Posted January 12, 201510 yr comment_102991 The #Riders have hired Greg Quick as their defensive co-ordinator. Former LB coach with #Alouettes. — Kirk Penton (@PentonKirk) January 12, 2015
January 12, 201510 yr comment_102993 That was ... Quick ... meanwhile the Bombers seems to be waiting a Hall lot longer.
January 12, 201510 yr comment_103000 Riders are in for a rough year. Unless Taman does some serious Free Agent voodoo (or just ignores the cap, surprise surprise) I could see the knives coming out for Shambles pretty early.
January 12, 201510 yr comment_103002 Greg Quick eh. Interesting for sure, Montreal had a good D tho but most of that was probably due to Thorpe and the talent on the field, Not sure what this guys credentials are but i'd imagine, he's just another lamb for Chamblin to Sacrifice when things start to go south.

January 12, 201510 yr comment_103040 So much punnies! But crazy they signed an essentially rookie CFL defensive coach.. Very interesting times in priderville..,
January 12, 201510 yr comment_103047 Chamblin just wants a puppet that will do his bidding on D, and free up time for him to focus on the HC end of it. I'm sure he'll be the brains behind the Rider D in 2015...
January 12, 201510 yr comment_103048 "Great hire, He's awesome. I've heard so many good things. Way to go Taman."
January 12, 201510 yr comment_103050 "Great hire, He's awesome. I've heard so many good things. Way to go Taman." Said all riderfans?
January 13, 201510 yr comment_103051 No, Bomber fans should hope the Riders go 0-18 every year with two asskickings from us.
January 13, 201510 yr comment_103058 Two words...MEAT SHIELD It's cute how all the Rider fans are talking about what kind of defence Quick might run. I can tell you what kind it will be. The exact defensive playbook that Chamblin hands to him when he gets off the plane and tells him to learn. This may be the biggest sham hiring of the past several years in Riderland.
January 13, 201510 yr comment_103059 I personally think that Chamblin will run the defence but he knows he needs someone to work with all the rookie talent they will be bringing in on a full time basis. The Riders DC will be more of a coach then a coordinator.

The Riders DC will be more of a coach then a coordinator. Confirmed in part by Chamblin yesterday. He stated he will be doing the playcalling for the defence.

I hope this continues the downwards trend of the riders. I don't see how you can blame all the losses on the Defence considering the offence was horrible after durant went down. on his mom.

January 13, 201510 yr comment_103095 Hmm, I guess I was wrong about the Sask media being a bunch of brown nosers: Corey Chamblin envisions a defence that will confuse the opposition. Toward that end, he has allowed a confused situation to persist. The Saskatchewan Roughriders' head coach has appointed a defensive co-ordinator (Greg Quick) who is not yet a defensive co-ordinator in the conventional sense. A comparable scenario was in effect during the 2014 CFL season when Chamblin periodically wrested control of the defence from Richie Hall. This is progress? ... Being that Quick does not have CFL experience as a defensive co-ordinator, Chamblin plans to do a considerable portion of the play-calling early in the season. The blueprint calls for Chamblin and Quick to jointly formulate the game plan. As Quick becomes more comfortable with his new role, he will be empowered to handle more of the play-calling. So it has come to this: Instead of employing Hall, the Roughriders have hired a defensive co-ordinator who will learn on the fly. Along the way, Chamblin will be distracted by the play-calling responsibilities when, really, he should be more concerned with managing the game and the entire team. ... The problem is this: Ideally, Chamblin should pick one role or the other. But there is another problem. Chamblin painted himself into a corner by phasing out Hall without nailing down a successor who was ready to be an autonomous defensive co-ordinator. ... Chamblin was therefore left with little option but to structure the defensive coaching responsibilities in the manner that was specified on Monday. The relegation of Hall ultimately backfired. Even though Hall will almost certainly leave the Roughriders' organization, the status quo has been maintained - in that Chamblin will have an active role in the play-calling. With that being the case, why not retain Hall and his expertise? All of this was so avoidable. It was proved during the glorious season of 2013 that Chamblin and Hall can coexist even without being like-minded individuals with respect to the defensive structure and mindset. Yet, Chamblin unnecessarily blew up the situation and is now the de-facto defensive co-ordinator. This is the head coach, remember, who has repeatedly stated that he would rather not have a player performing two jobs. Talk about a Quick aboutface! http://www.leaderpost.com/sports/football/roughriders-football/Vanstone+Roughriders+coaching+options/10724291/story.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
