So how much? I'm imagining you have some insight as to the cost of such a system if you're saying it's "not that much"!

Around the League: 2019 Off Season
trueBlue83 replied to SpeedFlex27's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
bring back Mike Kelly to talk to Nichols about restructuring his contract, a la Stefan LeFors! -
you have to be joking... they said on the pregame show it's because the field wasn't levelled properly and the drainage is poor. In ground heat for 1 game a year MAX.... pretty sure the cost of that would have been a big No right away.

That would be 72 4 yard passes

http://3downnation.com/2018/11/12/looking-lions-long-free-agent-list/ Looks like he's under contract next season.... one guy who isn't though. Oh it would be sweet to bring in Burnham!!

I really hoped Adams was going to have that breakthrough season this year, but it sure seems like he's just not a reliable #1 go to guy. Many have said, get a number 1 and have Adams as your secondary guy and he'd probably produce more, and I think that is pretty bang on. Don't get rid of the guy, because there's talent there. But kind of like when Phil Kessel went to Pittsburgh, I think you just need to take him out of that #1 role and take the pressure off!

there was one play in particular in the second half where they rolled out to throw right, and you saw 3 receivers on the left side, waddle 3 yards and set up blocks. Pretty easy for the defence to figure out whats going on there when none of these guys were moving. At least have a couple of them bolt downfield and stretch the D. Now was that the designed play, or were these guys just dis-engaged knowing the ball wasn't coming their way, who knows!? Was sad to watch either way.

what about the 2nd and short packages where they left Nichols in, where, all season, those have been Streveler downs. And sometimes even leave him in for a couple extra plays afterwards. There was none of that. Playing too safe in my opinion, and trying to let Nichols earn all the glory himself!

he had an interview on TSN radio this afternoon as well.... said 'we played poorly as a team' didn't acknowledge his poor play at all. All about the team performance. True leaders don't mind taking the blame and putting it on themselves. -
by that logic, does that get Lankford another season??

lol... what!? you'll come around when they sign Kevin Glenn as their starting QB!
-
nah, he was fine. was surprised the bar we went to even served him, but he cut himself off after the next one! haha

it was such good popcorn, my buddy felt the need to dive headfirst into the bag!

"Here you are.... one garbage bag of popcorn!"

would have been a nice change of pace and offered a different look than our "elite" starting QB who completed more passes to the sideline than he did to our receivers. Even when he was completing balls, they were in the dirt. Routinely, the recipients were having to go to the ground to make the catches, which kills your YAC opportunity. He can't throw accurately on the run. At least Streveler could have extended plays by giving the receivers more time to get open and taken some shots down field. That simply wasn't happening with Nichols, because at the first sign of trouble, he'd wing it into the stands. But hey, no INTs, so it must have been a successful game!
-
75 through 3 quarters.... how that keeps the confidence of the coaching staff is laughable. 81 yards in the 4th whe LaPo finally started opening the playbook. What bugs me, as O'Shea just stated on the coaches show, is they didnt "open up the packages for Steveler". So, Nichols had to play a little better to earn Streveler some playing time?? Talk about whacked out logic!? What about giving a change a try to see if it opens up the defence!?
-
Does he know how to legally make catches on the sideline? That's the only thing that was helping yesterday!
-
I think a piece or two will probably be gone.... but I would have to think the plan is to start Gray next season!

Oops.... how do you delete posts!??

the more I think about what Nichols said in the post game press conference, the more it bugs me.... he thought he played "a pretty solid game". The guy had 75 yards passing going into the 4th quarter. I think he's delusional and gauges the success of his game on number of turnovers over putting points on the board. Not throwing a pick for a game, he seems to consider a win, regardless of other stats.
-
I didn't want to have to say it, but I'm going to.... we could have won that game yesterday with Kevin Glenn behind centre. Insult me, call me crazy, whatever you want.... at least Glenn is a threat to go downfield. well.... looking at Brandon Zylstra's stats, he's only played 1 game this season with 1 reception. If he got cut, that would be the buy I'd love to see Walters throw some coin at!
-
only point in making this move would be if we have a QB that can get it down field. If they decide to stand pat with Nichols, is a deep threat really necessary? Kind of like a rubber beek on a woodpecker!
