rebusrankin Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 This sucks. Would love for it to be Franklin or Ray. Suspect Adams.
Bubba Zanetti Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 Why cant we have nice things? Well atleast our hockey team didn't lose 4 straight to an expansion team........Wait a minute........
Bubba Zanetti Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 Could this be Matt Nichols' Wally Pipp moment??
Booch Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 Hell no to Bridge....he couldn't run an offence like we have...he's just a duck and chucker...I'd rather go with Strevler....let him learn rial by fire..sometimes thats the best way to do it BigBlueFanatic, Mark F, Sard and 3 others 6
blue_gold_84 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 BigBlueFanatic, Bubba Zanetti and Tracker 3
Super Duper Negatron Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 Weeeeeeeeeeee! *sigh* The curse of Troy Westwood lives.
Jpan85 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 If its a season ending injury would create 400k in cap room.

It might take Ekakitie plus Wolitarsky or Petermann to pry Adams loose but I'd rather give up hit or miss draft picks.
do or die Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 Nichols hurt.....throwing up my gin.. Floyd 1

I wouldn't trade anything for a guy who's proven to not be good enough. At least not now. We should thorougly test Steveler, Ross, and Bennett first. Mark F and Goalie 2
Jpan85 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 We are going to get no definitive answers till the first practice next week. Goalie 1

lyin' guy Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 If this injury is bad it will be a shame. I like the guy, I think he can play and the league needs it's best players on the field. MC 1
Booch Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) I wouldn't trade anything for anyone period...there's nobody out there with any upside greater than what we have in house....and really so what about no cfl game experience....I guess you will get it on the fly and rely on your coaches and talent around you and don't try and be a hero....season is far from lost if Nichols is down for significant time...or all year. We are strong everywhere else this year it appears, and we just need our QB to manage the game...worst case I see it...we battle for the crossover.... Also if a tear...and depending on the severity...you could still conceivably play with a brace..been done too many times to mention...

I envy your optimism and sure as hell hope that Streveler (or Ross or whoever takes snaps) succeeds but we aren't that far removed from going through this when Willy went down before Nichols showed up and the results were awful. Overall our team is way better than it was a few years ago but I'm holding out hope that Nichols isn't out long term as this is a QB driven league.
Goalie Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 I'd give Streveler a shot. Adams? No Thanks. However, if you could get Franklin id consider it.

Considering he was half to walk somewhat I don't think its a season-ending injury. It will be a good opportunity for the team to instill a dominant defense that wins games mentality early on in the season.
Goalie Posted June 6, 2018 Report Posted June 6, 2018 All of this also depends on the severity of the injury. Couple weeks? Go with Streveler.. Season? You almost have to make a move.
