White Out

Can't wait see brohm shut up some of his defenders. He's gonna be an epic disaster against bc. Hopefully our d scores points and plays hard.

Considering how little the team wins that's a hollow claim. Context being after decades of incompetence people around here understandably get pissed off after losses. Listen to cjob post game. You and other self proclaimed level headed posters are the vast minority. Head in sand works for some, I guess.

It's not about being a better fan it's about being a more rational human being. I mean if you want to fly off the handle over a loss then go nuts but don't expect to be taken seriously when you do it. Context is a fun. Your lack of it is not.

What SPUDS is suggesting is that by being more middle ground about how the Bombers are doing is that he's some how a better fan. At least my take. I can't imagine anything more insulting or inaccurate than calling Bomber fans fickle. Imagine how bad attendance would be for this club if it were in Toronto, Hamilton, Montreal, or Calgary? Vancouver? Hell even the ***. If Spuds has any integrity he should retract his comment and apologize.

I'm positive that O'Shea was a bad hire. 3 years experience as a special teams coordinator and then a head coach? Jesus our organization is a clown college

you're right. the bombers track record over the last 24 years suggests this is all really just baseless doom and gloom.

Ryan Dinwiddie

i have to say its really gratifying being on the right side of history so damn often. MOS was a bad hire and watching the rest of the fan base get on board with that train of thought is tragically satisfying. oh, sure, id rather be wrong and enjoy a competently coached team... but that's clearly not in the cards.

Irving thinks we shouldn't blame 24 years on this regime. I agree. No one is saying that however.

O'Shea will be given this year and will be gone by next.

Give me a break. Coaches like to go to winning teams. Full stop. Our team has become a perennial loser, it's no shock that we have tough times getting good coaching.

I didnt mean to use the 3-13 as Cherry Picking to pile on to MOS I just meant to say that in the last 16 games we've lost a lot of football. Fatigue and shell shock sets in for fans.

Aren't we 3 and 13 since going 5-1 to start last season? That's expansion team bad.

True Blue your post is probably the best I've seen here yet Kudos

Nice to see the general public finally souring on our coach. Terrible hire imo.

The world and especially sports cannot be viewed so such a black and white version of the world. There is a plethora of grey area to consider IMO. I guess my larger, over arching point is that this is still a sports league, where championships matter. No championships in 24 years, compounded with a really poor regular season record has left me with almost no fuse left for this team. And it sucks because I recognize that this club has improved and we're 2-2. So what's your point? Jesus, really? My point is that in sports it can easily be black and white when looking at championships. Especially in an 8 team league (for the vast majority of it). You can't possibly be that obtuse can you?

Hard not to agree... if that 2001 team had gotten the job done (they really should have)... we would all be a lot more patient today Losing to BC a few years ago in the Grey Cup wasn't unexpected. But that 2001 fail job is hard to swallow still. Even worse was the Riders Cup loss. We were a much better team and if not for that god damn broken arm we would have won. Of that I have no doubt. Hell, even with that complete loser Dinwiddie in the pocket we nearly won. Says a lot about that team that year and how mediocre the Riders were.

Wouldn't surprise me. Another bad decision by our intrepid coach.

btw Im harping on Willy but dont blame him for the loss as #1 reason #1 Stoddemeyer however its spelled #2 Hiram #3 Willy at the end #4 OShea

Are you really going to rope off the first 5 games of last season? How about the Banjo Bowl, or the other Rider home game with 2 late game killing picks? Drew had a fantastic start to 2014 then he was brutally average or worse. I can rope it off because our offensive line went to complete **** after that. nothing changed. nadda. zilch. Willy won with that offensive line, then, he threw stupid mindless picks and lost a tonne of football with them that same year.

I'm not suggesting Willy is regressing. I'm suggesting that he's simply not a clutch quarterback. Actually that's hardly an assertion. That's just pointing out what can be proven with stats and numbers. I gaurentee a disproportionate number of his interceptions are in the 4th. Also, the dude threw a 10 yard pick to a Stampeder player with no one near him. He only had to make 30 yards or so in 30 seconds. It wasn't a desperate hail mary 70 yard bomb picked off.

Yeah Could be. We may have a better idea by the end of the season. The last minute of the game felt Lapo-like. Could be. We may have a better idea by the end of the season. The last minute of the game felt Lapo-like.We've had too many LaPolice/Rheinbold/Burke moments of late and the scary thing is that Willy sure as spit looks like he is regressing.How does he look like he's regressing? Lmfao. Calgary has one of the best pass defences in the league.. He did rather well did he not?The things people chose to try and claim around here at times..When Willy's game deserted him last year, his biggest failing was his inability to handle blitzes and folding in crunch time. That's pretty much what happened tonight. Uh. I saw him handle the blitz really well up til the last play of the game with the int. not sure what game you were watching. He either tossed it away or dumped it off for small gains.. He also made some great throws in the face of it too. Great retort. Willy was fine until he threw a game killing interception... or didnt call time out on a drive killing penalty. You either have it in the clutch or you dont. Right now, Willy is not a clutch guy. When the pressure is on he gets worse. That's just fact. Will it improve, God I hope so. It's his 2nd year as a starter but hes' going to be 29 in November. He's actually past his prime in football years. Or entering the final stages of it.
