Will the roster changes make any difference for the Blue?

Can Matt Nichols pick up his game?

Do they have Streveler prepared in waiting in case Nichols is flat again?

Statistical probability favor the home team in back to back games ...

Can Bob Irving or the crowd help us?

I wouldn't fire any coaches this season,   next year Hall is clearly gone.    I'm unsure about LaPo and O'Shea...  

Surely to gawd we all know this regime is unsustainable. I hope we don't have to listen to a bunch of Walters/O'Shea/Lapo/Hall apologists. I wouldn't keep a single one of them and Miller needs to order the dismantling immediately.

Doubt it. Especially if Streveler starts going forward. He'll be given a chance to work with him.

He clearly didn't have anything installed for Streveler this week.  That's inexcusable at this point of the season.  Nichols could get hurt, or continue his poor play and need to be pulled.  Then we're going to throw Streveler out there to run Nichols' game plan.  If I'm HC there's no way that guy is calling the plays in the next game.  Maybe keep him to help whoever is taking over and keep coaching receivers (or maybe not since all our imports are terrible), but there's no way he can keep calling plays.

No excuses, you just got swept by a organization that is behind you in the rebuilding process. So if Jones is an idiot what does that make us? 

Walters is weak, which is what I have been saying.

I would hire Murphy as GM in a heartbeat. The personnel that Sask has brought in are exceptional.

About twice as good at every position compared to the Bombers.

5 years is enough they have had their shot, we are no closer to a Grey Cup then when they started for the sake of this organization everyone from top to bottom needs to go at the end of the season.

A team with a horrible quarterback and an ignoramus designing and calling the offense.

You have a rookie QB in the game, down one score, and you dont run the ball ONCE with your best player?? Lapo is braindead.

Riders shut down the run.

It's all about the data-base

Still need to mix it up as opposed to having a rookie QB drop back to pass on EVERY snap.

Doug Brown calling out Lapo big time on OB.  Saying team not prepared and can see it in how they start game vs how they play in 2nd half.

O'Shea has to go. he's the biggest problem holding this team back.

Yeah, when he was in the peg it was a **** sh*w, but not all of that is on him.

I think he is the best personnel guy in the league. Even when he was in Winnipeg, the players he brought in were the key tp developing Swaggerville a few years later.

Lapo will be.

Also better work on fixing the OL, get some depth.  Can't survive with Couture and Neufeld at RT.

He won't be. No way does MOS fire Lapo after giving Hall that amount of rope.

And you can do a lot more than between the tackles turn and hand off with Streveler.  Should have been running a ton of read option.  How is that not in our base playbook when our #2 QB is a guy like Streveler?  How is Lapo this negligent?  If I were MOS I'd have him in a chokehold right now.

Only positive for me today was the play of Wolitarsky and Petermen and Petermen only got in their becasue of an injury.

Then what's the point in having a HC? He's just as culpable as the coordinators. 

For the rest of this year...

Start Shreveler...

Sign Chris Matthews...

that crossover spot still a possibility

Miller will not.

He will also be offered up by the BOD as a sacrificial  lamb.

D has never been this pathetic.  When they've struggled we've had no offense.  This offense is pathetic.  Maybe we can petition the league to play the Argos every week so we can feel good about it.  It's BAAAAD.  The D isn't going to win them games, but it's league average.  The O is just terrible against any respectable opponent.

They are going to have to sign some import receivers, all of theirs are injured.

Talking Offense.  Which is Lapo's domain.

We're no further either...

We are the same distance from the grey cup as every other team in this league.

Davir Posey is available.... oh wait!

A guy who hasn't played a football game in 3 years is going to help us?  Probably get hurt in his first game.
