  1. Sorry, Hall isn't the guy. He may get another start or two, but it's not going to take long for him to become an interception machine.  His throws are weak and often off target, and he made some piss-poor decisions (yes he made some good ones as well). Not a fan.  

     

    Unfortunately we don't have a qb worth starting at this point. Goltz wins by default I guess, simply because I don't want to see Buck killed on the field.

     

    I have to agree, although he was very accurate on the short routes, his intermediate passes took forever to reach their target and he didn't even attempt a few bombs. Just another weak arm to add to the long list before him.

     

    If you want to develop a QB, be sure the guy has the physical skills first, as those can't be taught.

  2. Being at the game and focusing just on the secondary players, you could see them grabbing and holding on to receivers on almost every play, it was comical after awhile. Most of the penalties occurred well before the pass arrived which made things look worse than they were. Sometimes officials call this, sometimes they don't, consistency would be nice but by rue, they were definitely penalties.

  3. The talent in the secondary and to a lesser extent receiver is my only concern in terms of what Mack brought us. I mean QB is obvious as well but that's been spoken about enough. OL doesn't concern me as much because there does seem to be a direction there with a bunch of young talent.

     

    The thing about the DBs that concerns me is that every other team in the league has slowly (or quickly) gone towards bigger DBs. We have Stewart and Sears but everyone else is below 6 feet and we really haven't brought any bigger DBs in to even take a look. I realize talent trumps all, but Suber and Jovon even at their absolute best were already at a disadvantage. Now they are far from at their best.

     

    The defence is far worse than you think, all you have to do is go back to 2011 when they were playing well and compare that roster to this one. At least half the players on this defence are just not good enough.

     

    Crowton is to blame most of the problems on O but we have the worst receiving corps in the league, when healthy, TE & Watson are it, the rest are backups at best.

  4. Buck hasn't played well this season, I can't deny that at all, but IMO with exception to the Hamilton game Buck hasn't been as bad as people seem to think, again though it's just my opinion.

     

    Yeah nobody seems to bring up the awful max protection offense he endured the first 3 games. The first half of the Argo game was the only shot he's been given outside of it.

  5. you know what, there's something personal between Joe Mack and the media across the country, he took more heat from them than a simple "well he's no good as a GM" I would really like to know what it is. Is it cause he treated them with absolute disdain? Is it because he wasn't part of the old boys club that is the CFL? I really want to know why it seems to personal between the media and Joe Mack (and the Bombers by extension)

     

    imo, his decision to fire Lapo when he did was not popular with other CFL types and thus the media.

  6. I see the same people pumping Goltz on here who were pumping Elliott last season.

     

    Face it, you either know **** about the QB position or you are just Buck haters with clouded judgement.

     

    As for Garrett and the others, too bad we have to make room on the roster for the incoming players who can start to turn the ship around.

  7. so then doesn't it stand to reason that if the 9 year vet is giving us that kind of crap then we should stick with the guy just getting his feet wet starting games and has good potential? That's the real issue here, Goltz going behind Pierce on the depth chart. Pierce is old useless and done. Playing coach or cut are the options that we should be using with him but no, Crowton for god knows what reason wants him at #2. 

     

    No it doesn't, develop on the bench or in practice, games are played to be won, end of story.

  8. Trouble is that Goltz in my eyes did beat out Pierce this year, which is more a statement on just how useless PIerce has been. I think Elliott beat out Pierce last season as well but we all know how that ended. Beating Pierce right now isn't hard, I fully expect that Hall will outperform Pierce this weekend as well just because Pierce has been THAT bad.

     

    Bottom line, win and the job is yours, close losses mean squat, we can get that with Pierce or any number of stiffs like Elliot or Brink.

  9. I have a feeling this wouldn't go over well with the fans..as much as It is plausible. "HENOC HAS BEEN BETRAYED THIS IS A CIRCUS BLAH BLAH"

     

    lol, and if he really, really wants the starting MAC position back.........then he can extend that contract for a few more years, otherwise, we have to start working on his replacement. A little nudge never hurt anyone, nor did some healthy competition.

  10. That is a point, however Pierce has played like garbage all year.  Troy Kopp could beat him out right now.  That's why when I see him whining in the media I just do a Seth and Amy "REALLY?"  Have you seen the game film Buck?  You are just stinking it up like nobody's business out there.

     

    lol, he's not the only one stinking it up...ehm Cauchy...jovon...everyone has taken turns stinking it up but I don't see any of those guys riding pine. Doesn't really matter though, you don't lose your starting role until someone else takes it from you.

  11. This has been a major problem with the team since Mack arrived, players being handed starting roles without having earned them by beating out the incumbent. That is why all teams have a #1 QB until the next guy steps in and takes his job, nobody has taken the #1 job from Pierce and until someone does, he should still be #1. Same goes for every other starting position on the team. It's going to take time to correct the damage done by Mack but it will come.
