We can get killed today and then come back and go on another 4 game run like nothing happened. It's like the Bermuda Triangle.... Or games at McMahon.... They don't really mean anything in the big picture... The tandem that concerns me is Durant to Bagg. We shut that down, goodnight Irene.

johnzo Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 When D. Adams and Smith come back, we've got a huge logjam at import receiver: McDuffie, Smith, Dressler, Adams, Mayo, Sheppard, Denmark. Who are your four? We're going to have to sit a couple quality players, which is a weird position for the BB to be in. Liked what I saw of Sheppard tonight, a couple clutch catches, using that big body to advantage. The Classic, Noeller and Mr Dee 3
JuranBoldenRules Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 I think it's hard to keep more than one of Smith and McDuffie on. McDuffie has unique skills in terms of speed but isn't the most polished. Sheppard can play a role that Lapo loves. Might be moot with Adams, but with Smith ready I think our best lineup is Denmark, Dressler, Smith and Sheppard. Might try to DI McDuffie to rotate in but that means taking someone off the DL or special teams.
Goalie Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 I think Adams won't be back for a very long time. I think we are looking at next season for him... and I believe he's a FA so no guarantee that he will be back
johnzo Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 Shame about Adams if he's out for the season. He really seemed to be coming into his own when he went down.
The Unknown Poster Posted September 5, 2016 Report Posted September 5, 2016 So I take it Rider fans are going nuts about this game?
Bubba Zanetti Posted September 5, 2016 Report Posted September 5, 2016 I dont know why i sometimes go over to riderfans after a game.....yes i do, to watch them meltdown and cannibalize each-other. But today is a whole different animal. Apparently they outplayed us all game, the refs cost them the game, their kicker cost them the game, etc, etc. One guy said the game wouldnt have even been close if their kicker made all of his kicks???? He left 7 points on the field. Unreal. Also, anyone who isnt a lemming and displays an alternate view of the game is a troll and told to f*** off. That place is like a whole other world full of likeminded, koolaid drinking, nutjob, conspiracy theorists that refuse to see the world in anything but green-colored glasses. Its quite amazing.......and frightening. After a few minutes there you begin to understand how the nazi movement swept over Germany. The Unknown Poster and The Classic 2

I wouldn't expect any Bomber fans to have any problem with either pass interference call involving Dressler but wouldn't be a big stretch to imagine that some Rider fans might have a problem with it. That late call was a big one.

Numerous PI calls that weren't made, horrendous holding penalties that were never called, etc. Evened out as far I'm concerned. The better team won.

Every team deals with it. Maybe Durant's brutal toss that was intercepted on our 2 decided the game, maybe he would have thrown another if he had gotten the ball back, maybe your kicker cost you the game, etc, etc. If ifs and buts were candies and nuts....1 penalty in the grand scheme of things isnt the sole reason for a loss is my point.

Agree with a lot that you have said. You know as well as I do that as the clock ticks down that a late call can decide a game. That late PI call on Dressler that took the ball away from the Riders was a back breaker? Yes or NO?

Fatty Liver Posted September 5, 2016 Report Posted September 5, 2016 11 minutes ago, Ripper said: So that is a Yes. Ok then, as you were. Even if that call is reversed, the game is tied and likely headed for over-time. I think the Bombers odds of winning with Medlock vs. Crapinga are better than 50/50.

You'd think they'd be used to losing by now and more resigned to the fact their team sucks., rather then looking for excuses. If the PI call bothers them so much, blame their coach for wasting his challenges.

Yeah, no sympathy at all for the Riders. How about the way Jones lost that game with 2 stupid challenges & 2 dumb 3rd down gambles in Rider territory. Those were backbreakers & not the PI call. Those 4 plays cost the Riders the game. Jones is incredibly stupid. #textbook The Unknown Poster, Mr Dee, BigBlueFanatic and 1 other 4

But then again, they could have *not* thrown an Interception on the one yard line. Or the kicker could have hit a couple. Plays and calls happen. Penalties like that can go either way. If it happens in the first, probably no one is talking about it. Mr Dee 1
