It's to get a look at as many players as possible in 'game' situations. Nichols is likely to get the most time IMO. That's more what I see also. If they want to look at some rookie o-linemen, be prepared for some missed assignments. No way you leave Willy in there to get pounded in that situation. I'd consider most of first quarter maybe, buts that's about it.
June 8, 20169 yr comment_199615 I believe O'Shea is on record (possibly on the coaches show) as saying he would give Willy enough reps to get into a rhythm, then pull him... so we may only see a few possessions, or possibly the whole half depending on how things go...

That's how I would normally feel but Willy's been out for 10 months and it's a new system. I think he needs more time to get the timing down.

June 8, 20169 yr comment_199632 Willy gets the first quarter possibly, halfway into the second. Nichols goes in after Willy and finishes the third, and Davis and Bennett split the rest ... Edited June 8, 20169 yr by IC Khari
June 8, 20169 yr comment_199635 We already know what Willy and Nichols can do , make sure we get some decent time for Davis and Bennet we don't want to have a disaster like last year with our 3rd guy... Edited June 8, 20169 yr by bb1

I know I will let you down through out the regular season as I post while pooping in the washroom.
June 8, 20169 yr comment_199650 I like the Bombers. I think they will do good. My favourite player is Jamaal Westerman. The jerseys are nice. I think the Bombers will win the Grey Cup.
June 8, 20169 yr comment_199654 Willy is # one by default unless the unforeseeable happens, so any drama at the pivot position is about who will be number two and who will languish on the PR. I don't think Nichols is a lock, but based on how O'Shea has operated in the past, it wouldn't surprise me.

June 9, 20169 yr comment_199661 Cummings looking real good in the middle, Hubbard is a big guy coming off the edge, looks like he could compliment Westerman, good pressure. Then again...preseason

June 9, 20169 yr comment_199665 Montreal passing game looks a lot better than last year with Carter & Glenn.
June 9, 20169 yr comment_199666 Our d looks like bend but bend right now watching on my phone so hard to tell but Glenn looks great ...
