This is a good "perspective" post. We haven't lost anything yet. We are playoff bound and anything can and does happen in the CFL.

When it comes to Blue Bomber history, he who cannot draw on the last 11 years is living from hand to mouth.  Look at where this team was at after 2008 & 2009 - the cupboard was bare.  Other than a 2011 GC berth, we had absolutely pathetic seasons after that.  
O’Shea brought success and competence to this team.  To include the first two seasons just to make the point that he is .500, given the mess he inherited, is misleading. 
Other changes need to be made, but the coach who turned this team and organization into something respectable needs to stay.  
Meanwhile, we can keep lamenting our 9 - 6 team.  In other news, the Grey Champion lost to the predicted tire fire. 

When the D plays like they did tonight, Nichols wins, period.  The team has lost 3 games in a row, which is bad enough, but in two of those games they beat themselves.  Montreal a failure by the D, Sask a failure by the O.
And whoever is complaining about the D tonight needs to just go to bed.

Then I guess what it comes down to is, do you think with a capable QB that O’Shea has any chance of leading this team to a Grey Cup? If you don’t, you may as well hire the next guy that walks into the office. But if we think this team is a QB away from being a perennial contender, I can’t see how we replace him based on the presumption that we MAY hire the next Bud Grant.

I think that Streveler's performance, miscues and all were the result of him trying to gamble and win the game that was slipping away. He did not look good, but he may yet be salvageable, as Vernon Adams was in Montreal.

Winston Rose played a helluva game.  His “miscues” likely come down to a player feeling like he needed to take the game in his hands.
Good decision? That comes down to a matter of inches.

Hall got better defensive performances against the Riders, just saying. 

How does anyone knock the D today?

That’s a lead. 

If it wasn’t for the defence, we would be in serious trouble.
You’re looking on the wrong side of the ball.

Streveler had Petermann, probably could have challenged PI...then Adams drops a pretty simple first down.

The improvement of having Alexander playing safety will be bigger than the falloff of having Thomas play DT. That guy has never let us down

Too much spin.  That second pick was after Bighill's interception put the O close to the red zone.  They would were only trailing by two TDs.  Cash that in and they would have been within 6 or 7 points - don't remember if the deficit was 13 or 14 points.  

I'm certainly not begrudging anyone who has taken the foot off the pedal and relaxed their stance. The only point I was making is that some of us are just biologically unable. This is why I've always made girlfriends watch "Fever Pitch" early in a relationship. Thankfully the wife likes it and understands....

Maybe. The Cats haven't won anything yet but look to be a very good team. Lots can happen between now and the end of the game on Grey Cup Sunday. It's all about who is healthy and who gets hot at the right time. Might even be us. After all, we've got coaching continuity on our side and you know how valuable that is.  

Good talent, protection and coaching working in his favour. 

Just another diehard WBB fan.
