According to reports OShea has turned down a couple of contract extension offers already...so many on this board will get their wish (I'm kind of indifferent on the matter - just hope we don't make a bad hire.)

I always bet on the Bombers. However, my hunch is Calgary by a fair bit...followed by this board being lit up by criticism of our OC & DC's "calling a terrible game"!

I am asking an honest question here...but what "far, far worse QB's than Streveler have won Grey Cups"? Can you name 3 please? ( And don't include Kerry Joseph as he won the cup in 2007 and was the league MVP that year). Generally you need a decent QB to win the cup. Our last 2 Grey Cup QB's were Sean Salisbury and Tom Burgess, but they certainly weren't "far, far worse".

They probably realize there is no point in asking O Shea anyways.

As far as the game goes, I don't like our chances in Calgary. It would be nice to at least split the back to back though so at least we'd have a chance at 2nd in West.

Interesting that Collaros is practising. As a "3rd string", will he get any reps?

Uh. Streveler is not the only QB in history whose receivers have dropped the ball...

This. Most reasonable Bomber fans understand that Streveler needs to improve a lot. Will he? I hope so. He's still pretty inexperienced. I'm not convinced that Streveler is our best option to win in the playoffs (i.e. Collaros)....but knowing O Shea it's do or die with Big Chris. It will be an interesting off-season for the Bombers. Will they re-sign Streveler? Nichols? Or go after Masoli?

Joe...a little advice...don't go on a Rider fan site...

Well, they need someone to play out the season there so...

He likely won't be playing till he's 39...,but another 10 years, sure.

Yeah, after posting I realized I sounded kind of negative on a thread that is supposed to be positive...so after saying that, my 3 Stars would be: - Harris - Jefferson - Sayles Go Bombers!!

I counted 6 guys on here who picked Streveler as a star of the game. Sorry. I just don't see it. He is a second year player, one of the most exciting players I have seen for a while, but this game was not star territory for me. I hope he develops into a star in this league, though, and the Bombers should be patient with him. But he had 2 picks. If Nichols had 2 picks, he doesn't get my vote either!! Streveler 15 out of 25 for 174 yards passing. 64 yards running. 1TD throw, 2 picks.

Agreed. If Streveler wants to stay in the CFL I'm not sure a team will gamble on giving him starters $. Calgary -BLM, B.C.- Reilly, Edmonton- Harris, SK- Fajardo, Hamilton - Evans, Montreal- Adams. So Toronto and Ottawa and Winnipeg will vie for Masoli, Arbuckle, Nichols & Streveler (and the leftovers in Toronto that I wouldn't touch).

No truer words have ever been spoken!

Yes he was. The CFL command center is an absolute joke!!

I'm still holding out hope that Collaros can stay healthy and win us a few playoff games...(I'm doubting Streveler can).

My thoughts and prayers are with the Hall family.

I have no idea what O Shea will do will Collaros, but I'd get him in a little game action in the next couple of weeks and play him a fair bit in game 18 ( platooning him with Streveler).

Don't bother. The Riders have the plans for the parade route.

Good move. At least Kyle Walters did SOMETHING.

Did he also scoff at the rumour that he will be fired if the Bombers don't win a playoff game this year?......which likely will happen ( the Bombers not winning a playoff game) if they don't make a QB move!

If they are content with Streveler then the Banjo Bowl was likely our last victory in 2019. I hope I'm wrong.

I'd be nervous about getting Collaros too. The Riders should have never signed him this year and they were absolutely ecstatic when the Argos traded for him. Having said that, can he last 3 games (maybe starting the final game) and 1-3 playoff games??? He's still a better choice than Franklin...

I just saw him at Superstore buying a package of napkins.
