  • I miss the short clips

    The short clips that were previously made available were a great way to get my Riders coverage. My listening schedule doesn’t allow for an entire show. So, I do zip through the whole episode to get to the goods.

  • I like the smaller pieces.

    I like the 620 rebrand of the SportsCage in an effort to establish a new foundation. However, I just don’t listen to the daily show like I used to. Too many topics that don’t keep my attention with new hosts I don’t have a connection with. Which makes these segmented pieces of the show in podcast form valuable. I can pick what I want to listen to and ignore the rest.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The SportsCage - July 28th, 2026
Q: Who is the best quarterback in the CFL right now and what's the path forward for teams facing injury issues at the position?
The hosts agree that there's no single clear answer due to injuries and varied team schemes; emphasis is placed on protecting quarterbacks through better O-line play and roster depth, plus potential roster expansion as a strategic solution.
Rider Nation Pre-Game – Week 9- Roughriders @ Elks- August 1, 2026
Q: Lastly, I want to talk about special teams in the return game and the two big returns that were negated by penalties. What did you see and what will you adjust?
We saw opportunities and penalties; the team needs to play fast and physical with proper technique, and tighten up special teams execution to avoid costly penalties.
Rider Nation Pre-Game – Week 9- Roughriders @ Elks- August 1, 2026
Q: Coach, last week, your quarterback Trevor Harris said that it was harder to park a last-play loss than other ones. Agree?
It's tough, especially in back-to-back games; you review the film, make corrections, and execute in practice, acknowledging the setback but pressing forward.
Rider Nation Pre-Game – Week 9- Roughriders @ Elks- August 1, 2026
Q: I know that the mantra is always to go one and O. Do you ever, though, allow the magnitude of a game where the season series and divisional standings can creep into the equation?
No, you cannot let the magnitude affect preparation; there is always a game to play this week and focus must stay on executing this week's plan.
The SportsCage - July 27th, 2026
Q: What stood out most from the Riders-Elks game?
JC Abbott pointed to Edmonton's game plan and Cody Fajardo's big yardage, noting that the Riders left opportunities on the field due to execution and defense, and that Edmonton's plan to attack through the air surprised many.
