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? I saw a defender make contact with a receiver 5 yards off the line of scrimmage an force him off his route for nearly 10 yards before turning around and making a play on the ball.

Blueandgold Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 That last challenge by Jones was embarrassing. Rider fans will use the refs as a crutch to protect lord Jonsie, but his coaching has been god awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the PI call bothers them so much, blame their coach for wasting his challenges. You are right. No sense in expecting the refs to make the correct call on the field, we should have had a challenge ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) Iffy call? Maybe but it wasn't exactly the same as what didn't get called on the bombers earlier. There was a difference. Adams and receiver were hand fighting.... both were. Looked to Me like the one on dressler was more illegal contact but cuz ball thrown his way and catchable it was PI. Can complain about reffing... I could go on and on about all the illegal holds the riders oline gets away with or guys being 5 yards offside on some plays or illegal blocks on the punt return td but bottom line is.... those calls go both ways. Iffy calls all night long.... Blaming refs is easy but when you turn the ball over multiple times.... and lose your challenge on stupidly obvious plays... well you have nobody to blame but yourself. Imo this was not one of the bombers better games in recent memory... the game was way closer than it should have been... bottom line .. good teams find ways to win... bad teams look for excuses when they lose You know what the difference between the bombers and riders are? When the bombers lose... O'shea takes the bullet for his team... doesn't look for excuses... Jones? Well... he either throws his players or refs or basically anybody but himself under the bus Edited September 5, 2016 by Goalie MyDogHasScheifeles, blitzmore, Rod Black and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Poor Rider fans. I mean its a clear conspiracy that Chris Jones chose to take two foolish third down gambles. It was clearly the Commish who made Jones takes his previous two challenges. It must be Glen Johnson's fault that Crapigna missed two FGs. Its a conspiracy that allowed McDuffie to be so open on his TD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Dee Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Jones, who let assistant Coaches talk him into throwing that first challenge flag. (He was actually putting the flag away) Jones, who reacted to the fans and their calls on the second challenge, rather than believe his eyes, when CLEARLY Roosevelt trapped the end zone catch. Jones, who gambled on third down instead of trying a FG? Jones, who showed us possibly the worst fake punt in CFL history. Suurrre the refs cost you the game. Let's all interlock our arms and chant the conspiracy song. Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) That Bagg call on 3rd down was such a brutal call (and that was a quick pass if I remember correctly, so Bagg must have been the first read on that play.) Robb Bagg's a fine football player but expecting him to yac his way to a first down against a secondary that's playing short-yardage tight doesn't seem like a high-percentage play. (we hung Kohlert out to dry a couple weeks ago in a similar fashion, tossed him a short pass behind the line of scrimmage on a second-and-long and he just got buried.)

Just not going to put up with flat out made up BS that people post just to pile on. I'm surprised how chirpy some of you guys are. Squeaked out a win against the worst team in the league aided by some calls by the refs. Good job. Nichols again couldn't score when it mattered, just lucky things worked out the way they did. A win is a win, so full credit for winning today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didnt help your cause but if the Rider D tightened up after that and didnt allow anymore yards it would have been a 53 yarder for Medlock as opposed to a 43 yarder which is no gimmie. Again, one penalty does not a game make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that one play doesn't make a game however, but there are definitely certain plays that hurt bad, that was one of them. The McDuffie td was the other.
