Well Greg Carr was alright too, before he bailed in free agency.
-
Edmonton got to negotiate with Reilly before trading Winnipeg didn't, that should tell you everything you need to know about the chances of actually getting him back then.
-
Totally agree with that. Lapo thinks the deep ball is a race downfield. But guys like Duke Williams aren't burners, just guys who can win battles and get separation. And lapo is the fit coaching receivers. He just be a hell of an interview because he continually displays the same problems with his offense even 16 years after we first gave him a shot.

Fogg in game 1 just before "halftime" at very least.
-
That is odd criteria. Comebacks don't have to happen on the last drive. Fact is that this team was in a lot of holes last year and the year before that they had to dig themselves out of.
-
So you say they ruined WIlly, but don't give pause and think perhaps they're doing the same to NIchols?
-
I said it before, that line is tired and untrue. It's not realism, it's just a different sort of bias.
-
Oh they came back a bunch, had to when the D started off games the way they did so many times last year and the year before.
-
y'all need to stop being such negatrons, be positive, it won't kill you.
-
Yeah but we get this sorry assed Montreal team next week so who cares?
-
-
Do we need one though? Fogg is fine as a punt returner and I don't think we suffer too greatly on kick returns. A returner to me is a luxury item that isn't a high priority to acquire. receivers are much more important right now.
-
Because this team telegraphs what it's going to do. It's a tradition with Lapolice.
-
How often does Nichols miss open targets? Honest question.
-
I actually don't think it's an injury with Nichols, I think it's Harris and Dressler more than anything else. It's no secret that those two guys are tailor made for the offense that Lapolice likes to run, and they have put some hard hard miles on Harris' body this year. I suspect that he is hurting but soldiering through it because that's the kind of player he is, and with Dressler out that's one less crutch in the offense. Lapolice of course has never been good at adjusting and adapting so without those guys being at 100% the offense is faltering, especially when teams know that taking away Harris is priorities 1-6 in their defensive game plan.
-
There are only like 4 head referees in the cfl, of course you will know their names. You hear them every week.
-
And if we are talking about Dressler, well the offense fell apart when he went out so.....
-
Toronto last year probably counts, Wilder Jr. did a lot of work for that team late in the year.
-
Considering where this regime has brought us to, yes I do think we can give them more rope.

I do, Etch and Bellefool were not the first choices for anyone, but people didn't sign in Winnipeg, it was a place notorious for not giving coaches a chance so they were the best we could get. People just desperate to have a job. Next time around there was a lot of pressure to hire guys with a lot more experience, including that head coaching experience because the teams record was awful and there was a lot of talk that if things didn't improve a guy like Lapolice would be next in line to be head coach. The next time Mike O'Shea hires coordinators he won't have any of those handicaps. I want to see what the guy does hiring people he truly believes in rather than hiring whatever he can get or simply looking for experienced faces.
-
No see I don't want to fire Walters either. I want him to improve the teams american recruitment, and I want O'Shea to improve his coordinators. You can do both without firing everyone. But again, angry people want heads to roll to soothe their anger. Walters and O'Shea both bring valuable things to this team, why do you people ignore those?
-
If you are arguing that the edmonton passing game is better than Winnipegs OK, but why you leaving out the rushing numbers? Even so it seems that things are much closer than you are making it seem... 1.3 PPG difference, that's even with the massive, massive slump the Bombers have been in the last month, 4 TDs different, seems to me we got a comparable offense.
-
And I have said that O'Shea ultimately wears the coordinators failings, but I also say that there were other factors going in and am willing to over look that and give him another chance because of the good things he does do for the team. Things are never as black and white as some people like to make them seem.

Probably thinks Puerto Ricans are mexicans and heaps of deads ones is a good thing.
