Dee Urban Hermit Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Bishop had a tremendous throwing arm, the receivers would complain about how catching the ball would hurt their hands. Not the smartest QB, but he was fun to watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 I'd take Bishop over Willy. The guy went out & did his best to win. He wasn't scared or shell shocked like Willy. This coaching staff & mgmt has destroyed the guy. Logan007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will have to include some "older guys" if it is since we last won the Grey Cup. Logan007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I said older guys I meant like Ploen and those guys. Not guys like Sammy Garza who gave us the finger when we boo'd him off the field.

Charles Roberts and Milt just went wild that game. http://www.cfl.ca/games/1229/montreal-alouettes-vs-winnipeg-blue-bombers/ Edited July 20, 2016 by kelownabomberfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was our first win in 2005...it shouldn't have been that close to begin with considering we were up by 3 TDs or something like that in the 1st quarter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khari was probably booed in 04 as well. People were running him out of town back then too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khari was definitely booed in his last days here. His bum shoulder that our patchwork O-Line inflicted on him, ensured that there were many lame duck throws in that last year. Those always wake up the boo birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have that game on my PVR (I refuse to delete it) as it is my happy place I go when I need a cheer-up. I watched the first half again last night, and I couldn't believe Drew Willy. He was getting the ball out fast, making his reads, and throwing the ball right on the money. No comparison to the QB we have now. No happy feet, no indecisiveness. If we somehow could get THAT Drew Willy back, we'd have an offence. What a difference two seasons and a terrible pounding behind a bad o-line makes.

I guess the biggest difference I saw in Willy's game in 2014 vs. 2016 is confidence. He was playing with confidence. Now he just looks lost and defeated out there. Too many injuries, too much losing? I don't know, but something has to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, but something has to change. It's clearly confidence. As in he's taken so many hits he doesn't trust his offensive line to give him time so even when he does have time he rushes his throw. So you either throw the guy on the scrap heap (like many want to do) and see him go somewhere else that isn't lacking skill at other positions and rebound then it's "well why did they get rid of him?" or you do what you can to rehab that fragile confidence. johnzo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Confidence is a funny thing have a couple good games in a row and the tough games seem harder to remember. Floyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
