Starting goalie and QB are the 2 worst jobs in Winnipeg.. You are next to worthless unless you manage to carry the team on your back to a championship..

Poll missing obvs most important option.. None.

What he said. What they said.

Can everyone please stop implying that O'Shea is an ostrich with his head in the sand now? He straight up said "we can't give up they many rushing yards.." Also commented on too many,penalties and on turnovers... So, enough with implying he's either a liar or an idiot..

Oh the irony of out of towners raging against price increases.. Thanks for complaining, now I don't have to..

Faaaaaaar more people have came and stayed then came, got butthurt then left.. No need to verbally martyr yourself (again) on the "be nice to others" topic... Again.

There is very little about you worth respecting, whether I agree with your opinions or not.It's something that is earned, not given. The motto of this forum should be a middle finger. Lol. Wow. Way to be welcoming and all inclusive. Not to sound like an ass but have you followed smokinblues posts.... At all.... This season? nothing but disrespect, condescension and narcissism.. For mike to finally lower himself to that level after a season of this is actually showing some impressive restaint..

Lmao @ edited quote cryfests... I don't believe anyone was malicious in thier editing of posts so let's all step back from the ledge.. Was done to ease readability.. No quotegate folks, i realize the season sucked but come on..

Cuz everything is so black and white, Riiiiiiiight? It all effects each team identically.. no different situations or variables.. The denseness around here is amazing..

Is it not one year with the club option still? 1+1?

Well said... More then doubled the win total... Onward and upward.. Lots (and lots and lots!) of work to do but still progression over last year..

Or he could say that at the end of season press conference.. Wtf is the difference?! Man our fanbase finds the dumbest **** to take umbrage with..

Hopefully he comes back to us next season.... Definitely didn't look out of place..

Willy cost us both of the games here against you guys with terrible game crushing interceptions. My biggest concern with Willy is the fact that he regressed as the season went on. And with a different QB we may not have even been in the game at all. Easy to point the finger when it comes down to one play but it's obviously not that simple. Listen I'm still a Willy fan, but he's still learning how to win. I won't call him a young QB seeing as he's in his late 20's but he's not there yet. The hope is that he can take his play from the first six games this year and elevate it, but that's hardly a certainty. The fact that he got worse and worse as the season went on is what really bothers me. Once again, hopefully with a better supporting cast and with the entire off season to recuperate from the beating he took this year he'll come back and build on what he did earlier this season but we have to be prepared if he comes back next year and plays like he has recently. So disregard the injuries, the drag of a full season on a guy in his first full season as a starter and the 70 sacks...coupled with no rhythm with his oline,receivers and RBs...Regressed yes but it's not like he didn't have reasons to be regressing.. He didn't really have an ideal rookie season as a QB in regards to supporting cast, now did he?

not always. Yards correlate with moving the ball and TOP and all that. As I pointed out, if a team moves into the redzone but opts to run the ball into the endzone then the td-int ratio isn't all that important right? You're just trying to pick and choose what you want to use. Everything needs context. Quite honestly you can assess the qb performance for this team without using any stats. The eye test is still good enough for football. These would be today's standings if teams were placed based on passing yards. West: East: 1. WPG 4,276 1. TOR 4,461 2. BC 4,009 2. HAM 4,422 3. EDM 3,848 3. OTT 3,788 4. CGY 3,660 4. MTL 3,234 5. SSK 3,379 And if they were drafted in accordance with the TD-INT ratio... West: East: 1. CGY +14 1. TOR +13 2. EDM +7 2. HAM +3 3. BC +7 3. MTL 0 4. SSK -1 4. OTT -1 5. WPG -3 To me it seems that the TD-INT ratio paints a much more accurate picture. The only team that is misplaced is Montreal (who have been overachieving this year IMO) How many TDs did we score thru the air versus rushing tho.. Grigsby lead the league in TDs.. If even half of those were passing TDs, we still having this conversation?

and canadian Touché.. Was tired when i posted this. Well damn. That was just mean...

and canadian Touché.. Was tired when i posted this.

We haven't had a QB play in as many games as Willy since 2008 How many other QBs in the league played as many as willy and didn't hit that mark? Exactly. His yards passing is a good stat backed up by where he ranked against the other QBs.. Why are people trying to insinuate it's not?

Reffing has been and continues to be a joke.. It has to be corrected, I realize they are only human but even bringing in reviews has not resolved the biggest problem... Consistency. PI, holding, offsides,neutral zone infractions and even rough play/RTP have all been called differently by different Reffing crews.. A lot like the strike zone in MLB.. it used to be all over the place but has become more consistent in recent years.. I'm pretty sure that's what all of us want... Define the calls, explain to the refs how they should call them and reference a shitload of video on the plays that need to be called... I don't know why this is such an unattainable goal..

Lirim rookie and mop.. Strong runner ups are Denmark, randle and maybe leggett..

I predict this will be Romby's last game of professional football. I've never seen a player play so much and do so little and still get to play so much and still be able to do so little. I have,,,, Yea but our horrific depth forced that hand... What's our excuse for wrongby brycant? Ralph actually served a purpose, albeit a horrible and sad one...

He took two holding penalties but otherwise I thought he was solid. O'Shea said the penalties were a result of him playing RT when he's a natural LT.O'Shea says a lot of things. I don't believe 95% of them.Why? Has he lied to you? Has he lied about anything? Very weird that you question his honesty without any real reason to.. Do you believe anything O'Shea says to the media?Pretty much yup.. I don't see the benefit of him lying... A) he would be caught by our super sluth reporters (well mainly MMB posters lol) and it would be detrimental to his career.. you can tell when he is being coy with an answer designed to not give away anything to opposition.. Why do you assume he's lying when he talks to the media? You think he is a dishonest individual?

Hey hey hey.. Whoa.. Pump the brakes buddy, I've been waaaaaay less of a homer then I was in previous seasons.. I do toe the company line but I've also questioned far more things and argued for the cause far less often then before..

No argument from me ISO. I'd only wanna see marve last week 4th quarter if it was feasible and this week if we are getting blown out or blowing them out... Maaaaaaaybe 4th quarter just because if O'Shea feels it will aid his ability to review his season going into next year... While we would like to win, this is essentially training camp 2015

if you didnt find it different or worthwhile, would you really post as often as you do? Such strange posts around these parts of late..
