Lol, and returned the money!

Durant=Judas

This is another thing ive been noticing with Nichols too. He HATES getting hit. I mean, all QB's don't like to get hit(except for Reilly it seems) but ive noticed whenever Nichols gets hit he gets up pissed and tends to get yappy with teammates. And like clockwork his play starts to tank. Our o-line has been borderline dominant the last couple years so he's been very lucky and has nothing to complain about. I remember the Hamilton game where we were up by 2 scores and moving the ball with ease, then Larry Dean yanked his face mask and he got beat up in the pocket. Right on cue his game went south and the Tiger Cats roared back. Its not the first time its happened. When he gets hit, he wilts. We all joke about hitting Kevin Glenn early and taking him out of the game. We might have our own KG....

Streveler has that Dunigan vibe in him. When his time comes(hopefully not with another team), itll be fun to watch.

This is exactly the issue. Matt Nichols is not a gunslinger. He is the anti-Mike Reilly. The CFL version of Trent Dilfer, except he doesnt have Jamal Lewis running the ball 30 times a game(even though i love me some Andrew Harris), and he doesnt have the 2000 Baltimore Ravens defense behind him. Farrrrrrrrrrrrrr from it. Based on Nichols' skill set Lapo has designed a run heavy, methodical, ball control offense thats predicated on not turning the ball over and eating the clock. When the game gets 2 or 3 scores away from us, its over. Even if Lapo made in-game adjustments(it sure doesnt appear that he does), Nichols aint gonna drop a 450 yard 4 TD line to rally us from a 31-10 deficit. Its not his game. And with a rusty, slumping Matt Nichols the margin for error is that much smaller. Our only hope is that Nichols wakes the F up and the defense gets their s*** together. Im not holding my breath on that last one.

Its been up there for a few years now. Gonna need a good tug.

A pissed off Stamps team next week and then back to back VS the giant killers. Oh boy. Nichols better dry his eyes and pull up his big boy pants.

Talk about a garbage weekend. We get s*** stomped at home by an eastern team and Sask is about to knock of the 7-0 Stampeders. F*** my football life. There is no God.

Oh now Rod "Fanboy" Pederson is chiming in saying Nichols needs to "toughen up" about getting booed. Saying when it happened to the great Getzlaf he replied "i deserved it"

Is it October 4 yet?

Lapo gets a ton of credit from all over the league. Not sure where it stems from....

We have been hard on the guy tonight but he better elevate his play if he thinks tonight was rough....

My biggest issue with Nichols' whining is its like we owe him something. Yeah sure you try as best you can out there but youve won this city the same thing every other QB has for the last 27 years. Nothing. We pay your 400K salary. When i do a s**tty job at my work my boss tells me. When you do a s**tty job are your work we tell you by booing. Win a playoff game before you whine about respect and what youve done for us.

Tell me that idiot didnt say that....I swear he treats the fans like were freaking 4 years old. Shut the **** up O'Shea.

So many flaws.....

Agreed. It seems like they go in with a game plan and from the get-go it doesnt work so they do absolutely nothing to rectify the situation, just keep throwing the same s*** against the wall hoping it sticks. Whats the definition of insanity again.....?

You think that isnt soon enough? Lol with O'Shea he'll probably give Nichols 3 YEARS to figure it out.

Yup, something has got to change. Easiest fix would be Hall and his "defense"

Vernon Adams'esk

Its still far too early to roll with Streveler, but man, if Nichols is still doing his best Trent Dilfer impersonation and we lose the next 3 (which is very much a possibility) than it might be time to see what he can do.

Man, to get a** spanked like that at home....what a disaster. They finally get over 27000 for a game and proceed to defecate all over the field. Games like this are not going to help the bottom line.

He's had far too many of those during his reign.....

That will be his ultimate downfall. His stubbornness in general and his loyalty when it comes to veterans. Even his lack of NEVER going for 2 unless the game is on the line is ridiculous and plain dumb.

Boo hoo, youre an athlete making 400K. Get used to it or play better.
