Way to go Riders. Once again our Defense played a good game , still to many mistakes on offense but liked how the coaching staff is at least making an effort to get the ball in Turners hands more.
At halftime a group of guys were making comments on Davis about him not being ready to play. Got to give the kid credit for having the desire to compete but it's very clear that he isn't ready yet. Why not just hold him out until Wooster week and possibly the playoffs where we will need him at his best? I know it's a hard call but the big picture is more important at this point. Having him out there on the field now is more of a hindrance than any good he can do. Yea it's hard having to sit a player like him but IMO I'd rather have him down the home stretch rather than risk something happening to him that we'd lose him for good.

Try not to be a doctor because you just dont know. He cannot injur his knee anymore than it is. His knee buckles every now and then and he walks it off and is fine. It didnt matter what game he came back in because it is still a torn ACL. Luther from Lake had same injury last year and plated through it. Having Matt Davis back gives them an emotional sparkRiderpower;917829 wrote:Way to go Riders.

Hey 300, looks like the Knights have gotten seriously better over the course of one year. Looks like it'll be a barn burner at Follis Field here in 3 weeks or so. Hopefully no dead possums mysteriously find there way onto the buses for the trip home this time. :laugh:

It was a good win. I sure would like to see the replay on the 2 pass interference calls and the no catch call the stripes made...:thumbdown:
We made some adjustments at half with our defense...nice job coach Haley!:thumbup:
Way to go Riders!

Old Rider.....1st interference call was clearly a trip. 2nd call the defender face guarded Arnold as well as mugged him before the ball arrived. On the dropped pass, I noticed your receiver never got animated about the call.....that usually means he knows it was the correct call.:thumbup:
And those adjustments made at half were huge. If Snyder doesn't drop a sure interception in the 1st drive, RR never score that TD. Oh well, great game by both teams.

I am not an Orrville fan so I rarely attend their games. Not unlike you, yet I don't claim to know all the facts to correct their ills.
My point was to simply admire the fans who sat through a rough weather set to see the game.
Were you at the game or were you at home in Canal Fulton?
You want to criticize everyone. I will meet you whenever and where ever then lets see who runs their mouth after that.

Lets get one thing straight OQB. You sucked when you played in Orrville. When people think of your name they really have to try hard just to remember who you are. I personally cant think of any great play you made or impact you had. You were terrible!!! Stop talking crap to me. Where are you playing now you knucklehead? You are a has been but actually you are more of a never was!!! Is your name Brett Wertz, or Brent Werntz or what on earth is it? You better not try to talk smack with me because you cant hang son!OQB;919117 wrote:haha love it!
