    DD has only had 2 serious injuries, unfortunately back to back. In the seven seasons prior to that as a starter he had only missed 3 games. Your DD is a bandaid theory doesn't hold water. Collaros is in his 3rd year as a starter and has suffered a torn ACL. Not here trying to put down Zack, he is a great player but he hasn't been able to play more than 13 games in a row so far so I guess we'll see how many he plays this time.

    Elbow you forgetting something?

    LG is the only spot Travis Bond has played all season, save for one time he filled in during an injury situation........

    I respectfully disagree. He filled in when Neufeld we injured. Hardrick took Neufeld spot and Bond filled Hardrick rg spot. He played three games at rg until the move to LG vs Montreal.

    Why would that change?... the only time he has ever flipped out to RT was the game Hardrick got hurt....

    I don't know for sure but the left side is the blind side. Maybe Bond was there to strengthen blitz pickup or offset/match up better with the Montreal D.  In the NFL your best interior guy plays LG. We might see the same lineup from here on out it might be a one and done. Something to look for this weekend.

  4. Our offense had the ball 4 times in the second half before Lofler's pick with just over 1 minute left.

    2 first down and then a Harris fumble ended drive one 

    A 2 and out on drive two first sack in 2 games on the oline.

    A nice long drive that was stop on a run attemp on 2nd and 2 ended with a field goal 

    94 yard td drive 

    I may have missed one drive but I came away with a solid impression of Nichols and the way he handled a blitzing defence that really took away the deep throw opportunities. I think if push came to shove this offense can win a game  or three on their own merits.

     

     

     

  5. I re-watched  the game yesterday and noticed a couple things.

    Bond played left guard beside Stanley all game. 

    If football was like hockey Westerman would have had 2 assists before the first half of the first quarter.

    The hit/hurry on Glen that caused the Cole int and he forced Glenn into the arms of Sholagun for the sack.

    He also rushed from the nose tackle spot on 1st and 2nd and long situations.

    I'll add some more later.

    We should keep willy and deal with his salary in the offseason.   I'm hoping we get to see him again soon, preferably whe we are up 30 points at the half and we are protecting nichols

     

    Fact of the matter is willy has not had a good oline from day one. In each of his first two years  he managed  early season victories while amassing massive damage along the way. He was broke down and had not recovered in the games he played this year. That was clear to the fans and especially  his teammates.  

    He gave this team everything he had in year one and two. To start the year he was just a shell of what he was. He needs more time to regain that old form. He needs more time to work through his injury and trust his leg can once again take a hard shot. This is a mental hurdle he can come back from. Plenty of qbs have. Nichols has had the same battle in his career. We can afford Willy the rest of the season to sit and recover. We can revisit his contract in the offseason. We can allow him to battle for the starting position in training camp next year.

    I hope this is how everything unfolds. This is how a classy organization would handle Willy.

    We had to move the taxi squad to Moose Jaw to escape the watch full eyes of Bo

    More like every ex teammate that rolled  through the Rider locker room  reporting about the colossal clusterfuck  Jones and company was running. Something that obtuse gets talked about.
