I think his accuracy is actually a strength.  His mechanics on the deep ball are poor but his mid-range stuff (10-20 yards) is the best we've seen from a Bomber QB since Glenn.  The deep ball is somet

What I do believe, is without Harris and the way our OC calls games, Nichols would have had to be scraped off the field yesterday. The rebound from the hit that Streveler took in the backfield was ver

I think he mostly gives the team a similar opportunity to win as Nichols.  He needs to learn from his mistakes and and think he will.  He was playing against two of the top pass rushes in the league a

Rider fans seem to think he can't throw. Nevermind the 70% completion rate and 2 tds he had on Saturday. Those don't count. 

Frankly...and this is just one guy's opinion...I think his deep ball misses are a by-product of his natural arm strength (he doesn't get much air under the deep balls) and his enthusiasm and adrenaline. He spots a guy, his eyes get wide as saucers and he let's it fly. When he settles in and settles down a bit I think he'll dial in those throws.

Heck, Nichols has years under his belt as a starter and still misses those deep balls sometimes.

I think Chris has tons of upside. He just needs the reps and good coaching.

I think you may be right. there were a few of the deeper throws you could see instantly that he knew he simply missed. The guy is smart, he knows what he does well out there and what he doesn't. Got a lot of time for a physical freak who knows he has to keep improving.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if Nichols signs for $500 000 with Saskatchewan to replace Fajardo next season!    That would be ha-larious....

If I had posted that 4-6 weeks ago I would have received a warning lol.

The 2 to Woli were great throws. One was literally inches too far in front  and the other a few feet. He's throwing them with tight spirals and on target just a bit too far. I know that sounds like a contradiction...but I've seen Matt toss deep balls that were not only too deep but also off target OB. Not slagging Matt...he definitely dialed in some deep balls his last couple of starts.
