So your issue was that I thought he wasn’t worth 400k?

Glad I burnt that game from my memory. Lapo to me is an offensive co-ordinator and should never be a head coach again. He needs to be singularly focused or his offense will suffer. But man did the team go down hill after he was fired.
-
The Dinwiddie game?
-
What happened to the offences Lapo coached after he was fired? Did they go up or down?
-
We started playing not to lose after losing 4 games in a row off of stupid turnovers. I’m not happy either with the game plan in the Calgary game. You had to go aggressive like the Eagles vs Patriots. I just think that Lapo overall has got a lot out of the talent he’s been given. Nichols was the third string qb in Edmonton when we picked him up. Our receiving core is filled with castoffs or guys that weren’t doing a whole lot before they signed here like Demski and Adams. He’s done a good job overall on maximizing the points this collection of castoffs can produce.
-
Yeah because if you were in charge you would be able to force Mike Reilly to sign in Winnipeg. As much as we need better quarterbacking it’s not realistic to think a better qb will be available to Winnipeg.
-
Lapo is not the problem. We just need better receivers. I wouldn't be apposed to replacing Nichols with Jennings as well.. At least he's got some mobility and would be cheaper while we wait for Streveler to be ready.
-
Locking up Medlock is important. He's worth the money. With all the poor kicking in the NFL right now and Brett Maher (an average CFL kicker) working out with the Cowboys I think you're going to see a trend of CFL kickers going south of the line. Kickers are going to be hard to come by when a Long and possibly others exiting the league. Let's lock of Medlock and not take chances with that position. There are plenty of other areas where we can save money. Leggett, Wild, Okpalaugo, Nevis, Fenner, Nichols pay cut all come to mind before I would miss with our kicking.
-
So much for going with 4 Canadian starters next season.
-
I didn’t realize. Hope he recovers from it.
-
We need to go hard after Kamar Jordan or Devaris Daniels. And also pick up another up and comer with experience. Like a Begalton or such. One receiver isn’t going to do it and you need to have depth.
-
Honestly though... defence was not the issue. Winnipeg’s major area of concern is with the passing game. Try and maintain what we had elsewhere and improve the passing game and we will be fine. I don’t see us getting our hands on a better combo than we already have so we need to focus heavily on upgrading our receiving core.
-
I would imagine there will be plenty of receivers on the market this offseason. Calgary has recently signed Chris Matthews and Markeeth Ambles has really come into his own. I haven't seen Calgary's free agent list but no doubt they are going to have to let a couple receivers go. We just need one of them.
-
That's gonna help.. But we need an elite import slotback as well..
-
I would imagine that if Loffler leaves town that we might change our ratio. We could look at starting a Canadian on the defensive line instead. Depends I guess on what we pick up with our 3rd and 6th overall picks.
-
In regards to Weston Dressler and Moe Leggett. It’s just that father time is undefeated.
-
I’m not convinced Lapo gets a head coaching gig. I think Claybrooks goes to Toronto and Ed Hervey has a history of hiring first time head coaches.- 420 replies

He needs to take a pay cut if he’s making that. If not then we gotta move on from him. Pick up a cheaper vet to compete with Streveler and give Strev an increase and extension.

If somebody like Reilly is available you go after him. But ultimately we have to stick with what we have at qb. Either Nichols or Steveler. This team has a bright future with the new leagues coming in. The cfl will weight more heavily towards Canadian talent and Winnipeg leads the league in this area and will only get better with two first round picks including 3rd overall.

Don’t see there being major changes. They took the next step and won a playoff game. They need to trim some of the fat and upgrade at receiver.
-
According to Bob Irving Kembrell Tompkins is out and Charles Nelson is in. I don't think it's injury related. Charles Nelson looked really promising in the Edmonton game. More upside and can improve the kick return game immediately. I still see Thompkins as an option next year if Dressler retires but at 30 perhaps he needed to show more than he did. I'm a believer that in a post-AAF world the CFL will have to stick with Import players for longer and let them develop rather than having the constant turnstile of imports coming in and going out.
-
Not too worried about Sayles. He matches up against the opposing teams best receiver and held his own. As a unit they gave up 100 passing yards.
-
Based on my research there would still have been less than a 3% chance of success on a hail mary when scrimmaging from the bombers 49 yard line.
-
The hit to the head should have been called but I don’t see it as an impact on the result. It would have still come down to a highly improbable Hail Mary pass.
