Quote from: Blueforlife on September 18, 2025, 04:50:57 PMYeah forgot about Scott who looks great but Theis has been good and did some returning as well?

Theis had the one big return for TD because teams thought he was useless.  Now that teams know he's not useless, he is limited to meh returns.

Theis is a plodder.  He got a few good runs in because teams didn't really understand him until they got film.  And MTL is pass-mostly this season, and they set teams up for unexpected runs, which makes Theis look better than he is.

I will predict right now Scott is the RB they start in the post-season.  Not Theis.  Especially if their main returner (Letcher?) is healthy.
Never go full Johnston!

I think Theis could evolve like AJO did.  He could also be a good cold weather guy.

Ya, he is that same body type.  Needs to amp up the juice though to catch AJO!

However, he's not NAT.  If you're going to waste an IMP spot, it has to count.

Scraping the bottom of the barrel. Calgary signs Bonner.

Dave Dickenson seemed more optimistic on VA than he did Walker.

I'm hearing probably broken arm, so yes he'd be finished for the season unfortunately. I didn't watch all of that game and didn't see the injury to either QB. If VAJ misses the next game, they are in trouble.
One game at a time.

I didn't see it either got tired.  Just what I heard about the arm.  I did watch VAJ get popped, was woozy.

Boy, that's a weird one!  Is that a first?  So you skate through the week's penalties and think you're all clear because your name wasn't called.  Then next week they go back and fine you for 1.5 weeks ago!  No guilty party is safe!

Talk about insult to injury.  Not only is VAJ's concussion not fined (I guess he was "going for it!", barf) but they ding him for some crazy thing no one saw?  And doesn't Betss have like 100 lbs on VAJ?  LOL.

It's a fair cop.  Need to be better than that.  Save your head hits and fines for QBs who really matter... KIDDING!!

A whackton of fines this week.  Most this season?  Maybe league really is starting to take notice of the crazy amount of bad stuff going on out there.  But they still aren't addressing the crazy QB hits...
