I would move this a little higher up. I suggest that Wade Miller go to his GM and inform him that a few coaches are not getting the job done and if he does not make some changes in the off season his job will be at risk. Not even suggesting blowing up anything until end of season but 5 years going no where fast is just about enough. Miller has to worry about season tickets and revenue streams for 2019 and given what we are seeing today - that may be a major issue.

To beat a dead horse, if Miller has to tell Walters what to do about the coaching staff, then Walters is not qualified to do the job and should be fired.

It seems to me that we are one beating away from the team giving up on the season and coaches. And we may get that this coming weekend. We could go on about pride but players are human and its gotta be hard to put your best effort out onto the field if you have no hope of competing, let alone winning.

Just a few minor things. Defence 500 yards here, 500 yards there, offence can't muster up a first down, quarterback unable to complete a pass over 10 yards, can't run the ball, rush can't get to the quarterback. Just some minor tweaks you know?

But but but...we were told that giving up a lot of yards was just fine. Its getting so a girl doesn't know what to think anymore.

Streveler is exciting but Bennett is the future, if our staff doesn't find a way to f that up first. 

What?? Bennett didn't show enough to be kept even in Regina. He may have the right attitude and tools but Streveler has at least demonstrated that he can play at a high level even if it was only for a few plays.

I'll take the cross over spot this year.... with Streveler getting us a cup

I am also a Streveler fan and while he looks to have all the tools and attitude necessary to shine as a CFL quarterback, he does not have the experience and that is hard-won. Even if the Bombers stumble into the playoffs with a crossover, I am not at all confident that they could beat even the Argos.

I am stunned at Nichols' comments about his receivers and the complete deterioration in his play. His words are not those of a leader, but reek of petulance. I do not know how he could possibly regain his credibility and the respect of his teammates. We have gone from having one of the three best quarterbacks in the league to one of the worst. I dread the upcoming two games and the resulting freefall. What a freaking mess.

Yup. They timed him in 40 with a calendar.

Can't bear to watch.

I feel like Walters does a good job with free agency and has built on NI talent well and I like having 2 firsts next year but we have some glaring weaknesses that have been here his entire 5 years.

Walters has done a good enough job to warrant some slack. But if he is prepared to go through another season, he is part of the problem.

Masoli suffered from a couple of drops by his receivers and he ended up getting a TD and field goal in the final minutes of the game to win it.  If Hamilton is able to overcome some questionable drops why can't the Bombers?  Is the talent on the Bombers inferior to that of Hamilton's?

Sure as spit looks like it.

MOS is 3-7 versus Edmonton and 2-9 versus Calgary for a record of 5 and 16. However it will be ok, let's all hold hands around the campfire boys and sing kumbaya.

C'mon Goalie, if he doesn't get this ship turned around he may go down with it. Season 4 1/2 & counting. This team is about as far away from a Grey Cup as it was in 2016. I see no improvement. I don't see this team going on a late season tear. Coach is not managing the roster well at all. Team is in tatters. He is on the hot seat & if he isn't then something's wrong. 

O'Shea has had enough time to show that he has the experience and smarts to build a contender and if we are lucky, we will be a .500 team at years end and limp into the playoffs. If that is good enough for a return to the status quo in 2019, I will sit it out.

Tyson wasn't a head case problem when he was with cus though. That was an evolution of success losing cus and Don King. But I agree with the point. The right coach might be able to fix Carter. 

Nope, but a vet might.

I think doing what's right would be playing through the pain to the point that you can't physically do it anymore.  Matt would have to have something broken or a tear to say he can't go.  Although I haven't been happy with his play of late, the guy is tough as hell and has come back from some pretty bad injuries over his career.  He's a warrior, there's no questioning that.

So were Custer and  Hannibal .

Who'd a thunk that O'Shea would be in the running for the "honour" of being the first HC to be fired this year? The signs have been there all along, but we hoped that it was just rookie glitches, but it appears that when things were getting rough, he just doubled down on stubbornness and blind loyalty.

Suddenly Tom Higgins as head coach is looking real good.

TSN reports that Argos are expected to announce the signing of Duron Carter in the next few days.

McCarty having a tough night.

 

Hamilton still in deep in spite of the FG.

And I would have bet the farm that Reilly was over the line on that last TD pass.

Far off from what?  Two turnover and two TDs in the last two minutes is the definition of game killer.

Hamilton is making mistakes, no doubt but they are not being outplayed for the most part. Masoli does not look bad apart from the INTs.

It will interesting to see if Hamilton makes half-time adjustments and makes it a game. They're not far off.

Man it would be funny here should Lankford get a couple scores Saturday.

The best you hope for with lankford I think is that he doesn't **** up... but he ****** up last week dropping a td pass. Just not reliable enough to be a big factor.

Should O'Shea choose to start Lankford on Saturday, O'Shea's credibility will take a giant hit that he may never recover from.
