Riders’ offence aims to remain strong against ‘dynamic’ B.C. defence
The Roughrider offensive line has been strong in protecting the quarterback this year, but they may be in tough against B.C.
Darian Durant has been sacked just once in two games, but B.C. has managed an average of three sacks a game since the beginning of the season.
“B.C.’s got a great front,” head coach Chris Jones said after practice earlier in the week. “So we’ll have our hands full I’m sure.”
In fact, Lions defensive end AlexBazzie alone has had three of the team’s nine sacks this season, but consideration also has to be paid to arguably the best linebacking pair in the CFL: Adam Bighill and Solomon Elimimian. The duo lead the team with a combined 37 defensive tackles.
