August 20, 201312 yr Bob Irving @BobIrvingCJOB2m Looks like max hall is going to get the start vs hamilton ahead of buck pierce I'm a fan. Hall showed me enough to warrant another start, I feel...

August 20, 201312 yr One more loss this week means Buck starts for a team that much closer to not making the playoffs. I want Hall to win but he won't. It's like Nero fiddling while Rome burned. By the time they go back to the veteran, the season will be lost. Even worse, if Hall is "okay", they release Buck the following week and then Hall stinks it up. I dont know...not a fan of the move. Ti-Cats are going to be salivating at Hall's floaters.

Ti-Cats are going to be salivating at Hall's floaters. The season is already lost! They're 1-6, Hamilton is basically uncatchable now after losing 2 games to them, they've fired the CEO, the GM, the OC, the HC is probably not far away from being fired as well... How is the season NOT over already? Oh sure technically they have a chance to put some wins together and get into a playoff position over Montreal, but come on, if they can't even get things going at home against Hamilton what makes you think they can do anything else? Years a write off already because of the decision to stick with Pierce.
August 20, 201312 yr I feel like Buck deserves an opportunity with a legitimate CFL offense (or as close as we are going to get). If he stinks the joint out, ill be the first to admit it. He had one, under LaPolice...still did nothing
August 24, 201312 yr After listening to MB's press conference and tonight's coaches show, I'm pretty confident we see Pierce start this weekend. MB noted that a qb can still be developed at #2 through increased reps in practice, which made me think he was laying the groundwork for Pierce to take back the job. Burke said on his show that he thinks Crowton liked Hall for the job b/c he had the best understanding of the American style offense he was running. That sounds to me like they don't think he's the best fit to run MB's new CFL style offense. Shhhhh.......... it doesn't work that way around here. Don't you know, the only way to develop a QB is for him to take starters reps, wtf does MB know anyways.

Is it possible that his comment referred to Goltz still being able to develop via increased reps in practice? Maybe once he really got to extensively go through 2013 game film, he realized that even all things being equal, Pierce doens't give us the best chance to win.
