i noticed there were not many fans there today, my assumption is they would blame it on the fact that the game was supposed to be last night and all the dignified rider fans had other events lined up today
Oh I wouldn't hold todays turnout against them. But even if you watch a regular Riders game there's empty sections of seats everywhere.
This ain't the old days where CFL was popular with passionate young-ish fans. Even Mosaic is half empty most games now and most fans are 40-60 years old.
how'd you know?
...at least I'm on the low end of your scale. Got another ~20 years of CFL Fandom in me, I guess.

They have no other plans. Ever.

One of the things they showed and I’ve mentioned it from the get go is we don’t blitz much at all. When you can get consistent pressure from 4 man pressure you have pretty much won the game on the defensive side.
We are not doing anything special at all. It’s good base defence with excellent tackling and coverage. And yes you can see coaching makes a difference. Some of these guys are same players from last year.

Before I watched the Stamps vs Riders game yesterday, I looked at Riders record, 4-0 to start the season? I think to myself, holy cow, since when did Riders gotten this good? Then proceed to watch the game, huh? They are still the same nothing burger.
how'd you know?
