I mean yes you're right I can't see things that didn't happen. Anything could have happened. 

I'm just saying we were f$%#ed either way.

and its a reflection of poor roster management...and not just at QB....

I don't disagree.

We obviously are built that way. With Strev already out, when Zach got hurt we were screwed. 

Most teams are screwed if their top 2 QBs are out. Unless the D and specials can score some points (see the Argos)

Buck had 2 months to prepare Dolegala to learn the offence, there is no excuse for not being better prepared for Zach to leave the game, which he had to do multiple times this past season.

Argos had  one chance of pulling off a win in 2022 with their backup qb after the starter hurt his hand.... 

Bottom line collaros with a numb index finger and a glove wasn't going to win.

And even then after the first pass when he came back. Every person watching knew it was over. To trot him out after that duck again and again is the peak of futility.

Its actually disturbing that after the first pick they just sat back and watched everything burn rather than trying literally anything else.

It was like watching a Michael bay car crash series in slow motion complete with nuclear scale explosions.

You have no way of knowing that, none at all.  We had every bit as good a chance with our backups vs a starter who clearly could not throw the ball.  A good leader sets up his people to succeed.  With this boneheaded decision, O'Shea set up Collaros and the rest of the team to fail.  One has to ask why he thought a qb with a damaged hand was a better option than a fully functioning backup, who in theory, is there for exactly this sort of situation.

A genuine question I would like to ask MOS and crew is other than short yardage and your starting QB unable to go because physically he can't return due to serious injury, what circumstances do you and your coaching staff use to determine there is a need to make a switch at QB in-game?

For sure there's a better way in asking this question, but is it reasonable to ask this flavor of question without being mocked that I think I know more than MOS and his crew know?

I think it's a reasonable question to receive some specifics even if we have made 5 GC appearances in a row (hopefully 6 next year) which I am forever thankful.

I’d like to know that answer.

See I'm different than you here on this (not right or wrong just different), I don't think I have any right to know anything in how MOS and Crew run their football team, I just think certain things are pretty reasonable and fair to ask them. It's up to the person (s) receiving the question whether they want to answer. Their answer or non-answer can be telling.

as a paying fan...who pays his salry...support the team.....why dont you have a right to have a question asked?...Not asking for them to disclose x and o's and finer details...but why 3 yrs in a row play injured guys....why have a PR that doesnt have adequate injury coverage...why play inferior players just because they been here longer....why play excessive Canadians when you have better Imports.....thats not outrageous by any means...justify it....and not with his canned response "they are here cause they can help us win".....I bet if fans start to stay away...Miller won't be too pleased about it...And I hope he is asking those questions

I am a long time peruser of your site, I never comment, never even opened an account until tonight. I am a Rider fan, wasn't even going to watch the GC but did because I am a CFL fan. I really want to smugly comment on your team's performance but can't because I too have felt the pain. I do feel compelled to offer an alternative to the narrative I'm seeing expressed. 
 

'The West Final gassed your team.'

I watched the WF, the way the Bombers played, fed off the crowd, like damn, the highest of highs. They came out flat in the GC, with the exception of a few.

My opinion with no skin in the game.

I cannot accept that the Bomber played that poorly in the Cup game because they played so well against the Greenies- that ought to have gotten absolutely pumped against the Argos.
