Plus Augustine has 17 touches in his 17 career games. 17 touches to 0 is not exactly a huge discrepancy its less then one game for a starting rb in this system. Ill bet santiago had more then 17 touches in TC with the vikings though. Where as Augustine was an UDFA in the cfl. Rb is among the most if not the most pro ready positions. The only advantage Augustine has is his passport. Hes shown enough to get a share of the reps no doubt. And the ability to rotate a NI rb on and send i another imp is great. But the run game is far too important, especially right now, to plunk it square on the shoulders of augustine. We could probably air lift in half a dozen rookies at a moments notice that would all start and keep the run game going if we needed. Santiago has a lot of versatility and is really really dangerous. We kept him around because hes a home run hitter. If he wasnt gonna be the guy to come in there would be no reason to have him around all this time. Wonder what flanders is up to right now actually.

You would still have to maintain 8 NIs if he went down. The step down from an IMP wr to petermann is huge. We dont need an extra DI soo bad. You start 7, with the imp rb and rotate through freely.

Youre jumping to negative conclusions because of a bias you have for him. He is far better then any one thought he would be coming out, and deserves to be a game day player in this league. He may yet be a starter or better. But its a high risk low reward situation with him right now for us. I do not want to give him for several reasons. The biggest reason is we have no other canadian RB to back him up. If he got hurt ejected etc we would be 100% screwed. While hes shown some good signs in garbage time and pre season, demski has showed far more in far more meaning full minutes, Santiago looked better against the same level of action, and starting him allows us to rotate a lot of guys through for various looks. So no, I dont want to start him because he isnt in the top 3 or 4 rbs on the roster and it would heavily gimp our ratio. Start Santiago, rotate Grant, demski, and whitehead through running plays and 2 back sets. Pick the best 2 and split reps with them with a 3rd rotating through.

The problem is the contamination rate. Unless they are constantly testing every batch its still a big risk. I understand there is a US based manufacturing company that guarantees clean supplements, though im sure its rather expensive.

No pro athlete would take what Harris has popped for as any PED. Its like trying to do your taxes on a TRS-80 vs a new pc. I believe what thigpen took was a no name turinabol. The same thing jone jones popped for in the ufc. In a small dose it would help with his weight cut.

What happens frequently is the manufacturing companies make legal supplements, and also various PEDs. They use the same machinery and the machines dont get cleaned and switched over well in the switch from one to another. Frequently changes are made and substitutes are used. From supply limitations to cost changes. Because they arent tested or held to any standard, they dont need to waste bottles and boxes and order new stuff with updated labels. This happens A LOT. On the more nefarious side, some companies will copy other more successful companies ingredient lists with out ever using that combination or even any thing close to it. Supplements are an extremely shady industry. The companies all chase the dollar and have them manufactured in the lowest cost areas possible. With that you get these types of issues. The amount of tainted positive tests proven in just MMA in the last 2 years is insane.

Id like to see him get a couple reps but i really hope he doesnt start. I want to see santiago start.

100% No way did harris take a PED knowingly. Those guys would do any thing for an edge if they thought they could get away with it. This is heart breaking. I wish he was fighting it and would prove it wrong. In the mean time, im guessing rose will start at rb.

It'll be sealed one way or another in the next few weeks. If we sweep the riders suddenly a team like ott is alive and well.

Yeah with the ending they gotta be questioning that now

Yep dumb one

Mbt looking really good throwing through tight windows and moving the pocket.

He heavily implied it though. It's a big improvement from him but still scummy. Implying that the calls had a negative impact on edm is inane. We easily had the worst of the bad reffing. Plus had 8 starters out.

If we focus on the zone read option more we won't need much more then screen and short dumps. When we used it last night it tore edm to pieces.

I'd love it if we swung a deal and got BB back as our back up qb

The entire offense seemed to struggle with the wet ball early. But we clearly saw a training wheels playbook too. No jet sweep, minimal demski stuff etc. Jbr has made some excellent points about his 3/4 arm slot and the way he Tuck's the ball as soon as he moves the pocket and doesn't keep the ball in a live position to throw when behind the line. Stuff he can learn and over come with technique and practise. He doesn't need to switch to an over head release point but he has to adjust his ball placement and targeting more.

Or trying to justify why a Down field helmet to helmet hit is legal

I had him with two deflections too.

The Rios pick 6 is an honorable mention

1 WJ. Beast mode tnite. Sacks kds pressure and a huge tip on the on side kick. 2 the rest of the DL. Tons of pressure pass kds great play. 3 harris and streveler running. Tons of big first down runs from both. Hard night of running. Hh Medlock with the 52 yarder at the half just getting over. And the 50 to seal it.

So if he succeeds its a decision on if it was him or plop, but if struggles it was plop all along...

By that logic if streveler has a good game then it was all nichols? 🤣 QFT

Idk this is a meteorite kinda year for qbs. 😆

Even with the starters nfl pre season is the worst. with out it, id rather watch Arena football.

Some one is gonna get played off the roster one way or another. Though its possible that as some one gets healthy some one else gets hurt. Or is atleast hid on the IR. Im pretty hyped mcCallister is back, but he has to be the first guy out the door in all likelihood.
