Fajardo playing in cold weather with wind..... even at home in Saskatchewan... I don't see him doing well in that situation.

He also completely disregarded the fact that Alford dropped a sure fire pick 6 on our side in that game as well.

That guy always seemed to bull doze his way for 5 - 10 yards on every carry. Nothing to fancy but he always seemed to make a gain.

Fixed that for you

The best part was Suitor talking about how had Grymes made that interception against us how it may of changed the end result of that game. The very next play Hamilton drops a bomb with Grymes completely out of position

No because that's absolutely ridiculous and childish and completely immature.

I watched both games, it's unfortunate that Ottawa doesn't have a half decent offense because the defense isn't all that bad. Edmonton has the worst secondary in the league... how many 20 - 40 yard passes did Masoli throw to guys who were wide open tonight?

Is it possible that he kept quiet because of shame? Is it possible that he is speaking up now because he wants a nice fat pay day and a book deal? Lots of people speculating and throwing stones without having a clue and believing everything that they read off the internet. That goes for both sides.

Unless his arm recovers over the off season he's done. He has had time in the pocket and wide open receivers... he's stepped up the make the throw and the result more times then not is a lame duck. It's not as bad as Khari when he was done but almost at that point. Reilly TD - 10 Int - 4 BLM TD - 7 Int - 13

Reilly isn't done.... he's just playing on a team with zero defense and zero run game. Physically the guy still can get it done. BLM is done... he has talent and protection but just cannot make the same throws that he used to.

In 2018 it was very obvious that it was Nichols because Strev would come in and throw darts 10 - 20 yards down field and suddenly the receivers were seeing balls come towards them and making plays and the team could go vertical. 2019 was more of the same... we had receivers running routes but if the first read wasn't wide open he immediately went to the checkdown. You rarely if never saw him extend plays and/or make plays on the run. This is why in the play offs people went crazy for Zach because he would scramble and buy some time and then throw the ball to whoever was open regardless if it was a designed play.

I do want to remind everyone on how much more the offense opened up during LaPo's tenure when they had Streveler and Collaros playing. I think A LOT of the issues was Nichols being terrified of holding the ball and making more then one read and then safety valve dump off. Lapo's issues more so were trying to be to cute at many times throughout the game and also being to cute with Streveler in his 2nd season playing with us.

Is it possible that Desjardins is one of the bigger names that leak info to 3downnation? Maybe that's why they slant more of the negatives towards LaPo?

If we are to believe Desjardins. I'm 50/50 if he's telling the truth or throwing others under the bus for his incompetence.

Buck Pierce is doing a better job IMO at play calls then LaPo. That being said he's coaching a team full of all stars while LaPolice is coaching a team of left overs. Not an apples to apples comparison. Had Buck Pierce left Winnipeg to run the Ottawa offense with that talent... he more then likely would of also been fired by the end of the year. Not even the greatest of coaches could win with Matt Nichols and that group of cast offs. Had LaPolice stayed in Winnipeg he would have much more success then what he currently is experiencing (remind me the win/loss record of LaPo coaching Collaros and which games they won in 2019). TLDR - Buck Pierce is much better, LaPo dug his own grave by hitching his wagon to D level players in Ottawa, we can all agree that Nichols sucks and shouldn't of even been playing in 2019 or 2021, thank god we have moved on and have a real QB and are not running some weird offense.

I kept it short and simple

LaPolice should get canned in the off season and Ottawa needs to start off fresh. LaPolice can replace Barker on the TSN panel.

Saskatchewan had the 2nd best run defense (next to us) in 2019. They also had a top 3 pass defense. Those numbers I posted were the only 2 games Augustine started , so tell me once again why this guy is a bum based on how much he produced on the amount of carries he was given? This was also in an offense in which we had zero passing attack at the time (unlike this season).

https://3downnation.com/2021/10/26/during-his-time-in-ottawa-lazy-narratives-emerged-about-former-redblacks-gm-marcel-desjardins/ I'm pretty sure this was already posted but 3downnation really throwing all the blame on LaPo for this season.

Arbuckle must really be a dink if nobody wants to keep him around.

I can't wait until they make the all star roster and leave out obvious Bombers that should be on the team.

09-01 12 SSK 12 98 0 8.2 55 09-07 13 SSK 16 75 0 4.7 12 He played 2 games in 2019 against Saskatchewan and IMO those are decent numbers.

LOL

Something something something Augustine can't block based on one person on the forum watching one play where he missed a block something something something
