SpeedFlex27 Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) I saw the Calgary Sun headline that O'Shea was unhappy we lost. As good a coach as he is, I just don't get the mindset. He rests a number of veterans, plays a rookie qb in his first start & we go into BC Place & put up 32 points on a high scoring team that really should have blown us up. We have three missed FG's & 2 pick 6's. take those away we win going away. If Mike O'Shea hates losing so much, then he should play his starters & win. He should be satisfied that his 2nd string qb looks like he has the potential to be a starter for us. that the backups played hard & the overconfident Lions had to work hard to beat us.

It stinks.” BaconNBigBlue, rebusrankin, Tracker and 7 others 4 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mindset us that who ever plays is capable. And when you lose ultimately due to mistakes like missed field goals and pick 6s it's even easier to be mad about it.

17to85 Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 Look at the team to the west, always excuses. This guy was hurt, so and so is playing injured, blah blah blah. Vs. Back to back Champs where sure it was glorified preseason and the coach goes "doesn't matter we still should have won" and he is right. They had every chance to win that game if not for some self-inflicted wounds. Bigblue204, Mark F, Blue-urns and 8 others 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 You should never be comfortable after a loss....that's for losers and your focus should always be on a win...I like O'Shea's attitude and the players as well ...Winners Blue-urns, Sard, Goalie and 4 others 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact he isn't and neither is the rest of the team... is a big reason why they are the class of the league. The game plan was solid- if it wasn't for two pick-sixes or the missed field goals- we win this one. I would be upset with the loss- hell, I am upset with the loss.

Geebrr Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 Watching Ryan Phillips run into an endzone like he had done anything was ultimate cringe.

Brown seems unfazed at least not noticeably bothered about his two pic 6 throws. Not that he didn’t care, but recognized that he needed to put that behind him. Buck might have been helpful in that as well. A year to date 120 efficiency, 5 td’s, 2 ints, and basically over 240 yards passing in the second half, proves he could adjust. Dobson was deserving of some highlights, Adams was very serviceable - he might have got a sac too, after being released by Sk (apparently he asked for it - because of locker room poison) and Lofton can only improve from here. Bighill, Jeffcoat, Bryant and Hardrick are big shoes to fill. These second stringers didn’t just fall into being adequate, they were coached to win and worked to be respected by their bosses.

BomberfanMKS Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 The first pick 6 was where Brown's inexperience really showed - I'm fairly certain the throw was supposed to get released so that ball arrived just after the receiver made his turn to the sideline (a timing route). The bobbled snap disrupted that timing and Brown tried to force the play anyways. The receiver was open if the ball was coming just as he made his turn.

Rod Black Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) When is the Bombers coaches show on cjob? Tuesday? Would like to hear MOS opinion of the illegal kickoff in the 4th. Does he think it was an illegal kick? He wouldn’t say in public the refs made a mistake, Id guess. Was it suppose to be a short kick, a squib, or did the camera work miss it heading out of bounds? Have the Mafia asked the league for further clarity on the call? can’t listen to it on Tuesday, I’ll be busy in some mom’s basement - for real, so if it’s mentioned, a comment here would be cool!
