Posted September 1, 20159 yr comment_147510 Yes, that coveted title will be up for grabs, the next couple of games. Riders sweep, we will have lost a series to an 0-9 team, they are only a game behind us, and kick start their new regume. Bombers sweep - they are in the playoff hint, and totally crush the moral of both the Rider team and their fans....which would be kinda fun. In case of a split, this debate will rage on..... I trust that everybody, in the Bomber orgainziation, from Walters, though the coaches and our players...... understands the gravity of the occasion....and also understand that we simply cannot lose this series - period. This team needs to show some spine, the coaches need to provide leadership and further excuses are not to be tolerated....
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147517 I agree. And it will be a Rider mega blow out. But the team will gut out a win in the Banjo Bowl. Just so we can stay "status quo."
September 1, 20159 yr Author comment_147519 The Riders will always be the joke of the league IMO In our hearts....
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147522 At this time the Bombers have nothing to lose. I suggest they pull a Mike O'Shea surprise and come out in the LDC with Marve in a wishbone offence with 3 RB's and run the hell out of the Riders for the entire game, at least that would provide some amusement.
September 1, 20159 yr Author comment_147523 On the coaches show, O'Shea was hinting that Brohm might get the start......that would set the Riders back on their heels......

That would require some imagination... And I think we can all agree, our OC, has none.

Mike O'Shea surprise since he's been coach, can you think of one surprise play that has been tried on offence, or defence? Or any other kind of surprise? Brohm might start? Can he hand off the ball? Run it, over and over again. I don't think the Riders can stop the run. Doesn't matter much anyway. Neither team is going anywhere playoffs wise.
September 1, 20159 yr Author comment_147529 Jordan Yantz would be a better idea......Bob Cameron would be a better idea...
September 1, 20159 yr Author comment_147531 Mind you Brohm is experienced, and we have invested a lot of time in him.......so, .. God, I cannot go further.....
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147532 On the coaches show, O'Shea was hinting that Brohm might get the start......that would set the Riders back on their heels...... I was reading the riders forum and did I read CC got fired for being boneheaded last week? Imagine, getting fired just for that.

I was harkening back to the days of old when O'Shea was a spirited young ST coordinator.
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147538 On the coaches show, O'Shea was hinting that Brohm might get the start......that would set the Riders back on their heels...... So the Rider dbacks will be low to the ground, couple yards in front of the receivers then?
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147546 Reminiscent of the late 90s when both franchises were in shambles on and off the field. At least the players know they will be getting paid now.

September 1, 20159 yr comment_147556 Smith is starting at qb for the Riders Pressure him force the picks Should be an easy win for the blue
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147594 On the coaches show, O'Shea was hinting that Brohm might get the start......that would set the Riders back on their heels...... Serious question, if Brohm does indeed start, realistically, what would he have to do, other than win, to continue on with this team?
September 1, 20159 yr comment_147595 On the coaches show, O'Shea was hinting that Brohm might get the start......that would set the Riders back on their heels...... Buck Pierce would be a better choice and I'm not even kidding! Three years to heal up.

September 1, 20159 yr comment_147597 Secretly bring in Michael Bishop and announce him as the QB and hour before the game. He throws 4 picks but also 3 long tds and we pull out a win.

Serious question, if Brohm does indeed start, realistically, what would he have to do, other than win, to continue on with this team? I don't really care how he does it... if he played well enough to win, he should play again...
September 2, 20159 yr comment_147836 Can Wade Miller play QB? Wade Miller couldn't play at all - except on special teams. I hope Brohm starts. I want to see what he can do with a full week of reps. It looks like Willy is done for the season now so lets see what Brohm can do. Worse case is if he fails we know we got to get a capable backup for next year as we have our starter in Willy. If he does well we know we have a capable veteran backup. Personally, I don't like Brohm's game and I think he's a bigger clown than my avatar - but I hope I'm wrong if he gets the start. I've already alluded to the OP in other threads - Bombers are already the joke of the league though - even though SK is 0 - 9 this year, it's only one year of futility, decades of futility takes a while to overcome. Even if we win both games, it doesn't prove anything if those are the only games we can win. Lose both - get blown out in both - and IMO Walters and O'Shea would be the next two fired... and the merry-go-round starts again
