Brandon Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Why is anyone surprised that LeFevour is starting? Davis has what 1 start in his career? LeFevour has much more and has had way more success in the league to date compared to Davis. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sample size is still way too small, so it's anyone's guess if he'll ever be the go-to when Nichols can't. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue_gold_84 Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Great news re: Flanders. His return really ought to help the offense. Bad news re: Briggs. He's a damn solid STer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Edm is currently on a 4-game win streak... 17 hours ago, ddanger said: A friend of mine works at the arena, and Harris was there on Sunday night watching the Jets Philly game. If he can watch a hockey game his head is fine. Watching the puck and the players will tell you right away about the status of your head and whether you have a concussion or not. But like Westwood said on the Big Show this morning, I too will say a little prayer for #33 if he takes the field in Calgary. Get him to his 1000 and get him out. I think being around the noise of the arena would be a better indicator of how is head is doing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think enough people appreciate how valuable Flanders is in this offense... everyone keeps mentioning losing Adams (which is obviously huge too)... but I think our offense runs best around Adams, Flanders and Harris, with Dressler as the 4th option...

Noeller Posted November 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Flanders is definitely going to help open things up out there, for both Dressler and Harris...might even help out some of the others, like Denmark...

SPuDS Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 11 hours ago, blueingreenland said: If O Shea actually starts the Fevour over Dom I will be dumbfounded. If O Shea has been one thing he has been consistently stubbornly loyal to his guys. Example 1- last year he continued to play Willy even though every fan and player knew it wasnt working. He played Willy until his job was on the line. Example 2 - he has played Sam Hurl when everyone knows the guy is basically a non-moving object. Loyalty to a FAULT. This year he has always stated that Dom was his 2nd string...and now against all reason it looks like he will start LeFevour. The only stupid reason I can see behind this madness is that O Shea wants to lose as badly as he can to Calgary so we can lull our playoff opposition to sleep!! How in any way, shape or form can we deduce that Lefevor is his "guy"? JCon and Atomic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Davis looked uncomfortable, then The Fever looked incompetent. I don't understand the why they're starting him. There's plenty of tape to show that The Fever is a great short-yardage guy but that's it. 17to85, SPuDS and B-F-F-C 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Just cuz LeFevour's starting doesn't mean he's finishing. I still expect to see Davis for at least part of the game. SPuDS, blue_gold_84 and Noeller 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBlink Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Davis has been our #2 guy, taking more reps throughout the year. We need a playoff #2 guy and I guess they figure that LeFevour has a higher upside for playoff performance. I guess that makes sense.

Fevor has the experience and is more "CFL ready" then Davis showed last week.. which is a shame, I'd hoped his development would have been further along.

I think people are underestimating how badly this regime wants to host a home playoff game. If they feel LeFevour is their best option (besides Nichols)... right now, today...they'll go with him.

AKAChip Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 MOS’ loyalties are confusing to me. Davis may not be great or even good but we really can’t know yet. Lefevour is what he is. And what he is is terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Lapo giving Fevor his nod of approval, as we do know O'shea defers to his co-ordinators.. couldn't be that we don't see what they see.. we are much more able to evaluate QB talent and skills from our couches and seats at the game.

Bomberfan85 Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 I agree that LeFevour didn't look good. However, he has at least shown something at some point. The stat line for Davis from the last game is a bit deceptive too. It doesn't look too bad because there is no official "Stood there, looked confused, and got sacked" category. I think starting LeFevour is the right call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
