  1. Unfortunately, I'm sure Booch can attest that there are a lot of coaches out there from the pro level down to pee wee & bantam that run their offense no matter what. They may know their system cold & it may be a great offense but as you say it depends upon finding the right players to fit what they run. If they do, they win championships. If they don't they lose. But they're stubborn & will run the same system even if the key players don't fit. The result is usually a disaster. The great coaches are the ones that tailor their offense to the players they have. They know what it takes to win. You don't put a Volkswagen Jetta in the Indy 500. Why make a qb who can run into a pocket passer? Why make a pocket passer into a scrambler?
  2. Well, our guy has a different offense & he ain't changing. Frustrating as hell.
  3. We'll never win a damned thing with our 2 coordinators. They've had years to get this right. Forget continuity. It's overrated. Get new O & D coordinators after this season.
  4. Goalie is not talking about that. He's talking about the lack of passing game that every team seems to have but us. We can't throw the damned ball.
  5. That Levi's commercial is back. Of course, we see it 30 times.
  6. "If we can get one more impact receiver"... to do what? Waste salary cap money? This is LaPo's craptacular offense. Even Derrell Walker wouldn't be a thousand yard receiver with our garbage passing game.
  7. That was brutal. That guy on the sidelines broke his leg.
  8. The Eskimos had other issues in that locker room last season from all reports I read. Do you remember Reilly's last game vs the Bombers last year? He wanted out so badly & he showed it with his demeanour & body language. It was a pathetic display for a so called team leader. Could he have made it less obvious he didn't want to play there? That's why I have zero sympathy for Reilly getting beat up & losing in BC. And then, is Jason Maas a Grey Cup coach? I have my doubts.
  9. Man, TSN sure pumps Duane Forde's playing days. He was a freaking blocking fullback. That's all he did. Or line up as a TE on punts.
  10. Things gotta change, JBR but they won't until the team or LaPo does himself. I just can't see our O as sustainable long term especially with Streveler.
  11. Throw it deep & let Walker go get it. That's his style of play & it's something we don't do. Walker would be very, very, very unhappy playing in our offense. We don't key on one or two players to make big plays. My expectations for the passing game has really fallen. Even if we signed the best deep ball receiver in the CFL, I wouldn't get excited because LaPo would find some way to **** it up. He'd turn a 1,500 yard receiver into a 700 yard receiver. Everyone made a big deal about Darvin Adams coming back. How many yards did he get? How many times was he targeted??
  12. Watching Derrell Walker lighting up the Ti Cats secondary. How neutered would he be if he played for us because of LaPo? How bad would he look in our offense? My concern is that we are now the 9th choice among CFL elite receivers to sign here. Why would any elite receiver want to play for us? This is a serious problem but our HC just can't see it.
  13. The ability to throw the ball just doesn't magically appear. It takes years to become an accomplished passer & it always shows in college before the pros. You either can throw or you can't. I just know our passing game looks like no other CFL team even with Nichols playing. It goes full on alien with Streveler throwing.
  14. They were both going at it pretty good.
  15. Ha ha. Lapo actually do that? It is to laugh. Pretty obvious it won't happen.
  16. How does Simoni Lawrence get away with the **** he pulls on the field? He should be on every refs list of the first guy to be tossed. Too much extra curricular stuff goes on with him.
  17. Or LaPo. But we know O'Shea will want them both back next season. Some things never change. I'm beginning to feel like a Bengals fan. How long was Marvin Lewis their HC with Hue Jackson the OC? No matter how bad, they never lost their jobs. It was like being in the Twilight Zone for those poor fans. Not saying MOS should be fired but how long will Hall & LaPo stay here?
  18. I don't know how the rest of you feel but I'm getting tired of seeing LaPo call plays that aren't working over & over. Going away from what is working & then during the game we all wonder why? Not using our guys strengths. Fitting square pegs in a round hole. Having Streveler run Nichols offense. Instead of drop backs why didn't we use RPO? My worry is the Bombers will give him a new contract this off season.
