That’s a little harsh. If that happened to Nichols we would be up in arms too.

I can see Jeffcoat being suspended for that hit

He won’t. If Willis didn’t he shouldn’t. Just a fine.

I believe we have the first regular season win and the first playoff win in their new stadium.

Riders got away with a lot of holding, a brutal late hit out of bounds on Wolitarsky, and a free touchdown on two phantom PI's.

If it happened to Nichols it would be a penalty because he'd be in the pocket.

Your QB can't run around the field 60 yards and then complain about getting hit on that play.

A win is a win, I'm glad Streveler got some game time as a change of pace. 

My only gripe was Demski being to cute and our weak return game. I think if we clean those things up we have a shot against Calgary.

I hate that Bridge is in concussion protocol, but one call or missed call doesn't make a game.

 

Sorry but Rider fans do this, they will never admit to getting out manned and run over.

Demski is a problem. 

He's had some moments but unless he takes a pay cut Petermann is a cheaper version of him, and a better receiver.  We'd lose the running between the tackles piece but Demski is only great at that when he has a lot of room.

And two botched PI calls gave them a chance.  Can't complain.

See, this is why their fans are dumb cuz they blame the refs for one missed call that didn't go their way when they don't get any holding calls against them.

It’s the hit to the head that is the issue. I’m sure all of us would be infuriated had that happened to Nichols.

Penalty no penalty who cares the game is over the right team won that's all I care about.

Sorry Rider fan, not everyday is your lucky day. Your luck ran out today. See you next year. 

It was a shot to the head but Bridge did leave the pocket, rolled out wide left & then cut back into the middle into the teeth of the Bomber defense when he threw the ball. Bridge took that shot when he probably shouldn't have cut back inside. Not saying what Jeffcoat did was okay but that is the risk a qb takes when he does that.

Are you pretending you're a Bomber fan? I see your color is green. 🙄

I just am letting them know who's got bragging rights and what will happen if any of their nutjob fans come here complaining.

Love the gutsy win, but I'm just saying the rule book specifically states the following:

A player shall be penalized for any act of Unnecessary Roughness to the passer, including but not limited to:

(b) Any blow to the neck or head of the passer,
(f) Contacting the passer if either the initial source of contact, or primary source of contact, is the defender's helmet.

Whether or not Bridge was inside the pocket is irrelevant, if it's a hit to the head, or even if the defender leads with their helmet - it's a penalty.

Let's quit talking about it. How about that Andrew Harris? That guy is unreal. How about the masterful job Nichols did managing the game today? How about that O-Line? Cheung, Bryant, Hardrick, Neufeld, etc. were all awesome and beastlike today. How about the clutch grabs by Dressler and Adams? How about the TD by Woli? How about that ST tackle by Bennett at the end to save a huge return? How about Money Medlock kicking the lights out? How about the huge game by Jackson Jeffcoat? How about the tough running by Streveler?

I know, I am just still hyped up and excited from ending the drought.  Never fun to see a QB in concussion protocol, but yes I agree with you.  Maybe they should have gotten 15 yards, but I suspect Bridge still throws a pick next play.

I'm not questioning the headshot. What I'm saying is that Bridge put himself at risk by cutting back inside. Jeffcoat will be fined but Bridge put himself at risk as well. 

On the Bridge injury play I saw two riders blatantly hold two of our guys (Ogopogo) and zero calls.

You are at should have been a penalty.  Riders got away with it fen more penalties.  Tons of holding calls missed.
