Saskatchewan Roughriders

Different season, same situation for Tre Ford. The Canadian quarterback will make his first start of 2024 on Saturday night when Edmonton (0-7) visits the Saskatchewan Roughriders (5-2). Ford, of Niagara Falls, Ont., started his first game last season after the Elks had dropped eight straight and ended up leading the franchise to all four of its […]

The Saskatchewan Roughriders fell to 5-2 on the Canadian Football League season with a 20-16 setback in Montreal last Thursday night. With the victory the defending Grey Cup Champion Alouettes improved to a league best 6-1 to start the season. The main point of discussion in Riderville since Thursday night is the second half where […]

The Saskatchewan Roughriders came into their first-place showdown against the Montreal Alouettes on a short week, compounded by injuries and more new faces in the lineup.   Despite these challenges, the first half of the game at Percival Molson Stadium couldn’t have gone better for the Riders.  Led by quarterback Shea Patterson, the offense had […]

After holding the Montreal Alouettes to just three points in the first half, the Saskatchewan Roughriders defense could not find a way to stop Davis Alexander. The unheralded quarterback entered the game in the third quarter in relief of Caleb Evanns. The third-year pivot out of Portland State finished 15-of-18 passing for 178 yards and […]

Well folks, as we referenced in last weeks, ‘Coaching Matters’ primer, we’re now officially at the 1/3 marker of the year so I thought we’d do a quick external evaluation of the Saskatchewan Roughriders using a good ole SWOT Analysis. Coincidentally, the same methodology I use at the CDN Red Cross when it comes to evaluating programs […]

Just having the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in town for a game is more than enough hype and excitement, but the Saskatchewan Roughriders are taking things up to another level. When the Riders pour onto the field at Mosaic Stadium, the team will be wearing the new “Obsidian Green” jerseys the team revealed a few weeks […]

The Saskatchewan Roughriders returned to the practice field on Tuesday morning at Mosaic Stadium. To no one’s surprise Right Tackle Jermarcus Hardrick was not on the field with the team. Hardrick left Saturday’s game in B.C. on a cart in the second half after being shaken up. Giving Rider Nation a glimmer of hope was […]

Before we dive into the game credit has to be given where it’s due AND what an atmosphere in and around B.C. Place Stadium on Saturday afternoon. I will be the first to admit that its’ been a long time since I took in a CFL game on the west-coast let alone a Riders/Lions clash. […]

I’ve been struggling all week with this, folks. I’m hoping that one of you can clarify something for me. As a former CFL pro turned Colour Commentator/Analyst, I’m getting the uncomfortable feeling that I’m the only one outside the locker room who feels good about the chances of the Riders going 1-0 this week in British […]

The Saskatchewan Roughriders extended their CFL winning streak to four games Friday with a 30-23 victory over the Toronto Argonauts. Saskatchewan improved to 4-0 while the Argonauts dropped to 2-2. Marcus Sayles scored the game-winning touchdown on a 54-yard interception return with 6:25 left in the fourth quarter. A pass from Argos quarterback Cameron Dukes […]
