SpeedFlex27 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 We are NOT a last place team. We are a one & done playoff team. just like the last 2 seasons. wpgallday1960, Goalie, rebusrankin and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stubbornness in general and his loyalty when it comes to veterans. Even his lack of NEVER going for 2 unless the game is on the line is ridiculous and plain dumb.

That’s something he really has to think about. If your opponent scores multiple 2 point converted touchdowns and you keep kicking 1’s, how do you get those points back? You’re shorting yourself a possession once that gap is 3-4 points just from converts. rebusrankin and AKAChip 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba Zanetti Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Man, to get a** spanked like that at home....what a disaster. They finally get over 27000 for a game and proceed to defecate all over the field. Games like this are not going to help the bottom line. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to get better. Just really frustrated. And flabbergasted that O Shea would leave Nichols in the game. Streveler appears to have a huge upside......if he was to be the next big thing in the CFL could you imagine being the people who held him back ? deepsixemtoboyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its still far too early to roll with Streveler, but man, if Nichols is still doing his best Trent Dilfer impersonation and we lose the next 3 (which is very much a possibility) than it might be time to see what he can do. rebusrankin, deepsixemtoboyd and Goalie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either not prepared by Lapo and Co or doesn’t pick it up and hit the hot route.

O'Shea's loyalty to players and his coaching staff is problematic, and Lapo's inability to adjust or to use situational play calling is also an issue. Our offence should not be so fragile to look like the mess it does when Dressler is out of the lineup, and when Harris is contained we have no ability whatsoever to counter that.

It seems like they go in with a game plan and from the get-go it doesnt work so they do absolutely nothing to rectify the situation, just keep throwing the same s*** against the wall hoping it sticks.

pigseye Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 They got ass whooped tonight plain and simple. You can blame the coaches all you like but the talent just isn't there in the secondary or receiver positions for this team to contend with the top dogs.

Playing Lankford over Petermann was another head scratcher. Everytime he's in he's a sparkplug & makes plays. Lankford is an average receiver who doesn't make plays. Bad decision.

AKAChip Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 I'd kill for Lankford to be an average receiver. That would be a massive improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 I was at the game today this is what I saw.. Terribly soft defense in first half with zero blitzes soft zone coverage easy pickings. Absolutely terrible game by the refs mostly the tiny short ref was the worst. Lots of mediocre calls on us that killed us. Fogg had the worst game I've ever seen by a bomber db. Absolutely terrible tonight. Bighill is a must read sign he was amazing. Nicholls not seeing wide open guys in front of him. Harris was waaaay better. Fans were absolutely livid at the end when they pulled Streveler. Completely sucked all the energy out of the crowd when they did it. No idea why they because he was making much quicker decisions and wasn't telegraphing his throws. Nichols really locked in on some guys. Lankford succcks try someone else. This defense won't win the big games .. the DBS were burned and the initial gameplan was terrible. Today was a perfect example of how this defense can't stop **** unless the dline gets pressure.
