Looks like a fantastic forecast for an asskicking.

Go Blue!

Lost in all this.. Outside of 2 passes.. Nichols had about 70 yards passing on 16 other throws

And your point is?

I know some people need Streveler to get one

And by the skin of their teeth, they get that score

All things considered, it’s pretty amazing that the Argos could have close to 500 yards of offence and the Bombers could score only 11 points in the second half and the Argos still lose by 27. It feels like it will take a series of miracles for them to win a game. 

First of all ...excellent game and we are leaving no doubt we're the team to beat in this league ...BUT I got crucified last game cuz I said our Db's did not look great...Sure we took the foot of the gas for a bit and that's to be expected with a lead we had ...However look at the passing yardage put up by a qb, who is ...let's say...not the greatest qb. in the league....One game this is going to come back and haunt us....For now I'll enjoy the 4 and 0 start

He wasn't very good. 215 yards isnt good.. No matter how u slice it. It means we dont move the ball passing

Nichols was good. Some days the passing yards tell the story. Today is not one of those days.

I don't see it. He had 17 passes for a total of 80 85 yards.. 

That's not good.

It’s the same thing that happened to Streveler against Ottawa that lead some to the conclusion that he played poorly. Both these guys are at the mercy of Lapo. He destroyed any flow in the offence after halftime.

I can't argue with that. You're right Nichols is a piece of **** and should never see the field again.  Long live Streveler and his outstanding stats.  

You're right, I'm wrong and your logic is bang on.

When your returners flip the field for you how do you stack up the passing yards?

While we did have some pressure & I think 3 sacks we didn't get constant pressure on MBT. He was allowed to stand in the pocket  & complete passes downfield. Mostly to Derrel Walker.  Fenner is weak in coverage & combine that with MBT having time (mostly) to throw & the loss of Hecht all made for along night in that secondary.

Who TF said any of that... I was stating a fact... We dont move the ball through the air.. We either hit a deep ball or gain 4 yards.

We didn't have our MLB or Safety. 

I generally like Alexander more than Fenner but I thought Alexander was far weaker than Fenner this game.

Yeah.. But this isnt just today exclusive. This is our O. Big plays or nothing.

The play calling in the 2nd half just can't happen. Not good. 

I can't stand Lapo...but...It's a three possession game at the half. Its bound to happen. The game would not have been called the same way had it been a ten point game. 

Nichols did his job tonight. No problem with how he played.

People are complaining last season because of the dink and dunk offense and we dont stretch the fields. Now we are stretching the field and people are still complaining

Stats are for losers. What matter is the 2 point in the standings.

Many people here previously hated Lapo's dink and dunk offence.  Posters here were saying Nichols can't complete the deep ball.   We're never happy.

This is the first game where I hope he leaves after the season. Never felt that way about him before but c'mon. I'm tired of watching that **** when we have a lead.

However, last year we still sat on the lead. So, there's that.

WE ARE 4 AND 0 MAN. 

Jesus. Enjoy it. 

Nichols has thrown 10 TD to 1 pick. All 3 phases of our team are great. Stop it. Just stop.

Our QB or OC playcalling needs to improve. I will say i think Nichols Streveler whoever can only do so much when our OC decides to go ultra conservative. So i don't know how much is QB and how much is on Lapo

 

Im guessing.. Nichols was great in 1st half so.. Tells me the 2nd half is mostly play calling
