Anyone care to explain what the benefits are to running the play Saskatchewan ran at 4 minutes in? Seems to only make sense to do that if its the end of the game. Am i wrong?
Didn’t want to punt the ball at the end of the half with enough field position to score at least a field goal and possibly a touchdown, so they conceded the 2 points. Unfortunately they still allowed the Stampeders to gain enough field position to hit a field goal anyways, so it probably ended up not being worth it.
Craig Dickenson better be fired in the next couple of days. Bad Coaching lost this game again. Challenging "Pass Interference" when no pass was even thrown was the last straw. It screams that he doesn't know what he's doing. I know it's pointless, but O'Day has to do something or else he can write his own pink slip too. Dickenson shouldn't be allowed to see the inside of our locker room again after this game.
Riders may still have a chance of making the playoffs but I can guarantee that they will not win the next game against the 14-2 Argos. Unless a miracle happens and the Argos keep their best starters out. Better luck next year Rider fans and hopefully there are some football operation changes made before then.... starting with the head coach.
This is the last straw. Dickinson has to go before the next game. Doesn’t make any difference who coaches the last game. Sorry to see someone lose their job but when you’re not doing it has to be done.
So which Dickinson are you referring to? Both teams are coached by Dickinson brothers. But in saying that Craig has got to go. It's pathetic watching the Riders lose 6 in a row. Sure funny how you don't hear about Mosaic Stadium being sold out now right ?? Nobody wants to go and watch when they are losing like they have been this year.
I'm an Australian Rider fan. I'm also a San Fran Niner fan and I went to college at the U. of Illinois. 1 of my teams is flying high and the other 2 suck. 1 of my teams has the most UNDER rated QB in his league and the other 2 have OVER rated QBs. 1 of my teams plays with CONFIDENCE, TEAM WORK, GREAT BLOCKING, EVEN GREATER RUNNING and a dizzying array of PRECISION PASSING build around a strategy that has Sun Tzu taking notice from the grave. The other 2 play as if they had their game plan written by a government committee that doesn't understand blocking assignments or what a running game is good for and that throwing with hope somehow is a sound strategy. Do any of you see a pattern in this?
Where is Harris? Is he out for good or will he be back ? Maybe we need to bring back Fajardo. He seems to be doing ok with Montreal. Of course he has an O-line to protect him unlike when he was with the Riders being sacked on almost every play. Felt sorry for him when he played with the Riders. Do you F'n job O-line so he can do his job.
