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

  • It's similar in some respects to IGF but very different in many ways. My (scattered) observations: I was on the East Side, wayyy up, third from last row. @trueBlue83 sat behind me. We seemed

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. 

I just was picturing all of Regina yelling in their cars on the way home which made the whole thing kind of funny.  Stadium was all loud with boos.

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.

It's on page 57.

It's relevant because he's not a passer once he establishes himself as a runner.  Check the case book.

Disagree it was cheap.  Should have been 15.  But they missed it because it was a marginal hit on a runner.  Jeffcoat didn't launch himself.  He went up shoulder to shoulder and Bridge's head dropped when he chucked the ball.  There's no intent, they all need to protect their damn heads though.  That hit is as dangerous for the hitter as the guy being hit, wish guys would tackles with their arms and hit/tackle at the waist.

Is anyone going to congratulate Mike O'Shea for getting the playoff monkey off his back? I'd imagine he's feeling pretty damned good right about now.

They need to have review more accessible for lots of issues.

There has to be some onus on the player to protect himself as well, Bridge put himself in that position, Jeffcoat didn't even unload on him.
