Super Duper Negatron Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 Based on their offensive output so far, this might be a blessing in disguise for the Riders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with 5 games in he has been paid 320k. If he is out the rest of the season they save 180k. A portion of that will be used to pay the new 3rd Qb on the active roster.

Not only is it a broken tibia, that was also a spiral injury. He won’t play again this season. I still think his career might be over.

Yeah sadly...I think u right And when surgery is required with this type of injury..the recovery and return to play is significantly longer...and no guarantee u actually get back to where u were pre injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IC Khari Posted July 17, 2023 Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) Lawler will open up the run game for Zach and the RB's, and the passing game for the rest of the receiving core. It's too bad that legal stuff hadn't have been cleared up before this season started. I honestly believe our team would have had a stronger, more consistent offence, which could have helped the defence to stay off the field more. Who knows, maybe we don't lose one or two of the games we have? Edited July 17, 2023 by IC Khari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IC Khari Posted July 17, 2023 Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 (edited) Another thing to consider in this first 6 games. Why do teams like the Argos get TWO byes and we get none. The team is tired and it showed on Saturday IMO ... 😡 Edited July 17, 2023 by IC Khari wbbfan, rebusrankin and Wideleft 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we would pack it in for the last two if we did have a win streak. If we righted the ship I could see 14-4, though one of those games is vs edm so I guess 15 wins is possible lol. 56 minutes ago, IC Khari said: Another thing to consider in this first 6 games.

Every team should have a buy in each third of the season or with in 6 weeks have a 9/10 day gap week. Large gaps between byes combined with short turn around games 4-5 days between and 3/10ish is a real problem with an 18 game schedule.

Booch Posted July 17, 2023 Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 yeah...there is no logical reason some team have had 2 buys before another team has had even 1 Piggy 1, IC Khari and Stickem 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While other teams are trudging through the rest of the season without a decent break, it will be our turn to start drinking the sweet water (Ritchie).
