September 22, 20186 yr comment_357192 We didn't play bad but we didn't play well. This defense is good. I still think they are overlooked because so much of the focus is on the offense. I still think Nichols is limiting our offense but he was at least managing the game well tonight.

Long-term injuries to those three will give the Bombers the perfect excuse to bring back all the coaches next season. Dang never thought of that - Now you will keep me up all night worrying about having to see the entire collection back next year!

IMO the glaring issues is Nichols , Randle and that soft Zone we run. Bowman was wide open all night by design which was stupid. How many TD's did the Als score? How many big plays did they have? The Bombers should have scored a TD by that D scheme you say is stupid and had a big INT by Sayles. The scheme isn't the problem. The problem are bad reads and some guys who are horrible fits for their positions, like Loffler. And these problems aren't even big problems. The biggest problem our defense has had on the whole for this season is having to play behind an offense that can go quarters without putting 2-3 first downs together on the same drive, let alone scoring points.

September 22, 20186 yr comment_357203 Walters will have to bring in an international receiver to put some pressure on Adams then. Just use his vast network of contacts from down south.

September 22, 20186 yr comment_357206 Jets game going on.,,,yeah, it's pre-season but I'm sure there were 13 - 14,000 people there. Many have lost faith in the Bombers this season. I can't blame them. No surprise there was less than 20,000 at the game.

Been that way ever since he got here. He's not an elite receiver. He'd be the number 3 receiver on most teams. He is supposed to be our best & deep threat. He's not either.

September 22, 20186 yr comment_357209 Bottom line is, you have to think that Streveler wins that game too. O’Shea puts Nichols in that spot, he wins and now I don’t see a situation where he loses his job the rest of the year.
September 22, 20186 yr comment_357210 I think Demski (when healthy) needs to become the primary deep threat for this team.

IMO the glaring issues is Nichols , Randle and that soft Zone we run. Bowman was wide open all night by design which was stupid. O-line had a great game D-line had a great game Thompkins is the real deal, Wolitarsky the same. We had a few bad drops but for the most part those misses were all on Nichols. Nichols is still shell shocked... that bad sack on the first drive he gave up and several questionable decisions. I can see why he's trying to be the next Buck Pierce going head first.... but he's moving waaaaaay slower then Buck ever did. The score flattered Manziel big time. So many wobblers and he had two pick 6's that didn't go through and the fumble in the end zone. If he didn't have the lucky breaks tonight this game would of been a big time blow out. Manziel can at times have a rocket arm and other times throw the worst Russ Michna passes ever. I don't see him in this league after this season. Refs actually called a good game for once. At the end of the game when the camera panned to Nichols and Streveler walking down the sidelines after the TD... the boys were smiling and energetic with Streveler and very ho-hum with Matty.... What I noticed ... place was half empty. Nichols still has no accuracy and his receivers made a ton of tough catches for him. O'Shea completely deer-in-the-headlights after his failed challenge and the quick subsequent Montreal TD. I think he thought he had blown it ... again. It might be good he was wearing brown shorts in case he had soiled them. Terrible half time adjustments again. The Bombers had better not complain about officiating for a while. They were very good to us tonight. Matt's interview with Sarah in which he talked about the playoffs and getting hot and winning the cup. Maybe just a little premature.
