TBURGESS

I don't see anyone giving up on Streveler. I see the Nichols guys pointing out that Streveler didn't play well cuz it works for their argument that we need to start Nichols.

I'm a big Streveler fan, but he didn't have a good outing last night. I was surprised they didn't give him more reps later on.

Do or Die... In mid-season form.

Smoke was horrible an hour ago. I can now see the apartment building about a mile away and I haven't been able to see that since yesterday. The Stamps/Riders game is a go.

Preseason games are basically practices, but I'm still looking forward to seeing how the new guys perform under the lights. It's been a long time since I got a chance to sit down and watch a football game. The wobbly pops are cooling. The BBQ's been prepared.

No. An import backing up a NI (Or a global if that ever happens), can replace anyone. They aren't a DI. They don't have to play special teams.

You'll argue with me about anything won't you?

The joke ran it's course a while back. More like beating a dead horse now.

If only there were more threads so this kind of stuff wouldn't get lost in a mega-thread.

Strange that the club didn't announce Fokketti's absence. I checked the transactions and he was transferred to injured vet back on May 15. I don't understand why he wasn't suspended for not showing up unless the team is holding a spot for him, should he want to return.

Refused to drink the kool aid? 🤣

My vote is for more threads. Megathreads are OK in the off-season when there isn't much going on, but get in the way once the season starts IMO.

Hope you're right.

Maybe the 1s won't be playing at all in the first game.

Last year. We need to do it again this year because 1 playoff win in 6 or 7 years isn't enough.

They've got to make the playoffs and win a playoff game. If they don't accomplish that, then we really need to look at replacing MOS.

Anyone have any idea if they are just resting Harris and Neuf or if there is some type of injury problem?

I agree with most of if, but Collaros is the worst QB in the west.

Hall had a good season last year. Nichols didn't.

Would we tho? Would Streveler have won less games?

I wrote what I wrote and you read what you wanted to so you could start another useless argument.

Gaiter/Fenner is great competition. Last year Gaiter came out on top.

I chose them just fine. You chose to add additional meaning that wasn't there, so you could argue against a point I wasn't even making. Nichols should play this year cuz he won games in the past? Are you suggesting that Streveler wouldn't have won most of the same games that Nichols did last year? I remember Nichols being a big difference maker in one of his wins last year and a big difference maker in a bad way in two of his losses. Wins are a team stat. I never suggested yanking Nichols or any other vet at the first sign of trouble. Players confidence shouldn't get destroyed because the coach didn't let him play when he isn't playing well. That should motivate him to play better. GTFO about perfection. It's not about perfection. No one is perfect. It's about competition and letting the best players play. If Davis and LeFevour were still the backups, we wouldn't even be having this discussion. Nichols was clearly better than they were, but I don't think he was clearly better than Streveler last year. If Nichols gets back to 2017 form, then he clearly beats Streveler and should get the starting job. If he maintains that level, he should clearly get all the starts until the last game of the season, assuming we don't need the win. If he's at his 2018 level again, he shouldn't get a ton of rope based on past successes, but based on our coaches he will.
