If Nichols is coming back then why bother trade for Franklin? Who you going to cut when Nichols is healthy?

I don't want Harris to get hurt just so that Augustine gets a look. I'd much rather we beat up on the Eskimos and have such a commanding lead that in the 3rd quarter they sit him to rest and allow Augustine to get reps at that point.

Does anyone know what the latest ticket count is at?

Ignoring the anthem stuff.. Kaepernick as a player was extremely lazy and it took Harbaugh to get on his ass daily just to get him to study and practice. The guy is nothing but trouble.

For me at work all I am hearing is about Laine possibly being traded and how the NFL game is going to be a bust because of the ticket prices =\

Franklin *could* be a decent pick up that is feasible. I think they would be more aggressive if Nichols was out with a season ending injury. For 6 weeks is it worth wasting a draft pick and Franklin's time?

Don't forget hurting himself on a qb sneak this season... he can't take hits well.

We seem to crap the bed in Saskatchewan frequently maybe the crowd noise does it to the team? Fajardo is decent at throwing 10 yard passes so maybe he eats up our soft zone coverage? I do think even without Jeffcoat the amount of pressure our d-line brings will make the difference in those games.

I think the next three games definitely will go a long way to determining if we win the division. We play so much better at home so it definitely will make a huge difference based on the outcome of out play off chances.

On 1290 this morning Troy and Bauming brought up Darian Durant as an option and eventually Bauming said "He hasn't played in a few years" and made it seem like that was the primary reason on why they wouldn't go with him. Eventually they mentioned the signing bonus + retirement.

Well I'd assume most QB's can throw 5 yard check downs with their non throwing arm so why not?

You could always bit torrent and or stream off a tonne of sites if you have a bit of computer knowledge.

Wow some people go overboard .... I simply was suggesting that Nichols is a guy who cannot take a lot of punishment based on his size.

Line up all the QB's in the league and ask someone off the street to point to which guy in the group is secretly an accountant while the rest are football players... guarantee you Nichols would be picked out each time

I've heard that any Kind Of Dense Idiot could find ways to watching whatever they would like

So no deep hand offs to Demski and a weird formation deep end around in the red zone ?

Bridge would be better then Willy. That being said I'd way rather we bring in anyone else ... I'd rather put Buck in uniform then those two guys.

Have you seen the difference between him and Streveler running and then colliding with the defense. The guy is physically weak. His ability to absorb a shot is the same.

So basically what they did for last game?

He was the best Als qb at that time and got the short end... maybe the Blue can swipe him away to be our 3rd stringer

I'm expecting much more interceptions but if he's pushing the ball down the field and our guys are at least making some of those 50/50 balls then I think we should be fine. It's unfortunate for him that his first game will be against the best defense in the league, it would of been nice if he could shake off the rust against a more crap defense.

Zero chance we bring in someone with zero knowledge of the offense and who has not been staying active. Maybe they bring in Kevin Glenn as a 3rd stringer for veteran presence for the two young guys. No way he would start.

On Offense this year how could I not? The oline has been rock solid, Harris is near perfect, the receivers have been the best it's been in years.... How can I blame anyone else when everyone does their job and the QB ends up holding onto the ball and going down for a sack. The receivers for the most part have not had the dropsies... it's been balls thrown way off target or else QB hanging on to late for the sack. Last game I gave Nichols praise in the first quarter because he took two steps back and tossed the ball out to the receivers to make a play. After the interception (not his fault) he started to play timid and game over for him. If we had an above average QB this offense would dominate and we would be steam rolling teams.

If you're living in the past then why not bring up how Nichols lost his starting job in Edmonton because of poor play? It's an impossible job for any coach to call a play when the QB gets *scared* and hangs onto the ball to long resulting in a sack.

Just give Khari the Coach of the Year award now
