Nope. He has shown himself to be remarkably resistant to learning

Not sure if the Bomber loss could be considered an upset- they were showing a lot of cracks even before Friday

Stamps in real big trouble now. If they manage to pull this one out, it would be a small miracle.

Ball looked to be out before his knee hit

The football gods have relented

Collaros' arm was definitely moving forwards

If the Riders hang on to win today, we will be in real trouble come Labour Day.

But you're still cheering for them, right?

The football gods are displeased with the Stamps

THAT'S more like it. The world is starting to make sense again.

Desperation, probably. Game is not over, though but Stamps look a bit rattled.

Collaros doing a credible impression of a quarterback

Do you not think that if O'Shea cannot see or deal with Hall's horrid defence, he is unfit to be a head coach?

Agreed. DeWayne Casey, former coach of the Raptors, was fired because although the team did well in the regular season, it stalled repeatedly in the playoffs. O'Shea is a good guy but he has had ample time to produce even one playoff win and has not.

The game was a perfect shitstorm. The coaches, offence and defence all had massive brain cramps. Special teams were respectable but that's all.

I think the flaw in your logic may be that you are assuming that Nichols will perform better than Streveler and at this point, that is highly debatable.

And if you believe that, there is some oceanfront property in Florida you might be interested in.

DB, I think but error-prone.

Agreed that experience is valuable for receivers, but Simonise's forte was supposed to be speed, and since some here were saying that we do not have the deep threat(s) we need, maybe he is an answer as a replacement for Lankford. Realistically, Lankford should not be that difficult to replace.

I din't think Ottawa did, either, but.....

As screwed-up as the Riders are, I am starting to dread the upcoming home-and-home series with them. The Riders have an excellent defence and for all his failings, Jones is a very good DC, so our stumbling offence could get their lunches eaten big time. And if our defence plays as they did Friday,even a popgun offence might be good enough to beat them. We need reason to hope.

The Bomber malaise is not all on Nichols but in tough times, teams look to their leaders and that has to be Nichols, who is not doing well at the present. Some of the blame also has to fall on the defence as a whole and the coaches.

Fixed that for you.

How will ever find out how good Peterman, Simonise and Washington are if O'Shea keeps trotting Lankford out?

Isn't Pipkin one of the Hobbits?
