Kyle Walters isn't firing O'Shea so the only change we can hope for is that the 2 Coordinators get the boot. Hopefully that would be enough of a philosophical change needed to put us over the top next year if we gas this season in the playoffs. I mean, what else would they do? Not a lot. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if things remained status quo even if we lose in the playoffs this season with all the coaches returning. I certainly don't get the impression Wade Miller has marched into Walters office & told him that if they lose again then changes will be coming, do you? I sure get the impression this coaching staff isn't under the gun to win.

No, don't agree. Nichols is a better passer than Streveler. He recognizes defenses faster but our offense is based on putting a square peg into a round hole. Run on first down, pass on second. LaPo expects all his qbs to run his offense the same way. There's no designing an offense to suit the players he has. He just expects everyone to play in his system no matter what their strengths or weaknesses are. We saw that today for sure.

But doesn't this show how badly Nichols has been judged by fans? He can only do so much as a qb when his OC calls plays that are predictable & conservative. Especially in the 2nd half when we have a lead. We play not to lose instead of to win. LaPo goes into his shell & opportunities dry up. Making Nichols look bad with unimpressive stats. Matt is a better qb than he is allowed to show under LaPo. We saw it today with Streveler. Compare his stats from the first half to the second. The O just ground to a halt with ultra conservative play calling.
