Canadian Politics
Hey now, what a terrible lack of class & good sportsmanship last night when Scheer's concession speech was interrupted 30 seconds in by Trudeau jumping on stage to make his own "I WON" speech. The different political leaders used to let each other speak out of respect for each other & now they can't even do that. That is just how low politics has sunk in Canada. And yeah, Scheer walked out when Singh was still talking but he had already had 20 minutes to say what he needed to say & looked like he was nowhere near finished. However, what Scheer did wasn't right & should have let Singh finish his speech. I've never seen anything like that before.

Bench Streveler Again
I think Harris would have something written in his contract regarding a bonus if he wins the rushing championship.I think he'd be upset if he didn't play & lost the rushing lead.

Terrible news for Dale & his family. My prayers & best wishes are with him at this time.

Bench Streveler Again
Watch, O'Shea starts Streveler even if he's injured. That is how this guy works. If he can walk then he'll play. That is classic O'Shea. You'll hear quotes from him in the media from, "He says he's ready to go so he plays" to "Even injured, he gives us the best chance to win".

Well, I hope Conservatives do form the government again but I have my doubts.

Sure, that's why if you take out that 34 yard TD pass, Streveler finished with 105 yards passing. I haven't written the kid totally off yet. I'd like to see him succeed but I've reached my breaking point with this offense & with this coaching staff. My patience is exhausted. I have no faith at all anymore in O'Shea & especially LaPolice. I was literally screaming at the tv on Saturday out of total frustration at our ineptitude throwing the ball. In the 4th quarter I just threw up my hands in despair & any support I had for that entire coaching staff was gone. Our quarterbacking sucks. They get absolutely no help from Lapo or Pierece. We get locked into one guy because of our head coach & then ride him until he's broken. See Willy. See Nichols. Now see Streveler. Our HC anoints stating qbs & then stubbornly refuses to play anyone else even if sticking with the starter means losing games, entire seasons & getting qbs injured. I want coaching changes. I want what's best for this team & not O'Shea's huge ******* ego. That's what I want. I'll get behind Streveler if I know he's our best option. Right now, we have no idea if he is.

But isn't that how the Libs, Greens & NDP are doing it? Promise the world. Then figure out later how to pay for it after. Suck...errr… voters.... errr… taxpayers.

Some worse than others. The Libs won't cost out theirs. The NDP's would be massive. Someone has to pay for it all. Us.

I'd have patience if I felt Streveler had a realistic chance of developing into a so called star but I don't. Take away his ability to run & there's nothing there. Now, he's getting physically beat up as the number of games pile up & his effectiveness is even less. What gets me excited about a young qb isn't his running ability or toughness but poise in the pocket. as well as being able to make every throw needed. To quickly recognize defenses & coverages & being able to deliver the ball to open receivers. Like we saw with Ricky Ray as a rookie or a young Henry Burris, Trevor Harris & Mike Reilly. And are seeing with Dane Evans. Guys that you know will be great players with more playing time & you can see their level of performance improve over the season along with their level of understanding. That's what gets me excited about young qbs. Right now, I see Chris Streveler as another version of Justin Goltz playing for us now. Goltz, like Streveler was a great short yardage qb but was unable to be a starter.

Don't let that fool you. If the Democrats get in & they enact some of their climate initiatives & other programs their deficits will be much worse. I'm surprised that the American dollar hasn't collapsed under its own weight.

Yeah, right, Colaros hasn't played a down in this offense.

You are so easy to deflect.

Actually no. Streveler is averaging 120 yards per game passing while Nichols averaged 215 yards per game before his injury. Over 18 games that's 1,710 yards more. A significant amount IMO. Our passing game was bad enough with Nichols but has collapsed with Streveler at the helm.

We'll never win a thing with O'Shea. But it's the safe choice. Like, there are absolutely no other coaches that could possibly do better.
-

Well, it may be but I think Streveler's accuracy has a lot to do with it.
-

No, think of the Democrats.

I'm talking qb skill level throwing wise only between Nichols & Streveler. There's no comparison between the 2. Nichols is far superior throwing the ball & he isn't even Top 5. That's how bad Streveler is.
-
GDT: Bombers at Stamps
Nichols is a Maestro compared to Streveler when it comes to passing the ball. Yes, Streveler is that bad.

It would be a disaster if the NDP took power. Spending would be full tilt & federal debt would be out of control. Get used to paying higher taxes to fund the Utopian Society Singh longingly talks about.

To answer your question about throwing to receivers standing still. One it's a zone defense & receivers will find an open area in that zone & "sit" in that open area. The qb will throw to that receiver. It's a planned route based on the zone defense the offense faces. So, it's done all the time. Streveler doesn't have the accuracy or consistency to make throws like BLM does. He can't hit receivers in stride consistently. He can't put the ball into small places accurately. So, LaPo doesn't call those routes. That is why our passing attack with Streveler is so severely crippled that our receivers carry those blue vehicle disability cards.

Osh is a Legend
Coaches are paid to win championships & O'Shea hasn't come close. Regular season wins are nice but it's more than that. A culture of winning is needed as well. Winning is expected because they actually do it. No pretenders. At some point, a lack of post season wins is going to cost O'Shea his job here. Unless he leaves first.

If a HC says sit, you sit. Players don't run the team the coaches do.
