Its hard to say.. I know the 2 goal line stands but.. BC had 4 turnovers to our 5 so.. And 1 with no time left..IMO.. Tough to blame the coach for mental mistakes by our QB.. Buono was first half O'Shea and O'Shea was second half Buono. They were both terrible. O'Shea wasn't smart enough to take points. It's a road game ffs. That's why I'm hanging this on O'Shea moreso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eternal optimist Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 When you're playing with the lead in the 2nd half - how does Harris only get 4 touches? There's aggressive play-calling and then there's playing with fire - they got cocky after the successful onside kick and ran very aggressive tactics that left points on the board.

Perhaps Burnham doesnt drop the ball as half 1 ended.. We still lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Perfect Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 Nichols' issues aside being the Alex Smith of the CFL... ...This team, and coaching staff especially is such a joke. All I want to know is in what world does a running back averaging over 10 yards a carry only have 13 carries all game? This has been my biggest issue with Lapo going back to 2002, his first stint here. He gets too cute and goes away from what's working. This regime will never get out of the first round of the playoffs the way it's run. Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 Crazy thing is how both games the offense/Nichols just tanked in the second half. He made a number of excellent throws in the first half and couldn’t hit anything in the second, even when Bowman had 10 yard radius he way under threw him. Wonder if he’s aggravating his knee as he tires and can’t get much into throws later on. BigBlueFanatic and Mark F 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been plenty of examples of players "playing through pain" - medically cleared by doctors, but still playing through an injury. Most recent memorable example locally was Andrew Ladd playing through a sports hernia during the 2014/2015 Jets season as they pushed (and secured) a playoff spot.

White Out Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) I'm just as disappointed as anybody, and that lost really stings. But I have to say I'm really turned off by how the knives are just flying for Nichols right now. It still amazes me that Drew Willy gets more slack even now than Nichols would get. This team isn't going to win a playoff game with Streveler it has to be Nichols. Let's not get the lynch-mob just yet.

AKAChip Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 Nichols doesn’t have a particularly good arm so has to rely on not screwing up and making good decisions to be effective. When he’s not making good decisions, he’s beyond useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
