Looks like Higgins lost the locker room from what was being said on TSN. The benching of Bowman really upset the veterans  & making Calvillo the receivers coach instead of the qb coach meaning the young qbs had no position coach despite AC's nearly 20 years as a player in the CFL didn't seem to sit well with a lot of players on the team or Jim Popp as it made no sense.

    Firing MOS for Higgins is literally the dumbest thing we, as an organization, could do. Firing MOS for just about anyone would be pretty dumb...

    What did Higgins do to deserve that? Oh yeah, the Als beat BC in Vancouver for the first time since 2001 last night. Popp wanted to be the HC. Remember he almost quit on Wettenhall 2 years ago when he

Coaches make mistakes that sometimes cost them their jobs. I wonder how long O'Shea would last under Popp.

With their team not long. He has more rope here with Walters. At least until season's end. The next 10 games  may tell his future.

Montreal's D won that game.  Marsh looked extremely limited.  Montreal's running a high school offense.  Will be interesting to see if they allow Marsh to throw downfield at all or try to continue with it, because teams will be defending them differently after the last couple games.  I don't think you can run the same option play, screen pass to the back, screen pass to the boundary wideout every week and have much offensive success.
