22-7 Saskatchewan end of the first half. Riders' scored a TD when Crandell passed the ball to Dominguez but immediately dropped the ball and Wes Cates recovered the ball for a TD. I thought the ball would have been ruled incomplete because Dominguez did not even have a step when he dropped the ball. Clearly, he doesn't have the control of the ball. Oh well, another break for Saskatchewan. Riders are very lucky so far and I hope their luck ran out in the second half.

This game is pretty frustrating so far because of so many mistakes the Stamps are making. Most of the Riders' points are after the penalties. The first penalty on Armour, the Stamps could have have the ball but instead trhe officials gave it to Riders because of the penalty. Riders ended up scoring 3 points after. The next scoring points, there was another boneheaded penalty before Riders scored a TD. Another frustrating part are the dropsies by usually sure handed receivers in Ralph(2x), Copeland(2x) and Thelwell(2x). Burris on the other hand are not perfect as well as he threw one deep ball against two defenders which ended up getting intercepted. I am not blaming anyone including Burris but all these penalties and mistakes better not show up in the second half or else we will not win this game.

Here's what I am hoping in the second half, OLine gives Burris more time and room. Ditto for Joffrey Reynolds. Receivers catch the ball and not drop it. Burris bring back his composure because I can see his frustrations early this game. I guess you cannot blame him as he's been hurried and hit a lot of times so far.
On Defense, someone should stop Wes Cates. Rush Crandell more.
Overall, no more dumb penalties and mistakes!!!
