I predict that O’Shea will lead us to a Grey Cup win and also that no one should start a thread right after a loss ha

I ain't convinced Campbell gets fired. The rest are a pretty big gamble and I am especially not sold on Dyce becoming a good one. 

I just see this team taking the easy way out and going with Lapo if O'Shea is out. 

I don't think Miller is that stupid but you never know?

So aside from Maas I guess - who are all these coaches that players don’t want to play for?  This argument is so weak

you don’t think Rick Campbell would be an instant upgrade - or mark Nelson, Constanza, Dyce etc

Good lord are those horrendous options and massive steps back from Osh.... Just.... Wow. 

Surely there's a div2 coach out there with a great football mind. Why do we have to keep recycling **** coaches?

How is Campbell a step back? Costanza is an excellent receivers coach probably ready to be an OC. He's coached under Huff & Dickenson for a decade. If anyone knows the Stamps system, it's him. I'd take Nelson over Hall as a DC in a heartbeat.  Other than Campbell, the other guys as HC's, no. But Costanza should be looking to move up as a coordinator. He could be a future HC.

Campbell's success has come with very good qbs in a very bad division. Now he has very bad qbs in an improved division, and he looks lost. It would be interesting to see how he'd do with our roster. 

Not sure why the other names should be considered "instant upgrades".

Edit: did you mean bringing the entire Ottawa coaching staff here under Campbell, or those guys as potential head coaches?

Condell would be a guy ready to be a HC. Dinwiddie & Costanza as OC candidates. Ricky Ray as a qb coach. To me,Nik Lewis would be an interesting receivers coach. Why the **** Claybrooks has him as a running backs makes no sense. The guy should be coaching receivers.

Almost every successful HC has had a great or great qbs playing for him as well as great players at other positions. I could give coaches names & the qbs they had playing for them but do I need to? So, I find that argument doesn't carry a lot of weight.

It does when you're comparing him to a guy who has coached in a tough division with average to poor qbs.

The East won more Grey Cups than the West the past few years. I know what you're saying & you're not wrong  but championships are what it's all about. 

Just wish there was some competence. Streveler is not a quarterback and O'Shea and Lapolice fail to see it. Terrible.

I’m ready for O’Shea to move on 

took the foot off the gas after the first half stomping in Montreal, and it's been mainly downhill since then.

This team does not look like a playoff winner at all.

Worst thing for me is sending a clearly beaten up Chris Streveller.

sure, let O'Shea go to one of the many teams that are clamouring and lining up to have him as their head coach.

I'm not quite there but at a minimum O'Shea must have the kahonies to fire Hall and Lapolice. If he doesn't, he should be gone too.

The philosophy of many of you (and possibly the Bomber organization) here -  why strive for greatness when being good is enough.

Ya right fire Hall? The defence directly scores one TD and has an INT responsible for scoring another TD. YOUR offence passes for what 135yds...completes one pass over 20 yds downfield and the QB is the leading rusher.?

The first 9 passes thrown by Bo Levi were not defended even a slight amount 

The defense was terrible tonight. Let's not pretend otherwise. BLM passed at will.

217 passing for us. Bo was 6 of 9 for 135 at 1 point with 3 drops.

And how would you rate the offence then?

Less worse.

They put up enough points to win 

I don't care what happens to Osh, I just want Hall & Lapo gone as soon as the season ends.

Hey doc, what game were you watching? The D had a moment or two but for the majority of the game they were nowhere near BLM or a Calgary receiver. 

Interestingly, while coach Hall was away for two weeks the D including the backs had a couple of decent games. I realize that the guys who were running the D while Hall was away were using the same overall "scheme" but individual plays were called differently....more aggressive in my opinion....with better results.

Not really 7 directly from a fumble recovery and 7 from an interception deep in Cal end....but otherwise they didn’t really did they?
