There shouldn't be any drop off from Lapo to Buck. It's been stated that he has been very involved in game planning. That and being a QB coach and former QB he should be very capable to run this offence. RR has a keen eye for CFL players that would be much harder to replace for us at this time.

Next the quarterback situation

It's going to be really weird seeing Lapo as HC on another sideline. But good luck to him

If the option is between losing Streveler or making him our #1 QB to start the year next year I'd do the latter. The guy is a leader and will run through a brick wall for this team. Like others have said, don't write him off as a passer yet. And at worst we could trade for Collaros at the end of the season again lol

The ratios can always change but I can't see ours doing so for next year. When Harris retires then we may have to think about doing something a little different...but until then.

Some guys just know what they're good at...

I hope Nelson gets another opportunity with us. IMO he could be a great weapon.

I think you might be surprised. Bird in the hand...

Saw that article. There's hater number 1. Wonder how comfortable those trophies feel up his ass

Wow I really don't know what to say. Like many others I wasn't old enough to remember our last Grey Cup. I was 4. My oldest son turns 4 this week and I just hope this is something he can take for granted when he's older: The Bombers winning the Grey Cup! Go Blue. Love this team.

Hamilton was the best team this year. Who is the best now is the only thing that matters. The Bombers have ascended through the West beating the defending Grey Cup Champs and a very good Sask team in their own barns. Hamilton may be steeltown but its the Bombers that have been hardened and ready to take home the cup. Go Blue.

I don't think anyone is saying this is a verbal contract. Just 2 guys being on the same page. That is absolutely worth something. Unless you think that Walters is posturing (doubt it). Most likely situation here is the one presented, and outside of a few media guys trying to stir the pot, there is no reason to think O'Shea doesn't want back here.

Yeah if you have a QB in your hand that can win you a Grey Cup, a first rounder doesn't seem like a big pay.

This seems fairly reasonable to me. But I worry that Nichols might be just good enough to not win the Grey Cup. Every once in a while you need your QB to be able to handle some pressure and make a play moving around the pocket.

There were a lot of people whining about Collaros coming here too. Masoli threw for over 5000 yards last year. Has the ability to extend plays. Was really coming into his own. There's a lot to like. Football IQ.. Hard to quantify that

I feel like starting qb money is at least 450 at this point. Also guys aren't lining up to be a backup qb for the Argos

Deep passer yes. Probably because he has a stronger arm

I think part of it is that Zach knows he can buy time and evade a guy before throwing deep if he needs to. If Nichols is pressured he is going to get rid of it

They haven't been calling any objectionable conduct this year. In the not-so-distant past they would be calling taunting for 99 percent of the plays in that game (or any game this year for that matter). Whatever, if they are consistent about it..fine. But as soon as you start smacking other guys around after the whistle that should definitely be a penalty.

Collaros is just getting better and better . Last couple of games he made some questionable throws. None of that today. The only thing he could have done better was hit Darvin on that bomb to seal the victory

Objectionable conduct used to be a thing. I think the only time it gets called now is if someone says the N word and the refs know who said it

That and regardless of throwing motion didn't he end up throwing it backward?

Maas and Harris are two peas in a pod. Completions don't win games!

The answer is they probably can't. But one wild card is that they are really good at getting pressure from their front 4. That said, Dane Evans was able to beat our pressure in the games against us. Hamilton Imo is the favourite for the cup. They have been rock solid all year

Trevor Harris is pretty good at beating up bad defences and is pretty good at throwing completions and settling for FGs against good defences. I don't think that will be enough to beat Hamilton
