Noeller Posted July 31, 2019 Report Posted July 31, 2019 At first I thought maybe ZC was signing with the team that originally recruited him so he could retire there, but if there's a 2nd rounder involved, then TO is expecting him to play. That poor bastard. Legitimately concerned about his long term health... Tracker and Mark H. 2

If I was them I would protect the arms and look for a qb who can run for his life.
Zontar Posted July 31, 2019 Report Posted July 31, 2019 Riders think it's a genius move. All true if you forget the fact Riders signed the expensive concussion prone guy in the first place. wbbfan 1
JuranBoldenRules Posted July 31, 2019 Report Posted July 31, 2019 We probably could have got a 3rd rounder for Buck Pierce to take off the headset and go behind centre for the Argos. B-F-F-C, Noeller and blue_gold_84 3

They will be in a world of hurt if Fajardo goes down... their QB backups (per their Week 7 depth chart): Isaac Harker: Cracked their roster in 2019, has only played in 2 games to-date with just under 30 passing attempts. He also has 0 TDs and 3 INTs. Bryan Bennet: Former Bomber - started 18 games, mostly on STs, has a total of 8 career passing attempts to-date. He hasn't thrown any TDs or INTs to date, given his limited reps. I don't think Collaros' health would've impacted the decision - he hasn't looked the same for a number of years. The fact the 'Riders have managed a .500 record so far with such a thin QB roster is surprising.

Brandon Posted July 31, 2019 Report Posted July 31, 2019 Getting anything for Zach at this point is a good move for the Riders. If I was them I would re-sign Bridge as the 3rd stringer just in case they run into injury troubles and are making a play off run. Toronto is grasping... hope and a prayer is what they are doing.

Bomber_fanaddict Posted July 31, 2019 Report Posted July 31, 2019 I didnt think you were allowed to trade injured players. Is ZC cleared to play?

Noeller Posted July 31, 2019 Report Posted July 31, 2019 Collaros was cleared to practice this week, but Riders chose not to put him out there (which honestly is the sensible thing to do...) but you know that ZC is gonna keep trying until he's carted off for good......poor bastard.
Jpan85 Posted July 31, 2019 Report Posted July 31, 2019 I think its no problem as long if the team knows exactly whats up. Would not be surprised if ZC was looked over by Argo doctors before trade.

They've proven they are the 3rd worst team until they beat someone else. Alright, well I was going to make a post about how opponent combined record doesn't really correlate with anything you're saying... so here's what I found: Team name, record (Wins against) - W-L - Winning % (Note: Duplicate wins against the same team omitted for W/L record) MTL, 3-2 (HAM/OTT/EDM) - 11-7 - (0.611) OTT, 2-4 (CAL/SSK) - 7-5 - (0.583) HAM, 5-1 (OTT/SSK/TOR/MTL/WPG) - 13-16 - (0.448) WPG, 5-1 (BC/EDM/OTT*2/TOR) - 7-18 - (0.280) CAL, 4-2 (BC/SSK/TOR/OTT) - 6-19 (0.240) EDM, 4-2 (MTL/BC/TOR/BC) - 4-14 (0.222)SSK, 3-3 (TOR/BC*2) - 1-12 (0.077) BC, 1-6 (TOR) - 0-6 (0.000) TOR, 0-6 Indeterminate, they haven't posted a win yet. I find it interesting though that MTL and OTT have the best percentages despite being middle of the pack - Ottawa's inconsistent play really shows thanks to their win against CAL. TLDR; Juran's right. Fred C Dobbs, TBURGESS, wbbfan and 2 others 5

I guess its that same macho "I'm not coming out. I'm staying on the field" thing. Poor bastard indeed.
