Time for the short lived Bo experiment to end. A seasoned QB should not be throwing this many interceptions, hell ANY QB, rookie or vet shouldn't be on the field throwing an average of 3 picks per game. Evans got ran out for less. Don't know what's wrong with him and don't care. They have a better chance with the rookie and Shlitz when he gets back than they do with Mitchell. His picks in the 1st 2 games occurred in scoring position and swung momentum away from the Cats. They were lucky to win in Ottawa after 5 picks, The D is starting to shine. the special teams are playing well. All they need is a QB that won't lose the game for them.

12:00 minute mark Stein explains the stupid decision to leave Bo in.

Oh my God.....what bullshit. So it was a planned sneak which means your short yardage quarterback should be out there regardless of what point in the game it is. I also don't believe he would have to give up a safety on the first down as he could have knelt down on the 1-yard line. Tasker saying "Bo should have the ball in his hands during the final plays of the game" is rubbish. The only way Stein can defend this is if he suddenly made Bo Levi Mitchell his short yardage quarterback. Can't wait for the day that Stein is no longer the head coach of this football team.

i'm willing to write off Bo's less than stellar two first games back as slow starts with a new team, first game back after an extended layoff, and a distinct lack of game speed reps...
i'm more pissed off that since there was a 30 minute delay at the gate for the first preseason game I've yet to see Bo play a snap at home...
I'm more pissed off that he was in on a useless QB sneak play in a game that was won*. (if everyone could refrain from pointing at last year's Bills-Vikings game that'd be suuuuuuuuuuuuper)

Utter crock of shit. You knew the defence was coming, so you left your 1st string QB out there to face that. Tasker saying that Bo needed to finish the game out is crap. I do remember thinking they're gonna have to run one straight ahead play before kneeling it out, but never thought in a million years Steinauer would send Mitchell out to do it. The irony, assuming any of this is true is that he didn't trust his backup QBs enough for this one play, now he's got to rely on them to salvage the season.

That was painful to watch, wow and I agree with countfloyd1 that it is a crock of shit. Bo should not have been in the game at that point period, your marquee QB fresh off the 6 game injured list.
I really hope that Powell has a good season for the team.
Honestly I feel like we are all playing the same broken record with this team over and over and over.

Good point about the benches.

Good point about the benches. It is, but unless the owners of five stadiums want to spend millions of dollars on a redesign/rebuild, then we're stuck.
This probably wouldn't have happened if a man-child kept his trap shut.

Why? There's room on both sides of THF and BMO for benches.

Ottawa is not tight and the opposite sideline is totally workable to move one team over to it.

So maybe it's time to make the switch.
