One thing that makes Hall's defense look so much better this season is Bighill.... the guy is a monster. I really hope they sign him long term...

Great read! This defense would rock if it required 15 yards for a first down! Still vulnerable for the short stuff....

Meh the Messam thing is dumb but not nearly as bad as what some of the other guys on the team have been accused of. I don't see it as a big loss because he's done nothing at all for them.

TJ Heath was a steal when we traded for him for a starting QB... If he is still considered at the same level as he was before then maybe it's a decent trade?

Who cares if he jumped the gun does it really make any difference ?

I thought the opposite... Five Guys was just a lot of grease, Fatburger had a lot of taste and both were greatly over priced.

My bad... I thought he was attached to JW.

Only on the bomb to Demski.... the dump offs to Harris seemed more effective...

But the potential is what you said they paid for. I countered and suggested that a 20 game play off hot streak shouldn't justify those kind of dollars when his previous 300 games he was nothing special at all.

I will say the o-line also sucks so he does have at least one "excuse". He also did play much better last year when he had some protection and Carter at receiver. That being said I would think running 3 different RB's the switching back and forth with the backups, weak receiving core... weak o-line all factor in why the team sucks. I honestly think they'd be better off chucking it deep every play and hope to get a PI or reception...

I don't know if Christopher could of been a bigger star... kind of small and his character was more aggravating then interesting IMO. Regardless I'd assume his issues are similar to others where some people can't handle fading away from the spot light?

So Petan should be getting a 2- 3 million dollar salary because of potential?

Would he want to get messed up behind all of those lines

It also shows that he has zero awareness and shouldn't scramble... he had a wide open field just one step to the left and yet he ran right by the D-lineman who wrapped him up.

I met Nikolai he was a nice dude who truly loved the wrestling business. Apparently he lived a very clean life style so that would explain why he was able to keep going at his old age. Brian Christopher is/was just a hot mess... to hang yourself because of a DUI... sad stuff

So is Collaros gone for the season because it appears based on the stats that Bridge can't throw for more then 200 yards in a game...

Based on the stats... Only 55 yards passing? That is Goltz like..

I'm not watching , is Carter on defense still?

So they pay him based on 20 games rather this whole body of work?

Rian also butchered Jurassic World....

He's not terrible on a normal night... but he definitely seemed bias throughout the game. I have no problem with them calling out the refs ... but he shouldn't be dead quiet whenever the offense does make well executed plays rather then bringing up the fact that the drive was penalty aided and focus on that all night long. He also said the game was close which clearly it was not.

I wonder if the fanboys would accept some other angle with Luke where he didn't actually die (maybe some far fetched Jedi power thing where he comes back to life) and they completely do a re-do with his character?

The O-line needs to be mentioned.... aside from the cheap late hits Nichols was not touched and had all the time in the world to throw.

For a good laugh visit the riderfans forum gameday thread.... such hilarious highlights of: O'Shea being a dirty coach because he called blitzes in the in the last 5 minutes of the game.... Laing shouldn't of got roughing the passer because the hit wasn't low (despite him grabbing the ankles) Mike being a troll despite a Rider fan posting the exact same message right above the one Mike posted.... The Blue Bombers apparently made zero big plays outside of the refs giving us all of our yards on offense... Apparently they still want Franklin.... About 99% of the posts crying about the refs....

Franklin was terrible in the 2nd half... does anyone have his stat line for the 2nd half? It has to be something like 5 for 16 with 2 ints....
