Tick tock a tale for two local8/6/2023 ![]() ![]() Tevin Jones is a guy that’s been on the roster for a year and has some change now. Let’s not forget Tevin Jones and Shawn Bane Jr. He kind of came out of his route saw it was a little overthrown, sped up to it, got there and secured the catch. He made some great catches, that corner route that he dove for was amazing. He runs great routes, he’s faster than he looks, he’s smooth in and out of his routes. I thought last year he kind of got a bad rap everybody complained about, ‘why did we spend our first-round draft pick on this guy? He's not doing anything,’ but he just needed a good quarterback. “He's one of the best up-and-coming receivers in the league, I was really impressed. It wasn't as much as they got outplayed, Winnipeg just made the plays to extend the score.” The special teams definitely didn't play a clean game, Lauther missed another one and you had the return, I think a couple of times when we got down in the red zone, we had to settle for field goals and when the Bombers got in the red zone, they scored touchdowns. “Really, I think it was just a couple of little things. Now if we evaluate these final two-quarters of the game, what do you feel like was the downfall of the team? So I think it definitely took the wind out of the sails of the Riders and kind of everything just went downhill from there.” Once you thought okay, we got a chance to kind of get back on the field and stop them. But then for the whole flag, the mysterious flag to come out and then to have it all be overturned. I mean, it was really inexcusable for that many guys to miss tackles. I think because the Riders were going back and forth with the Bombers that play was just such an odd play. ![]() It just seemed to wear the Riders down.”ĭo you feel like the return from Janarion Grant was the turning point of this game? So, I think it was it was a good first half but injuries and just not being able to get off the field for defense. The way the Riders came out, had a lot of intensity, they kind of were going back and forth, you know, scoring and keeping up with the, I guess not the defending champs, but definitely, the defending league leaders as far as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers go. I think we were all feeling pretty good going into that first half. How do you feel like the Riders stood up against the bombers in the first two-quarters of this game? This game seemed to be a tale of two halves, in my opinion. The Saskatchewan Roughriders were unexpectedly upbeat following their 45-27 defeat at the hands of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on June 16.Īlthough some mistakes ultimately proved fatal and cost the green and white the game, there were a few glimmers of hope in the Rider’s performance at Mosaic Stadium according to Wes Cates. ![]()
