BLM has been remarkably healthy over his career and Dickenson seems reluctant to take him out of any games. I can remember when BLM was pretty equal to Brad Sinopoli in training camp, makes me wonder what would have happened if the nod went to Sinopoli.
I have a lot of empathy for Buckley because DD has never been particularly praise worthy and BLM threw Buckley under the bus at the Grey Cup when BLM himself couldn't get the job done.

Now we know why Buckley and Stanzi have been getting zero playing time, horrible performances by both QB's last evening. If Bo doesn't regain his form the Stamps will be one and done in the Western final. DD's job is to win games, not coddle players, player's job is to step up when given the opportunity, sometimes you only get one, Buckley just had his.
