Riders Got The Wrong Guy

When the Riders are the cornerstone organization in the CFL, have the best stadium and facilities, largest fan base and you strike out on all three starting QB options (edit) and now lose Jefferson ... it becomes painfully obvious that the Riders hired the wrong guy and why O'Day he was overlooked as the GM so many times.

CFL West QBs

BC - Reilly
CGY - Mitchell
EDM - Harris
WPG - Nichols
SSK - Watford.... ???

Edit: Jefferson signed with WPG after this was originally posted.

CFL officiating and commissioner are a joke! Two serious hits on our QBs without even a flag.

Should of thrown the book at Willis for his hit on Collaros. Instead Randy Ambrosie is all chummy with him & sends a message it's ok to head hunt our QB's. Week later, Jeffcoat leads with his head and jumps into Bridge.

Is that your idea of player safety commissioner?

Where will RiderNation be watching the game from today?

If he thinks that was leading with his shoulder, hate to see what he will do when leading with his head.

Game Story: Evans dropped balls, Gainey got beat all game and bad choice to try to strip rather than tackle, & weak route running.

Breaking: Riders release WR Duron Carter. More to come...

The Saskatchewan Roughriders released running back Jerome Messam after he has been criminally charged following an incident in November, 2016.
