Kenny Ploen was a surprising name on that list of QB's that have lost 12 straight. Probably the one and only time Collaros, Calvillo and Ploen will appear on the same list, though strange things do happen.
I know this is knit picking and I apologize in advance, but the gamble was on first down; Nichols faced pressure on 2nd down and threw it out of bounds. Same result in the end, either way...
Thanks for Odds and Sods, as always...
I'm in the process of explaining to the uninitiated what the hash tag 'Fort Hew' means. These guys ar really new to the game. I'm actually pretty excited to bring these guys to their first football game ever.
So I'm working outside this morning when Wade Miller cruises by. I, decked out in Bomber gear, cheer and wave like the shameless fan boy I am. He stops and asks me if I have tix. I say I wish. An hour later Wade's assistant hand delivers me and my coworkers tix to tonight's game. What a cool frikken guy.
Thank you Wade! Thank you Bombers! I know you just gained a few fans for sure. Can't wait to get to the stadium and lose my **** as always
Yes, but if you lose every close game on the last play you're also at zero. It's nice to know we have a QB that get it done when it comes down to it. 50-0 and 41-40 count the same in the W column,
Anybody watching this? Donny O chasing down the hapless Jeff Matthews for a sack. Bear Woods returns and Sutton is testing him early. Pretty sure Montreal will take this one.
I think that's basically what I said. "Nichols picks his runs with better vision." By that I mean he takes off at smart times. He also slides when it's the smart thing to do and lowers the shoulder when he has to. Buck lowered the shoulder 99% of the time. Gotta love him for it but he might have had a longer, healthier career if he would have picked his spots a bit better, too (only a specualtion). I do agree that Matt isn't the pure runner Buck the college track and field star was.
