While we don't know for sure if the fault lies with LaPolice or Nichols, the evidence sure seems to indicate that the problem is Nichols.

Evans just threw a ball 20 yards in thr air. Amazing.

Matthews had a TD. Darvin is hurt. Our QB sucks

That's legitimately all he did. Was a decent play but nothing special. Matthew's wants to be a game changer,  he better step up....he can go watch Walkers film for a lesson.

I hate to rag on Harris cuz he had a monster game....but that first half fumble really turned the tide.   We had a chance to step on their throats and it kept them in the game.    So infuriating the defence was.   Bighill looked lost.

Decades of evidence suggest otherwise. This is not new with Lapo.

Though I'm not getting Nichols off the hook either.

Nichols never really tried Matthews often tho. Once prior? 

Receivers aren't gonna put up big yards if your QB is using his outlet (Harris Demski Lucky) all game. 21 of 31. 169.

It was Nichols who made all those crappy tosses from the outset of the game. It was Nichols with the happy feet and panic reads.

Did we just become the laughing stock of the CFL? 

 

Yes. now I know what a Leaf fan feels like.

I agree. But he had at least 2 drops. Good/leading receivers get open. And nichols needs to force it to him as well. Let the big man go get it.

This game was not one or the other. It was both.

I dunno man. U think lapo called like 19 outlet passes?

Its not the calls, it's the overall strategy. Protect the ball no matter what. Never take the chances.

Are you telling me you've never seen a game like this from a Lapo led offense? It's his calling card. Nichols didnt help. But Lapo is who he is. Nichols just makes it even worse.

Was looking forward to a clown pounding tonight but instead we got clowned, funny the Argo's won by a point that Forde thought was a mistake when the punt went into the end zone instead of kicking it inside the ten

It's like a toxic relationship that devolves into mutual destruction.

The boo-birds at IGF will be primed to sing next Friday night as soon as Nichols stutters against the Stamps.  He made his own bed and now he's going to have to lie in it, I expect he'll  go into full nuclear melt-down once the fans get after him.

Terrific coaching adjustments at the half, as well

And O'Shea will continue to wet-nurse Nichols until its too late.

Are you listening to cjob right now...... Irving is wet nursing MOS an Nichols at the same time....

 

Bob is gonna run out of lipstick

Is anyone asking why O'Shea didn't challenge the terrible 3rd down/fumble spot?

God help us, Fajardo looks way better than Nichols

On pace for 450 yards against a Hamilton defence that made Nichols look like Alex Brink. Fajardo has 25 more yards at the half than Nichols threw all game.

Well as long as the media and coaching staff are happy we got nothing to worry about, until we do, of course it will be to late then.

On the cjob pre game show Irving and Tait talked about how crazy MBT sounded in the interview they did..... and just now during the call in part after the game Irving says MBT played "out of his mind" tonight....... 

Crashing back to earth now....better be some serious corrections next game or the faithful of this team will lose all of that great optimism this team started out with....We know this team has better talent than what is being shown...Better find ourselves quick because a third loss in a row will have to result in a major change....Just what that will be is anyone's guess...A team that is going into a 29 yr drought Cup wise....better not see any kind of regression this team has shown in the last 2 games...All kinds of fears rearing their ugly head will certainly come to the fore
