Maybe the smacks upside the head on Wallace worked!

Demski putting the team in his back

[TecnoGenius]

...I guess not every time a player's helmet hits the turf does it result in a concussion?

You know as well as I do it's a cumulative thing, and a probability/risk thing.  Are you trying to say you don't hold your breath every time Zach's head hits the turf?  Really?

Why can't someone come up with a special helmet for QBs

Demski is unquestionably our MVP this year, we d be dead without him

Why can't someone come up with a special helmet for QBs

Been saying this for years.  They put all the protection on the crown and ignore the back, when concussion-prone QBs need nothing but head-back protection!  Crumple-zones, cushioning, pillows, anything!

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Sucks for Ball. He's been getting better and better all season. Came from basically nowhere in the depth chart too.

Riders fell apart in the second half against the Stamps. Hoping for something similar in this one.

I'm so miffed I didn't get Demski in fantasy.  I wanted him so bad and tried to make it work but I just couldn't afford him without royally sacrificing everyone else.

I had to take Busby instead as a budget move.

that's a cute baby !!  congrats Lauther

Ya, but maybe he's "throwing it" for SSK... because of who his dad is     

Or maybe it's the opposite!  SSK radio & fans fired Ballsy so maybe Ballsy & son hold a grudge         

[TecnoGenius]

I don't know why SSK even bothers running up the gut.  Our edge is always weak.  Teams have been reaming us on edge runs all season.  It's so bad, and frustrating.

Then look how SSK's edge stopped Brady cold on his first run of the game.  Why can't we do that?

[Pete]

what is vaughters doing thats several plays he looks lost

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Vaughters has been pretty bad today.

Off topic....  Tecno did you see that Bighill is playing in Calgary tomorrow!
