White Out

Between the play calls, our receivers dropping the ball when they rarely got open, and Nichols playing like a deer in headlights in the 4th... I am overwhelmed with how bad the O played in the game.

Terrible throw at the end by Nichols. Rattled. This team lost the game when they had to rely on the D to hold a lead in the 2nd half. Too many dropped balls, special teams was brutal, and as the game wore on Nichols got tighter and tighter. Brutal. Can't wait for our smiling idiot head coach to be gone.

Does any other d collapse like this every game? Jesus

Sigh.

The second half has been really bad. Saskatchewan is moving the ball and of those well over 200 yards most of it was in the third quarter. Another second-half Collapse by the D no matter how you want to put makeup or lipstick on that pig

Receivers need to stop dropping balls sure. But the d is well rested. Oh look. Another blown cover. Called it. ******* called it.

2nd half d collapse?

Put in Strevelererererrrr!!!

The whole point is to win the championship. I get that you're trying to focus on the short-term, but ignoring the long-term suffering of fans who have been watching this team stink for nearly three decades is really obnoxious.

Uh Why? Lol

Big game today. Love LD.

I know when I try and quantify Micheal O'Shea's accomplishments I often think "you know what.... He's very comparable to Tom Landry"

If we don't win a playoff game this year I'd love to hear why MOS deserves another year of our time to waste.

Ok Dr Strange.

The record of labour day speaks for itself. Compare the Riders overall win loss to the ldc win loss. It's a simple question of why the Riders in history have blown as an organization yet still on ldc more often than not embarrass the Bombers.

I'd say MOS but his big qualifications before becoming our nearly 5 year head coach was a couple seasons as a special teams coordinator. sigh.

I'm still looking forward to LD because it's a big part of the CFL and the Bombers. I don't relish the thought of those green pigs in the stands getting to cheer on yet another humiliating LDC loss. But what can you do.

Historically it seems the Rough Riders have taken this game more seriously than the Bombers. I want this game and our fans want this game desperately. Just win ffs

Ya it's pretty hard to imagine how bad the d has to be let a guy pick up 250 yards receiving in one game. Thanks Hall.

What comments did Nichols make?

Bomber D has been a flaming bag of dog poo for 4.5 years. Our offence has been poor off and on this year... mostly poor... And people are all over them. The lack of understanding of the game is shocking to read in some posts.

He's having a bad year. Reasonably people believed the D was repaired in the off season personnel wise with signings. There was optimism. Things haven't gone well, and there's no easier target than a struggling QB in Winnipeg. It is shocking though because Willy did, no matter with a couple people will say, get a lot more slack than Nichols is getting. I can't say I understand it but maybe it's because Willy was thought to have such a high ceiling. So here we are. 5-5 in a season with hopes and our team is slowly falling apart. We're heading into a LD with the Riders seemingly getting it together at the same pace as we're falling apart. I suspect that a loss next week will be very damaging to our morale. A loss back to back to the Riders? Honestly I'd probably put the remote down and tune out, and I suspect a lot of people would too until next year if changes are made. But make no mistake. This is on MOS and Walters. They picked this receiving core that can't get open and make catches. They allowed our O line to become porous. They hired the coordinators. Time is ticking as far as I'm concerned on these guys.

Who has the say in both coordinators? Who keeps trotting out the wrong players at the wrong time? who tied a 410 yard field goal in the playoffs on 3rd down on our last drive? MOS is a bad coach and an intellectual light weight, to be very polite.

I agree BLM is elite. But if you think BLM being elite makes MOS a good coach you're really doing some impressive mental gymnastics to make excuses for him. He's probably the 2nd or maybe worst coach in the CFL. He's a nice guy with a **** eating grin that lets his players do whatever they want but he can't put this team into the elite category. Hell, he will struggle to coach this team to the playoffs it seems.

MOS once again out coached in the 2nd half and it was incredibly pronounced.
