This guy performs good in practice but sucks in action...The offensive playcalling is horrible......last week they went vertical more, this week they are one deminsional havent test AMOS at all...they havent even hit Geor on his favorite routes...Jarious cant perform constantly week in week out....1st half he used his feet , second half not much of anything...Not all jarious's fault but he is not a number 1 QB....Playcalling could be better....Calgary puts up points because they do good playcalling....BC sucks at it...it all starts with coaching and BC doesnt have it offensively.

Finally going deep stretching the field thats how you will win...Nicholson is having a tough night....he has to wake up and relize he is in the pros. We need another deep threat receiver...maybe raid toronto? They have lots...any notable free agents?

I wonder if the Stamps would part with R. Thelwell? With the season-ending injury to C. Rogers, we definately need more receivers. I guess we have Skillern on the inactive list who we'll probably be seeing next week.

Nicholson lacks the necessary speed to be a wide receiver. Although early in his career his hands appear suspect. He dropped a catchable ball early in the game. Late in the 4th quarter, he finally made his first catch as a pro.

Keep in mind that Nicolson is a backup slotback. He was thrown in at WR because Rodgers was injured and Bret Anderson, who has backed up the WR spot, was dressed but unable to play.
