Let us not forget that streveler last start was that ugly loss in Hamilton. People are too reactionary here.

Nichols has injuries in his past, streveler will get his playing time.

Name a team that doesn't question the coaching after a loss. The wailing and gnashing of teeth now reminds me of after the loss in Hamilton. They rebounded after that, why don't we see what the response is before we all jump off the ledge?

And what if Streveler doesn't take that next step? Then what? Let's not make a change until streveler has shown he is clearly better, which ha hasn't yet.

The fact that every team that's had him has released him seems to indicate otherwise.

But her emails!

no, the league revolves around the riders don't you know?

no the offense was the worst part. constant 2 and outs left the defense on the field too often. No TOP, no points, no pressure on the other team it doesn't matter what the D does it's going to be a bad night for them statistically.

Since Nichols took over 3 years ago only calgary has won more games, how is that 6 years of futility?

We are getting comparable or better production from our Canadian receivers when Kohlert is the bar, and Smith didn't do **** while he was here, Thompkins looks to be just as good. Just because Dressler got hurt and they put Lankford in doesn't mean the receivers are completely useless. That Ottawa game was a Lapo problem much moreso than a talent problem.

If the bombers had won and the riders had lost this thread wouldn't be here and there wouldn't be any "discussion" It's like I said in the last BS thread you started, Rider fans are complete and utter trash. The worst thing about the CFL is Rider fans.

I think our receivers overall are fine (when Dressler is in there anyway), I think the problems are a one trick pony Lapolice who if what he cooks up isn't working doesn't know how to change things.

I don't even believe Nichols is the problem. All year this team has lived and died by the run game, well the run game wasn't working on Friday and none of the receivers stepped up. Adam's I guess but he's just one guy. Lapo got out coached and that was the ball game.

yahuh. Here's the thing, one week doesn't change anything, Stamps took the weak sister of the west lightly and got burned nothing more than that.

I'd have left Streveler in only to save the wear and tear on Nichols, but he's still the guy for this team. I don't even think he was that bad, lots of penalties took plays off the board for them, he dealt with a lot of dropped passes and he dealt with a team that was taking away the Bombers running attack which screwed up the entire game plan. Just one of those games that happens where the other team executes their planned defense and you can't find the answers for it.

They also suggest that the team plays with a lead a lot of the time, which every team in the CFL gets more conservative with.

Rider fans acting like douches, what a surprise. Sun shines on every dogs ass now and then.

why are we even arguing about converts anyway? The offense doesn't go 2 and out all night it wouldn't matter.

when lapo is good he's very good, when he's bad he's really a dumb ass.

kicking the single was probably smarter considering how inept the offense was. Medlock is automatic, our offense was **** on the night.

They've already throttled some teams.... Montreal, Toronto x2, BC....

Jones is too arrogant to take that deal.

I don't. They canpack the stadium for calvillo beating up the weak east but not now? I hate fair weather fans.

No honestly I don't think close game that was pissed away late counts as a game that should have been won. I certainly don't think that it's fair to say the bombers should have won the first game vs. Edmonton. They ****** up at bad times and lost a close game.

Because the Riders blew a late lead? Sorry but football doesn't work that way. Gotta be good enough to close out games to say you should have won.
