Captain Blue

I really don't see this. One of Osh's biggest strengths is seeing what the best version of a player could be. When I first saw Kramdi I wondered what he was doing on the field, but Osh saw what he could be and then he ended up fulfilling that potential.

Not sure what anyone else could want from a press conference. No head coach is going to publicly skewer players or coaches and they aren't going to talk about contracts. He acknowledged this year wasn't good enough and that the standard remains high. A pretty easy answer but also one every coach will give.

This guy has been in the job less than a year and already deserves the title of worst commish. I really don't trust him at all to make the league better. In fact I worry he will kill it eventually.

Impressive win by Sask. I thought Montreal would be a lot better but they were just disappointing. Winning Grey Cups is hard. There is a lot of love for Jason Mass in this thread and he is absolutely a darn good coach. But he's got one Cup win and just dressed a QB with a hamstring held together with chewing gum.

I know it's fun to think a new coach behind door number two may turn out to be a new superstar coach, but in this case you're hoping that that guy could someday wind up as good as Osh. Good coaches with a proven track record would generally seem a better bet than a new hire. Also to sit here in November and speak so confidently in the roster or staff is something neither of us could possibly know.

This is something that I think is overlooked overall. The best way to win Grey Cups is to be good consistently. That means consistent playoff appearances and good or great spots in them. The Bombers during the Cup drought had the occasional really good or great time. They just never had a sustained run of success, so all it took was bad kicks or bad luck and we were screwed. Then back to the CFL basement eventually. Rinse and repeat. If we are continually really good under Osh (which we have), we will be competing for Cups. That's a pretty darn good deal.

Osh is 7th among all time winning head coaches. Seventh. To bet that the Bombers could find a better head coach then him would require an all time stroke of luck. There is definitely an argument to say his time has or will need to come to an end. I personally thought he was going to Toronto. I am mostly just pointing out that he is not nearly as stupid as some here would have you believe.

Great news in my opinion. The guy has his flaws and I certainly hope we see some changes but he is quite literally one of the best Bomber coaches of all time. Perhaps the best when you consider for era adjustments. Trying to replace an all time great almost never goes well. Very happy to see him stay here and try and right the ship. There is still a reason he was so coveted by others.

Osh has his faults but there is not an available candidate I would take over him. Any fan of this team knows how hard it is to find a good head coach. I would I guess go with Jordan Younger. He has adapted to different personnel and certainly has gathered respect around the league.

The ball sure looked like it moved when it hit the turf

This is really a brutal collapse by BC. Played defense like it was a huge lead

I can somewhat agree - it's clear we are regressing, but after back to back Cup wins you can really only regress right? Nobody wins forever.

It was still a heck of a run for 5 Cup appearances and yet another winning season. Used to beg for a 10-8 season some years. This team could have folded after an all time failure of a first half. But they didn't. That should count for something, even though the result was still a loss. Coaching staff and players battled back. Frustrating year for sure but its more enjoyable to remember the fun parts too.

Well it will be a wild offseason

I hope Alexander plays just awful next week. Cannot get over how awful an impression I got of him as just an actual person.
