November 25, 20195 yr comment_449297 This question is for another day. I just want to enjoy winning the Cup. Who got da Cup? We got da Cup! Who got da Cup? We got da Cup!!
November 25, 20195 yr comment_449336 Strev’s toss was a thing of beauty. Would be great to have him and ZC here all season. I assume ZC wants to go back east but there’s no better situation if You want to win then here.
November 25, 20195 yr comment_449373 Looking at Zach's numbers after four games, I don't see how we couldn't have achieved the exact same result with Nichols. We won with Zach the same way we always have with Matt. No turnovers, scoring off opposing turnovers, great run game and good defense. There were more deep balls, sure, but the blueprint was the same. I guess my point is, Collaros was a great pick up because he was able to come in and give us what we were missing when Nichols went down.

November 25, 20195 yr comment_449399 Zack Collaros final record in Blue and Gold may go down as 4-0 3-0 in the playoffs and 1 Grey Cup. Legend in the City of Winnipeg forever.

Agree...but ZC's ability to scramble away from pressure, was a bonus
November 25, 20195 yr comment_449406 I've always like Matt Nichols play here for the most part. But i'm starting to Think we need to sign Collaros instead of Matt nichols because he has better pocket pressence and can roll out and still throw downfield vs throwing it away. My concern is his ability to stay healthy and whether or not we can Keep Strevler as well for that 1-2 punch. Mcquire will hopefully turn into a lights out QB in the future. But do we go with Masoli, Arcbuckle if given the chance or do you go with who you know you got?

Collaros seemed to move in the pocket a bit better and attack down field more.
November 25, 20195 yr comment_449414 Yeah, I'm well known as a Matt Nichols supporter and I'll go to bat for him all day, but we were saying last night that there were a couple plays where the pocket collapsed and in that situation, Nichols would eat the sack or throw it away, but Collaros was able to navigate the pressure while keeping his eyes downfield the entire time, and then find a target 10-15 yards down. That's not something I'm sure Nichols could or would do...

Between Collaros, Nichols, Streveler and McGuire they've got plenty of in-house options to consider, I don't think they'll bother chasing after Masoli or Arbuckle.

I wouldn't think so either but with all our QBs being free agents they need to consider these things.. the closer they get to Free agency the more worried i will be. Big Chris needs to come back.. he presence and results are part of the identity of the Team.. And i'm Leaning toward collaros vs nichols if they can do that. He appears to be a good fit and regained his stardom that i thought he had lost. To think, they called in Drew, the now limp, willy.. **** that could have been brutal. But if Lapo is gone, the offence could look completely differnt next year. Are there any proven OCs that we can hire?
November 25, 20195 yr comment_449420 Really think that Buck Pierce has earned the opportunity to be the OC if Lapo moves on.

November 25, 20195 yr comment_449422 I'd be more than OK with Buck taking over if need be...he is already heavily involved in creating the game plan...taking input from players and incorporating it into what they do...former QB so he knows the league and has been coaching for what...7 years now?..he's ready...he would most likely call a game more like he played and not as conservative as Lapo..And I'd be fine with that...

November 25, 20195 yr comment_449429 Here's something that just occurred to me. If Zach doesn't come back he won a Grey Cup with the Bombers having never lost a game. Has a QB ever done such a thing before?

That means McGuire goes on the pr. Stalls his development or we lose him totally. Or we go with strev and McGuire and too me that sounds like a scary situation going into the new year.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that you can't go into a CFL season without a veteran QB1....... see: Redblacks, Ottawa

I agree. Though I do like arbuckle, I think calgary may finally move one from BLM and keep arbuckle. That is the most calgary thing to do. Any one know the contract status of MBT? That could be an interesting name in FA, Itd be interesting to see what he could do on a good team.
