Goalie

Parity is real in a 9 team league minus a couple eastern doormats

They likely sit him cuz hes 23 24 and green as goose **** and dont want to ruin him... Let him develop properly and you might have something there. Throw him to the Wolves and hes another QB in a long line of guys who fans wanted that turned out to be crap. Are you serious here. A QB controversy? Id suggest ppl go back and read the Hamilton loss thread.. Strevelers last start

You are going on about a guy who walked out roughly 1 year ago. Im sorry that your point is irrelevant today. Thorpe makes zero difference last night. I mean do you have a flux capicator so we can go back in time 8 months to when this was relevant

Yes. The experts are wrong and you are right. Bombers ARE loaded with O talent. Its just that our OC has no answer when our main one, 33, gets nothing. Our O is pretty 1 dimensional and predictable. You can accept it or not. Its the truth. You take out Harris and we suck... The talent is certainly there tho.

He does need to toughen up. If a guy cant deal with fans booing then he's pretty soft. I like the pretending tho on twitter that we are the first team to boo the QB tho.

Ill say this.. Its not happening anytime in the near future but when MOS moves on... I hope to god we don't recycle some guy who has had chances and failed as a coach. Thats Lapo.

He walked out so its irrelevant. Petermann played last night. He deserves more opportunity

34 catches. 34 balls thrown his direction... Zero drops. Lankford had more drops last night than Collins has had all year.

1 and done likely in the playoffs.

Your point is irrelevant tho. Thorpe left.. He walked out and now he's gone from the league. Ricky Collins is a better example. Not some guy who couldn't sit and wait for a week or 2. Guess what if he waited he'd have played and might still be in the league.. The guy did sweet eff all elsewhere.. So really don't think hes a good example at all. He wasn't cut.. He walked out.

What a poor example. A guy who walked away on his own and is now where? Greeting people at Walmart?

Ahh.. The made up narratives. Ok. Was it Oshea or was it Lapo who has a longer history of leaving the Vet in all game? Lol. It proves nothing. 2 minutes to go.. Who cares. Was it dumb? Sure but that's all it was. Dumb.

No. Our players got outplayed and beat by their players. Yeah its coaches missing throws and dropping balls and missing tackles and being beat by Ottawa receivers all night long. Its not the players tho.. Nope.

Why are people going on pretending that leaving Nichols in with 2 minutes to go was some terrible decision. It wasn't a good one but it certainly played no role in why we lost. I mean if the worst thing ppl can think of is Damn coach let Nichols play the last 2 minutes in a blowout loss then seems like its lots of bitching over nothing.

Nichols is soft..like mentally hes soft... The worst thing to happen today was not the loss to Ottawa.. It was the revelation our QB is mentally soft.. Physically broken.. Mentally soft. Damn it. That sucks. When the going gets tough... Our QB cries about it.

He also got rid of the ball quicker than Nichols did. 1 2 ball gone. Nichols you can sometimes count 1 2 3 4 5 even.. Streveler was quicker with his reads. Nichols has his Fav targets and he will sometimes look to them regardless.. Streveler seems to spread the ball around more. Quicker passes.. Shorter ones at that.. More ball control ish O.

Better than Lankford but likely not Adams or Dressler and Thompkins looks legit also but yeah Collins has zero drops this year.

Matt Nichols.. 9 TD passes in 6 games.. Less than 2 a game. Not good. As a team in 6 games with Nichols 150 points scored or 25 point average. Not taking in to account sp teams including medlock and the points the D have scored. Pretty shitty O production..

Ricky Collins lol

Sure. Lapo likely said Yes and so did Nichols and others likely said Yes also.. . I dont think MOS is a guy who would say NO when everyone else says yes. He trusts his coaches and players 2 much

We put up big points vs Montreal with the rookie QBs tho.. Highest point total of the year so far which likely inflates that 32 points a wee bit. I just did quick math.. Since Nichols has been back.. 6 games.. 150 points scored.. 25 points a game average. . And that's not taking in to account FGs and Fumbles and special teams so yeah.. Our O hasnt been good

I would agree. I'd like to actually know who made that decision. Im not convinced it was OSH as Lapo has a longer history of sticking with the Vet and giving the backup no reps.. Perhaps tho.. It was exactly what OSH said tho.. A learning experience for Nichols as in learn to pick up on the basic blitz.

OMG... The coach said Nichols is our best chance to win over a rookie QB? OMG.

He does. Streveler is a rookie.. He's not the guy you go with right now. Hes a rookie 9 games in to his CFL career. I like Streveler and feel he has high upside if developed properly but hes super young and green still. He needs time. Despite the Nichols bashing, he is our best chance to win. Ive seen enough backup QBs over the last 20 plus years to know you dont rush them.

In reality lankford is the equivalent to our 8th D man in hockey.. Hes the depths backup.. That depth tho.. Thompkins happens to be starting now and looking legit. Lankford isn't good but hes not a guy who is gonna really make a difference one way or the other. I noticed petermann and simonise on the field a bit tonight.. Tells me Lankford likely wasn't.
