Nevertheless we lost when we could have won, and thank goodness EDM cut Castillo loose Yeah, and the kick was blocked because he missed it. rightbackatcha you with the yada yada yada. 🙂 Fully agreed that we can be thankful we have Castillo now. Even though O’Shea had to bring Leggs back to training camp to save face with all he said about him in 2022; which, let’s face it, was a waste of everyone’s time.

The only ones I was more irritated with at that time was the bomber brass. Why they went out and got Medlock after the Lirum 2015 season and then went out and got Castillo after realizing Leggio was pooping the bed in 2021 yet decide to stick with him in 2022…?? this after openly saying that both Medlock and Castillo we’re worth it because you cannot afford to be without a reliable kicker and hope to win a championship. They knew this! They acted on it twice before! So, I am sorry my friends, MOS is the bomb in a lot of ways. But this weird loyalty thing really gets in the way sometimes. O’Shea still has to wear our failure to three peat in a significant way. Explain to me why O’Shea is to blame for Castillo signing as a free agent with Edmonton and being given only Liegghio and Mourtada as options at camp. Those are contract decisions and that falls squarely on Walters.

I mostly agree with you but you’re missing an extremely important point… bombers didn’t just say “no thanks” to Castillo after the ‘21 season… Edm offered him a boatload of money and it was completely understandable he would take it and we wouldn’t match… that said, a bunch of American kickers in ‘22 camp probably would’ve been a good idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 Ford hasn't put together one TD vs zone coverage. Rush 3, have the strong side end spy and follow Ford, be ready to cut him off if he runs and get hands up. Play classic cover 2 behind that, two deep safeties. He can't get the ball through those windows and you're ready for the deep shots too. Wanna-B-Fanboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, everyone makes decisions and prioritizes what they prioritize. The bombers put the priority elsewhere and gambled that Leggio would be ready. This despite that he has always looked like he has the yips big time every time he lines up to kick. Ultimately, we gambled and we lost. Yes, agreed again- absolutely should’ve been a very vigourous competition in training camp in 22 like there was this year. Bottom line for me, is that I think there were plenty of signs to suggest we shouldn’t put all our eggs in the leggio basket. At the time it appeared reasonable not to focus on retaining Castillo for the reasons you suggest – but then the bombers needed to look elsewhere rather than turn back to legs given his performance in 21. that said, what’s done is done. I will move on from my griping though I do need to briefly reply to one other post! 🙂 Edited August 18, 2023 by deepsixemtoboyd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are contract decisions and that falls squarely on Walters. Your comment suggests that you believe that O’Shea had nothing to do with the decision to only bring Leggio and Mourtada back to camp in ‘22. In other words, that that decision was 100% on Walters? Given the tightness between those two gentlemen and the degree to which the GM respects the head coach , I think it is extremely doubtful that the coach didn’t tell the GM that he was satisfied with bringing those 2 back to camp and rolling with one of them. They clearly make those sorts of decisions together. That then is my explanation to your question: I am assuming they made the decision together not to pursue options other than Leggs. And this is the way in which O’Shea shares at least 50% responsibility for the decision. K, it’s official… I’m done complaining now.
