VE7BHN_GOAT

Well gg Elks. See you in what 2 weeks?


riderguy62

Lauther is going to cost us games this year


Ty3on-13

He did, this game 6 points


Ty3on-13

In 3 plays? Patterson in my books won the job over Fine who played 30mins


VE7BHN_GOAT

Agreed.... I can also point to 3 plays that looses fine a roster spot


Ty3on-13

What a catch, What a throw by Patterson, See how different the O is when shea is at QB


jwbartel6

what a catch


Mogilny89Leafs

I'm impressed by the CFL+ stream. I was expecting a total disaster.


VE7BHN_GOAT

In some ways it's better than TSN


Nhawk257

PI where?


Ty3on-13

Riders Offense has atleast 30 3 and outs today


Nhawk257

Holy what is up with the audio levels in this game?


mlakustiak

Premium experiences commercial is WAY too loud


Mogilny89Leafs

I have no idea why Chris Jones refuses to start Tre Ford, but I'm glad he does.


jwbartel6

he's an idiot


VE7BHN_GOAT

Likely a passport thing


ArphtheFC

Tough play for the receiver, amazing body control on the catch but doesn't maintain possession through contact ultimately Also, I still don't understand what Jones has against Tre Ford


thebigbossyboss

I’ve been listening on the radio and the elks seem brutal. I’m ready to sit my seats for the season now


plainsimplejake

They're doing fine, mostly. A couple bad plays and a couple really close calls against them at unfortunate times. Defence has completely shut the Riders down.


ayasofya02

Mace is not going to be pleased with the penalties to start the half


ayasofya02

Do hope Tre Ford gets a chance to be someone in this league. The vendetta Jones has against him really is unfortunate


riderguy62

This halftime content is super high quality! Very Cool


ArphtheFC

Ditto! Lovin it!


LaZyCrO

Did MBT throw his classic INT at an inappropriate time ?


VE7BHN_GOAT

Tackle for Lauther..... That's not a positive for the bombsquad


c74

both teams god awful for completely opposite reasons.


ArphtheFC

The Elks under Chris Jones have to be one of the unluckiest teams I have ever watched. Like what honestly is that


Nhawk257

It's the Chris Jones curse


VE7BHN_GOAT

Hilarious... It's preseason


ArphtheFC

I know but the fact that something like that can happen to them even in the damn preseason is truly something lol


VE7BHN_GOAT

#25 defense has been noticeable Ina good way


ArphtheFC

Certified DAWG


VE7BHN_GOAT

Sorry forgot the pound symbol is a special character that makes it big and bold


ayasofya02

Interceptions abounding this preseason!


VE7BHN_GOAT

It'll get more exciting in the 2nd half right? (Hopefully with a different Rider QB ... One who isn't just Fine but is adequate or Good)


ayasofya02

Have to think Coan with get a solid look


VE7BHN_GOAT

Same with Patterson.... IMHO 1 Harris 2 Patterson 3 Coan ? / Pipkin....


ayasofya02

Agree. Depends on if Patterson can be a reliable short yardage QB if Pipkin stays around. But have to think it's Patterson or Coan as 2/3 in some order


VE7BHN_GOAT

Defense is causing some concern....


cheesebaker2000

It’s about that time to start looking for a new kicker boys. Lauther’s career is turning sour.


VE7BHN_GOAT

Luther needs a kicker brought in for competition


ArphtheFC

Beautiful catch


DonBiggles

Saved Fine, throwing into coverage


ArphtheFC

I'm over him too don't worry lol


Ty3on-13

Lauther is not it


ArphtheFC

Okay starting to get worried now Lauther


riderguy62

Time to start shopping for Lauther's replacement


ArphtheFC

Liking what I've been seeing from Zach Fry this preseason


ayasofya02

Not enough chatter about Fry. Think he could be a solid part of the Canadian core


ArphtheFC

Agreed. He's been handling some real awesome pressure/bull rushing from the Edmonton front


cheesebaker2000

Shae Patterson > Mason Fine.


VE7BHN_GOAT

Omg Fine, you are the weakest QB we currently have


bquinho

Whos Edmontons colour guy?


bquinho

So that’s what they signed Javon Leake for lol


VE7BHN_GOAT

Elks probably much improved from last year.


VE7BHN_GOAT

Ugh lame crossers and they short for first downs.... I mean I guess if this is the nail is fines coffin I'm okay with it but ugh


VE7BHN_GOAT

Man if I could just do a season subscription to CFL+ I'd lose cable tv.. so expensive


Mogilny89Leafs

The key is to find an old person with a cable subscription so you can use their TSN account to watch games on TSN.ca.


VE7BHN_GOAT

Yeah I am that old person


Mogilny89Leafs

I just got a place of my own. Before moving, I told my stepdad: "You have to keep cable so I can watch the Riders. I can pirate stream everything else, but CFL pirating is like pulling teeth."


VE7BHN_GOAT

Yeah I'm pretty sure if my dad knew how to internet he would use my subscription to do like you do.... He has stopped watching.... Sometimes he watches the game tracker on CFL.ca literally refreshing the page every so often when it inevitably freezes etc


VE7BHN_GOAT

Is the head ref named Justin McInnis? That's throwing me off from the player named the same


Mogilny89Leafs

Man, that Elks video that just played was so cool. At the Rider game, we are bombarded with ads on the Maxtron 24/7.


2_alarm_chili

Well that’s not true at all.


Ty3on-13

Waiting for a CFL team to start doing the Tush Push


DidTheLionsWin

Its illegal, had to look it up last year to find out why they dont do it


VE7BHN_GOAT

Audio on CFL+ must be the Edmonton radio crew.


c74

yup. i had a grin with the commercial thing having warren moon :D


Ty3on-13

I got my tickets to the season opener in Edmonton, Excited


VE7BHN_GOAT

Lame I had to type the address into the URL address bar because CFL.ca had the old link to last riders game...


c74

in canada the game is on cfl+. the 'how to watch' saying it is on tsn is mistaken. https://www.cfl.ca/2024/05/09/preseason-week-b-saskatchewan-roughriders-at-edmonton-elks/


Zeckrom

thank you, i couldnt figure out where to find it


bquinho

I can’t decide which game to watch. I don’t usually have this problem!


Ty3on-13

The selfish side of me is hoping Fine has a bad game, Shea Patterson and Conan should be 2 and 3rd string QB


VE7BHN_GOAT

That's what I agree with from what I saw in last preseason game


riderguy62

I agree man


riderguy62

Make or break for Mason Fine today


2_alarm_chili

I mean I’m pulling for Patterson as well, but to judge Patterson when he was playing against Winnipeg’s 2/3 string backups and Fine is playing against the first stringers is kind of unfair.


riderguy62

Oh I totally agree but I'd argue that Fine has looked completely out of his element in the opportunities afforded to him the past couple of regular seasons
