Fatty Liver Posted July 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Good to see Cole getting another shot but hope they hold onto Hubbard. Also Haidara must have shown more than Bastien, next up Richards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBlink Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 I think Cole was looking for NFL opportunities and then got hurt? Not exactly sure what his deal was but he's the man opposite Westerman if healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddanger Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Well they gotta do something, but moving around players who aren't even playing isn't going to accomplish anything. I'm expecting some bigger moves in the coming days once the film gets reviewed. And perhaps Nicholls getting a few extra first team reps would be a good start.

Fatty Liver Posted July 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 (edited) Looks like Ryan Smith is injured. Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming Ryan Smith (lower-body) is "probably out for a couple weeks," according to Mike O'Shea. 11:46 AM - 17 Jul 2016 Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming Thomas Mayo, who started Week 2, will play in place of Ryan Smith. #Bombers Edited July 17, 2016 by Throw Long Bannatyne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 That might not be such a bad thing. I like smith n weston, but imo its one or the other, we need more size n speed out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Bomber Fan Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 perhaps the threat to release or bench some actual players might strike a cord with the starters??? Maybe benching a particular QB so he can see someone else do it might benefit him? Not a chance as long as MOS is HC he is too head strong and stubborn.

Goalie Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) Or maybe the released players just aren't very good and they are being released because it's football and that happens. Ppl who think Willy will be released need to pull their heads out of their ass. Go to a practice. Nichols is awful. There's a reason willy plays and Nichols doesn't. Willy is better.

DR. CFL Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Having a QB that is better than one that you say is awful really breeds confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan007 Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 I wonder if a scheme of throwing in QB's for different plays would help out. Like throw in Davis for a possible throw/QB sneak, throw in Nichols for a couple of throws/hand off's, then back to Willy, etc... Mix it up to see if it helps out. It's like their afraid to try something new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
