I still think he's one of the best short yardage guys I've seen in a long time.  If we used him as a 3rd string and brought him in to do that kind of work I think it would help us a lot.  Boltus showed just how bad he was at...well...anything.  Even Brink sucked at short yardage compared to Goltz.  And if he was trained by a QB coach I think he could even be used for a fake.  Not knowing if Goltz is coming in to run or pass would be a huge benefit.  He wouldn't even need to be a great QB, just someone who can do a quick run or fake for us when we need it.  I personally don't think he's as bad as he looked out there near the end when they stopped using him.  I think MB favored is little useless puppet Boltus and both he and Burke tossed Goltz away because he wasn't the Reilly caliber QB Burke thought he was going to be.

Exactly why would Marcel know anything about what's going on with HC or GM?  Why would anyone tell any of the coaching staff, "hey, this is who we're hiring...so you know...get ready to pack your bags sucka's."  Especially if the HC is going to give you the boot and hire a new OC.

He is a really effective runner.  Maybe it would be worth keeping him around as #3 behind Collaros and Hall to run short yardage and redzone packages.  I know we like to be developing a QB but Collaros and Hall are both pretty young themselves so its not like there's any urgency to develop yet another young guy.  Goltz does one thing and he does it well... so let him handle it.

Ok, so Miller's quote is:
 
Miller:  Kyle's in charge of running the football operations, and working in that.  And this is a change that this organization is going through where we actually work together, and proper people are making the right decisions, now, in charge of players who's playing each week.  And we're getting to that process of getting the roles defined where we can all work together.
 
Media: Will you have some input on that...who's playing each week?
 
Miller:  Absolutely not.  Not my role.
 
Media: Coaching staff?
 
Miller: that's for the head coach and Kyle to decide.

Not if he buys them all...

If the Als are able to go from Calvillo to a new star QB over the course of half a season.... well that's just not fair.

Get in line...I've already accepted HC position from Mike.  You can be my OC.
 
By the way, the play book will have a lot of Nanoo Nanoo and AAR AAR AAR's in it.  So prep yourself.
 
Orsen...*cough cough...ahem* I mean the "Board of Directors"... has already allowed me to spend the money to change the field into the shape of an egg.

I don't know but Sammy Garza should make that list.  
 
I'm going to search the internet for the fat guy now.
 
FYI...WTF!?!?!?  How did Buck make our top 10 QB's?

I'm the same.  I'd start off as:

Yes.

So now close counts in football? As people have stated the record is the record is the record....ain't horses shoes, atom bombs, ballroom dancing, hand grenades or turd fights....close doesn't cut it.

With Calgary's staff, Goltz & Hall would have been coached up. Not left to hung out to dry.

Well.. Something I don't get is that no one is going to want to come here as a GM if Miller will be meddling. Not sure I agree. A GM will sign on for three years and build the team as they see fit. Miller can ***** all he wants but his hands are tied other then perhaps laying out a budget for personnel and coaching staffs. miller is not going to be able to fire the GM in the first or second year due to finacial hardships to pay out the contract and the optics of it all.
Which brings me to my second point. Any GM is going to get a 3 year contract, presumably, and be set with a steady income with the upside that they can transform a truly horrible team into something really competive. If they get fired they take a hit to their ego and continued to get paid.
Pro sport are very competitive and so are all the player, coaching and management staffs. They All want to show what they can do to the rest of the league.
Walters May be okay but it will only reinforce to the fan base and the rest of the league that the bombers are a joke and continue to promote people from within that are already part of the problem. If they weren't the team would be doing alot better.

That's what your AGM is for. Walters would still be there...and that's something where he'd shine. Helping Higgins work the books. Higgins strength lies elsewhere...brings a lot more to the table.

That's what I was thinking myself.  Miller's quotes didn't sound like he was totally behind Walters starting even though Lawless was fluffing Walters cushions.  Lawless reminds me of a guy that just wants people to fail so that he can bash them at a later date.

I think it's hilarious that we're so desperate for anything to pull us out of our hole that we're actually looking at a guy who is a GOD at playing .500 football seriously.

the guy has had poor offenses in his past stops, just because there's been little improvements the last couple weeks does not mean he's an offensive genius, just that there was a real low bar to step over. Let's set our sights higher than this guy. 

Some of you guys talk like this team is on "the cusp" and just needs a QB to get us over the top.
 
Our D is as fricken bad as our O, and our CDN content is shite. 
 
WOuldn't it make sense to pay for a GM who's been in full re-build before and has been successful?

I know JPan has said that he mis-read the tweet so this is probably a moot point, but this kind of thinking will bankrupt the Bombers, and your unwavering support to the Bombers here is misguided.  Any business that doesn't care about its customers will lose them in the long run.  You think people need the Bombers in the summer?   No.  There is plenty to do in this town (and out of town with cottages) that peoople don't NEED the Bombers.
 
The so called dedicated fan base is already starting to erode.  Fan apathy is already at an all time high .... and that is with people on this board.  Imagine how the average fan feels.
 
No business can take their paying customers for granted.  To suggest that it is okay for the to do so because "they are the only game in town" is ridiculous, even if someone is being "uncouth".   People have limited dollars to spend for the whole year.  Are they going to spend it with the Jets, where they get fan satisfaction and fan experience or the Bombers, where lately they have had one blunder after another.
 
I will continue to support the organization, buy my season tickets, but many fans will not.  This organization has a lot of good will to win back in the community.

Put Foster and Poblah in a paper bag, reach in and pull out your hand. What do you have? Nothing .....or maybe you dropped the bag.

Ya I really hope we don't get Tate. He's Buck 2.0 with a bad attitude.

Right now I would take Hall as our starter if we couldn't get Collaros or Burris. He would be my third choice out of the guys who are popularly believed to be available. I would rather stick with him than turn to DeMarco or Tate. Tate's a good QB but I just can't stomach the injury risks.

LOL...now that's funny.
