Don't know how you can say don't blame LaPo when his decision to take out Nichols resulted in an interception that changed the momentum of the game. You can say what you want about Nichols in the pocket but that was as dumb a coaching decision as I've ever seen. He deliberately took his foot off the gas. Anyone who says that LaPo didn't negatively influence the game with his coaching decisions is wrong.

Ha ha. Brilliant.

That was the most frustrating thing I saw as a Bomber fan in a long time. I have no idea what LaPo is even thinking.

LaPo is LaPo. Nothing is going to change.

We really saw it on display tonite in the second quarter. Our O was pouring it on& he decided to kill it.

Hope you're right. But don't you think it's already stupid to treat Streveler that way if that is the case? I can't see LaPo doing that. It just makes no sense. Streveler goes to the same meetings Nichols does. He watches the same videos Nichols does. Breaks down the same defense Nichols does. Has the same playbook Nichols has. Yes, maybe Streveler has set plays he will run but he is expected to know that playbook cold.

On the pick it looked like it wasn't a designed play but Streveler was freelancing. Yeah, a receiver was open but he had no time to throw the ball.

He looked lost Mike. He didn't look like a confident qb ready to show the CFL he can be a starter at all. Hw many reps would Fajardo in Sask have had going into the season with Collaros the starter before he concussed? Or Arbuckle in Calgary with an entrenched BLM as the starter with a new long term contract. Bo Levi Mitchell demands & gets 90% of the reps with the first team here during practice all week. I'm sure it was the same for Collaros. Yet they both have shown that they can play in this league when they got the chance. For our sake, I hope Streveler bounces back & shows us he can be a viable long term starter if Nichols is out for any length of time.

Streveler should have only got short yardage plays. Then once he gets the first down then pull him out & put Nichols in. No, instead LaPo keeps Streveler in. He panics & he throws a pick. Momentum shot. Question is why? Nichols didn't look lost. Neither did Reilly. They were the starters. There was no reason to do that.

Been saying that all season. LaPo gets cute. Then he gets scared. Then he gets conservative. Nichols was playing well so he did his best to shut him down with playcalling & qb strategies that left a lot to be desired. Taking out Nichols putting in Streveler just killed our momentum.

He may close it even further if Streveler can't grasp the playbook. From what I saw tonite we should be very worried if Nichols is out any length.

That will probably be the most interesting spin on this game anyone will state. Like a grasping at straws spin. He couldn't even do that without screwing up.

Streveler was a major disappointment for me tonight. He looked like a guy who was not ready to play. Nervous & unsure of himself. He didn't know the playbook. Botched a run play with Harris. He made a bad decision to pass on that pick. Throwing off his back foot the ball died & he was unable to put the ball on Woli's inside shoulder on that deep pass. If he plays next week then he has to do much, much better than tonight or we have no chance.

He didn't vanish. The playcalling vanished. Took out Nichols. kept in Streveler who looked clueless. Conservative playcalling. Lost all momentum. We never stick with what's working. Our receivers are being wasted.

I can't see him being back next year. He looks totally disengaged with his team. he talks to no one. Interacts with no one.

Congrats Bombers. You never make it easy/

Man, Claybrooks looks like a fool on that challenge.

Claybrooks went fishing. Shut out.

Your HC sure inspires his players. Duuuuuuuuhhhhhhhh.

Glad the BC BoyZ are happy to be down in the 4th qtr.

Well, if Nichols is out any length of time we'll find out if Streveler can actually play. Or not.

HTH does Streveler not know the play? He's the qb!

There goes Nichols.

Amazing Reilly is still standing up.

BOOM!
