SpeedFlex27 Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 And what will the O'Shea supporters say if he brings back his entire coaching staff next year after signing a brand new 3 year deal? Cuz I think that is what will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, so now you believe the cupboards were bare after all. I believe the team has a respectable record after his first two years. And you certainly don’t have to agree with me.

Arnold_Palmer Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Good teams are getting better as we get closer to the playoffs. We’re being exposed as pretenders. Plus big Chris just simply isn’t that guy. You get a little pressure on him and instead of stepping up into the pocket he looks to dance around and he’s been exposed.

Hardrick is playing hurt - what else is wrong with the OL? Or do you mean more Canadians starting? Secondary looks to be on the way up - just Rose trying to do too much in the 4th Q today.

I feel like we have enough Canadian talent in the OL pipeline that we’re likely set for awhile. We really only need a Hardrick upgrade assuming Bryant has a couple good years left in him. Secondary is the easiest position to find Americans and even still, there are a ton of young talented American DBs on the roster already. Sayles and Rose are close to as good as it gets.

Ha - I was just trying to understand the statement... 9-9 and one and done gets coaches fired unless you're rebuilding The challenge I have as on Osh supporter is that Walters, Miller and Osh thought Etch and Bellefuile would be a good set of coordinators We let them off the hook because 'no one wanted to be in Winnipeg'... Then Lapo was brought back and Hall signed - BOTH of these guys had huge red flags back then... none of what we're seeing today is unexpected Yet its year four of Lapo and five of Hall... how can this not fall on Osh/Walters?

That’s true of American positions. You need your base of Canadian players and new draft picks, as well as a competent QB. After Taman and Mack, we had none of those, and I was quite frankly surprised we were able to hire someone as competent as O’shea for HC. Imagine the team during the Mack era losing a high caliber starting Canadian OG - it would have been an absolute disaster. MOBomberFan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the team during the Mack era losing a high caliber starting Canadian OG - it would have been an absolute disaster. Its really time to move on from the Mack excuse... team is rebuilt. I would never say fire Walters and Miller until they've had another coach under their reign - Bauer's problem was that he didn't like Ritchie, it got personal and he couldn't let it go... now I think we have the opposite problem - we like Osh as a person too much and can't look at it rationally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR. CFL Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 2 hours ago, Floyd said: Hate to say it but the Oshea era is over... Young showed tonight that Richie Hall really is the problem - even with Winston Rose's miscues Playing Neufeld over Gray has cost this team - that's on Oshea Sticking with Lapo and Hall - its finished Osh Another QB ruined. Young showed tonight that having a player that can actually make plays at safety is huge. So perhaps you could have been DC tonight and had the same better result.

It's not that easy. It really doesn’t matter how good the rest of your roster is if your QB and OC suck. And either one or the other has been the case for almost all of the past 29 years.

Although this does raise the question - who's decision was it to stick with Hecht this long? Hall or Osh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
