Why the long face Bigblue ?.... if we needed our QB to run for any reason you wouldn't give the edge to Big Chris

Yes he could have. But catching/not catching Davis, is not the problem with that play.
I was thinking of the future..... like if that happened again but the score was much closer and it really did matter.

He did make an effort. He started running, realized he wasn't going to catch the guy and that was it. He had absolutely zero chance of catching him. Of all the stupid things he did that game, people are complaining about a play in which he had no chance of making a play (besides the throw).
I just caught this play again on wired up tonight......and yes technically you are right, Matt Nichols could not catch Davis at that point. Mostly because Matt can't run that fast to begin with.......... I wonder if Big Chris could have caught him though (?).....

Every qb throws those during the season.
Does anybody keep a stat who shows which QB does it the most ?

My beef is not and has never been with this management. The problems with the team appear to be with the coaching and possibly player recruitment. The point is that a rookie GM and a rookie head coach at the same time taking over a troubled and talent-poor team is pretty much a recipe for struggle.
How long until they are no longer considered rookies ?

Can Adams take the physicality of the slotback position? That's my concern.
It just makes me cringe when a QB throws slightly behind a receiver at this position ....the receiver knows the hit is coming but has to concentrate on catching the ball before protecting themselves...

And yet... cut in camp.
And they had crap for QBs. remember folks, hes had 2 games. DCs now know his tendencies. We've seen many QBs come in and look great for a game or 3.. then splat.
That is why it is going to be interesting to watch Big Chris Streveler the next time he gets a game start...he is approaching that splat or looking real legit time for him....
-
Big Chris I think gives us a very decent chance at winning.
-
Big Chris seems to be able to escape and make a play last longer, he even appears to keep looking down the field while escaping and is still checking all his options before picking one.

You’re bringing up a dead issue. As they say - “drop it.”
If Matt comes out and his first throw is into the turf or overthrown it won't be a dead issue.
-
I heard Matty saying it on the tv during the game.....when they would go short yardage An bring Chris in Matt would go running off the field with his arms up yelling " BIG CHRIS...BIG CHRIS" ..... then Chris would do his thing, I just thought it was cool.

I really can't help but have this nagging feeling he's playing injured, even if assertions are being made to the contrary. Don't feel like QBs just lose their accuracy without being hampered by something.
Maybe it's the film room stuff. Matt gets to see what Chris has done in the game when they are going over film right ? Maybe that is hampering him.
-
Matt starts...if he doesn't perform OSH gives him the hook at the right time.....then BIG CHRIS is called in.....an the riders don't know how to adjust to Big Chris and it gives us enough to win the game........
Or Matt and everyone supports each other and pulls out a win.
Either or I am hoping for.

I also think a split is coming....perhaps during the upcoming bye week we could see a coaching change on defense.
A split would keep things status quo as that equates to a 500 season.....which lots of people seem to be happy accomplishing. Which means nobody gets fired anywhere.

I am waiting to see who is starting before I do my pick ems.

Yes, he would be paid out, but what then? If he returns to the US of A, he would be in real trouble with health care costs.
Same with every American player that gets cut An doesn't may have health issues.

I don't like asking for someone to be fired.
But if Hall is going to be let go, I would like it to be now, so that O'Shea does not have that excuse card to play at the end of the season, justifying O'Shea hanging on for another year or two.
People are actually hoping for an Eastern playoff spot. how pathetic is that?
I would take an eastern playoff spot over no play off spot. But beat the riders twice and we should be fighting for second in the west.

Maybe Matty can't make the pass.
I'm doing my best to take the proclaimed higher road...... I don't know if I am gonna like it though lol
-
Maybe if the Bombers had been playing the long ball game a bit more, all the way back to last season, then Maybe Matty and his receivers would be more in sync on these types of plays (?)
-
I am not questioning any of our receivers at this point yet.........I want to see Streveler get some more meaningful reps and then see if the receivers still appear the same as what some here are suggesting.
-
I have to say to all the people posting about how Nichols is doing lately, and how the coach is handling it etc etc....I have to say you would all be banned from that other site. Jus a friendly warning, especially for those that bounce between the two places.

Would like to bet that our D can hold this Sask offense......to less than 500 yds in offense. Yet my house is staying put.
You should start a poll for guessing the yards against through the air.......or combined yards whichever..... 100-150 150-200 etc etc lol

You do realize Demski was getting a few of those too right?
Rod Black even got it wrong when Demski carried.
