The team would be aces at taking intentional offside penalties.

Of course they care. That's why we average a new coach every two or three years. They aren't intentionally making poor hires. They believe they are making the correct choices

They already know that fans are unhappy and their support is waning. All they have to do is look around the stadium on gameday and listen to the fans booing their own team. They know the fans are pissed, never question that.

I am not sure about that. A win in 07 likely would have prevented Mike Kelly from coming here and starting the downward spiral he did. He took a hatchet to the roster and gutted everything and was so causitc he was fired immediately and we got into another rebuild which was followed up by another rebuild. A win in 07 though the pressure in 08 is gone and Berry and Taman likely get more time before they start looking for the next guy and maybe the roster isn't gutted in one fell swoop. Team has been spinning it's tires every since They decided to can Berry and bring in Kelly.

You are the one who said the guy looks fast as if it had any meaning what so ever about his ability to be a defensive back. Lots of guys on a football team are fast, not all of them can cover.

Fooforaw. 26 years since there will be no cup this year.

plus if we did hire Tillman we could use this clip all the time....

not even if I'm really really mad?

I also just want to add, that the Bombers are not a joke. Jokes are funny and this isn't funny.

Have you read this place? It's a zoo after a loss, any loss regardless of what happened before or what manner of loss it was. This fan base is up and down more than a yo-yo.

if being fast was the only requirement to cover guys then let's scout the 100m dash at the Rio Olympics for our next db....

Oh it's cute that you think that. Bomber fans have no tolerance for losing, if they'd fired O'Shea and were still losing in this fashion this season they'd still be angry except instead of calling for O'Shea to be publicly flogged in the streets it would be Walters and his new head coach along side him they'd want to see be whipped through the streets.

SAM is a defensive back position not a linebacker position. Once we accept that we can all stop making silly things about asking linebackers to play defensive back positions.

Ugh not Higgins, I'd take Pervert Tillman before Higgins, Tillman is a piece of **** but at least he is actually good at his job.

Neufeld's biggest fan is Kyle Walters, he's going to be a staple on this team until he either breaks beyond repair or Walters is canned. Neufeld was one of the very first moves Walters made and he paid more than he should have to get him because he feels that strongly about him.

They don't hand the ball off to Harris enough for that to happen and when they do hand off to him he's having to make guys miss in the backfield so if he gets a yard or two it's a big win. The run game on this team sucks and it's because guys aren't winning the line of scrimmage. Sets the tone for everything. Why did we expect any different from a Lapo offense? We saw it here twice before and the only time it looked good was with Khari Jones tossing the ball to Stegall and Bruce with Roberts and Sellers liberally sprinkled in. I could probably look good calling an offense with those guys around.

You know the thread about the old timey players no one talks about has names like Bobo in there, just a giant fat guy but man could he move people out of the way and little Charlie Roberts would just pop out from behind him. Benedict Ibisi came in to play centre when they couldn't find any Canadians who could do it too. I just don't understand why it's so hard for them to bring in some americans who can win the battle at the line of scrimmage.

Gotta sell hope to get asses in the seats. Fans turned in Willy so next guy might sell more seats regardless what happens in Edmonton. Sneak out a win people will rejoice and think it's all better

You oh so publically denounce fandom of a team then waltz back in acting like people would forget how proud you were of turning your back on the team you claimed to be a fan of and you are surprised people take you to task for it? Get over yourself.

I'd take all of Ottawas receivers over Adams not just Jackson and Williams. I don't know what Walters sees in Adams. He's a run of the mill inconsistent receiver. Good to be your #4 guy maybe but to be looked at as a main weapon? No wonder the offense struggles. Guy is straight up lazy on the field.

Hall has always been a passive defensive coordinator. That's the #1 thing I remember about him in Saskatchewan is his prevent defence.

I'm not trying to gain any kind of morale high ground. I'm comfortable being confrontational and argumentative, I know I'm doing it and I don't get surprised when people react accordingly. I'm just trying to help you see that you are doing the exact same thing and acting surprised when people react accordingly.

Lapolice was fired because he was coaching not to get blown out rather than coaching to win. That 10-8 record is attributed to a defense that played with aggression and swagger that forced a lot of turnovers and dragged a passive head coach along for the win. Lapo is a great coach if you only want to lose by a little bit, but he doesn't have the balls to win those tight games. Nothing has changed with him, we still see that passive guy as the offensive coordinator.

Did he really look better thoug? He had the same problems connecting on the deep balls because our receivers can't get separation downfield, he had no help from the running game, he got hit and sacked and rushed too, you know what the big advantage Nichols had was? He got to play in 3 down football territory. Give Willy an extra down at a few points in the game maybe we have a different opinion of his game too. I will agree that Nichols came in with more confidence, but that always happens when a backup goes in midgame. We saw the team with Nichols last year, it's not different. People are just holding out hope that the easy change fixes everything.
