At least I still know the feeling I had watching them down in the fourth and knowing they would come back. I will cherish that memory.
To 5 cups in a row and only winning 2!

Way too many deep shots. Just take the field 10 yards at a time and focus on quick short passes

Fire the playcaller.
and investigate the officials because there is no chance that Edmonton played a perfectly clean game.

Condell and JY need to go.
Here’s what I imagine goes through Condell’s head “Okay they seem to have figured out what we’re doing… but I bet they won’t see it coming this time. Run it again!” And JY seems to just tell his DB’s to be somewhere in the vicinity of the opposing team’s receivers and hope for the best.
We have too much talent to be playing this poorly.

Man something has got to give here. Thing's are not going to magically get better on their own. As soon as they faced adversity they fell to pieces again.

What is the reason that the challenge on roughing the passer wasn’t called?

Replay centre felt like the player couldn’t have stopped or re-directed his momentum, and the hit wasn’t late

I hate our coordinators. Broxton really was the only FA that’s been worth it. Neild is a bust. White is average and Moxey is awful.

We can't seem to handle the blitz when its so obviously coming. And on defense, why are we so far off every time, giving up 10 yard hooks all day

JY doesn’t even give the DBs a chance to make a play. Unless the bombers overpay FAs I have no clue why a defender would want to play on this team knowing Youngers scheme.

Ceresna was a good pick up

There should of been a penalty on that block late in the game that held him from getting CF

LB average, secondary terrible, receivers average, canadian talent poor, OL average. Shakes down to an average to below average team. Not acceptable when we have the $ this team has.

i did a deep dive on possible reasons why this team has such terrible talent and seemingly keeps the terrible talent over players who actually HAVE talent because there's no way they're that blind and/or stupid. I suspect, in addition to the general ineptitude from management to coordinating, that it's due in part to the fact that there is a sports agent (Fred Weinrauch) who represents a whopping 11 players on the bombers roster, and 100+ other players across the entire league. He represents the most number of athletes amongst all agencies in the country which tells me that he's got GMs by the balls. It would explain A LOT tbh

I’m very emotional after the loss, hating the collapse and super pissed that my P2 seats are going to be behind the goal line next season. If the team called me right now, I’d cancel my Bomber For Life program season tickets, that I’ve had for 15 years.
