To be honest Kongbo has shown enough already to be slated as the starter at end while Jeffcoat recovers..and an import at safety while he is in would be a decent idea...when you have sets where Roh subs in for Kongbo you can toss out Hecht or Jones I hope we are working or grooming Exume at the safety spot...I think he has the makings to be very good there...

Matt Nichols Discredited Too Much? Passing Yards Are Meaningless
I disaagaree...I specifically watch for this...and that is false...not sure if it's Lapo's influence or lack of trust...or Nichols headspace in not believing in himself, or "afraid" to make an int but guys are open...a lot of times too guys are there to be lead and thrown to spots that they can get ball..but he doesn't pull the trigger Especially with Matthews Iv'e noticed...and Lucky...if we just tossed it up and led them through their route..or threw it to a spot....the completion was there

Leggett
so true...good on teams...and to come in for certain situations...but in the long haul he's not a quality full-time starter...too many limitations in his game, and is not a sure tackler, someting that at safety you want/need

It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
to be honest...Edem is not much better...dumb penalties and cheap hits...tries for the big whallop and misses more times than he hits and is not a good cover guy...basically the same as Hecht t but Hecht doesn't take **** penalties like Edam....there is a reason he is on what his 4th team now with the Riders...it's not cause he was aggressively sought after Both teams could do better so they don't count since in same game? Also safety tackles not necessary a indication of dominance or success..more a sign of ball carriers are getting through the dline (a severly overpaid one that you can't deny) and second level... if you can't see that Winnipeg has better Canadian depth than Sask then you are a total Homer too...no...What Canadian starter...besides Edem (which you have stated already) would you switch if you could in a even swap..player for player? What rotational guy or back-up would you do the same?..

And that's what I noticed...and especially in goofy arena ball with the small confines..you need to cut and react quicker and in tighter spaces.

I'm just talking about his movement and speed..last yr he was so limited Christ hes younger than Hecht..among many others in the league who are starters

Bored so watching Arena Bowl...Moe with a 54 yard pick 6...looks a hell of lot more agile and faster than when he came back last year. Made some nice open field tackles as well..so far With our swath of db injuries I think he'd be worth a look..especially if Humes is out for extended time Knows system..knows league..seen it all..plays all db spots and Sam Be a nice safety rotation when we have Kongbo or Thomas in...he'd be excellent in over top coverage as well as run support...

It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
We run Harris a lot yup..in different ways and seem to be riding him a lot. That being said Gable has 2 less rushes (played one fewer game too) Powell has 2 fewer rushes..same amount of games..prob takes more punishment too behind an inferior oline Nobody seems to mention that those teams are walking the line of hamstringing themselves..especially considering we lead league in td passes..so we will be fine..

Redblacks @ Eskimos
We lead the league in TDs with 26..and lead in offensive TDs with 23 We have 197 offensive points scored good fir 2nd to Ham 199 Ham avgs 28.4 offensive points a game..best in league..we average 28.1 So we have a point producing offense regardless of what people perceive as short comings at QB Factor in as well that 60+ point game Hamilton got as skewing their points a bit and we conceivably could be first

nope hahahahahha

It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
Strev has really hardly had a chance to run the entire offence, let alone throw much..he's 9 of 13 for 82 yards..1 TD and 2 Picks..
-
It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
I think we should start him and let him and team have it known he is taking the reigns of the offence..the full offence for the first couple of possessions...let Nichols watch from sidelines and see how things develop, and play out...get a feel for the game and realize taking shots isn't the dangerous taboo it is assumed to him.. Regardless tf Strev goes 2 and out..2 and out..or puts together 2 TD drives...seen coaches do this before, and also seen it done to throw a curve against D -Coordinators and catching them with their pants down to kick start a game Works 2 fold as it allows Streveler to run the full package and put to rest the idea he can't throw..the dude put up over 4100 yards in his senior season with 32 TD's in 13 games...guy can toss the pill

Matt Nichols Discredited Too Much? Passing Yards Are Meaningless
Well he never turned ball over...got us in position to kick 2 field goals...another where we failed on 3rd and short...and put up 33 some odd minutes of time of possesion...effectively keping Cgy off the score board...there is that aspect that can't be understated Maybe it's football gods shining down on him for many many many games in 2016 and 2017 where he put up over 30 points as the QB and we lost because our defense couldn't stop a JUCO offence consistently

YEAH...us poor fans having to suffer through this garbage knowing that whatever happens the rest of the weekend we are still in first place...we got it rough haha

Matt Nichols Discredited Too Much? Passing Yards Are Meaningless
considering that the only free agents next year are Arbuckle..Streveler...most likely Bridge and other random back-ups...whom else do you suggest the Bombers sign??...Nichols is already under contract regardless, so he will be here...possibly re-structured, but Strev will be signed with incentive, and caveat that if he wins out as starter, he will get proper compensation for first time starter contract...can deal with the Nichols issues then after camp

YOU got to lose this Nichols hate....sure the team won....but if your team has a shitty goalie..a shitty pitcher...and a shitty qb...you are usually a shitty team...drop it already Do i wish Nichols showed more at times..sure...do I think if he plays a clean game and we score 20+ or more points (as a team) do i think he gives us the chance to win 9 times outta ten...yup i do

GDT-Stumps @ Bombers

Well we have one of the tallest (Matthews) and one of the fasted (Whitehead) and 2 guys (Adams and Lawler) who combine a nice combo of both...so....lets use them accordingly lol

so all Nichols does is check downs...yet is above league average in 20+ yard attempts....
-
It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
so in your opinion everyone sucks...but Nichols sucks the least....yet in your eyes he's not getting it done...odd take on things
-
It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
could care less what he gets for yards as long as we don't turn the ball over and win...just wondering...who has "thrown" for more TD's than Nichols this year?...and thats after 3 sub par games??
-
It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.
and we are 6-2 and in first..also lead the league in offensive TD's scored...hmmm
-
GDT-Stumps @ Bombers
2 Of 3 facets are usually needed to win a game...and we accomplished that..and won were pretty much even in total yards on offence..Calgary had 19 more yards but we dominated time of possession...so why don't we deserve the win?? And looking back on years past this was a game we would inevitably lose 9 times out of 10 and it would be noted that good teams find a way to win...so perhaps maybe warts and all...we are now that "good" team...hmmmm
