Horner & Calhoun

Go post somewhere else RJones and watch the game again. Why clap over an injured player when you just got burned, only to be bailed out by a holding call! :liar:

The defenders were celebrating a great defensive play. Just like they celebrated every great defensive play.


But hey, create what ever narrative you want, I suppose

Maybe on lots of other plays. But it wouldn't make sense to on that one. It was either 3rd or 4th and long and it was a 20 yard completion for a much needed first down. I don't know any defenses or players that would be excited they just gave that up.

That was not a twenty yard completion for a first down. The Griz punted immediately after the play.

Because there was a penalty

FALSE and here is proof:

And yes, penalties are listed on play by plays. There is no penalty listed. This is the last play by Jeremy Calhoun on the evening.

But hey eGriz, keep creating stories to make yourselves feel better about being bullied by the big bad mean Eagles.

There was a holding penalty on the play Horner got hurt. Go watch it. Other than that I didn't see anybody laughing at anything but doesn't mean it didn't happen either.
 
Just stop. I would be more concerned that EWU out physicaled us than any kind of dirty play. First of all. Horner's play should have been a touchdown(except our overmatched offensive line held). He was hit by the defensive back following the other reciever( I think it was number 6, but could have been number 8). This is the same play that scored a touchdown against Northern Iowa. The receiver should have been running a deep crossing pattern that took his defender to the other side of the field. Instead, he peeled off and hit Horner right as he was landing. The rules have taught these players to hit low, because if they do otherwise, they are getting a targeting call. His celebration was immediate and short lived. He made a good hard tackle.

Calhoun's run should have gone for 15 or 20 yards, but the offensive lineman was too late getting to the next level and Kupp made a good tackle that ended badly. Looking at it over and over again, I saw nothing wrong with what he did. It is football. It happens. If you want to watch a guy that makes a tackle and then continues to with the motion to inflict maximum contact, look no further than Strahm. He plays agressively and is one guy who will take the shot from the other team and stay standing and deliver it back. We are young, still not as strong in some areas as we need to be and ran up against a better team with more strength and experience in almost all the positions.

Wrong. Watch the replay. When Horner rolled over holding his knee, the EWU defender looked down at him holding his knee, and then starting clapping. It is obvious to me he was celebrating the injury.
 
All of the Eastern defense was "celebrating". They were celebrating the flag that would bring the play back.

When #18 looked down at Horner, Horner was on all fours and from that angle would look to be getting up slowly. It wasn't until #18 looked away that Horner rolled over grasping his knee.

GrizAtWork has a zero chance as a politician. Objective and truthful.

Horner is listed as the starter in the depth chart in the Game Notes for the ISU game. Of course, that doesn't mean the Game Notes are correct, as sometimes they are not.

They aren't. Horner is out.

Very happy to hear Calhoun is doing better today. It's my hope he takes the rest of the season to heal up. Besides, UM will be okay in his absence, they have Favors and JOEY COUNTS itching to step up!

What are we going to do with Counts?

With three weeks left in the regular season, and based on the nature of the injuries, I wouldn't bet the farm on either of them returning. Not wishing either kid any ill, but a tear of any kind is a fairly serious issue, especially in one of your wheels. Bingham has been more than capable, so finding him a backup is really important. Perhaps the Swiss Army knife of receivers steps in?

Calhoun needs to be especially careful because this is #2 this season. Having had a number of them myself, I hope they error on the side of abundant caution. I'm selfish in that I'd like to see him in the colors for another couple of seasons if things can be worked out. Time for some others to step up/in and get the job done. If the playoffs are possible, get them ready for the tourney and get others some valuable reps.
