almo89 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I just finished watching the game on the PVR. Andrew Harris is such a stud. With the additional weight he gained in the off season, tacklers are just bouncing off him and his speed isn't compromised. It's really nice to see how he has progressed as a tailback in this league. With Kelly Bates mentoring him, Harris has shown so much patience before attacking the hole. So many guys just run into the hole with full speed, but end up hitting their own O-lineman. All 3 of Harris' TD's were him doing a bit of a stutter step to wait for the blocking to develop. Thumbs up all the way. He sort of reminds me of Pinball Clemons. I have to say that I'm quite impressed with Arceneaux. He had his issues with drops during his first stint with the Lions and I didn't think that the Lions should have signed him back for big dollars. He has proven me wrong so far. It looks like in the couple of years he was in the NFL, he has fixed his dropsies and is showing some serious speed on the deep routes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I'm a little ambivalent about last night's game... On one hand, I love seeing the Eskies lose and will continue to do so as long as they leave up those 30 yr old "City of Champions" highway signs. However, I'd like to see Reilly succeed and last night he should have. (even taking into account Kavis Reed's brutal mismanagement of the QB situation) The penultimte play absolutely should have been reviewed, giving the Esks time to come up with a better play than the peewee fire drill that we saw to end the game. It was also the first loss of the season by a western team to an eastern squad. Quite frankly, I was enjoying the complete domination by the west.

ilduce39 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) I don't know how Riders are winning but they won't win the Grey Cup. Saskatchewan is the perfect villain for the CFL - obnoxious fanbase, decent but over-hyped team, and they always satisfyingly choke in the playoffs. wait.... that sounds dangerously like the Canucks, except the Riders don't dive, bite or pull hair... they just can't count.

c00kies Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 WPG is awful and will be for a very long time. Joe Mack needs to go,the Bombers need a QB, and the secondary needs another shakeup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almo89 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I remember when the Riders were the lovable losers. They were so bad you felt bad for them. I saw their true colors when they had a bit of success. Their fans are so cocky, but that's what makes it fun. Rider fans is what Canadian Football League is all about. I wish every fan base was like that especially here in BC and Toronto. Since 2004 Western Final, the Riders have been my most hated team and I love it.

Bruce Boudreau Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 What's wrong with the special teams? Neither guy Brown or Williams are creating on their own on returns and instead just following up the blockers backs. They need to have vision and set up their own lanes and lead where they want the blockers to go not the other way around. I still think they need to get Williams back in there and tell him to forget about blocking and just hit the return with full speed and get to the outside and let his blockers clear the way to cut back if necessary. Williams can hit the home run but right now he is over thinking it. Brown can hit some solid doubles but he is not a home run threat. Either way the special teams needs to get it figured out because as of now they are dead last in the league in both kickoff and punt return yards. It's actually amazing how good the offence has operated with poor starting field position to work with most of the time. Lulay has done a good job putting long drives together. Other than that the d seems to coming together. Secondary is holding up and d-line is starting to get pressure just need to finish to get sacks. Also safety has been good so far by Larose to not get burned deep unlike Muamba last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
