"If Grant doesnt score, we lose" is such a bullshit ***** ass statement. If Grant doesnt score, the O comes out....in the 1st half. You're right, theres no history of the O putting up points in the first half of games. If's ands or Buts dont mean ****. What happened happened. Gtf over it.

I'm not saying I agree with the statement you quoted, but Streveler has what 4 or 5 Starts under his belt. Its not like they haven't see what he can do.

The general lack of football IQ in this city/forum has dropped in recent times. I cant believe how many people think Streveler going in was due to Nichols play and not the situation in the game. They did it last year too fyi. With Streveler back there, they now have 4 legitimate options out of the back field. While trying to kill the clock....but yeah I'm sure its cause they dont trust Nichols lololololololol

Maybe you didnt. But the Bombers absolutely did.

Post of the month candidate

Yeah I bet lol

They did against TO. Harris fumbled.

Remember when people thought this would sell out? Lol.

I dont even know why they're going to play it.

Please go find a post of mine where I say this isnt Nichols fault....I'll wait. It's never one thing. Multiple things go right or wrong on each and every play that will determine how that play works out. And it all starts and stops with the Oline.

I meant like, time will tell this year, like by october/November we will know.

I get this. And I feel the same. I'm just not sure how losing game 7 of 18 changes the overall goal? In fact I would bet that it doesnt at all. I know losing to the last place team sucks, but when good teams play badly....theyll generally lose. Is the goal to win every regular season game? Or to get to the playoffs and fight for the GC? If people thought 18-0 was even slightly a possibility, they were delusional. I'd rather this team lose to the Argos and ticats than the stamps and esks. The only time we will really see if Nichols and this team has what it takes to win a GC is October-November. Everything else is just preparing for that. As of right now they're still in a good position.

Saw that too, but during the last game they talked about how he hasnt thrown a ball past 10yrds yet. So I wouldn't bet money on his return this week.

It's just such a foreign concept. Hopefully Lapo will adjust, I'm sure now that the secret is out that a qb doesnt do well under pressure every DC in the league will plan to pressure him.

I dont know. I prefer, we're 0-2 the last two weeks with no possible hope of making the playoffs.

Who could have guessed that a qb wouldn't like pressure....truly ground breaking stuff on the forum these days.

If you cant understand how Oline play affects the qb, you should really go to a football 101 course wherever you can find one.

This forum is a becoming a ******* mess. Win 5 in july... grey cup bound, lose 2 in July, fire everyone and look forward to 2020. And of course... "Dont see the pro Nichols crowd out" while conveniently forgetting they were gone during the winning. Lol. Its Aug 5th, bombers are 5 and 2 tied for 1st with room for improvement. Hope you all enjoyed the long weekend!.

In the big picture you're right, he got us to 5-2 after 7 games. Beginning of the year I'd take that. Yesterday was ****, and I'm sick if Nichols panicked and outlet passes, but...still lots of games to go for the team. Hopefully Streveler starts seeing some significant time.

Jefferson Harris The refs who cant seem to figure out what holding is. Kongbo looked real solid.

Nichols will need to win a gc to restore my confidence. I called a Streveler take over around this time of the year during the off season. But after their start didnt think it would happen. It needs to

How did they get that spot soooooooo wrong?

Its not the calls, it's the overall strategy. Protect the ball no matter what. Never take the chances. Are you telling me you've never seen a game like this from a Lapo led offense? It's his calling card. Nichols didnt help. But Lapo is who he is. Nichols just makes it even worse.

This game was not one or the other. It was both.

I agree. But he had at least 2 drops. Good/leading receivers get open. And nichols needs to force it to him as well. Let the big man go get it.
