kelownabomberfan Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 Lefevour had me pining for the good old days of Jason Boltus. He was insanely craptastic. blueandgoldguy, SpeedFlex27, SPuDS and 2 others 2 2 1

Floyd Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 We basically have boltus and goltz as our qbs now... lefevour was a hasbeen when we signed him...

Elliott and Brink wouldn't have had success with Calvillo's o-line. Bucks primary limiting factor was allways his mentality. No matter who you surrounded him with he would allways end up hurt, and throwing risky passes. He was a great leader. And a hell of a football player. But a pretty mediocre passer.

As soon as i can figure a way to reprint over the austin apodaca shirts i will begin distributing them. Want in? A new vet back up qb is some thing we need to take a long hard look at in the off season. That said, with our tight cap situation going into the season and still some holes to fill it may be a pipe dream. Either that, or we will need to re tool and move money from some older guys to new players and hope depth can fill the rest. SPuDS and Atomic 1 1
Brandon Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 Why is everyone shocked and surprised? LeFevour will stink up the joint one game and then throw for 300 yards and 3 tds the next. He's always been that kind of guy. Unfortunately for this game he stunk. Bigblue204, Floyd and MC 3
mfranc Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 Man those are two horrible backup quarterbacks. The young guy in Montreal looks better and he is a raw rookie.

Blueandgold Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) I don’t think Davis is that bad, it’s just hard for a backup QB to come in and play with a nonexistent receiving core. None of our receivers yesterday aside from Dressler start on any other team in this league. Edited October 29, 2017 by Blueandgold

Noeller Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 Interesting note from John Hodge in his post game report, saying that Darian Durant's relationship with Lapo would make Winnipeg a good landing spot for him next year, as a sort of Glenn-esque back up.... The Classic 1

Guest J5V Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 When I heard the boos raining down from IGF yesterday I was reminded that this team still hasn't been forgiven for all the disappointing seasons of the last 27 years. Sure back to back 11 win seasons is winning some fans back but performances like those yesterday, at home, just rip the scabs off of old wounds. These fans need someone, anyone, to end their suffering and give them the championship they desire so badly.
blueingreenland Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 I've said it before, I'll say it again...one of the major problems with Dom D yesterday was the play calling. Let the guy use his legs. Roll him out. Matt N has to be a pocket passer cause he can't run. Davis can so let him outside. Lefovour is just terrible...cut him ASAP. Bigblue204 1

Agreed on the inflexible playcalling, but you are going to have to put up with Lefevour for the next two games plus an appropriate period of dithering.
Mark F Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) I don't know anything about Davis, and I'm not saying he's good or bad, but you can't rely expect a qb who has played one or two games total to step in and win a game for you, or even play well immediately. A player that smart/ good would probably be in the NFL. Not sure how many plays he's been in for over the last two seasons, but it would have paid off now, to get him a bit of time in relief of Nichols. CFL.ca 2017 : 29 attempts 17 completions, 208 Yards.

These fans need someone, anyone, to end their suffering and give them the championship they desire so badly. It's hard really to properly thank this post, outside thanking it and expanding like I will. You can really tell who's emotionally invested in this team and have been for the last 3 decades when failures like this do exactly what they did; they rip open old wounds. This team has been a failure like none other since 1990, going on nearly 30 years. In an 8 and 9 team league. So I don't bemoan anyone who goes off the deep end after this team lays another steamer on the carpet. The only thing that fixes this is a championship. Everything else including regular season success is noise.
Floyd Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 Davis' delivery is too slow - he'll become an interception machine... don't see real arm strength either B-F-F-C 1

With the time he has spent on the roster, Davis should have looked better than he did. He looked tentative and intimidated. blue_gold_84 1
Noeller Posted October 30, 2017 Report Posted October 30, 2017 Davis has a rocket arm... We've see it! That's what was so maddening about his performance on Saturday.... We've SEEN that the guy can play well! I dunno what the hell was going on out there... MOBomberFan and SPuDS 2
JCon Posted October 30, 2017 Report Posted October 30, 2017 Please don't cut Lefevour. Just because some of you thought he might be more than a short-yardage QB, that doesn't mean he should be cut. He's done his job well all year. He gets yards+ and holds the ball. Just, dear god, don't let him throw down field any more (across his body, running to his right, throwing into triple(?) coverage). blue_gold_84, Rod Black, SPuDS and 1 other 2 2

He's never been expected to come in & win a game. That is what was expected as the game was close when Nichols was injured.
