It's an issue with the play calling. It's terrible. Lapo is far worse than Hall at this point in the season. Halls defense deserved to win the last 2 game for sure and I'd argue they did enough in Calgary with any support from the offense.

So we did the defenses job for them.... It's ******* football, sometimes you make the other team stop you. Harris is this offense this year, you take him out all on your own you deserve to lose.

That first pick I blame on Lapolice to be honest, why in gods name, in 2nd and 3 in scoring position do we empty the backfield? Slam Harris up the gut and worst case we kick a field goal. We got a good OL right>? Should be able to pound Harris. He did a lot of that stupid crap today. Like I said, Nichols did some bad things but the game plan didn't give him any help at all.

AFter the last few games whey is hall gone and Lapo a maybe? Hall has been way way better this stretch than Lapo has. Lapo has sucked the life out of the offense and both qbs. He's coaching to not lose which is dragging this team down into the depths of hell, just like he did the last two times we fired him.

Not single handedly though, he had a lot of help ******* that game up. Receivers dropped passes, the game plan was utter **** for both qbs. Why did we take Harris completely out of the game? I put way way more blame on Lapolice for this. He needs to do a better job of giving his qbs a chance.

O'shea is a good coach hate to lose him. Lapolice can GTFO any time though.

Wolitarsky and peterman only receivers doing anything today.

Lapo is doing no one any favors. He is not a good play caller at all and never has been.

Can we put the blame on lapo yet?

Well I don't like the early drops which hurt confidence and I don't like the game plan which isn't helping a struggling QB at all either.

Not Nichols alone, but the pressure is in his head now and for his own good and the good of the team he needs to sit right now.

That one was all Nichols. That's a dumb dumb play.

That pick 6 should have been a hand off up the gut not the bullshit lapo is calling.

Bitching about Nichols, how about all the drops he's had and the dumb assed 2nd and 3 play calls?

Obvious answer is Flanders won't be a di and then he can sub for Harris no problems

God Burris is just awful to listen to.

Because we still have to have a backup qb on the roster so it's 70K on top of a full roster of salaries. This is a team that is spending quite a bit on salary and unlike the Riders our GM attempts to stay under the cap so as not to incur fines.

Lapo hasn't changed at all as an offensive coordinator. Still the same stuff he was doing here in 2002 except he doesn't have Stegall, Bruce and Jones to make the deep shots work.

Yeah but mike Kelly was OC back then too right? Hell we had that huge rushing game with Kelly in 09 vs. Bc but the guy was still clueless on team building and did damage to the team that is only now being repaired.

Murphy who has been associated with so many gong shows? No thanks. Hufnagel kept him in line hut with Kelly and Jones he was as disastrous as them. There is a reason that guy hasn't been given the keys to a franchise.

It's clear the reason why the Riders are on this little run, Duron Carter is a ******* cancer and removing him improved the teams fortunes.

Oh god if we do lose our minds and fire MOS it better not be Lapo again. I have no desire to see a team playing just well enough to lose again.

Walters specifically said that the logic behind Gray was avoiding paying a big first round salary at this time and using it as a futures pick so not sure we can judge it against anyone currently playing. Overall I am happy with Walters drafting. In any draft you can go back and nit pick this guy over that guy but when I look at how the Canadian depth has improved on this team I give Walters a good grade. Now about the American scouting....

He got the beetus
