Can't be worse than what we have now.

Agreed, but the players looked like they were trying. I wouldn't have bet on the Bombers against any of them, except Ottawa.

All four CFL teams today have showed more motivation than the Bombers have in the past 90 minutes of play.

Is that the only option that you can see- that if the current coaches are fired that there will be no one to replace them?

That is an arguable point.

Because its been working so well for us the past few years....

There really no good argument to be made for keeping incompetent coaches just because you cannot think offhand of who would be better. O'Shea has obviously made the decision that these (Hall and LaPolice) were keepers, and if he cannot see the problems or is just plain too stubborn to change, then he has put his own head on the chopping block.

My worst fears about the team have been realized. When we are assessing the team, it is a package- player talent, player effort, recruitment and coaching. However, it appears to me that the talent is there, but the coaching fails at the worst times. Has the coaching staff lost the confidence of the players? Have the players lost confidence in each other and themselves as a team? The reality is that it is too late to make wholesale player changes and if I am right about the coaches being the biggest problem, that would make little or no difference anyways. Over the past couple of months, the Riders have been a better team and the comparative records support this. The prospects for the rest of the season and the playoffs look pretty dim right now and I have lost confidence that the current regime can turn the ship around. We will make the playoffs but we are into next year country. Again. If Walters isn't part of the solution, then he is part of the problem and I really like what he has done to date.

As a footnote, in the post-game OB interview, O'Shea was very subdued and trotted out the usual pap but did admit that the team got pushed around. Couldn't say more until he watched the film.

TiCats had no running game, but managed to win because Bombers had no pass defence. Bombers had not much of a running game or passing game. Game, set, match. O'Shea in post-game had no answers, only cliches and vagueness.

Ain't gonna happen, sad to say.

Bombers are going to drop to #7 in the power rankings and deservedly so. This is a mess.

Getting to the point where few care why.

This was a group clusterbuck.

Streveler looks defeated.

Someone needs to take Adams aside and explain that to him.

Lawler one of the few Bombers competing tonight.

Damned few Bombers on the bench looked pissed off.

Adams really didn't fight for that pass. Time to bring out McGuire for the hell of it.

Hardrick still playing like a statue.

Fornication! Best pass of the game for the Bombers and its washed out.

Even Ticat backup linemen are getting through. Sad, Just sad.

Cuthbert trying to make this sound like a close game.

Rather trade for Steinauer.

Likely the result of a desperation throw. We're officially boned.
