If the Stamps play a clean game I don't see how the Riders can beat them. Bombers have more big play potential with their offense and they always have trick plays that seem to work.

I agree with EE, I'd rather face the Riders even though the recent play-off history between these two teams swings towards Saskatchewan. Everybody talks about the Riders defense, but the Bombers have a strong defense as well and they have some ball hawks in their secondary. The x-factor might be Chris Strelever, O'Shea doesn't hesitate to put in him to switch things up and Strelever doesn't hesitate to tuck the ball and run with it and he's pretty damn good at it.
As far as turnovers are concerned, you know that Terry Williams is going to bobble at least one punt during the game. Here's hoping he can fall on it before the opposition does.
