I don't buy into the theory that Nichols was inaccurate on long throws historically, but I do buy into the theory that he has been on the dime this season. That's all that really matters. Saying he sucked in the past is like trying to say a lottery winner doesn't have money because they used to be poor. It's an invalid argument. If and when he starts missing deep shots then that argument can resume. Right now he has put that knock on his game to bed. Also, Lapolice called a poor game in the WF last year but it was compounded by some inaccurate throws to receivers and RBs that would have resulted in walk in TDs. Both Nichols and Streveler missed easy home run shots to wide open guys behind coverage in that game.

Labatt was giving away Bomber car window flags a couple years ago.

If only it was that easy....I'd buy 10 flags. lol

I grew up in Fisher Branch. Perhaps. I played against you.

Was disappointed in the Interlake flag. Too many glaring omissions such as Peguis (the largest community in the Interlake) and Fisher Branch, Fisher River. I did order a Northern Manitoba flag for my cottage up North. Wife won't let me get one for the house though...."tacky" she said....grrrrrr

I think what a lot of people don't get is that if Nichols is passing for 350+ yards is probably because they shut Harris down and we are behind by multiple scores. His low yardage is somewhat by design.

I think Wilson will be fine at MLB. He's no Bighill but it's not like Ottawa has Powell anymore.

Are you at Paint Lake? If so, head over to the marina they will have the game on.

Their D is an abomination. The only reason they haven't given up 50+ in both games this year is because they got to face the Riders in one of their games.

Don't feed the troll. At any rate, Regina is renowned for creative attendance numbers. Everyone works in synch in that province to make sure the party line is toed. Right from the President and media on down to the trolls that go to other fan forums and flap their gums to try and alleviate an inferiority complex.

The FACT of the matter is that Regina is a one sport/complete lack of entertainment city. Go on crowing about your 30000 fans, we will enjoy our multiple professional sports options, many large scale event opportunities, and multitude of entertainment options and spread our money around while still pulling in 27-28k. You really think that coming on here and demonstrating how badly you lack options makes US look bad.

I would suspect that Toronto's defence cannot possibly play as poorly as they have the last couple of games. You really think it was your offence that was the kill shot against them? LMAO....The Toronto defence was literally stumbling and bumbling around and didn't even know what their assignments were. You could see them trying to figure it our pre-snap on a ton of their plays. Fajardo took advantage of a defence that was so assignment poor that their were missed coverages on virtually every play. In all honesty, I think we would have hung 70 points on that D. I would imagine by week 5 or 6 they will at least know their playbook.

The Riders get a couple of decent outings against ultra weak defences and think they are world beaters. Fajardo is going to get pasted against the elite of the CFL. Many of his passes are lame ducks that a decent D will pick off. I have a feeling he will be coming back to earth with a crash, not a gentle landing, starting this week. BTW, Ripper....your team is 1-2 this year. Worry about that...not our undefeated QB....because right now you guys are not a contending club.

On just about every Toronto offensive play there was someone in the huddle asking someone else what their assignment on that play is. Watch it on PVR, these guys do not know their playbook yet. Same on defence. I think TO's main problem right now is that the coaching staff does not have them prepared to play. I won't give Saskatchewan a lick of credit for their win yesterday knowing that some of the TO players don't even know their assignments from play to play.

Yep....good summary.

Yes, it is always better to be the WINNER of the game.

No he didn't....and it won't be the last time either. However, I cannot think of a single player EVER that played great football every game.

Man....if you need solace after a win that vaulted us to first place in the division against a previously undefeated team, you are going to be a puddle when we actually lose a game.

I noticed him drawing a ton of double teams last night.

We won despite losing the turnover battle in a big way. That's tough to do as well.

We did the bare minimum needed to secure victory...but at the end of the day we secured the victory. I am actually highly encouraged to see our offence capable of delivering some big plays for a change. It's a Lapo offence, that had an off night grinding but we all know that in 90% of our games we'll be able to do that. The big pay aspect of our offence that was non existent until this year should encourage everyone.

I agree. To be able to win a game like that is a testament to our overall team strength.

I thought our defence played very well against a red hot offence.

You can't say it is luck if you do it virtually every time. Our D is very good at not surrendering majors.
