Look back to history: he has made very few changes. I don't think MOS is going off roster unless we have about 2 or 3 absolute disasters for games. If we are going to be close, or at least not too distant, he will be sticking to what he has got now. That's who he is, what he does. He looks at the 4 QB's he has as professionals. He won't be screaming the sky is falling." That was last night ... now today: “I’m not looking,” O’Shea said. “I imagine (Kyle) is fielding a pile of calls. But we’re pretty happy with what we’ve got.” What would O'Shea be expected to say." We are now into borderline fecal incontinence when we look at our backup quarterback prospects but we have no viable options."? shadybob and DR. CFL 2
DR. CFL Posted June 8, 2018 Report Posted June 8, 2018 Coaches by definition are optimists....you would expect nothing else.....especially when it is for public consumption. Sure it’s fun to play the psychological card in a final when you label yourself as the underdog but certainly not the stategedy you want to use in game 1of 18...even though you look at your QB depth chart and know otherwise.
Jacquie Posted June 8, 2018 Report Posted June 8, 2018 13 hours ago, SpeedFlex27 said: The Stamps were in full denial of the Justin Dunk story early Thursday morning as the story was on every media outlet here. Obviously Rogers agent let it slip out to Dunk he signed but the Stamps weren't ready to confirm yet so they outright denied anything was agreed to or signed. I quoted Dave Rowe from CHQR at 6:57 am Thurs morning saying rumours of Rogers' signing were false based on what he was told from the Stamps. This came from either Mike Petrie or John Hufnagel. Then I listened to The Fan 960 later that morning as well as Q107 both saying the same thing before I went to work..That there was no deal in place & that the 2 sides weren't close to signing. I posted what was being reported to the media being passed on to listeners. Yet, you post that they agreed to terms as opposed to signing a contract for what reason? To make it look like you know better??? Or are more knowledgeable than the rest of us?. And yeah, living in the City where the player signed carries more weigh with what the media says rather than lifting a quote or a tweet off the internet 8 hours later. Things change in 8 hours. I was at work the rest of the day & never heard Rogers signed until after 4 pm yesterday when I went home. I wasn't wrong with what I posted at the time. Dunk’s original tweet and story said they had agreed to terms. We all know that “agreed to terms” is not the same as “signed”. Brandon Blue&Gold 1

Dom Davis has proven to be able to read defense well enough when they are running vanilla pre-season schemes however when the lights come up he really starts to look unsure of himself. Considering me skeptical.
Atomic Posted June 8, 2018 Report Posted June 8, 2018 The Bombers would be in a lot better shape right now if they had kept Davis and never signed Ross or Durant. And I could have told you that without the benefit of hindsight. MOBomberFan, TBURGESS and Jesse 2 1
johnzo Posted June 8, 2018 Report Posted June 8, 2018 man, I really wish I knew what happened to make them give up on Davis in the space of two quarters. I have no idea whether Davis is a legit CFL QB or not, but the Bombers saw something in him for a couple years ... and then, bam, gone after thirty minutes. Mark F and Atomic 1 1

It could well be that Davis just got sick of hanging around with no hope of ever starting in sight and they did him a favour by cutting him. It has to be the bane of all QB's sitting behind an entrenched starter especially under a coach like O'Shea that never shows signs of deviation. I imagine if Foketi or Flanders ever became disgruntled with their backup status they would do them the favour by setting them free.

We had no receiving core last year without Darvin Adams and Weston Dressler in the lineup.
