Pretty weak, boys!

Idle thoughts on the Saskatchewan Roughriders' 23-7 loss in Calgary tonight:

1) The offensive line isn't getting the job done. Granted, the Riders throw the ball further down the field this year, requiring longer blocking assignments, but Kerry Joseph is going to get killed!
2) Speaking of which - Joseph was clearly playing hurt, and was ineffective throwing the ball. Any reason Marcus Crandell didn't see the field?
3) The Riders defense recovered from a bad start to hold the team in the game, but the offense was......offensive.
4) Calgary's offensive line gave Henry Burris time to find his receivers tonight - what a novel concept!
5) Luca Congi's punting was putrid until the late stages of the game.
6) Joffrey Reynolds is a horse, but it appears Kenton Keith can still run the ball as well.
7) Dominique Dorsey makes me miss the kick-returning abilities of Corey Holmes - a lot.
8) Steve Armitage is a gawdawful play-by-play man. I gagged when he gave former Rider Scott Gordon credit for a Roughrider tackle in the first half.

So, the win one/lose one pattern continues for the Grim Green Machine. And the band played on...
