Printers has ONE decent game in BC and Lefko thinks Printers is Tom Clements!

Lefko, it was ONE GAME! (And Printers lost it for them with a dumb throw in OT).

Over the long haul, once teams have current tape on him, Printers will show that his skills have diminished.

You ever notice when a player has his first couple of games he looks amazing. Truth is Printers stepped into a known situation with a known offense. Once the other teams get a good read on him he is gonna look pretty average again just like when he was in Hamilton.

We know that the team’s struggles last year were Printers’ fault for two reasons:

1. He’s the only QB to play here in the past 5 years who was not successful given the systems and personnel at his disposal

2. In Hamilton, it’s always the QB’s fault when you lose - there can be no other explanation

Nobody said it was all Printers fault. Just saying he wasnt good in Hamilton. Forcing throws that shouldnt made. Trying to be the hero always. Rubbed a lot of his teammates the wrong way. He was almost as injury prone as Lumsden in Hamilton.

The only difference is Lumsden’s injuries were legit.
Casey seemed to get “injured” when he was having a bad game.

if Printers was still a ti-cat, and the starter, the argos would be saying thank you every much.

Tom Clements...wow that brings back memories....my era

I remember how we ran him out of town...and than out of nothing he became something as a Bomber....

Anyways, it was the RIGHT decision to dumb Printers and his $500M salary...at $150M....mabye keep him...but we have to pay other players...it takes more than 1 to win a game>>>>

Actually, Lefko must have had a SLOW day to write this one....

With the new design at Sportsnet, I don't go there much at all. That's the problem with redesigning web sites, it might look better to the designers but sometimes as the end user, it alienates the end user. Case in point is the new Sportsnet site.

From The Vancouver Sun, Printer's explanation of the last play in Regina on Sunday:

"Honest to God, I didn't see him at all," he said. "My mindset is to allow my guys to make plays. I just threw it up hoping to give him [Simon] a chance."

It was first down at the eight yard-line, in the first overtime "mini-game," down by three points after SSK had scored only a FG on their first series, a BC TD would win the game, a FG would re-tie the game and send it into the second overtime "mini-game," and the former Hamilton Half-Million-Dollar Man ....... "just threw it up hoping!"

There's no question ..... he's a great athlete ...... from the neck down.

Exactly, On that play, he was " hoping" to make a play. When he should have thrown it away. It would have been 2nd and goal, with another shot to win the game. If they don`t make it, they are pretty much guaranteed a field goal to tie the game.
