All the pressure is on the stamps to win so it’ll be awesome when the Riders kick their a$$es. Gonna spend a lot of time watching the Hughes/Dennis battle. Both great players…should be fun!

Simple truth is, until the riders can show the ability to win in Calgary (regular season at least) they cannot take that next step

For the Riders, Glen is a choke kind of QB. Higher the stakes, the more he is likely to fail.

In reply to RIDER FAN.

Agreed. Seems to me the Riders have the ability to crap the bed when in cowgary. However – it is a new season and the boys have showed a lot of improvement overall this year. I think Cowgary will come out firing and Messam will have something to prove. If the D stands tight and the db’s don’t show weakness ( which they have except for last game) it should be a decent entertaining game. Here’s hoping – Go Riders !!

The Riders are in for a tough night against a very good Stampeder team. But I think it will be a far closer game then most people think. If we play a clean, disciplined game and have some good pressure on Bo, I would not be surprised to come out on top. But if we shoot ourselves in the foot, or give Bo all day to throw, it’ll be a long night. I think it will be a good, entertaining game where it comes down to the wire.

Well said Rider Fan! I have attended many games in Edmonton and the overall fan experience has been great. The rivalry has been mostly friendly and a lot of commiserating with whoever loses on the bus back to the park and ride. Not so much in the way of warm fuzzies in Calgary. No reason why everyone can’t enjoy the game regardless of allegiance or outcome.

Hmm.. I don’t think all the pressure is on the Riders.. if they play a good solid game and still happen to get beat by the Stamps then the Riders can hold their heads high and move on to next week against Toronto.. I expect a good close game, that of which I don’t think many Stamps fans want! They don’t want it to be close where it comes down to the end and where there will be a lot of Rider fans in attendance to help.. I just hope for a good ol fashioned barn burner tomorrow night that all fans can enjoy! GO RIDERS!

They are going to need it. 😉
Should be the game of week.

All the pressure is on the riders this game. It’s the make or break game for the organization
