Watching the CIS Football between the Dinos and St. Mary makes me think the score on the Western Finals between the Riders and the Stamps will be low. The weather tomorrow during the game will probably be the same as today and I am not sure we will see an over 300+ yards passing game. I think that would be favourable for the Stamps as usually the Riders receivers decides to play better against the Stamps all the time. I mean, Durant and some of their receivers looks like an average players against other teams but when they play against the Stamps they think they are superman. Hopefully after the Stamps beating them last game and Browner shutting down Fantuz all game they go back to earth.

OFFENSE:

All-Star Quarterback and Western Most Outstanding Player Henry Burris will have to use his legs more than before in this game. We all know Burris can throw the ball no matter what weather we have but it will be awesome if he uses his legs this time. Our two-headed monster Running Backs Joffrey Reynolds and Jon Cornish will be count on a lot. I like their chances in running through the Riders run defense. I don't feel the Riders' run defense is as good as what TSN and the media mentions. Their what so-called Minieter of Defense Barrin Simpson is probably one of the most overrated LB in the league. If our OLine takes care of the Riders DLine, I can't see Simpson stopping Reynolds or Cornish.

DEFENSE:

Our DLIne will have to contain Darian Durant more and chase him all day. JUwan Simpson and Malik Jackson will need to stop Wes Cates. With the weather being a factor in this game, I can't see Durant throwing those long balls a lot during the game. DB Brandon Browner and Dwight Anderson needs to shut down Fantuz, Dressler and even Getzlaf all game. Stay away from unnecessary penalties.

SPECIAL TEAM:

This is where the Stamps needs to step up. Our Special Team has been abysmal all season and something has to change. Our coverage has been non-existent at times and whoever play between Murphy or Talley needs to give our offense a better field position. Having great field positions will be a key on this game.

************************************************** ******
Key to this game for the Stamps. Pressure Durant all game and our DB needs to a better job not giving Durant a look on open receiver. Browner did a good job on Fantuz last time and I am sure Riders will try to have an answer to it. I still think Chris Jones shouldn't change a bit from last game. Everyone knows that the referees will be watching these guys really close for Pass Interference. I just hope the refs will let them play and not to call every single tug and push.
DLine and LB needs to stop Wes Cates and other Riders RB and Durant early on the scrimmage. The more DLine pressures Durant the better chances the Stamps can shut them down.

Last time I went to a very chilly playoff game at McMahon was against the Riders as well a long time ago. Dress warm and hopefully the Stamps fans will not let the Riders fans take over our turf.

GO STAMPS GO!!!
