Cry that there is no change then cry when there is.

I have seen crazier things happen in this league. Maybe the stability of the same QB every week will help things.

Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.

In Pierce's last 18 games (so a full season of appearances) here are his numbers:
And let's not discount the fact that we have to go all the way back to September of 2011 to total up 18 appearances.
 
240/395 (60.7%) for 3125 yards, 9 TD and 21 INT
 
In the same time frame (for fair comparison) here are the combined numbers of every other Bomber QB
 
394/662 (59.5%) for 4638 yards, 19 TD and 23 INT
 
For the record, here are some more numbers to chew on over that time frame.
Pierce is throwing an INT every 18.8 passes, while the other QBs averaged an INT every 28.7 passes
Pierce averaged 7.95 passing yards per attempt, while the other QBs averaged 7 passing yards per attempt.
Pierce averaged a TD pass every 43.8 (!!!) passes, while the other QBs averaged a TD pass every 34.8 (still horrible)
 
In that time frame, Pierce had one 300 yard passing game and three games where he threw more touchdowns than interceptions. That is absolutely horrible. In comparison, the other QBs we've trotted out have pieced together five 300 yard games (including a 400 yard game) and eleven games with more passing touchdowns than interceptions.
 
The last time Buck Pierce had a game with 2+ TD and 0 INT? August 26, 2011. He's only done it three times in four years with the Bombers. Joey Elliott and Alex Brink matched that number in 2012 combined.

At least ISO can't complain we don't have a quarterback coach. We have an actual quarterback that will be coaching!

This place is more relaxed. We have our discussions & arguments but I don't think anything has turned into a battle here with personal grudges. Definetly more leeway here & the mods are experienced which makes a huge difference. I know yesterday I was getting into it with some posters about Joe Mack. But, I'm not angry at anyone about it as we're all entitled to our opinions.
The key to a great website is being able to argue with someone on one thread & then completely agree with that same person on the next. Or at the very least, being civil with that same person discussing another subject. That's what this place is like now which is great

I'd rather just go with Goltz and revamp the offense to suit him instead of Broke.

That day hurt more than all the Grey Cup loses put together.

Never wanted to see a player succeed more than Jay Detain. Good on him.

I was thinking more of this Lamar

Turner also was awarded the Nobel prize in Medicine this weekend, as while in the hospital in Montreal he cured ovarian cancer and diabetes.

Brandon London 3 catches for 36 yards in two games yeah getting beat every play. SMH blind hate.

OL was great IMO.  The only way Montreal got pressure was by bringing more than 5.  Too bad our QB can't make a hot read and get rid of the ball.  Montreal's OL was having big trouble, even with most of their offence being quick screens and misdirection.
 
Hard to blame one guy in this sport, but the difference between winning and losing this game is the QB position.  Brutal turnovers, no drives at all.  The only reason this game was close, and there was a chance for us to win, was the defence.  Not surprisingly, they wore down in the 4th when the offence did nothing.  Exciting game to watch, but tons of room for improvement.

I think of it this way, need to have 15 of those guys play on the 42, 5 are the QB and specialist. You have another five that are back ups from last year, Volny, Jade, Labbe, West and Thomas. So really five guys last on the roster next week. I think there are some gems in there like Freddy Harris, Marrket, Wild Pierce and Kennedy.

Great quote from JT Gilmore in the Free Press today
 
 
Hopefully this is the attitude the vets are going to bring to the game this year.

I thought this thread was about Hefney...my bad.

Forget windows, they should just seal it shut with a nice wall.    

I seem to remember a goalie in this town who did not report a DUI for two months. This will blow over (no pun intended)
