A lot of people?

I agree.

I do enjoy watching Montreal take a good beating. I'll be watching, CR in hand.

Unless you let your thoroughbred out of the barn to run the race, you are never going to know if you could have won the Kentucky Derby. That being said, in hindsight I'm ok with not playing Marve yesterday. But I would strongly think about giving him first team reps this week, and then giving him a whole half against Montreal. It's time to see what he can do, with actual prep, and plays drawn up for him.

Khalif Mitchell....calling Khalif Mitchell....

You would think a kid would be happy to sign with any team that wanted him. The whole I won't sign with you thing is so last century/Lindrosian. I liked Lemeieux's point totals with Barrie but his penalty minutes were pretty high and he also had a pretty bad +/- rating. Season Team GP G A PTS +/- PIM 2014-15 Regular Season Barrie Colts 57 41 19 60 -9 145 2013-14 Regular Season Barrie Colts 65 27 26 53 -5 145 2012-13 Regular Season Barrie Colts 42 6 8 14 2 52 Total 164 74 53 127 -12 342 The table won't post properly, but he played 164 games with Barrie, had 127 points and 342 penalty minutes, and was a career -12. On a pretty good team.

Definitely going to Penticton this year to watch the young stars, especially the Jets. Ehlers should be owning people again like last year. I picked Johnny Gaudreau in my pool last year (and won because of him) purely from what I saw him do at that camp. I knew he was going to be lights out awesome.

I don't think it is over the top. Did you not watch that awful performance yesterday??? Brohm threw TWO pick sixes!! I'd prefer a mustache-twirling Tom Porras to that right now.

I think you are confusing fanbois with fans who just want to see a QB in for us who is going to have the best chance of winning. With Willy's noggin getting a'floggin' (Ned Flanders h/t) a lot of us don't see Brohm as that guy.

I've been waiting for him to poop his pants and he hasn't done it yet. Meanwhile, I watched Brohm play the whole second half weighed down by pants full of poop. I'm not sure how wishing one of our most promising QB prospects in years poops his pants helps the team, or anyone for that matter, but what happens if Marve goes in and lights it up? Five years from now are you guys still going to be waiting to do the Nelson "Ha ha" when Marve eventually does have a bad outing?

I picked Marshall this week so I'm good, but does it still count if LH misses the convert?

Nothing is going to fix that noodle arm though. He throws Max Hall-like rainbows that take an hour to get to the target.

That reminded me of the hit Kuale laid on Buck a few years back. Or the time Buck got creamed by Craig Butler. Or the time that Edmonton linebacker (can't remember his name) nailed Glenn.

Yeah, and? And? Ok i will try to make this easy for ya,its like leaving your goalie in when he has let in 10 goals and then stating we may need him next game? See? Let me make this easy for you. You leave the backup QB in to give him reps...to get more practice so that he's ready for the next game. You don't pull him and shatter what confidence he has to put in another backup QB. And what if the 3rd stringer sucks too? You going to pull him to put in yet another backup? Were you not around when Burke did that **** to this team and completely destroyed all the QB's we had with what little confidence they had? The Bombers should roll with Marve for as long as Willy is out because Brohm offers no upside and has not demonstrated an ability to throw nor run the ball. He is awful in every sense of the word. When Brohm was running that sneak into the endzone I honestly thought that I had hit the slow mo button on my remote by accident.

Sometimes when I read posts like this I honestly think I must live in an alternate universe, and some here are definitely in dreamland. Do you guys just pass out automatically when Marve is on the field? Is that why you can't see what he does on the run? I also don't get this need by some here to crap on Marve. Why don't you like him? Did he pee in your corn flakes or something? No one here is crapping on Marve. What we're doing is laughing at those of you who think Marve is some kind of savior. You just called him deadly accurate. He's not, and the stats show that. Marve's fancy footwork distracts everyone from the fact that he's still green behind the ears. yeah yeah the stats show that blah blah blah. Go and watch that home game again from last year against Calgary. He threaded a twenty yard pass on the run while being chased right into the arms of Brett Carter. I can count probably on one hand how many Winnipeg QB's I've watched over the past 20 years who could have made that throw, and completed it, on target. That's talent that you can't teach.

Saying he's got the most "innate talent" since Clements and Dunigan would suggest that he's more talented than every QB since, would it not? no it would not. But that's beside the point. Collaros doesn't play for the Bombers. If he did, and I was arguing to play Marve over Collaros, then perhaps your argument would have merit. It would be insane hyperbole to suggest that Marve is better than Collaros at this point, because he isn't. But he's all we've got. And I think he has a lot of talent.

I don't either, but what other choice is there if Willy can't go? Brohm is yet another in a long string of noodle-arms that have come and gone. He looks like a hybrid between Mike Quinn and Max Hall.

And if Dominique Davis had led us to a win over Calgary last year I would be chanting for him to come in too. See? See the difference?

What the hell are you talking about? Where did I say that he has more talent than Collaros? I just said that he has innate talent. And that he was born to play in this league. Well then I guess we've been watching two different QB's. Marve can throw with deadly accuracy on the run. Brohm couldn't throw with any accuracy from the pocket. I want to see what Marve can do. I've seen enough of Brohm to know that he can't do anything.

I thought I saw Willy on the sidelines in a ball cap in the second half?

I have a lot of respect for your football knowledge. That being said, I have been watching CFL football for 40 years or so. Brohm is awful. Marve has more innate talent then i've seen in any quarterback in the CFL since Tom Clements or Matt Dunigan. He was born to play in this league. If the Winnipeg coaches can't see that, it will cost them their jobs.

Watching Brohm out there just had me screaming WHY at the TV. I was having Boltus flashbacks.

As far as I'm concerned the NHL can blow it out their keesters. The Bombers need these Grey Cup events for survival. The Heritage Classic is an over-done gimmick that truly sucks ass.

LOL - this reminds me of the joke about the guy climbing the ladder to success.
