  1. On a side note... Toronto's D is awful.
  2. No way u can take Tony Pips out but Montreal will. Manziel will start when hes healthy. They gave up way 2 much to get him
  3. And coke and morphine He died of a drug overdose not cuz he was fat. That Speedball was a large part of the reason... Advanced atherosclerosis was cited as a "significant contributing factor." Basically exactly like his idol Belushi he drank and drugged himself to death.
  4. ******* Dramatic. Likely Lapos decision tho. Stop being so dramatic. He will never eeeeever be the same... Again. - Chris Jericho
  5. Nah. It would be nice if we won tho. Aint no way its must win. Must win = do or die. This isnt the scenario this week.
  6. Its CFL coaching 101. The same crap you say about MOS can be said about Dickenson Maas Buono etc... Those guys don't get taken out ever. Has Glenn even taken a snap this year? Has the Calgary backup? Besides the game where BLM got hurt? You are living in a stone age because the starters all get a ton of rope.. The Vet QBs especially.. I like Streveler but hes a rookie in year 1 still learning.. You put him out there now hes another Randall Dinwiddie Elliot Goltz Brink Etc etc etc... You be patient and let him truly develop and he could be our BLM or Riley. A long term solution. Problem here is fans are impatient especially with the QB position which is odd considering how many different superstar backups we've had over the last 20 years here.. I like Streveler.. Hes got potential.. But all this stuff was said about all the other guys who are greeting ppl at Walmart now also.
  7. Yup but our LB and Dline are way better.
  8. Worst D in the league = Edmonton.
  9. Will Nichols ever be 100 percent healthy tho? I mean hes pretty injury prone. Hes playing scared tho.. Afraid to get hit. Sitting him for a week wont change that. Its a mental thing.
  10. Nobody. Hamilton if you believe TSN but yeah.. Nobody really.
  11. Force turnovers and make them pay for it. In reality tho.. Who has Calgary beat this year thats good? Ottawa? That's about it.
  12. Thats BS. He just gives the starter extra rope like most head coaches do. Did Calgary take out BLM last game? Dont think they did. Nichols hasn't been good but.. Hes 4 and 2 as a starter right now.... Hes our QB... But if he continues to struggle then in a week or 2 or 3.. He will be on the bench watching. Bottom line.. You don't sit your starter to play a green rookie until that starter loses more than he wins. You got fans bashing Nichols but really fans opinions dont mean much and shouldn't. What matters is what the guys in the room think and looks like they all to a man believe Nichols is the guy. Was Nichols that bad tho? I mean did we lose because of him? Or was it cuz our D gave up 44 points? I dunno. Nichols wasn't great but he's certainly not the reason we lost or only reason we lost. . If i made a list of problems with the team Nichols is probably 5th on that list. 1. Hall 2. Fogg 3. Randle - he hasn't been good 4. Lapolice and our predictable O playcalling 5. Nichols.
  13. Unless they have decided to let Cody Glass go.. I don't see it.
  14. Good for the Moose. Hes got AHL experience
  15. Pretty good news. Jets also tweeted out 44 days to camp and had Morrissey as the gif. Not concerned tho as lots of RFAs around the league remain unsigned... Nurse and Nylander among others.
  16. The D wasn't good but we have been winning the last few weeks because of our D. Our O has gone cold... 25 points a game scored on Avg since Nichols returned. Not good enough.
  17. What do you want the D to do when the O goes 2 and out 8 times a game?
  18. Ill say it again... Nichols like Willy.. Like Collaros and many other QBs in the leagues history... There are only so many injuries you can get until you are done. Im not saying Nichols is done.. But i think Mentally hes playing scared. Hes got the deer in headlights look at times. He has quite the injury history so im not surprised. Hes not injured.. Or hurt... Hes just scared. Mentally hes fragile because physically hes starting to break down. Lets be honest... He hurt himself at practice.. Nobody touched him.. He got hurt on his own... His injury history is catching up. It also doesnt help that teams know this and know hes a 1 trick pony with zero ability to run the ball... Our O is quite 1 dimensional at the moment. Keep blitzing the guy and eventually you get to him and he starts to panic... They also know he cant read a blitz so... There you go. You got a mentally fragile somewhat injury prone QB who panics when there is slight pressure on him.. Who cant read a blitz. Thats the issue. The best thing to happen to the bombers this year... Durant retiring. The next best thing might be Nichols getting hurt. I dont wish injury upon him but... Our O is awfully 1 dimensional when you got a guy who refuses to run cuz hes scared to get hit.
  19. Its because there are lots of posters on here who only post after a loss. Its true.. I dont think its sunshine and lolipops after wins.. I think lots of us still tend to look at the faults of the team.. No win is perfect. No loss is total garbage either. There are always good plays or moments in every game that are memorable. It just appears that after a loss, ppl who dont post often do.. This loss tho is less about the loss i think and more about what Nichols said about the boos. Thats my main take from this week.. Losses happen to every team.. Hey Ottawa is pretty friggin good right now.. They are rolling.. Im not surprised we lost but i am a little concerned about how our QB and team in general it seems has responded to the booing. We have a good team... I just feel they have shown they are mentally soft.
  20. Nope. Its a tryout. Hes guaranteed nothing.
  21. Its pretty close. Edmontons D is worse than ours. Eliminate or contain the duck and Chuck O and Edmonton i feel is over rated
  22. Feel like a broken record but Takeover was fire. ERA MM Ricochet Cole Dream Thomasso could all be big stars in the near future.
  23. Edmontons D is not good. Montreal and Edmontons D are both worse than ours.
  24. I hope not. The last thing MOS should be doing is taking advice from raging lunatics
