrucked talent evaluation of their backup QBs.

I'm left shaking my head...the more things change...the more they stay the same.

Joseph is an amazing athlete BUT I can't remember his last good game.  It's been years.

I'm thinking 2007.... that's not that long ago... right?

I concur.

replace last game with against Ottawa and how is that any different? You'll forgive me if I dismiss your opinion as uninformed, you were afterall on here just a week ago talking about how Doege was the man and better than Sunseri.
