Progress!

I've been asking myself this same thing....I don't think he does in the regular season finale. I think we'd have seen some version of the two QB system in the play offs, not sure what it would look like.

I had actually lost hope, so this is good news. in an ironic twist, I bet a new interface turns more people off, now that they've already gotten used to this site.

I was turning 2 in December of '88. My Daughter will be turning 2 in February.....

Generally, I agree with you. There was one game this year where we took a holding call that I thought was absolute BS, though. As long as they're ignoring it equally, I'm ok. I pretty much don't even look for it anymore because it's a waste of time.

Meh, you beat this drum every year and they keep ending up above us in the standings. I'll believe it when I see it.

And with Nichols in the line-up, we played Lucky. But after a bunch of ineffective weeks with Strev, he was benched. The poster was asking, now that we have a QB who is throwing deep, do we re-insert Lucky into the line-up. No mention or shot against Matty.

Oh, I know. Totally a shot at booch and (apparently) Mr. Dee ......and pj probably.

On defence, I'm hoping we can confuse Evans the way we shook Mitchell in the semi-final. Hopefully it creates some turnovers for us, which I think will be critical. Their offence is too explosive. They're going to out points on the board, we need our D to occasional give our O additional chance to keep pace/get ahead. On offense, we're a different team with Collaros. Lapo needs to stick with what's working though and not force Strev if it's not working.

There are so many unknowns at this point. Earlier this season - a lot of us were thinking that this might be a total tear down of coaching staff if we were one and done in the play offs (the shadow of a HC opening in Toronto also factoring in). I no longer believe that's the case am fairly certain we see MOS signed to a new deal. Lapo will probably look for HC opportunities and could be a big factor. I can't see Nichols following him anywhere if there is interest from the WFC to retain him (he has young children here after all), but maybe Strev follows the guy that has shaped his career thus far. The new OC coming in will have a huge factor in who we re-sign. A Buck Pierce promotion promises the status quo - whereas a Calgary disciple might want to bring on Arbuckle (as an example). Do we want to re-sign Zack? Does he have a strong interest in returning East? Do we have faith in Nichols to stay mostly healthy moving forward? Are posters here suffering from back-up QB syndrome in their evaluations of Macguire? (Hint: You definitely are). I'm really interested to see how the league's coaching staffs sort out in the weeks following Grey Cup. I think that may clear some unknowns up.

Does that correlate to the "home teams" as well. Meaning, even though we're choosing not to wear the home uniforms, we're still the home team. So does the streak hold up?

Waaaayyyyy ahead of you.

Swear word(s).

Really need Evans to start acting like a rookie QB.

Absolutely. I don't know what I would've done if this place didn't exist. Reddit is my only other place and it's not all that active.

They absolutely terrify me.

This is what we all need to be doing. There are a lot of factors going into next season regarding the QB position, and we're going to have a lot of time to list and debate them. For now, let's just be glad that it's still the last week of the football season and we still have football to discuss.

For our shitting on Lapo for pulling Collaros for Strev (justified), we saw him testing out Collaros' arm all through the game. Hamilton definitely isn't going to be facing the same thing as the last couple of times we saw them.

Happy to call myself out for being wrong about Collaros. I didn't think the Riders should have re-signed him this year. I definitely thought he was done when he got hurt again. I definitely didn't think the Argos should trade for him and certainly not us. Then I assumed he wouldn't actually play for us. Well, he did, and had taken us farther than I think we would have gone without him. When he made that one play to Adams against Calgary in his first start, I knew it was an amazing play, also didn't expect to see it again. But he just keeps doing it. I still don't know if I trust his health long term, and I can still see him heading back east in FA, but he sure looks damn good right now.

It did, but you get a disagree reaction for quoting your own post.

Congrats on the grandchild!

Been so confident all week and now I'm a nervous wreck. A win takes us to the Grey Cup people!!!!

lol. So your prediction is that he either starts.....or he doesn't?

He couldn't sign elsewhere anyway, or so we were told.

Lol, silly Lincoln. Trying to get back on topic....
