July 28, 20186 yr comment_345078 Toronto doesn't want to come back here anymore...…..delivered another shellacking that will last awhile I'd say...heh heh
July 28, 20186 yr comment_345080 I wish I would have screen captured the TSN image they had last night after the win. The jist of it was the Bombers win % was something like .255 or so with all QB's not named Matt Nichols in the last x number of years, and, .655 or something with him starting. It's pretty incredible how this teams regular season success has turned on a dime the moment he became starter.

Many other players were just as instrumental in creating enough wins to become respectable.....

July 28, 20186 yr comment_345130 Nichols got screwed by his defense and coaching in his 2 playoff games here..look at the stats and how each game went..not on him Any semblance of a defense and no coaching brain farts and most likely we are in both west finals and a good chance one of them we prob would have won

I say again that fans like you are indeed clueless. We were 1-2 under Streveler. It's not being rude. It's about you thinking that there are better options out there. Who would you play? Who would you get?? Edited July 28, 20186 yr by SpeedFlex27
July 28, 20186 yr comment_345157 Nichols has been at his very best in the playoffs for this team, to even suggest that he is a problem in the playoffs with as bad as the D was in each of them means you quite likely either have a brain injury or are just dumb.

We were in the qb wilderness for a decade or more. Nichols comes in & we've been winning ever since. Yet to some fans like Northern Skunk it just isn't good enough. Which shows that the level of their understanding for the Bombers is lacking. Blaming Nichols saying we could do better with another qb is absolutely mind boggling. Our defense was the problem & may still be when we start playing western teams again. I'm being nice here because I don't want Northern Skunk to think I'm rude. But he's still clueless. We'd be a 1-6 or 2-5 team without Nichols. I'm glad he's on our side. And I ask again Northern Skunk, who out there as a backup qb & available would be better??? Can't have Ray, Manziel, Harris, Reilly, Masoli, Lulay or Mitchell. They play for other teams. So who? Edited July 28, 20186 yr by SpeedFlex27
July 29, 20186 yr comment_345164 Listen I can understand people not being 100% sold on Nichols, but man alive, you can not possibly look at those playoff games and say that Nichols was a problem. Guy turned in 2 absolutely great performances in both of those semi finals and was let down by the other aspects of the team big time.

I think it's disingenuous to blame those two losses on Matt- we scored 30+ points in each of those games. the fact we can't shut down our opposition to below 30 points is indicative of a defensive breakdown and not an offensive one. You are blinded by your hate for Nichols.
July 29, 20186 yr comment_345201 Imagine his record for us with an above average defense the last 3 years.. dare I say a dominant one
July 29, 20186 yr comment_345207 Matt Nichols is only 24-10 (.705 winning%) as the starting QB for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers since taking over 2 years ago. Let's not forget, we were 1-4 in 2016 before he took over and at that point, 13-28 under MOS and many of us were ready to give MOS the old apple and a road map.
July 29, 20186 yr comment_345228 Can somebody show me where I blamed Nichols for the losses. And I have given Nichols credit for getting to where the team is record wise. .....and I definitly never " hate" players....... .....I hope Matty can get his ring with the blue and gold this year.....and maybe another one after that. ..sorry if I don't drink as much of the Kool-aid as some GO BOMBERS Edited July 29, 20186 yr by NorthernSkunk I spelled kool- aid wrong
July 29, 20186 yr comment_345232 You keep parroting the nonsense about 0 playoff wins while ignoring the fact that of the reasons the bombers haven't won a playoff game Nichols is at the very bottom of the list.
