    If he wants to come back and we don't sign him we're nuts.

     

    If the Bombers are not chasing him as hard as they can, they're nuts. He is not going to single-handedly turn the season around but this team is sorely lacking in competition.

     

    Considering the Bombers were in negotiations with him after he was released by the Patriots why would you think we wouldn't be trying to get him back now.

     

    Burke seemed lukewarm to the idea. Maybe thats just the impression I got but its questionable.

    Kyle and ken moll should airlift as much talent as they can. MSW's pedigree down south will serve him well, and it's refreshing to see we can still attract this calibre of talent.

     

    But I would also look at bringing in young QB's to develop on the PR, and a CFL calibre QB coach this season, or trade for a Willy/Collaros/Marsh right now! The stamps and argos coaching staff is loaded with ex-QB's mentoring these prospects. The model for success exists.

     

    Potential breakout talents like MSW will only be wasted if our QB ineptitude continues.

    And you're going to put this bus load of players where?

     

    I believe they all stay in Nates(or Lyles) basement.

  3. If Goltz plays poorly it should not be used against him. With this o line and this team you simply can't judge a poor QB performance accurately.

    Unless your QB is buck. Then a poor performance should result in his immediate death by firing squad. He's expected to throw, catch, run, block, tackle, kick, call plays and sing at half time.

    Whenever I read your posts about Buck I get nauseas.

    The response was, weak arm, couldnt throw, slow, too many INT, couldnt play when he left Winnipeg, elite receivers made him look good.

    wasn't a strong arm but it was good enough, fast enough to run when he needed to, certainly a lot faster than the likes of Ray or Calvillo right now. Lots of ints sure but a hell of a lot more TDs and a hell of a lot of wins in his time as a bomber qb. When speaking of receivers just think about 2002 for a while... Jones through 46 tds, almost enough for a record, Stegall had 23 but one was from Barnes so 22 from Jones, that still leaves 24 tds for Jones, only Calvillo threw more than 24 tds in 2002, that's a staggering number. even without his top receiver Jones was still top 2 in td passes. Not to mention that Charles Roberts was in double digits in touchdowns as well. 

     

    People maybe forget what happened to his shoulder in his last bit of time here. It was damaged and never able to recover properly. It's also worth pointing out that in Calgary he did have some success, the problem was that he was brought in by Dunigan and when he was fired they wanted to turn the page completely and with Jones being one of Dunigans moves he had to go to make way for Burris. Bottom line people who don't think Khari was a very good to great qb are morons.

     

    46 TDs.... have we even thrown for that many TD's in the 3 years with LaPolice and Burke all combined????

     

    Fun fact, if you discount the 23 TD passes Khari threw to Milt in 2002, he still only threw TWO less touchdown passes than Buck Pierce has in his four years here.

    I don't get why Denmark continues to play.

     

    Put MSW, Kelly or even Poblah in there.

     

    I'm sure that's not far off... except for Poblah.  Not much use for a receiver who can't seem to catch the ball right now.

     

     

    If Denmark and Poblah are both useless... at least Poblah's got the passport, and we maybe look at Bo Smith at safety. 

     

    Or an american-made saw horse to replace Morley/Swiston.

     

     

    I wouldn't say Denmark is useless.  He is second in receiving on the team.  Now say what you will about the team's receiver situation, but until there is a better option, Denmark keeps his job.  I'd say Pierce has to make an impact in this game or it will be him losing his job to Kelly or MSW.

     

    Him and Jade Etienne are also the only receivers to start every game. Not that big of an accomplishment. Denmark was mediocre last year and is probably even worse this year.

  6. If Edmonton no longer has use for Shaw, I'd like to see a trade made, kid has some serious leg, accuracy is his issue, maybe a call to the "kicking whisperer" would be needed.

     

    Something tells me that this isn't the last stop for McKnight. I'm all for bringing in players for competition, but bringing in players just for the sake of saying your bringing them in isn't a good thing IMO, maybe McKnight ends up being "the guy', but I just don't see it.

    Shaw is worse than Palardy, I don't understand releasing players and signing inferior replacements.

  7. Why are people complaining, do we not forget when Berry refused to replace Westwood and/or having scrubs coming in and out and us ending up with Serna as our best option??

    That'll probably be our situation this time next year, unless you have faith in Sandra.

  8. I don't care if a GM is on the sidelines during a game.  All you need to know about Mack interfering with Burke and the coaching staff's responsibilities is that the minute he was fired Sandro Deangelis was on his way to Winnipeg and Max Hall was the starting QB.  Clearly Mack was doing more than procuring players and managing from the front office.  The coach (and coaching staff) should decide who is on the game roster.

    You act like these are positive things.
