after enduring 6 sacks in 2 games and having a shaky game in Fargo, we checked out Blake Riggins. He is healthy no injuries or concussion, However we've decided to Plug in Bobby Burnett at starter for our next game in Chicago. and expect Blake back for week 15 ready to roll.

We may have lost but we came really close too. not much to do except to clean up the third downs and get ready for next weekend.

Heading due east for Baltimore to face the Ponies. Blake's back under center this weekend as we proceed to chase a wild card slot in the playoffs.

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

Dom and I discussed it and we gave bonny a shot under center for Christmas weekend and he delivered us the present of a Win against Easton. and from what I saw everyone rallied strong behind him. this gives me us all confidence

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

Blake's been a shining star and has blossomed into a true team leader like I foresaw. I dare anyone to say we drafted a bust.

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

First off I have been proud of this teams progress. we're 4-4 healthy record and still in playoff talks.

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

Oh gosh I've been out of it for a while. but I'm back to tween before Christmas!

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

and as a Former Quarterback I have to say i'm excited to be working with a solid QB room, Riggins is solid Bobbby's good too, Between Jeremy and Johny it was hard to decide between them but we got 100% solid depth

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

Dominic here: This is my first season as head coach of a team where we have bits and pieces of other teams and free agents, but I have to say based on practices I've seen we got a good squad of talented players

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

Johnny Acres will join the practice squad and we'll keep him around as he's shown us quite a bit and could grow into a something special in this league

[Portland Roses UFFL @RosesPortland]

After conferring with Dominic, we've made our decision on the QB line up
Starter: Blake Riggins
Back up: Bobby Burnett
3rd String: Jeremy Ross
