Noeller

he's had one or maybe 2 "poor" passing games this year, and then 7 pretty good ones. His QB efficiency still leads the league at 107+. Just because the offense runs through Harris, doesn't mean Nichols is a bad passer. He's actually had a really good year till getting hurt. Listen, we can all cheer for Strevs and hope for the best without shitting on Nichols or just making stuff up...

has Matthews done anything of note since going to Montreal? I haven't paid enough attention to know...

he DID get fired and he's got nothing to do with the Riders anymore....I believe he now lives and works in Calgary.

this is easily the funniest thing I've read online today.....

Streveler, again only 24, just doesn't process the game as fast as Nichols (which Lapo has said is as fast as anyone he's ever coached) so he's not going to make the best decisions.....yet. Hopefully he can grow into it...

Strev has had a pile of bad INTs this year....that's the biggest thing for me. Plus the intentional grounding penalties which I don't think I've ever seen Nichols take. It's frustrating, but hopefully Strev grows out of it all. Only 24......

this is the absolute biggest thing for me. I want the guy who turns the ball over the least as my starting QB. We have all the rest of the pieces in place to win games....just don't lose it because of stupid decisions by whomever is behind centre.

some fun back-and-forth between Medlock and Streveler on Insta the other day about him running out of bounds....Meddy basically teasing him, saying he should do it more often, and Strev with a cold "No." So it's definitely a thing within the locker room...at least as a joke.

Couldn't care less about "a playoff spot"....I want 1st, and I want a GC appearance. After that, there's only so much you can control in a 1-game Winner Take All...just get to the dance.

Only 4.....but 3 names.........hmmmm

in 2015....

he'd only get the league minimum, and that's all he'd ask for, but even at that rate I wouldn't take him over a young guy with upside. I love Mo and everything he did for this organization, but yes....sad is the right word.

actually, if I remember right, Derek Dennis was complaining about them piping in actual smoke.....(it was actually fog...a super intense one) but yes, he's definitely a moron. And no, I don't believe the Bombers enhance the crowd noise. The insane crowds and natural acoustics of IGF make it that loud...

Complaining on social media is always a surefire method for getting your way.......oi. He knows how this business goes....there's always younger guys waiting in the wings. Never mind younger guys that don't have the serious injury history of ol' Momar....

a lot of this stuff about the crowds goes back to my long-held belief that we actually have more die-hard fans who are intelligent football fans. They definitely have a lot more "casual" fans that buy all the green gear because it's trendy to do so, but in terms of the true die-hards, who stick around through thick and thin, I really and truly believe we have a lot more of those. They don't need to be told when to make noise and when NOT TO make noise....they just understand football.

I would say "the majority" around here.....but I'm not saying they were right. I'm just saying it's "we're doomed" to "we're the champs!" pretty quickly.....I'm all about living that straight line.

there was an awful lot of hand wringing after the LDC loss....

You been hanging around snappin' pics, have ya.........?

Listen, I know that the Bombers are a good team. I believe in them. But there's a lot of chest thumping right now for beating a truly TERRIBLE Riders team at home. I mean, we PUMPED EM, and that's awesome....we are definitely a good team. But let's not start planning the parade route because we beat an awful, massively overrated Riders bunch...

this is a very fair statement....

yeah there was a lot of confusion but either Jeff Hamilton or Darin Bauming said recently that Nichols is, in fact, a FA after this season.

Just feels like two generic NI backs. They're "adequate" or "solid" but nothing special. But trust me, I'm Canadian football (and everything else) before American (...anything...)

oh man, you definitely don't know me at all....ha

I always go back to Raydawg's tweet after the Riders traded Collaros and gave Fajardo a new contract: "Imagine going all in on CODY FAJARDO!! Lol!!" Was true/funny then, is true/funny now...

I've personally thought that Augustine was a fancy way of saying Lafrance.....definitely better, BUT......
