Don't say that to Aardvark. The Bombers basically hired Bob Wylie on his recommendation and who could forget the hot chocolate debacle of 2015 where his complaint launched an investigation into the hot beverage industry at IGF.

Many years ago when I played, when on the bottom of the pile we were instructed to pick a guy and give him a shot in the nuts. Not enough to hurt him, just enough to get him to lose his temper. Worked like a charm. 1st down only yielded 1 yard, let's run again create a pile and move the ball 15 on the UR penalty the other team would take.

I just do not understand how people can downplay Matt Nichols at this point. All he does for this team is win football games. Yeah it's not pretty and can be boring at times, but that's a Lapo gameplan when you're playing with a lead, which Nichols had more times than not this season. It's because of this thing called Freedom of Expression. Unfortunately, with this gift came an obligation to used it wisely and that is where things start falling apart. While many of the league's QB's did the 300,400 or even 500 yard tricks our little ugly duckling would often not even pass for 200 yards but somehow kept winning games while leading the league in efficiency ratings.

One thing people over look is the fact that Matt was also only averaging About 25 passes a game. Now he completes passes at a 70% rate. That’s about 17-18 completions a game. It’s pretty hard to throw for 250+ or 300+ yards a game when you are only expected to complete 18 passes. I think people over look the game plan that it wasn’t meant for a huge passing game and is based on a strong run game and tons of short throws. blue_gold_84 and Fatty Liver 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
