  1. But isn't that how the Libs, Greens & NDP are doing it? Promise the world. Then figure out later how to pay for it after. Suck...errr… voters.... errr… taxpayers.
  2. Some worse than others. The Libs won't cost out theirs. The NDP's would be massive. Someone has to pay for it all. Us.
  3. I'd have patience if I felt Streveler had a realistic chance of developing into a so called star but I don't. Take away his ability to run & there's nothing there. Now, he's getting physically beat up as the number of games pile up & his effectiveness is even less. What gets me excited about a young qb isn't his running ability or toughness but poise in the pocket. as well as being able to make every throw needed. To quickly recognize defenses & coverages & being able to deliver the ball to open receivers. Like we saw with Ricky Ray as a rookie or a young Henry Burris, Trevor Harris & Mike Reilly. And are seeing with Dane Evans. Guys that you know will be great players with more playing time & you can see their level of performance improve over the season along with their level of understanding. That's what gets me excited about young qbs. Right now, I see Chris Streveler as another version of Justin Goltz playing for us now. Goltz, like Streveler was a great short yardage qb but was unable to be a starter.
  4. Don't let that fool you. If the Democrats get in & they enact some of their climate initiatives & other programs their deficits will be much worse. I'm surprised that the American dollar hasn't collapsed under its own weight.
  5. Yeah, right, Colaros hasn't played a down in this offense.
  6. You are so easy to deflect.
  7. Actually no. Streveler is averaging 120 yards per game passing while Nichols averaged 215 yards per game before his injury. Over 18 games that's 1,710 yards more. A significant amount IMO. Our passing game was bad enough with Nichols but has collapsed with Streveler at the helm.
  8. I dunno why are genetics from parents a determination of a son's courage?
  9. Prove me wrong, Dee.
  10. We'll never win a thing with O'Shea. But it's the safe choice. Like, there are absolutely no other coaches that could possibly do better.
  11. Well, it may be but I think Streveler's accuracy has a lot to do with it.
  12. No, think of the Democrats.
  13. I'm talking qb skill level throwing wise only between Nichols & Streveler. There's no comparison between the 2. Nichols is far superior throwing the ball & he isn't even Top 5. That's how bad Streveler is.
  14. Nichols is a Maestro compared to Streveler when it comes to passing the ball. Yes, Streveler is that bad.
  15. It would be a disaster if the NDP took power. Spending would be full tilt & federal debt would be out of control. Get used to paying higher taxes to fund the Utopian Society Singh longingly talks about.
  16. To answer your question about throwing to receivers standing still. One it's a zone defense & receivers will find an open area in that zone & "sit" in that open area. The qb will throw to that receiver. It's a planned route based on the zone defense the offense faces. So, it's done all the time. Streveler doesn't have the accuracy or consistency to make throws like BLM does. He can't hit receivers in stride consistently. He can't put the ball into small places accurately. So, LaPo doesn't call those routes. That is why our passing attack with Streveler is so severely crippled that our receivers carry those blue vehicle disability cards.
  17. Coaches are paid to win championships & O'Shea hasn't come close. Regular season wins are nice but it's more than that. A culture of winning is needed as well. Winning is expected because they actually do it. No pretenders. At some point, a lack of post season wins is going to cost O'Shea his job here. Unless he leaves first.
  18. If a HC says sit, you sit. Players don't run the team the coaches do.
  19. As a running back.
  20. Sick to death of this garbage. He just about killed Streveler last night. Refused to take him out. Should have played McGuire. Crap offense, **** defense. can't win a big game as a HC if his life depended on it. Same old song.
  21. Stats don't lie but they can be manipulated. However, in this case no manipulation can hide the ineptitude of Streveler's throwing the ball. It's apparent we have a qb incapable of throwing the ball with success. But here's a thought. LaPo sucks. We know that. If MOS somehow incredibly is offered a new deal what's the chances of our HC bringing him back? I'd say pretty damned good. And then, hey another year wasted in 2020.
  22. Our receivers aren't garbage. They have talent & if they were in any other offense we'd have a couple of thousand yard receivers. But not with this offense.
  23. He could hit them. I mean, even a broken clock is right twice a day. I think Streveler has a lot of guts & courage. But at the CFL level that isn't enough.
  24. You can't compare Streveler to Mitchell as it isn't even close. I've seen enough of Streveler to know things aren't going to change. He isn't improving throwing the ball. He's played enough now for me to see it ain't happening for the guy. In 13 games, he's thrown for 1,564 yards. That is 120 yards per game & stretched out over 18 games that amounts to 2,166 yards, 11 TDS & 16 INTS in a league where qbs routinely throw for 5,000. We can't win with those passing stats.
  25. Typical MOS. I'm surprised he didn't say he kept Streveler in because it gave the Bombers the best chance to win.
