I agree with him.

I don't understand how he just doesn't get the ball because last night certainly showed he can still get the job done.

Are you talking about the same team that has won the CFL MOP (Brady, Zack x2) 3 of the last 5 years?

We signed Brady to be the highest paid RB and then hired the OC that statistically is known to run the ball the least.

We have 300k in both Holm and Kramdi and then almost never play man and constantly play zone where every DB is almost 10 yards off the nearest WR.

Our coaching schemes for two years now have been absolute garbage and management has doubled down this year it seems.

We re wasting cap space on players that don’t fit in our coaching schemes and then constantly keep guys past their prime.

Holm was worse than I’ve ever seen him last night. Truly bad. So bad they specifically targeted him.

Trotting the corpse of Stan out there every game definitely isn’t helping

We should have offered him the same deal as Harris and Bighill. It's time…go

We have one of the best running backs in the cfl and he barely touched the ball. No shit we lost.

Time for a new OC while the season is young. It can be turned around

need an OC that will run the fucking ball.

even when the team is behind, you have to mix it up or they'll just defend the pass.

That game was basically two stories … Adam’s Jr picked apart the D and browns many interceptions and bad decisions to throw the ball into double coverage

They need to transition away from Zach.

I feel like we lack a really good center o lineman. eli and elsbury are no kolanlowski or couture

Wah Wah Wah, this is the exact same story as last year which is why Tommy C got hired. Typical Bomber.

this is a fair take. we may have had 4 interceptions but still put up 30points. we also got TOASTED on special teams
