Nice return, but are janarion's best days behind him?

The new "knees or below" rule is actually useless and stupid because it's nearly impossible to launch yourself that low with force!  So it will basically never happen!

The idea was to get DBs to adjust their behavior to avoid injury.  In reality it's not really doing anything.

I think this penalty has been called once this season?

If you want to stop the injury, the illegal hit area needs to be raised.

That hit/fall on Cody was exactly the same hit that ruined Matt Nichols arm (the Lemonation).  That could ruin Cody's throwing arm.  The saving grace here is Cody didn't have a 300 lb Lemon landing on top of him.

Let's see if Cody is out the remainder...

That Mital tackle also was a low hit, just above the knees so uncalled.  I wonder if that's the same EDM DB doing that both times.

Argh, Herslow = zero help for fantasy players & gamblers!

Nice stab, though.  Would that have been DPI?  Are you allowed to just ride piggy back on a REC for that long?

Cody wincing begins!  No pressure now Cody, you have your infamous excuse to lose in the bag!  Maybe obliques?

Slywka reminds me of Loffler.  Boom!  I see some penalties in his future.

Teams that keep their starting QB in for SY are dumb (unless it's on purpose for tempo O).  Like Ford wouldn't make a good SY guy??  Talk about triple threat.

Ya, Grant was a slight balance issue away from a huge TD return in this game.

P.S. That's the exactly same thing that happened to Vaval who was totally supposed to fall over in his big KR TD and yet he found a way to regain balance.

Arbuckle reminds me of Collaros, difference is Arbuckle is quicker, has better mobility scooting around the backfield and has a better touch on short passes.

Some TOR players don't want to be the next ones to get cut if they lose this game.  :o  :o

Dinwiddie getting closer to "consequences" mode.

TOR definitely amping up the physicality!!

Makes for at least a modicum of fun in this heretofore snoozefest.
Never go full Rider!

Haha, Gittens catches it and just goes down rather than take one of those low knee hits that are popular tonight.
Never go full Rider!

TecnoGenius

Man, this game for TOR must be their version of our game vs OTT... "must win".

If they lose yet again, and to a pitiful EDM team who has QB schizophrenia... may be Full Kavis time.
Never go full Rider!

Cody always did love those post crosser TDs.  Too bad it didn't hit the post this time!  :D  :D

The post is 76% air dontchaknow.

Arbuckle is horrible under pressure.  Too bad we couldn't get any in the GC.  He's so happy feet and inaccurate on the move.  Gets flustered too.

Kelly can't return soon enough for Dinwiddie.

Haha, got a miracle to Herslow... the only TOR REC capable of catching tonight.

Hey Dinwiddie, how about a hot route??
