Congrats to the kid, hopefully Buck helping Crowton as he did with playcalling last year will yield some of the same results.

 

yeah only now they have an actual QB with talent to work with, watching Brink and Elliott last year it was obvious those two guys weren't the answer.  Goltz can run, he can throw, he follows orders (at least that's what the coaches say).  So no more excuses guys.  Get this offence on track, RFN.  You can't use the excuse this week if they suck that BC's defence was too good, after the ****-show they delivered against Toronto its obvious that D isn't as formidable as it was last year.

Good decision.

 

I just wish we had a competition in camp between young qb's (some combo of Brink, Elliott, Goltz, Hall, etc.) for the starting job, with Pierce pencilled in as the #2 right from the start.

This made my day.

Hopefully the fan base does not throw him under the bus if he has a couple bad outings.

Knew it, the "injury" was just a precursor to this.  It makes my drunk ramblings of "We'll never have to see pierce play again!!" after Etienne's second TD a lot more reasonable.

At least ISO can't complain we don't have a quarterback coach. We have an actual quarterback that will be coaching!

I can't believe they actually came out and announced this.... shoulda been done in the offseason but better late than never I guess.

He'll be up in the booth!

"You can't make a kid from Occidental College your #1 QB after being 4th string last year!!! We could all end up in the clinker for this!!!"

We finally got that one foot unstuck from the mud.

 

A move that was seen by most of the fan base and it's coming about.

 

Is this why things have been so quiet on the Western Front?

Look up Reggie Dunlop.  Kids these days.  Noeller started it.

Glad they didn't wait any longer to make this decision.

Awesome...*golf clap*

I heard they're packing up the team and moving them to Florida

Don't tell me you don't get the Slapshot reference.

When Jovon Johnson gets a PI penalty do you think he feels shame?

Da interference...like dis.......da roughing, uh, like dis......den you sit down,  2 minute....feel shame.

Screw you guys.

Palardy: I'm tired of it! Puke! Blah! All the time, puke!
Buck: You're a kicker, you're supposed to be like that.

Pierce: Hey Lulay, your wife is a lesbian

 

Pierce: Hey Lulay, she's a dyke. I know, I know...

 

Pierce: She's a lesbian, a lesbian, a lesbian....

You guys are awesome. Not awesome: A max quota on the number of "likes" I can give. I already have a quota of maximum fucks I can give during a day, but didn't want a maximum number of likes....

Buck: She underlines the **** scenes for ya? If she underlines the **** scenes for ya, she must worship the ground you walk on.
Goltz: They teach you how to underline in college.
Buck: Not the **** scenes, they don't. Goltz, you gotta learn to put out more, you know what I mean?

I have a feeling this is a precursor to a trade happening.

 

We couldn't release Buck Pierce.  We would only have two quarterbacks.  So as of right now he is in a player-coach role for this team.

 

If we are trying to wean this team off of Pierce, what are our options?  We have to get another QB in fast.  So either we sign a free-agent and put them on our practice roster or make a trade.

 

If a trade gets made, Buck would have to be released at that point.  I could see this happening.

I would do like the Eskimos are doing with Kerry Joseph. Keep him as the #3 quarterback and let the other two ahead of him develop.
