Rod Black Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Because of the coach willing to make a change to the kicker, the kicker doing what he was suppose to do when he was suppose to do it, we are in a much better position for a playoff spot than we were one day ago. That was a terrific game to watch! rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueandgoldguy Posted October 11, 2015 Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Schizophrenic fanbase? Some posters here need to get out of the Bomber bubble and visit a few other fan sites.

Yup but... every one of them went right down the middle. And I'm still blaming Liram for the loss against Calgary - I bet Castillo nails that 49 yard field goal 90% of the time min. Liram has missed 6 or 7 extra points this year from 32 yards out. Not sure on your point aalgernon but 5 for 5 is 5 for 5 - Liram can't even kick 5 XP's in a row.

Fatty Liver Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Good game for him. Will wait to see what he does outdoors before crowning him a saviour. I think it would be wise to finish the season with both of them on the roster and let Lirim's contract negotiations determine how the Bombers approach next season.

Dragon37 Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 That would be the best thing to do. It will be an interesting next few games in the kicking department. As an aside, I have to wonder if depending on Lirim to do both punting and pk hurt his pk game? He was originally brought here for hid pk not punting maybe it finally caught up with him?

SPuDS Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 So funny because we said the same things about Lirim last year. Hilarious. Love this fan base.One game lol. Granted a fantastic one game, but still...ONE GAME. May Mike Kelly's quote of a schizophrenic fan base live in infamy. Anyone remember Rob Pikula's game with us when Westwood got hurt? What happened after... Why take anything with a grain of salt lol. Jump in with both feet. Sergio for president/ceo/gm/hc/oc/dc and emporor! Like I'm not trying to be a rooster (the alternative was understandably censored) contrary to what most people may want to believe. If it so happens Castillo turns out to be our kicker for the next 5-7 years, perhaps longer, fantastic. That being said I'm not going to proclaim him to be a kicking savior off of one game. You can make a very, very long list of athletes, football or otherwise that have had one solid game, or one solid debut, and accomplished a whole lot of nothing afterwards. Just a general observation, he seems to have quite the routine that he goes through from the moment he steps on the field, to the moment the ball is kicked. Rather interesting I thought. Yup. Hear ya 100% and agree. Gotta be realistic as many kickers have played lights out for brief periods. His routine tho is what I think will keep him on point, very old school style of setting up and positioning himself. Other kickers who used to use that technique were often successful because it keeps your mechanics on track imo. Mr. Perfect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read somewhere he won an award for best kicker in the country (maybe county lol i sped read it) during one season as well. Country would be quite the feat! (Foot?)

Rest of the season will probably tell the tale. Im assuming he wasnt a dual purpose kicker before and his mechanics got skewed by that and the new pat. Maybe another off-season of kicking strength and conditioning will right the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I've thought all along that Lirim had played better when he's only had one dutie to worry about... his place kicking was much better when Renaud was punting last year... this game appeared to be his best punting on the season...

My point is just that we shouldn't be proclaiming him our special teams saviour just yet. He had a good game - but we're going to need a larger sample than that to determine how good of a kicker he is in the long run. I'm glad he played well, don't get me wrong... I just think it would be silly to jump the gun on anything. I myself am cautiously optimistic. And yes, it's nice to see a kicker who doesn't seem to have the same mental blockage around PATs that Lirim has. WBBFanWest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
