Well that is some dumb ****. 
 

Great, we have a QB whose sole skill is running short yardage. 

Christ. 

What is his success rate throwing into triple coverage at a critical time in a Championship game? 

Not high.

I still haven't watched the replay of that game... after watching the BC debacle, it might not seem so bad anymore 😅.... but I'm sure I recall Brady being available as a check down option with a good 20 yards of space in front of him... that's the part the bugs me the most about it

Yeah, I went to the game so haven't seen on TV ever,

I think Pigrome will be on the active roster of another team very quick. 
 

 

Depending on the injury updates we're going to see some roster activity. We added Prukop and McGee and so far only Pigrome has been deleted. If we get some bodies back there could be additional shuffling from IR to AR and / or to PR.

 

Did we drop anyone from the PR to get McGee back on that roster?

Brady was DEFINITELY the best option....heck even running is probably better he just needed to make one guy miss....and he was locked in on the deep route. Terrible decision...no doubt about it.

He might be....he might not be. You are not concerned at all that a guy brought in to be our SY specialist was unable to do the job a month into the season? Look, I like Pigrome, and he may go onto greener pastures but at the end of the day he could not do the one single task we needed him to do this year.

I am not concerned at all - no. 
 

He looked good in the time he had playing the position - not being a one trick pony/gimmick.

The only playing time he had was on a SY sneak that he failed to execute. Pre-season doesn't mean a thing. Scrubs.,

Piggy was given a single opportunity, how can O'Shea point to that failure so harshly and yet give Stanley Bryant and a bunch of other vets free passes for all the mistakes they made last game, "cause they're great"?

MOS has been seeing him in practice for weeks now.  Must have been something they didn't like or he wasn't willing to take a PR spot.

You’re asking why the greatest tackle in CFL history gets the benefit of the doubt but a rookie doesn’t? Huh

He showed well when he was asked to be a QB - better than Prukop ever has. Pre-season or not.

I don’t care about his one game not executing short yardage - as I already said.

Is this a serious question? sorry let me rephrase that...If that's a serious question. I'm going to have to make fun of you.

against 4th stringers in preseason...Prukop has shown more stating otherwise is ridiculous. I'm not even a big fan of this decision. But that's a ridiculous thing to say.

Prukop  has never shown anything

I'm not comparing Piggy to Bryant at all, I'm trying to point out how hypocritical O'Shea is in his evaluation of personnel.  He gives certain players endless opportunities to play and improve their game while others are cut loose after their first mistake, to say his evaluation process seems arbitrary would be an understatement.

You're making a lot of assumptions. That's it. You don't know why Piggy was let go. You don't know why Prukop was brought back. No one on this forum does.

Go tell that to MOS. lol.

A different standard for the reigning most outstanding OL, a future hall of famer than for a rookie 3rd string QB? Wait, is the sky blue?

DT reporting that Kramdi is practicing in place of Darby - speculating there may be a ratio change somewhere.

I don't. The players he looked good against were all just at Walmart applying for Jobs. I liked him but he's done nothing now in 3 games, no fault of his own but maybe there was a reason he wasn't playing either, maybe he wasn't good at the short stuff vs actual cfl players. As for Bryant? He had 1 bad game in 4 years. 

 

I get we are in the Era where everyone is a political expert, sports expert, submarine expert, I get that but the reality is the guys getting paid to do this stuff, they know more than all the internet experts combined. Piggy was around for 7 weeks, I think that's enough time to evaluate his worth. 

 

Bombers aren't rebuilding but seems like there's always a bunch looking to the future, but the future is now and prukop helps the team win more than piggy does.

If they clamped down on all the speculation that takes place on this forum, there wouldn't be much left.  O'Shea talked for 40 minutes on the Coach's Show last night and said virtually nothing.

the way we work the roster...we prob go with extra canadian starter and let a weak area hemmorage some more...well just cause thats what Osh seems to like to do for some odd reason

Can't disagree you with on this one.

We don't deserve to know everything.  Bottom line really. The coaches show has been the same for 25 years now 

Maybe Hallett over BA? Or Kelly
