If he can watch a hockey game his head is fine. Watching the puck and the players will tell you right away about the status of your head and whether you have a concussion or not. But like Westwood said on the Big Show this morning, I too will say a little prayer for #33 if he takes the field in Calgary. Get him to his 1000 and get him out. Thats good. Im not sure I'd use watching hockey as the definitive test. Logic tells me a guy that classy eyed and dazed is not well enough to play football a week later. But by the time it really effects him, he'll be long gone from the Bombers so i guess it doesnt really matter...yet. WildPath 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bb1 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Well the Fever put on one of the worst back up performances since Boltus and almost singlehandedly killed our RB and Dressler with ducks...besides that we should start him....?

Noeller Posted October 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 So a couple things..... -Stamps starting virtually everyone important....going to look like a 1st preseason game out there... -Bauming almost certain that The Fever gets the start....

Mr Dee Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Quote Bauming almost certain that The Fever gets the start.... This is a fail. While other teams have tested, or are now testing their #2s, we are floating the prospect that Davis can’t get it done. Must make Davis feel pretty good. This can only mean that Davis will not be back next year. What other reason could there be? We know what LeFeve can do, and still we will trot him out there... I’d really rather see P Nelson if they’re not going to get serious about the QB futures... Mark F, blue_gold_84, bb1 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted October 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 We were at that game, and it was, *ahem*, Marvelous. Weather should be about the same (except much colder -- that day was an afternooner with temps around 0, but this Friday will be at night and closer to -15) so here's hoping they find a way, just like that day!

That was the Walrus. I heard the interview and he was pretty blunt about the Bomber performances in the past five games- specifically about the vulnerability of the team to the Big Gain, and their tendency to give up gobs of real estate and hope for turnovers.

Really both guys would be a lot better off with a heavy mix of veer/spread option type stuff. Limit decisions to few and easy ones, move them away from the rush, get the ball into the hands of some one to make a play as quick and easy as possible or make it them self.

17to85 Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 It has to be Davis who starts, even if he's on a short leash, otherwise you basically just wasted the past 3 seasons with the guy. You make him the #2 qb after investing time in him and not actually give him a start when the starter is down? That's just dumb. Not like Lefevour went in and showed to be any better last week. They both sucked but at least David avoided throwing INTs. SPuDS, aalgernon and MOBomberFan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No kidding eh? Every one is game time decision till the last minute.

They both sucked but at least David avoided throwing INTs. They listed him no 2 despite glenn coming in for him last season too. Both guys have some strong similarities. The big differences being fever is a more polished runner, and has more league experience. While davis has a heavy lack of experience, and a much better arm. I expect they will play to win, and if it gets ugly itll turn into an over glorified pre season game. Tbh if they arent willing to start him in this game Idk why they would bring him back after it. Never been a big fan of the guy, but you know what you have in fever might as well be sure what davis is and know if you have to cut your losses in the off season. Fever is a guy who can be given a limited play book, a few special plays and run the short yardage passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueBlue83 Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 there was an autographed LeFevour jersey on the rack at the Bomber store before the season started... I tucked it away in anticipation of this.... it's probably still there if someone wants to jump on that bandwagon early!

blueingreenland Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) If O Shea actually starts the Fevour over Dom I will be dumbfounded. If O Shea has been one thing he has been consistently stubbornly loyal to his guys. Example 1- last year he continued to play Willy even though every fan and player knew it wasnt working. He played Willy until his job was on the line. Example 2 - he has played Sam Hurl when everyone knows the guy is basically a non-moving object. Loyalty to a FAULT. This year he has always stated that Dom was his 2nd string...and now against all reason it looks like he will start LeFevour. The only stupid reason I can see behind this madness is that O Shea wants to lose as badly as he can to Calgary so we can lull our playoff opposition to sleep!!

blueingreenland Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 And it's not like I expect us to win if Dom Davis starts, it' just that LeFevour may just set a new CFL record for interceptions in one game. Actually, I take that back. LeFevour won't set an interception record since he bounces too many balls off the turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
