The entire state line from Thursday was a Nichols special. we probably win that game with 2019 Matty Ice ... but with 2021 wounded Matt I have serious questions. look at how the Ticats were stacking the box and stuffing Brady O until Collaros started hucking it deep. without that deep passing threat, it doesn't happen for us.

The entire state line from Thursday was a Nichols special. Maybe but the offense was different. Buck called deep passes a number of times & Zach just gives another dimension to the offense. Once Oliveira started to gain yards Buck called more run plays as he was getting 4, 5 & 6 yards a pop & more everytime. So, Zach's passing stats were affected. Otherwise he'd have had over 300 yards. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was tearing the league a new ******* in 2019 prior to getting squashed from behind.... 2017 Nichols wins. But I don't think post 2017 Nichols does. 1 minute ago, johnzo said: we probably win that game with 2019 Matty Ice ... but with 2021 Matt I have serious questions. look at how the Ticats were stacking the box until Collaros started hucking it deep. 2019 Nichols was already severely hobbled and his passing was suffering. Especially deep. SpeedFlex27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildPath Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 First week of the season and I am already super frustrated with the CFL music promotion BS. You gotta wonder how much they make to promote horrible acts and get broadcasters to talk about them. Wideleft, TBURGESS and wbbfan 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't how you market to younger people. Here's new music you should like it cus we said so. The refs should crack down on Wilder this is silly. I hate that we've missed out on walker twice WildPath 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Sean Whyte because he’s going to be 12/12 at this rate. johnzo and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eternal optimist Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 Instead of the new name being the Edmonton Elks, they should've changed it to the Edmonton Field Goals. It wouldn't even be that hard to change the second "E" to an "F"! wbbfan and Mark F 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
