looks like we checked out early for the bye week.......piss poor performance considering.....We haven't won anything yet

I can't believe that is how the streak ends, and now we have to sit on that turd for two weeks.

Oh well 

Since we are cutting guys who **** the bed tonight 

 

Stanley Bryant... pack yer **** 

Geoff Gray... pack yer ****

It’s a mid-season loss after a brutal schedule.  They won’t use it as an excuse but it was an obvious factor.

Things to fix and they will go back to work after healing up a bit.

Couture can’t come back soon enough and Buck needs to figure out how to keep ZC8 in one piece.  The defense needs a rest in the worst way.

1st loss in like a year really and ppl losing their ****. It's sad to see honestly 

Can’t just blame the kicker. This was a team wide stink up.

Id say most people are pretty chill... definitely a gutting loss though. Hurts the soul lol

That offside call is even more interesting since the ball isn't exactly on the 1, it's a bit behind.

Interesting on rewatch.  The yard to give isn't necessarily at the goal line.

I'm ok with the loss. Hopefully teaches them that there are areas needed to be improved. Oline has not been great and the last few weeks we have turned the ball over Lots too. 

This loss starts with the offensive line and ends with out kicker shifting the bed.

Yeah it's a meaningless game in the standings but hopefully lots of fodder for improved scheming on offense to grow some consistency, score more points.

D just needs to play faster and a bit more focused.

The D lol 

5 guys standing around watching weineke catch the ball. Just yup. Whole team looked off today. I guess I'll  blame the jerseys

I am. Burn them.

This was the ultimate trap game and the Bombers fell into it. Didn't show up...plain and simple. Guys were thinking about finally getting a bye. No big deal, these things happen and are why undefeated seasons are so rare.

10 straight weeks took it's toll on our team, and we lacked energy tonight. Brutal schedule and a 9-1 record and some are upset tonight? I don't get it. 

Worst OL performance in years. That's my reason for losing the game. Feel for Legs.... He's done more than his share this year. Young kid had a hiccup.

Ehhhh. I guess. They don't let him kick over 45 really and pretty sure he's missed a couple xp.

I would agree hes shown improvement and the punting has been good. Seems he collapses the minute theirs pressure on him. I wouldn't feel comfortable kicking in the playoffs

Yeah.  OL man to man got beat but Buck also got mollywhopped in this two game series by Thorpe.  Really needs to figure out some ideas to handle pressure that aren't 4 yard hospital balls to Rasheed Bailey with his back to the defense.

If Montreal had a halfway decent QB they'd have a chance to contend.

Young kid had a hiccup and then threw up all over the goal post. He **** the bed, then puked all over it. 

You choke once... he had a chance to make up for that choke and then just went and choked again for good measure.  

 

this loss is not solely on Legg's foot- there is a **** ton of player's fingerprints on this loss, most notably the ones across the goal line on that 3rd and goal stand...

Tonight, we made the key mistakes down the stretch.....instead of the opposition.....

1-9 is absolutely disgraceful.   Wait a minute........need more gin...

I blame the fans doing the wave while we were driving up 7. Pissed off fate and Collaros fumbled and then the disappointment.

They were just gassed out. Not surprising it didn’t happen sooner. 9-1 with no Brandon Alexander is remarkable, let alone the other injuries. They’ll kick the **** out of everyone down the stretch, book it. 

If you wanna tell the world that you're dim and don't really understand football, you blame Legs, who's kicking 90+% while doing all 3 jobs (and punted and kicked off magnificently tonight). 

Rare was the time people lauded him for the games we won with his kicks, but as soon as he misses one, people lose their ****. **** off.

Well Gary's guarantee finally rang true.
