Anyhow, as much of a Willy fan as I am (and I hope he goes to Toronto and becomes an elite QB) this makes us a better team, and that's all that matters! just not when he plays us. Its a very good situation for him. I hope he doesnt come back to haunt us. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iso_55 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) What gets me excited is we'll probably get the third or fourth pick in the CFL Draft next spring along with wherever we finish. That is awesome. Edited September 12, 2016 by iso_55 wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty30 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 I think the Bombers are strong on Defence, but could really benefit from another offensive weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy who played NCAA FCS & has been in front of the media since high school. If he can't handle a few reporters & media personalities in Winnipeg then he has issues. Yeah I don't buy that.

Gives us an experienced backup and a guy who can show Davis and Bennett how you walk back to the sideline with dignity no matter how much you just screwed up. You just can't put a price on that.

Long way between that and "not being able to handle them". Penton is just taking a pot shot at the guy as he heads out of town.

Judd Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Walters better get Nichols on an extension the day the season is over. Chances are he'd be loyal to us, but if he walks to another team this could be a blow up of epic proportions lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomic Posted September 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Here is the quote from Walters re: Willy and the media: “Now, I anticipate Drew going to Toronto and getting under Scott and it almost being like a breath of fresh air for him to be, truth be told, away from this media market and the scrutiny he was under. He took it pretty good in the media negatively and it might be good for him and his family to be in a market where he isn’t under the microscope like he was here.” TBURGESS, Al Bundy, comedygeek and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walters knows this is a huge gamble that could backfire on him so he is trying to make it sound like he did it for Drew. Everyone in the Peg is drunk on this winning streak and have thrown caution to the wind. Reality is gonna bite hard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Catan's Ghost Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 It doesn't hurt to add a player of Heath's calibre when you consider some of the QBs we'll be facing as we head into the playoffs. I agree with the others who say the next move will be for a receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
