Official Game Day Thread - Winnipeg at Hamilton - September 12, 2025

He's tough.  He's probably more mentally hurt.

He should have gone over the top.  He had that TD right there.  He slowed up, too.

Oh well, sums up the game pretty much.

Well, no one doubts that he's tough.

The rest of us wouldn't be walking upstairs to go to bed after his injury last year, much less playing professional football. But it's obviously limited his already limited ability to play the position of QB.

All due respect to Streveler the man and to all he's done for this organization. I want his autograph the first chance I get. But I don't want to see him on the field ever again. In any capacity.

[Sir Blue and Gold]

I just rewatched the Strev tackle in slow mo and he'll be perfectly fine.  There was zero risk to his legs/knee as his legs were free for most of the tackle and I saw no forced strain or legs-under injury.

Plus, he has that brace protecting his bum knee.

What if it's a concussion can your PVR diagnose that?

Well, if Zach is still out next week (which I strongly doubt) then better prep yourself for Strev being the starter...

You really gotta stop self diagnosing on TV.

I definitely think Zach is back.

I will keep holding out hope for T-Will to be the new SY guy, as he's so much better at it.

Yeah but then his post count would drop by a third

He's shooting for all time forum leader.

Where to start the analysis? Horrible game. We lost it in the 1st 2 minutes with the int and it was downhill from there.

Some of us said it before TC that Streveler should not have been re-signed and given the # 2 spot by default. Mind you the other QB's we brought in were not good but blame that on scouting.

Mitchell. He had about 22 yards but he needs to be benched. No where near productive enough with or without Collaros.

Thomas invisible again. No surprise there.

Ayers made an ST tonight. Big deal.

Out coached and it appeared the team gave up shortly into the 2nd half.

I don't know that Collaros will play next week. Our use of 1 game IR is deceiving. Even if he does play we don't have a good group of receivers. Maybe Sterns is back.

Why?  Just want to wait for muh authoritah to lie to us later in the week?

I've watched so many slow-mo CFL injuries that I have a pretty good feel for it.  And I'm entitled to a guess as much as the next guy.

I guarantee you that he did not get his legs rolled up on like the real time shot may have looked like.  Nor any hyper-extension.  Legs looked in normal shape/angle the whole play.

I think he just took a hard hit, flew in the air, and was discombobulated.

But you feel free to wait for WFC to say "upper body / eye".

[GOLDMEMBER]

You and me against the world, Goldie.

You Me and Blink!

I GOTTA keep my numbers up.  Mafia pays me 1c per post!

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Doug Brown: if Zach is not available they should consider a different quarterback for Ottawa.

Hate to break it to you, but the Mafia is done after this season.

Feel free to make guesses.

But obviously we've seen many no contact or incidental contact cause season ending injuries while the most devastating hits seem to do no damage.

We can't tell what's happening internally via the TV. That's why doctors exist.

[Sir Blue and Gold]

O'Shea says he never thought about making a quarterback change once.

Ummm okay.
