rebusrankin Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 Hypothetically maybe Lapo feels Streveler and his running ability combined with Harris, Augustine and Demski gives the club an offensive look that can really exploit the Eskimos D. wbbfan and Goalie 2
Atomic Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 Streveler is the more talented QB but his inexperience will show. Hopefully we can keep the gameplan simple enough that we avoid the big mistakes. blue_gold_84 and wbbfan 1 1

Either guy makes me nervous....Looks like a coin-flip and cross everything....fingers ...eyes...toes..I only hope we leave whoever starts in for awhile and don't pull on the leash too quick....Whoever follows him up might be on a shorter one...What a predicament ...No choice but to work around it and hope the D comes up BIG(HILL) Mark F, Atomic and wbbfan 3

Three players Mike O’Shea described as either out longer-term or they’re being cautious with — Ian Wild, Kienan LaFrance, and Moe Leggett — are all practicing in some capacity today. Jermarcus Hardrick is also back. blue_gold_84 and Mark F 2

I think we will see some quick changes mid game. streveler with an option package. If we use him as our short yardage option too we could pull out some trick plays. I think we end up with an active 2qb system.

Jermarcus Hardrick is also back. All great news. Wild as a full time teams guy could be a big help, and if Mo can get back to his MOP form our D goes up to maybe the best in the league.
Mr. Perfect Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 Watch Ross take the first team reps tomorrow as a ploy by O'Shea to screw with the Eskimos...only half kidding... wbbfan 1

JuranBoldenRules Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 1 hour ago, sweep the leg said: I'm very skeptical about starting Streveler over Ross. I think their best chance to win is a strong option type offense with Streveler controlling the clock to give the D a chance to win it. None of these QBs are worth a **** as passers yet. blue_gold_84, Goalie and blitzmore 1 2
Captain Blue Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) If Ross is the starter then this would be one hell of a surprise. Streveler has gotten all of the first team reps and the occasional second team ones. Ross has had all second string work. All I can say is that I'm excited. I don't think Streveler would have been my choice, but this is going to be a wild ride. He is going to have a bunch of splash plays - both positive and negative. Edited June 11, 2018 by Captain Blue
BomberBall Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming 32m32 minutes ago #Bombers QB Chris Streveler looks to be the man. Alex Ross running with the 2s. Looking like Winnipeg will be the first @CFL team to start a straight-out-of-college rookie quarterback in Week 1 since... Anthony Calvillo in 1994 for the Las Vegas Posse.

Bubba Zanetti Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 Streveler to start as per MOS Tracker 1

Took Calvillo some time to get to elite in the league. It would be interesting to see how the league has progressed since then. Especially now with most NCAA offenses featuring much more CFL-friendly offenses, that would seem to at least give these new QBs more of a shot at earlier success. I'm not expecting much from Streveler, I just don't think the comparison to Calvillo is relevant. Its a fun footnote though.
do or die Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 The key is not coughing up turnovers for 6, like against the Lions..... SPuDS and Bigblue204 2
