Ho boy, that really takes me back.  Joey 'the ego' Elliott - could only make completions against zone coverage. 

I am not sold on Trevor Harris. In the Ottawa vs. Montreal game last week, he did nothing, possession after possession. Well, other than rattle off long snap counts. 

Bombers have the worst passing attack in the league, right now.  Lack of poise and errant throws from Nichols, receivers who don't make plays, and a scheme that seems to go into a shell, as games wear on.   Until this gets straightened out - the losing will continue.

Wait...do you live down here in New Mexico? 😉  That is our line down here...ha ha

The Riders?  Really?  I had to pull out one of the airline barf bags I stole on my last flight when time ran off the clock.  And I was listening to the game online.  I have no clue what would have happened if I was watching the game.

What is happening?  Even Montreal beat the East leading Redblacks and our team is struggling to hold onto the crossover position.  We want to go that route through Hamilton and Ottawa....IF WE CAN WIN another game. 😉

Okay, back to my Labor...Labour Day off down here.

A video I did for my YouTube channel for my small town of Belen, New Mexico.  Enjoy.
 
 

Only one on the OL too.  2 of them Nichols statued against 3 man rush, didn't throw it away, didn't scramble, just hunkered down until the Riders worked to him.  On the 3rd one Hughes and Jefferson turnstiled both tackles.

Almost as absurd as the Davis TD INT in Calgary.  
This offense, whether it's Nichols reads, Lapo's calls or combo of both, tries way too hard to challenge the width of the field and not enough to challenge the depth.  Just too easy to defend.  Harris breaking tackles and getting loose for big runs is the only positive, Demski the odd time too.

His 2nd half stats this season are absurdly poor.  First half are average.  For interest sake, Nichols has now posted 3 games of net offense worse than Streveler's worst against Hamilton this season, including his own start at home vs Hamilton.
Combination of Lapo, lack of reliable receivers and Nichols struggles = disaster.
Just imagine if Harris gets injured, how terrible this offense would be.

Another second half collapse. We see that every game. What do the players do at halftime? Smoke weed? Don't answer that.
 

Hard to believe in all of America the 3 mostly useless but occasionally spectacular import receivers we dressed today were the best we could find.  Horrible.  Did anyone of them catch half their targets?   Why can't we use Simonise and Petermann at all?  It's reaching the point where they couldn't be worse.

No idea what the f*** has happened to Matt Nichols but it doesnt matter anymore. He plays scared, cant move the pocket, and cant hit receivers consistently. He's crippling the offense. The excuses are over. If the season is going to be salvaged, Steveler needs to be given a chance but MOS doesnt have the balls to do it. Nice job proving Rod Pederson right Nichols.

Nichols can't throw worth a krap anymore

What more can be said about the best?
 
 
 

I really think Wolitarsky is being criminally underused .. this guy just screams Jason Clermont to me .. that's a body that could be used in the slot.

The mob is just realigning their sights on their next punching bag.

He started hitting his receivers because they added extra protection.  The Bombers' adjustment needed to be made in coverage.
All I'm saying is - to say that they were not getting pressure is false - that's the primary reason the Stamps only had 12 points at the half.
 

As long as he can catch the loaves, as well as the fish......

Hey! That averages out to more than 1 per game!!!

Ummmmm , I seem to recall a past wager that went unpaid

I just got back from a flat earth convention. The Bombers need to get it together or we’re all dead. 

So Toby is gone I see.....signed with MODO in Sweden.

The young defender is still without a contract, and the Canadiens should be inquiring about his services.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's just delusional. Jets are not trading Morrissey, they're just trying to lock him up long term. 

Ummmm Starbucks?
