Fatty Liver Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 According to CJOB Willy is out this week. Adams and Cotton also out. Da'Rel Scott will start in place of Cotton, according to O'Shea.
gbill2004 Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Posted August 11, 2015 What specifically are the injuries?Cotton has a broken arm. Willy is lower body. And he didn't say what was wrong with Adams.

Maybe mildly amused at the speculation.
wpgallday1960 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Anyone who thinks Willy isn't the best thing this team has going for it simply doesn't understand how football works. I don't care who your qbs is when you have that many break downs in protection no qb is going to do any better. Willy is passing the ball like a beast when he has time to actually set his feet. Reading the D well, making good accurate throws and doing everything you need a qb to do. Then there's times when the OL is not just getting beat but not even slowing anyone down and it all falls apart because he's got the DL in his face instantly.Willy gives us a chance to win every game if healthy. Hes not perfect but certainly someone to build aroind. Certain posters have an agenda and wont acknowledge any info to the contrary.
Rod Black Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Sure. Insert Incoherent rambling here Hurgle burgle raba bobo yamu bolish. If I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning.
Tracker Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 We need to pray real hard that it is only one week plus a bye week. Rod Black 1

Fan Boy Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Sure. Insert Incoherent rambling here Hurgle burgle raba bobo yamu bolish. If I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning. Edmonton and Hamilton have hammered the team enough. Whoa this team has been nailed down pretty well. The optomism of the preseason: Yeah Picard will get dirty so Willy doesn't have to take clean hits. The O Line isn't made of feathers anymore it is made of muscle and money. Willy won't get dirty and hard hits every game. Wow those bubbles have popped pretty well. There has to be a way to neutralize a defense that blitzes so much. There should be a way to take advantage of that. There should be lots of open areas for dump off's. That first game seems a long, long time ago now. LeBird 1
voodoochylde Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 @Wpg_BlueBombers Drew Willy out 6-8 weeks with tibial plateau fracture & partial PCL tear in his right knee. Forgive me when I say this ... **** .
iso_55 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 As per Bomber twitter feed. We're done... Drew Willy out 6-8 weeks with tibial plateau fracture & partial PCL tear in his right knee. >> http://t.co/AVFEcbDmky pic.twitter.com/HAHyFfxQDn — Blue Bombers (@Wpg_BlueBombers) August 11, 2015
Mike Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 super glad we invested all that money into such a well oiled offensive line to protect our franchise player. SPuDS 1
TBURGESS Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Kinda what I expected, but I hoped I was wrong. Sucks for us and for Willy.
Rod Black Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 @Wpg_BlueBombers Drew Willy out 6-8 weeks with tibial plateau fracture & partial PCL tear in his right knee. Forgive me when I say this ... **** . So he'll be back for the playoffs and the Grey Cup.
M.O.A.B. Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Good thing we have 3 wins already. We only need to win 3 more games to match our win/loss record last year. Marve time. Max Hall, Joey Elliott, Alex Brink, and Justin Goltz are all waiting by their phone right now. Btw, I would like the Bombers to make a pitch for James Franklin.
Tracker Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 There are a lot of things I would want to say about this but they would all be asterisked out. This has to be laid at the feet of one Michael O'Shea and possibly Marcel Bellefeuille. The decision to leave Willy in when he was doing nothing and when itwas obvious to all that it was out of hand, has to rank as the stupidest move of his tenure here. The probability now is that the season is very much in doubt and if it leads to O'Shea being fired, he will richly deserve it. ******* JohnnyOnTheSpot 1
Blitzy Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 There goes the season. Who knows how many years it'll take before we can field a decent O-Line and protect whoever is in the backfield.
Tracker Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Whoever decided to leave Willy in the game after halftime ought to do the honourable thing and fall on his sword.
iso_55 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Thanks to picking Garrett Wagoner in the CFL Supplemental Draft we don't even have a first round draft pick in 2016 now & we will probably finish second last ahead of the Riders with nothing to show for it. Or the Riders could go on a roll & we could have had the first pick in the CFL draft next spring. What wonderful protection our OL gave Willy the past 2 seasons. The Bombers management & coaches are just a complete cluster****.
TBURGESS Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 The press release says '6 to 8 weeks is the earliest recovery time'. I've got a sinking feeling he's gone for the season. Tracker and Mark F 2
iso_55 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 Whoever decided to leave Willy in the game after halftime ought to do the honourable thing and fall on his sword.We were playing Willy for that huge second half moral victory, dontcha know. JohnnyOnTheSpot 1
Mike Posted August 11, 2015 Report Posted August 11, 2015 I don't blame O'Shea for leaving Willy in. You can't honestly expect to wave the white flag with an entire half of football to go, that makes zero sense and it's a defeatist attitude. That being said, the sooner Marcel is fired, the better. The talent may not be ideal up front, but his offense including the schemes' inability to actually provide even AVERAGE protection for our franchise player is NOT good enough and we need to find a replacement. Period. WestBattleJones, SPuDS, JohnnyOnTheSpot and 6 others 9
