Colin Unger

Medlock was already considering retirement this season. So if he's truely close to retirement lets let FMB punt and have him learn each day in practice from Medlock so he can take over all 3 duties when Medlock retires.

looks like Bighill is stuck with #50

It was a beautifully executed fade route. He also was just out of bound on the 2 point convert. I'm not surprised he made it. He looks tough and physical and can also make big plays. Some guys don't look so good in practice but when the physicality comes into play they stand out more.

Yeah.. He didn't look off the charts by any means. He is still really struggling to read anything further down field. He typically attempts a short pass or rolls and tries to make something happen. Alex Ross looks like the better of the two quarterbacks right now.

I’m not interested in talking about players from back in the days before the current regime has had time to build up depth and talent. Nichols has only missed 1 game so far. Zach Collares and Drew Willy are much more injury proned at this point. Jennings has had injury problems as well.

Which players are you referring to. Outside of Neufeld not sure what to make of what you’re saying.

I still like Alexandre as a corner. He struggled as a halfback today. I say Gaitor and Leggett as halfbacks and Alexander as the corner opposite Randle.

TSN's commentary is an embarrassment. On the play where Seisay got an accidental pass interference when his foot contacted the feet of the receiver the commentator literally said the BC receiver had a step if not for the penalty. How the heck do you have a step when your feet literally contact the DB's feet????

Streveler the Competitor!

Where do you think the rumbling originated from?

http://3downnation.com/2018/06/07/dominque-davis-looks-just-fine-redblacks-pre-season-win-argos/ Personally, I wouldn't be relieved just yet if I was a Redblacks fan. Dom Davis has proven to be able to read defense well enough when they are running vanilla pre-season schemes however when the lights come up he really starts to look unsure of himself. Considering me skeptical.

It was a real relief to hear that Matt Nichols is only going to be out for 4 to 6 weeks. However, had we not all been led to believe that there was a good chance of a torn ACL this would have been considered bad news. Is it just me or were we played a little bit? Logically speaking it would make sense for the bombers to kind of leak out a doomsday scenario which they did through various sources. As a result everyone including the players seems to be in an optimistic spirit even though he's out for 4 to 6 weeks. Thoughts?

I agree with you.. Its highly unlikely Streveler starts game 1 of the regular season. If Ross is just awful again and Streveler shines again I think there's a chance it could go that way but still unlikely. Just don't see them throwing a rookie out of college out there in game one. Might be better to play him as the short yardage qb and if Ross struggles bring him in in relief a couple of games and then start him in game 3. It would be a lot to just throw a college qb in there in game 1 of the regular season without having even played a snap of pro football.

Please tell me there’s an app coming to PlayStation ect

I dealt with a similar "character" on Facebook. I don't believe it. If Nichols was out for the year I think they'd be more open to Darian Durant or trading for a vet. Secondly, if he was out for the year and had surgery I think it would get leaked out pretty quickly. I just don't believe O'Shea would be involved in a lie like this. If they were going to lie about the degree of his injury I think that they would do it to take pressure off their young quarterbacks and to not look as desperate in trade negotiations. I just don't see how it would affect ticket sales. If the team is really struggling without Nichols eventually ticket sales will dwindle until he actually steps onto the practice field and is named the starter that week.

In all fairness.. He was accurately reported what others were also hearing out of bomber camp at the time. And 4-6 weeks is still not the best.

The thing is that Nichols was doing exactly what he was asked to do. Protect the football, manage games, get wins. He was treated very unfairly.

I would imagine that at this point we will stay with what we've got at QB. If none of our guys show anything while Nichols it out and then maybe make a trade with a healthy Nichols rather then trading out of desperation.

Sara Orlesky has just tweeted that Mike O'Shea expects it to be 4 weeks but he will go on the 6 game injured list just in case but they can always pull him off early.

Yeah i agree.. I was just commenting on how the poster had said at least 4-6 weeks. I'm not sure who had said "at least".,

The nice thing is we only play Edmonton once and zero games against Sask and Calgary during his absence. We gotta win against Montreal, Hamilton once, and BC once and we will be ok.

Said whom?

The one nice thing if its a 6-8 week thing is that the bombers have a weak schedule in the first half of the season. A lot of the key west division matchups are in the 2nd half.

If they aren't in on Adams than that must be good news on the Nichols front??

http://3downnation.com/2018/06/07/june-jones-says-ticats-qb-vernon-adams-will-traded-today/ Can't see how this isn't to Winnipeg but article says Montreal or Edmonton. If it is Edmonton then I don't really get it? Are they planning to trade Glenn to Winnipeg?
