The plop offense with Nichols as a starting qb compound weaknesses for this team.

Pressure has built and dissipated this year and last. Expectations are higher then ever which is amplifying pressure. Being a steady play off team is not enough for the fan base any more. 

So if one has to go, who would you can? Out side of the in season issues I believe Nichols is a pending fa and plop could see HC interest continue. Streveler is a fa and will garner interest around the league as well.

Some of the stats quoted above do not compute.  Apparently we have 23 offensive TDs & 25 overall TDs.

We had 2 TDs from special teams last game and the D has at least one pick 6 - what gives? 

25 total TDs was prior to last weeks game... You can now make it 27 total TDs, 23 O, 1D, 3 kick...

Aand still tops in the league 😁😁

RABBLE RABBLE BUT NOT THE LAST 3 GAMES NICHOLS TEH SHITS!!11!

Aannd trending downward.

BUT ....If we score 2 or more offensive touchdowns are we trending back upward?

I would think that if you lead a league in TD's from start..to current point..and continue to do so...you must be in a positive trend???...or am I wrong

Must be. We have three threads going on about how terrible this team is. O, D, QB and Coaching.

We didn't score 2 more offensive TD's so the question doesn't make any sense.

The long term data shows we are currently on top. If we continue the downward trend then we will soon lose the lead.

Makes perfect sense if you read it correctly. If we score 2 more, as in this week score 2 more is the trend upwards.

It would be nice to just score and talk for at least one week about how Matthews had a break out game and how Whitehead was giving the ball in open field to utilize his speed etc....

You're using a 'What if' that didn't happen then saying it makes sense. It doesn't.

FTR: If we scored 2 more TD's, the trend would be upwards. Because we didn't happen, it doesn't matter. It's Moo Point as they say. 😎

And  is it trending upwards.... or is it simply getting back to the level you were at ?.... 

This poll is ridiculous imo.  It's set up to give the appearance that every responder is in favor of getting rid of one of Lapo or Nichols. I would wager that the vast majority of Bomber fans would pick neither if it were an option....but then that doesn't advance anyone's agenda does it.

Honestly, we have a 6-2 team and we have a select few old men yelling at clouds. Fire a coach or QB of a 6-2 team....smoke some more crack.

Are you intentionally being daft or what? It's not about last week, it's about this week. As in if they score a couple td against BC is the trend upward again.

Seriously pay attention.

This week or last week or the week before... it's the same 'argument'. It's a moot point. The only difference is the tense of the statement.

You know you could just admit you read the original comment wrong instead of doubling down on your ignorance.

Or, you could admit that what if's aren't real arguments.

It's not what ifs, it's asking for insight into one's thought process.

It's eerie on how similar TBURGESS and 17to85 are despite having a difference in opinion on the QB.....

'If we' and 'what if' are the same thing. You know that when folks bring up 'what ifs' that aren't Bomber positive.

My god man, have you never watched an episode of Star Trek?  You do not put matter and anti-matter together in the same place ever!

19 offensive touchdowns through the first five games

4 offensive touchdowns during the last three games

Logic says that there have been issues the past few games and people have a reason to express concern. I mean I know that's not how the Internet but still.
