Honestly Floyd, you might be right. We might look back on this game and say this is the one that finished MOS.

I wouldn’t be surprised. 

Matt Nichols, garbage time Montana

I would guarantee that a change at QB would at the very least give this team a spark. One that was sorely missing today. 

Me thinks if we lose to sask next week and depending on what happens later today, mos will be in trouble. Doubt they would fire him at that point in the season but he might be forced to deal with some issues he doesn’t appear to want to deal with right now....namely DC and QB

Coaching was absolutely horrendous today. 

But Matt Nichols still gives us the best chance to win.

 

Why leave Nichols in with game out of reach or Harris for that matter ?

Complete implosion in crunch time......and I mean everybody.   Awful and embarrassing.    This team might contend for .....500

Not sure if any QB will give us a chance as long as lapo continues to call crappy games like this one

If Harris is sidelined under concussion protocol for the Labour Day classic...  Osh is done

1827 hooks, 28389 slants, 38947 curls......all in front of the defenders.   Utter crap.

I got nothing............good to stay about what we just witnessed in that second half, the results say it all.

Lapo may be the only coordinator who would evenly match up with Hall...

Nichols better go to church tomorrow and thank the lord this game wasnt at home. If he thought the boos were bad last game.....He'd have been rocking in the corner with a tear soaked jersey.

this rest of this season is not looking promising at all.

They seem to be doing the same thing with Nichols they did with Willy.

Which means they Learned nothing from that whole experience.

Which is maybe the worst thing, they seem to make the same mistakes season after season.

Because MOS is a ****ing stubborn ***hole who i am more than done with. He can go back to Toronto and coach special teams.

I’d argue it’s worse than with Willy. They at least got rid of Willy when it was clear he was done.

Crap game calling by Lapo...

Nichols looks broken

Harris not even in the game plan

Hall can't defend when it counts

Randle missing a step

Osh startin to get the Tim Burke stare...

lol

In the well deserved Nichols and general offense bashing, let us not forget the 516 yards our defense gave up, including 249 to Jorden. Mind boggling with that much high priced talent out there. 

You know what is also frustrating for me?.........I've hardly heard anything on hear about Kyle Walters....Craig Roh???...Why??... Walters better have a heart to heart with O'Shea about starting Strevler next week......Darn do something........

So sick of MOS coaching style.  At what point do we equate his stubbornness with stupidity? He really has to go. Keep him to the end of the season as it looks like a lost cause but at the end of the season can him & the entire staff.

Just a frustrating game. I know I'm pessimistic but I don't like how this team is trending. Feels like we're going to finish 4th and get a crossover spot at best.

What can you do if your O cant stay on the field though. Our D is not super humans that they dont get tired.

Would Claybrooks move to Winnipeg to become our Head Coach?
