    Given there are starting NFL quarterbacks who miss wide open receivers (It's sports. Mistakes happen shockingly enough), it just goes to show how absolutely clueless this comment is.
     
    Players in the CFL are here for a reason. That's not a shot against the league or players, but it's just a fact. You're going to see a lot of mistakes not just by quarterbacks, but at other positions as well because of the quality of players.
     
    Idiocy.

    Give Nichols a chance to see if he can develop chemistry with Smith.    Denmark has been pretty quiet the last two games as well.  I don't necessarily like the move, but lets see what happens.   Honestly who would you pull to put Smith in?   Dressler?  Kohlert?  Shepphard?   This is a good problem to have.

    I think the turnaround is due to Nichols.  For whatever reason, Willy had/has a very difficult time reading defense, and Lapo's offence doesn't suit Willy's play style.
    When Nichols took over, the offence immediately clicked.   That sent a message to the defense: "The offence will move the ball, so let's get it back to them".    That probably sparked the brain child in Richie Hall to say "Hey we can be more aggressive". 
    Benching Willy provided the chain reaction of sparks that this team desperately needed.  Benching your highest paid player,  sends a very clear message to the rest of the team.  We're seeing it paying off. 
    Just my .02

    captaincanuck12 got a reaction from Mr Dee in How long is Willy's leash?   
    The offence sputtered once again when it was needed.   10 first downs in 3 quarters of football is flat out atrocious.     We forced two turnovers inside the 25 yd line and came away with 3 points!   Turn those into 2 TD's and we win this game.  Willy is still is very inaccurate with his throws and overthrowing or under throwing his receivers.  The boos he received tonight were well deserved.
    The defense got shredded again tonight, but still gave us a chance to win.    This loss is on the O.

      I'm curious what the board here thinks on how much more time to give Willy?   Is the fact that we have no running game (no surprise there) contributing to his awful performance?  Should he be benched in favour of Nichols?  Thoughts?

    I just hope that LaPo breathers some new life in a very stale offence.  I wasn't too impressed by pre-season, but I think they were holding back.   GO BLUE!

    I think Marcel B. needs to be on the chopping block.  There is no imagination on the offence.  It's struggled since he was brought on.

    Well I'm certainly not on medication.   And I probably should clarify my statement of  "last year was a good year" because there was improvement both on and off the field.  I'm not happy we have the longest Grey Cup Drought. but I see a positive change coming and I think we'll be poised to end that drought.

    captaincanuck12 got a reaction from DR. CFL in Time For The CFL To Levy Fines On The Refs For Tacky Calls   
    I'll chime in here. There was one situation a few years ago in the NFL game. I was watching a Chargers Broncos game in Denver. Rivers had thrown an "interception" . TV replays showed the ball hit the turf. San Diego challenged the play however the replay system wasn't working. As per NFL rules the ref Waited the allotted 2 mins and since the system still wasn't working Denver retained possession of the ball.
    Yes it happens in the NFL too. Its annoying but it is part of the game.
    I'm pissed that it happened. I'm pissed that the officiating is a joke. But WHY THE HELL CANT OUR OFFENCE SCORE SOME BLOODY TOUCHDOWNS!!!!! that burns my @$$ more than anything. Theses losses would be Wins if we could start putting majors on the board!

    captaincanuck12 got a reaction from DR. CFL in Wow, was I wrong ...   
    This love affair with LaPo is getting tiresome.  There was a reason he was run out of town when he was the Bombers OC back in 2003.    And we brought him back in in 2010 for some strange reason only to can him 2 years later.   Lapo's record while he was HC was 16-28.   Not exactly great numbers.   LaPo isn't coming back. IMO he was a terrible HC.
     
    I think Burke is in way over his head.   Put him back to Defensive HC, and find an HC who knows the CFL to run the Bombers.  The coaching carousel has to stop if we are to have any consistency going forward.
