    I heard Deiter Brock on the radio recently (out here in SK) and he said he wasn't doing anything...SO...if he can still throw a football even 40 yards from his knees...heh, that's good enough for me!!

    Khari deserves coach of the year at this rate... we all thought he was walking into the end of his career

    instead he’s finally found Vernon Adams potential

    Yes. Without a legit #1 QB Montreal wasn't going anywhere. Vernon Adams has been the most hyped ( for potential) in the CFL (except for Manziel) the last 3 years. It looks like he is starting to find his groove. Good for Montreal and for Khari.  Also shows that QB's in this league need time to develop!!!

    why go I get this feeling in the pit of my stomach that Montreal just might be the team to beat?  

    Calgary IS STILL the team to beat. Until I see Dickenson shaking hands with the winning coach in the playoffs or (unlikely) Calgary misses the playoffs, I still say Calgary is on top of the mountain. They will be a better team when BLM comes back.

    we barely beat BC the first time around... it was a close game and real tight still midway thru the 3rd quarter...

    Yes it was close at the half.

    We've got the better team. We:re playing at home. They're playing on a shorter week....still...I hope we don't flub this one and take them lightly. Reilly is getting more time to throw. And we haven't exactly been lighting it up the last 3 games.

    I'd like to see Nichols open up the passing attack and the offense score early and often.

    Someday we won't have Harris as a security blanket

    Someday we won't have Nichols either. 

    In fact, I'm betting that in the last 50 years or so the average # of years for a starting QB is probably pretty low. Brock was here the most - about 8 years. Clements about 4, Dunigan maybe 3, Khari and Glenn about the same. So unless we win the Grey Cup this year, my educated guess is that next year we move with someone else.

    There is no way to predict which Bomber team will show up on Thursday, but we can be assured that the Stamps will play well. Its a bit early to say that this is a must-win game but its pretty darned close to that.

    In some sense it might be a "must-win" game for Nichols. If he poops the bed and the boo birds come out...it could take him 5-6 games to rebound...and by that time our chance at 1st place may be gonzo

    So we've really looked at his physical gifts but is one of Nichols issues that he's not as mentally strong as other QBs. BLM or MR seem extremely confident and inclined to have a **** you attitude if people boo or are critical, while Matt seems to get really defensive and take it personally?

    Nah. I think Nichols biggest problem is his vision. He doesn't "see the field" as some of the great QBs like BLM, Calvillo, and Clements did.  It's weird to say it but having Andrew Harris has been both a blessing and a curse for Nichols. A blessing because he's such a great check-down guy, but a curse in the sense that Nichols has never really learned to find his receivers as much as he should - he relies on Harris to be there for him.

    I fear a first round knock out as well. Even a Western final knockout I think signals time for some changes. QB for sure. Both coordinators. Head coach ... maybe.

    We must finish 1st in the west to have any realistic shot of getting to the Grey Cup. After 5 games i liked our chances. Now...well...this team will have to play better just to make the playoffs...
