QB Status - Willy to Start Saturday

[BigBlue]

Anybody know whats going on as of Sundays practice?

[Rich]

Willy was throwing but not practicing. Brohm was taking first team reps and at this point look like he will be starting this weekend.

[Tracker]

From what I understand, Willy was a spectator and remains iffy for the next game. Its looking more and more like Brohm will get the start. The defensive tackle we traded for was present at practice.

[Zontar]

Over here its been reported no Willy, no Moore, no Vega for Sat.

[B-F-F-C]

No Moore?  At this rate we might as well put him on the 6 game and save some salary cap.  Nick Moore is the new Buck Pierce.  

[Noeller]

Moore is a definite no go as is Vega. Renaud back and Wild possible. Also Johnny Sears in for Bruce Johnson, who suffered a heel contusion in the BC game...

[voodoochylde]

Glad to see Sears back in the lineup .. sucks that it has to be in place of Johnson who has been incredibly steady this season ..

[gbill2004]

Willy is definitely out this week.  Brohm gets the start at QB and if he sharts the bed, we might see Marve. 

[Blueandgold]

I'm afraid we have almost no chance of beating anybody sans Ottawa without Willy in the lineup.

[Noeller]

Agreed... We aren't strong enough in other facets of the game to take anyone on.

We don't really know what we have yet with Brohm.  I'll go into the game cautiously optimistic.

I hope you're considering that we could very well be in position to be tied with BC if we manage to pull this game out. Unfortunately, I fear that Brohm is more similar to Mike Quinn or Tee Martin then any competent backup.

Yes I fully understand the importance of the game. But what options do we have? Our starter is injured so the backup starts.

Kevin Glenn would sure look good in Blue and Gold right about now.

Hamilton is coming on and Collaros is proving to be more effective than Willy.

Quinn wasn't a terrible qb though... he just screwed himself over when he tried to be a hero rather than listening to the coaches.

I think we've had enough "what if" threads.

It is not a what if.  These are cold hard facts. Glenn despite the hiccup against Toronto (no shame in losing to Ricky Ray) is more than a servicable back up who was available and Collaros is looking good since his return.  Don't get me wrong I think Willy could be a star once he gets more experience  but the fact is we are facing a hot qb on Saturday and before his injury Willy was cooling off.

[M.O.A.B.]

No Moore?  At this rate we might as well put him on the 6 game and save some salary cap.  Nick Moore is the new Buck Pierce.  

 

The IR class need new classmates.

old timers: Watson, Sears, Stephan, Renaud...

new classmates = Moore and Neufeld

graduated: Pierce

"facts" Willy was still playing fine, but other parts of the team were starting to falter and the level of competition rose in addition to I think a bit of complacence on the Bombers part. Glenn was a non starter, the price was too high when Willy was on board. 

[rebusrankin]

1. Willy has been better than Collaros this season.

2. One year or two years of Glenn is not worth a potential 10-15 years of Gossen.

3. Heck 1-2 years of Glenn is not worth a potential 10 years of Pruneau.

[mbrg]

These are cold hard facts opinions.

If you legitimately think Collaros is a better QB than Drew Willy, I'm sorry but you have no idea what you are watching. Aside from being more mobile there is not one thing he does better than Willy. When you consider how many second and long situations Willy is faced with on a game by game bases (which gives the opposition essentially free reign to tee off on him) it's amazing he's been able to do what he has up to this point. Willy is more accurate, has a stronger arm, is way better at reading a defence, and his mechanics are far and away better than Collaros could ever hope to have.

[pigseye]

I'm actually not as concerned as some about Brohm starting, McManus liked him so he must have something to offer.

[HardCoreBlue]

Willy is definitely out this week.  Brohm gets the start at QB and if he sharts the bed, we might see Marve.

Marve has that 'deer in headlight' look, I hope it's his poker face.

What's wrong with Moore?
