Our defense is great this year and was pretty good last year but in 2016-2017 it was not good at all and it really was Nichols and Harris holding the glue together. Say what you want about the man but without Nichols there is no Grey cup period. Skunk laughs. Thinks what you said is funny even though what you said is true. He gives no credit to Nichols for anything. Edited December 3, 20195 yr by SpeedFlex27

Give nichols the D we saw in this playoffs backing him up he would have won a lot more playoff games. Also calgary this year is not the same as Calgary last year so don't even try and make that comparison. Yup, it was all on the defense I guess. Collaros just watched from the sideline and drank Gatorade, had nothing to do with our success in the playoffs or the GC win! Lol. Your argument is based purely on speculation and what 'might' have happened, mine is based on history and what actually happened ,yet im the one with the stupid argument? Lol. Okay then...

In fairness Nichols did beat Calgary with a whopping 177 yards passing.... against Arbuckle and a massively depleted defense riddled with injuries and while playing at home with nice weather... totally the same as playing against BLM on the road with the defense mostly healthy......

Also I don't care about anything other than football I don't have favourite players unless they're from Winnipeg. Everyone else is replaceable. One aspect is a comparison of concussion histories. I would take ZC over Nichols any day of the week based on play but you have to factor in ZC's concussion history. You seem to be ignoring that and that is extremely short sighted. The problem is that at this stage of his concussions he is extremely prone to getting another one and missing significant time and unlike other injuries that heal over time this never will
December 3, 20195 yr comment_451575 Apparently Ryan Dinwiddie is having his 2nd interview for the Ottawa HC position and BC is interested in speaking with Maas for the open OC job. It looks like the only open HC position is Edmonton and I just can't see Lapo being a strong candidate. Will the board survive if Lapo returns for the 2021 season?

Collaros threw for 193 yards in the WSF. And what "massively depleted" defense...? Take a look at the depth charts. Same secondary, mostly the same front 7. The one major difference is Law played in week 9 but not in the playoffs. https://d3ham790trbkqy.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2016/06/Week9-Cgy.pdf https://d3ham790trbkqy.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2016/06/WSF-Cgy.pdf

Shoulder injuries don't just "go away". You do realize Nichols is coming off a season ending shoulder injury right? 😂

When I hear guys dismiss Collaros's concussion history and then suggest that MN's injury is just as problematic only one word comes to mind. Clueless. I loved what Collaros did for us, I really do, and if he ends ups back here next year I wouldn't shed a tear. However, one has to acknowledge that it would be a massive gamble on our season.

December 3, 20195 yr comment_451594 I love ZC for helping us to a championship but man oh man is he one hit away from being Buck Pierce. He has taken a beating and honestly can’t be counted on to be more than just a small stretch quarterback. Great guy to have as a back up who can win you a game. But you cannot put your eggs all in one basket with this guy.

Clueless YEAH...gotta agree there....nobody in the media and as a fan even knows what it was...and could have been something relatively minor...but season ending none the less with prognosis for full recovery..the fact over the last 3-4 weeks of the year he showed no signs of discomfort as well as it not pinned down or in some kind of immobilization device would lead one to believe it wasn't extensive surgery

That's not a fair comparison though... they have completely differing styles... Buck would just run and not hook slide.. took hits head on (sometimes literally)... watch Zach- he's elusive and dodges on comers as well as slips past them... It's pretty sweet to watch.
December 3, 20195 yr comment_451606 A shoulder is structural with a road map to recovery, markers for functionality, progress, and can be documented. A concussion is still far, far, far more uncertain and every person can be highly different in their recovery. It isn't close. Edited December 3, 20195 yr by Geebrr

You would think D players are going to be ultra aware of Zach's condition and although they might relish the thought of playing villain, I doubt any of them want to be remembered as the guy that ended his career with a dirty head-shot. Except maybe Simoni, he has a strange way of justifying his actions.
