Doublezero Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I'm thinking more and more that the team just doesn't have any kind of faith in Brohm at all. They play hard for Willy and they seemed to respond to Marve but when Brohm goes in it's all academic, everyone is playing with their heads up their asses. Once that happens it doesn't really matter how well the qb knows the offence. So the loss is on Brohm? Get real. Willy has yet to score a TD vs Esks in three starts.

Jacquie Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Willy was like 7 for 17 and 81 yards. Numbers, in this case, don't tell the whole story.

Stickem Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Relieved to hear Drew is not seriously injured NOT ahappy with the possibility of Brohm starting next game...Although he wasn't totally to blame for the stinker in Edm. he didn't help and that's what a no 2 is paid to do, you know like the relievers in Mont. Edm. and T.O....I guess we'll see if Brohm can actually stop throwing pics galore or skipping every second pass attempt...We better hope IF he's behind centre.

saskbluefan Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 If we were talking about Drew Willy vs Trevor Harris it would be one thing. But since we are talking about Drew Willy vs Brian Brohm there is nothing to talk about. Does Drew Willy give us our best chance to win? Cmon? Seriously?

Of course, he's a 2nd year starter playing with a fairly weak team and a horrible OC. Drew willy is by far the bombers best chance to win right now. There is no debate on that.

An offensive coordinator who made a Hall of Fame quarterback look washed up while operating under his system .. Calvillo took beating after beating while MB was in Montreal .. people were saying he was done .. long story short the Als dumped Bellefeuille and Calvillo went on to throw for 4600+ yards in each of the next 5 seasons.

I could go on about his shortcomings - taking too long to get the ball away, taking too long between snaps, not establishing any rhythm, NO ability to sustain a drive, not having that critical QB peripheral 6th sense, not having the killer foot-on-their-throat instinct etc ...

From the horror show i watched, Brohm under through receivers on 6 throws and one or two over throws.. Then he also threw into tight double coverages. The loss is not all on him.. But he is for sure a huge factor in why the bombers didn't move the ball and gave up so many points. That and We keep running up the gut when everyone in the stadiums knows where we are going. Willy looked to be accurate on his throws and the balls were bouncing off the recievers hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you may be 100% correct on your assesment of willy here, alot of that killer instinct, getting in a rythm, and sustaining drives thing has to do with the PLay calling. If MB is calling a horrible game and is very predicitable, lulay, harris, et all aren't going to fair a whole lot better. willy hasn't been all aces, but to me, the play calling has been suspect so far this year.

I agree with the premise that Willy is slightly overrated, but Brohm was absolutely one of, if not THE main reason for that loss. The score was 4-3 when he got into the game, at which point he put the team into a huge hole by throwing two interceptions. He had a yards-per-attempt of only 3.7 to Willy's 4.8 despite playing in better conditions. Willy at least kept the team in the game by virtue of committing zero turnovers.

rebusrankin Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 1. I am glad Willy is not seriously hurt. 2. Brohm can't cut it as a pro QB. 10 Interceptions as a pro versus 0 TD Passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBURGESS Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I think Willy's overrated and he's above criticism on these forums but... He's definitely our best QB by a country mile right now. Brohm shouldn't even have a job with us. Marve, who I like, hasn't got enough experience to even be in the conversation to be compared to Willy. Change out OC's (Been saying that since we kept MB during the coaching purge) and we'd probably see a better Willy than we do now.

Mr Dee Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Willy's stats on Saturday did include a couple of throws that were deliberately thrown out of bounds. I believe there's progress in that alone, because last year, he just didn't seem to recognize that. blitzmore and Yourface 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once that happens it doesn't really matter how well the qb knows the offence. So the loss is on Brohm? Get real. Willy has yet to score a TD vs Esks in three starts. Where did I say that the loss was on Brohm? All I said was that the team plays with their heads up their asses when he's in the game. Case in point the one interception that should have been a first down catch but got volleyed up and picked up. Or how about the defence collapsing as soon as Willy got hurt in Edmonton and against Hamilton? The reason they lost is pretty simple, they got outplayed badly when the rain stopped. I didn't assign blame to anyone, you made that assumption, all I said was the team deflates like a popped balloon when Willy goes down and Brohm comes in and even the players admit that it happens.
