As presently constituted, this team is simply not good enough in most areas. Streveler is doing all that he can be expected to do, but poor coaching and a porous defence are enough to sabotage playoffs hopes.

we scored enough points to win....Calgary's defense isn't setting the world on fire today either...rushing 3 didn't work every time we did it, and yet we continued with that and our soft secondary coverages. I'm blaming the coaching staff on defense for this

Cheering for Collaros to start. The last thing I want to hear right now. I want hope. Collaros gives me no hope. 

Well, I was serious. If Streveler can't go he needs a start before the playoffs. He has playoff experience and that a,ways means something. 

Besides, the CFL is always someone coming back to redeem themselves. Why not him?

2 nice defensive plays tonight but the D had a game to forget  line play was terrible, Bighill has forgotten how to play, and db's can't continue to be in a different time zone when covering receivers, I don't care if it's zone or man guys can't be left that open.

don't agree about biggie, but the rest I'm totally with you

I don't know how much confidence we should have in meeting the Riders in the WSF.

why? If Stamps get first in the west... the riders host the WSF- we would play them in the WSF.

Ppl think Collaros would survive a half of football with this oline? Lol

Other than Nickthesizz no one hates Streveler. He has lots of heart & yes, he's a warrior. But I don't want a warrior at qb. I want a qb that can read a defense & throw the ball with success. Someone who actually gives us a chance to win.

If you can’t convert 2/3 two point converts, you deserve to lose. To not even attempt them is straight up cowardice. Totally different end of the game if they’re within three points. 

Football strategy is hard for our team.

MBT is not the saviour dude. Argos blow and hes a big reason why. 

Doesn't have to be a "saviour". Entire rationale of trade, supposedly, was an experienced QB for various circumstances, situations. That precisely happened tonight  OShea had no answer.

He has the mechanics of a 6th grader

And Mcguire went in. 

Trying times as we reach almost 30 years of not hoisting the cup.

The guy the entire organization has 0.0% confidence in.

I think at that point it wasn't any more of a risky move putting McGuire in than it was keeping Streveler in. There was nothing to lose as it was clear we wouldn't score with Streveler anyway. 

Guys .. you should know by now I don’t step in often (I let you sort things out amongst yourselves for the most part) but I’ll ask that we *try* to keep discussion on the game / team and away from each other.

I know it’s hard, I’m as frustrated as anyone, but your help here would be greatly appreciated.

Garbage. TOR said everyone was available. Brain trust went with the semi invalid Collaros so howd  that work out?

Don't know yet, need to see how the playoffs go.

I don’t think the Oline is a major problem for them.

They have not been great since neuf took over for grey. Lost that meanness.

They have struggled quite a bit since Neufeld took over for Grey

I don’t think the online is as good without grey, but not sure if I would call it struggling. Also don’t think putting grey in wins this game lol

Yeah,I'm damned well tired of it. This has gone past the point of acceptability. Our passing offense is an abysmal failure. An embarrassment. Absolutely freaking useless. This is why fans will be demanding cpoaching changes this offseason because next season won't be any better. I'm so ******* pissed off. Something has to give. Get us a qb who can throw the ball proficiently so we can have some semblance of a passing game. Not this high school **** we watch now. 

Masoli or Arbuckle would look mighty fine here.

This is the first time I've felt total hopelessness for this team since 2014. Thanks for sucking the life out of me as a fan, Mike O'Shea. This coaching staff is way overrated. Please leave & go to Toronto in 3 weeks. Take LaPo & Hall with you. FFS.
