Quote from: Blue In BC on June 29, 2025, 01:05:14 PMDid Betts actually fracture his arm? I didn't watch the entire game although I did see him get injured. He was on the sideline with a big ice pack and wrapping on his left elbow. It could be serious and long term IR?

I was only half watching the game so didn't hear them talk about it after, but he did leave the field with the arm completely limp at his side.

I haven't heard any mention of it locally. OTOH, fans are going off the deep end about the play of the entire team. It's never easy when you have to play the back up QB but Masoli looks done. I don't see any advantage in keeping him any longer. Save some SMS and play Brice if necessary.

BC can't stop the run & can't score with Mazoli. One of the bottom 3 teams right now. Rourke will help the offence, but who is going to help that defence?

I would guess no. All he had was an ice pack on his elbow. No stabilizing materials.

Oullette won the game for the Riders, he's transformed his game under the guidance of Andrew Harris, but I susepct eventually he'll go down as he takes too much punishment running the ball.

Maier really does suck, he can find receivers and throw a decent ball if planted, but once forced off his mark and scrambling he loses track of everything and panics, he literally runs around like a chicken with it's head cut off. Looks like he's destined to remain a backup QB for the remainder of his life.

Maier's got a good gig in Saskatchewan, he is the backup but with Harris as #1, he ll get his handful of games as the starter and the riders offense has a very capable backup

What are the odds of Harris making it to season's end?

The guy gets hurt like EVERY year, so the Riders need a capable backup and they got one in Maier. Keep the pocket clean and he can hurt you, if he has to scramble, he makes mistakes/turns the ball over. They'll give us a go for sure this year.

Starting QB's in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Vancouver also didn't play because of injuries. Not getting injured is a factor of protection from the OL. Several teams have lost key OL players and a few are on option 3.

Zero, as he's already missed a game.

"Sack master" Betts got his first sack of the season yesterday.

Maybe not worth what he's getting.

And now he has what's suspected to be a broken wrist??? He'll be out for a bit with that
