Hmmm… KM is on the sidelines and cflisthebest is posting in a fan forum… doesn’t take much to figure out why, does it, genius… :roll:
jee, what a retarded argument.
the bottom line is that this team is not as good as we were in 2007.
Ya think?.. and as for being a retarded argument… the whole thread is that way… but then again, the author is clearing not using his so called superior football brain to start topics like this to begin with…
Even with cflisthebest’s stellar resume of football feats, I’m giving the nod to Miller on this one… :roll:
Right about what? You change your mind every week.
I will be sticking with my thought that the Riders are not that good of a team. I won't be changing my mind.
Care to say what constitutes "not that good"?
9-9?
10-8?
11-7?
Does it depend on how the rest of the league does? (i.e. if most the teams are grouped around 8 to 10 wins does that mean they are all good but equal? Or poor but equal?
Give a specific definition of "not that good" or it doesn't mean anything.
Ever think that maybe the Riders are not worse than last year and maybe the rest of the league is just better than last year???? Maybe i should get my grandma in here to fight with this guy cause she coached highschool football too!!!!! I coach pee wee hockey maybe i should get on the NHL forum to explain why the oilers havnt won the cup in so many years!!!!!! I also play beer league softball maybe i can coach the jays to world series!!!!! Throwing a ball when you were a kid dosnt make what you say valid buddy!!!!!!
The old saying is, if you’re not getting better, you’re getting worse. I think that may well be the deal in the West this year. the most improved teams are Edmonton and Hamilton. I think the Riders, Stamps and BC at best stayed even–so worse.
Parity keeps the Riders in the mix this season. No team looks invincible right now, and apart from the Argos, any team can beat any team on a given night. So there is no reason to push the panic button. That being said, LaPolice is an average O.C. at best, and the novelty of Etcheverry's fronts seems to have worn off (D-line injuries/retirement haven't helped either), which exposes the secondary. The Riders have talent, but I question the schemes and the ability to make effective adjustments.
The Riders will take Hamilton this weekend in a close game. The multiple looks will give the QB difficulty and Durant is going to have a solid game. Just my thoughts. Oh, and Toronto will take BC while Winnipeg beats Montreal. No I have not been drinking. 
I totally think That we should put someone new in - Bell or the new kid we got (harrell) his collage stats are frickn crazy . His best year doubles the numbers of durrants best year5700 yrds passing and 43 tds WOW. I know everyone thinks that he's new and he hasnt had a real snap yet. But really what are we gonna do? leave durrant in !!! we will finish way out of the playoffs if that happens. Yeah durrant had the lucky streak of 6 wins in a row last year, but you have to remember durrant was nothing before he got his first chance! he was 3rd string and got bumped up because jyles had nothing!. Durrant just came in at the right time and needed to perform and thats what he did do and he did a good job of it while it lasted but that was until he got hurt. After that he never was the same and thats when all the ints started to happen. Sure durrant does do some good things with the ball but he also screws up way more than he does good. I havn't seen so many 3 and outs as i have this season and its sick. Give the new guys a chance i hear this harrell kids is crazy good! who knows he could be the next flutie. :thup: something has to be done
