Time to get this monkey off our back

[Edmonton Fan]

I do not want to be in a 3 way tie for second with the lucky Stamps, and majorly overachieiving Riders...

Absolutely- gut check time for the Esks.

No time left for excuses. No junk about rookie kickers, old kickers, rookie coaches, wimpy running backs, gimpy receivers, burned out radio announcers or drunken fans.

Simply play at the top of the game for 60 minutes with a level of discipline that befits professional football players. Play and play well and don't make a single mental mistake.

most times a three way is a good thing... NOT in this case....

You forgot blind refs.

Hmmm, looks like they have added both Marcuss Wynn and Quincy Stewart to th roster for this game. Don't know if I like that, that leaves only Loftus as a back up in the DB department. I suppose they think that Marsh can move back if they have an injury but I'd rather have an extra DB than Backer.

I don't know why we haven't used Loftus more than we have.

Espeacialy when you consider who we got rid of for him....

Wiltshire has been playing well most of the time aside from a stinker in Sask, IMO.

Majorly overacheiving Riders ?!? Naw they are just finally getting healthy and hitting there stride... Congrads to the Esks for the Win, but your analysts of the Riders is way off base buddy!!

Re: Time to get this monkey off our back

The Esks were generous last game.. that blocked FG was a planned play so the Rider fans wouldn't go home dissapointed..

I know the Riders are good.. and I'm cheering for them to knock off BC next week.. so the Esks still have an outside.. 1 in a million shot at first place.

We just didn't want them to ALL move to Alberta. Gotta give them something to be proud of.

1st place is a stretch. I want BC to beat Sask the next 2 times. Thoes are going to be great games though.
