It really is a moot point but it may have helped Willy get over his struggles. Then again maybe not. IMHO I did not expect the change at QB to have this much effect. Nichols has actually shocked me with his play. He's not tearing up the field or anything but he has played far better and been crazy efficient and he had never really shown that before. Only two TDS but no picks and really, really good execution. Paint me very surprised and pleased.
August 7, 20168 yr comment_214101 I don't think anyone would have predicted that the D would start playing as well as they have since the Edm. game with a decimated secondary, that's the real story. If the O can consistently produce 20-25 points a game they should be in every contest. ST has also played a huge role securing great field position and basically shutting down all returns.
August 7, 20168 yr comment_214103 My question is, who makes the hard decision as to who plays as a full-time starter on this team? I would then ask that person(s) why it took a rash of injuries to get, seemingly, the right personnel on the field to help this team win and why weren't they on the field in the first place?
August 7, 20168 yr comment_214117 I still think we should have beat edmonton at home on july 17th, Â we were up 16-0 (i think) at one point, or maybe 16-3 but we started playing soft D and reilly/bowman/walker picked us apart. I think that 2nd half break down should have been the rise of Nichols at least in the 4th. Â our fate could have been different that game, Â and who knows maybe nichols gets the start vs calgary the following week. Â
August 7, 20168 yr Author comment_214120 Water under the bridge I guess, just happy they are finally realizing the personnel blunders and fielding a team that gives us a chance now. This really reminds me of when Dave Ritchie stubbornly started Kerwin Bell (who was doing nothing) in 2000 until they finally relented and unleashed Khari Jones in a game in Edmonton. Kerwin Bell went to the Argos and the rest is history ...
August 7, 20168 yr comment_214145 Since a change of player personnel has produced such a dramatic difference in our fortunes of late I can't help but wonder if a change of coaching/management personnel might not produce the same sort of change of fortune.

Ironic though that in his darkest moment as a head coach here it was a fortunate spate of injuries to key personnel that might have saved MOS his job.

August 8, 20168 yr comment_214224 Yeah. My brain clearly wasn't functioning very well. I stand corrected.
August 8, 20168 yr comment_214281 I don't think anyone is suggesting that depth is a bad look for MOS. In fact I think everyone knows that. The suggestion, which is perfectly legit, is that MOS had the wrong starters on the field to begin with. Wrong alignments, wrong starters. What's so bad about that? Is anyone here really disputing that Bond and Loffler should have been on the field day 1?Â

Unless you think putting out a complete rookie who still doesn't have all the scheme concepts down pat and a guy who was too injured to play would've been a good idea.

My understanding of that situation is that he wasn't starting because he was an import.Â

My understanding of that situation is that he wasn't starting because he was an import. I think at some point that was the case. And I don't think the move to Loffler/Bond was a choice that was based on anything but injury. But they definitely weren't ready to go week 1.
August 8, 20168 yr comment_214302 If we throw Loffler out to the wolves in Week 1 and gets shredded, all we would hear is that MOS started a green rookie and our depth sucks because we have to start a rookie at S etc. etc. Let the kid grow into the role and take over when ready. I don't think anyone could have expected him to ascend to where he is now at the pace he has, despite being one of the more pro-ready prospects in the draft.
