  1. Legs wasn't the only reason we lost but no I don't trust he can do the job. You do & that's fine. I hope you're right & I'm wrong. Right off the bat, Legghio has to somehow learn to be a lot more mentally tougher. Don't let the last miss affect your next kick. Throw the negative thought aside. Just go out there & kick the damned ball through the uprights. I recall half the city wanted Hajrullahu's head after that Calgary game. The Bombers cut him at season end. They brought in other kickers like Castillo & shut Lirim down for the season. He never played here again. Did O'Shea hate the guy too or was it just a business decision that he wasn't good enough at the time?
  2. You absolutely trust that Legghio will make a pressure kick from 37 yards out when the game's on the line to win a playoff or Grey Cup game? How can you have that much trust when he's never shown he can do it? I really want to trust that the guy will do it & I was starting to come around to him this season. Like maybe he's somehow overcome his nervous inconsistency & now is mentally tough like a pro kicker needs to be. And then tonight happened...
  3. Castillo may be 78.3% but most of us would trust that he'd kick a game winning FG in a regular season or Grey Cup game when it was all on the line. We don't have that same trust with Legghio. I think we all knew at some point, he'd cost us a game with his inconsistency. Someone name me the pressure kicks he's made to win games for us when everything is on the line the past 2 seasons. I sure can't because he hasn't.
  4. An NFL kicker who did that would be cut. There'd be no second chances. Seen it a hundred times.
  5. My concern is the playoffs & if we can win with the OL playing at the low level it is now. I understand we're starting 8 Canadians. Perhaps we bring in some American OL who are NFL cuts. Work them out & choose the best taking out one of our Canadian OL (likely Neufeld). Insert an American in his place at guard. To me, it's got to be done. We have to protect Collaros.
  6. Legs can't kick under pressure. He proved it again last night. When he absolutely needed to make that kick to win the game he couldn't do it. He had a chance to redeem himself a minute later & he hit the upright. We all knew bad kicking would cost us a game. It finally did. not good enough. There were other reasons we lost the game. Our OL absolutely stunk the joint out all game. Something needs to be done. We can't just stand pat. The line is beginning to look like it's 2015 with Drew Willy back there which is a scary thought as it's Zach Collaros taking snaps & not Willy. If he goes down the season is over. The D that prides itself on being so stingy as well as in the 4th quarter couldn't stop a journeyman Trevor Harris & the Als offense after the Collaros fumble as they marched downfield. On a couple of plays the secondary looked mesmerized & seemed to just watch the ball being caught by Als receivers. Rutledge lining up offside. The Bomber offense going into a shell trying not to lose the game by running the ball to Oliveira instead of going after the Als jugular. At least throw the ball once. Maybe we'll get a first down & continue to shave time off the clock & we end up scoring another TD. The last series was so LaPo it wasn't funny. So, it wasn't all Legs fault although his mistakes were for all to see. The Bomber D, Buck Pierce, the OL can all take equal credit for the loss last night. I just hope Walters & O'Shea sit down & try to address the problems in the 2 weeks we have off. Thanks ******* God this team has a bye!
  7. Imagine if this had been the Western Final against the Lions??? As the season goes on, the pressure mounts. Liegghio better put on his Big Boy pants, Get out there & do what he gets paid to do.
  8. That's how we beat the Argos in the 1990 Eastern Final. Kicked the ball through the end zone for a single point. So, why wouldn't you want to win that way?
  9. Better, yes. I can accept that. More deserving? Hell, no.
  10. The snap looked a little off which also made the timing off. It looked like Liegghio tried to punch it through instead of a nice easy kicking motion like he would normally do. He panicked. The second kick he hit it a bit wide. Stll had the yips from the fist kick. I was just about ready to start believing that he able to put all that crud he keeps in his head aside. Guess I was wrong. If he can't handle the pressure then find someone who can.
  11. Think about Mourtada?? Aye yi yi...
  12. Offensive line. You can see it. I can go back 10,000 pages & I won't believe it.
  13. I don't believe that for one second.
  14. He can't handle pressure situations, He can kick FG's but nothing has to be on the line. As soon as it is, he wets his pants. He's been that waay since he came here.
  15. Give him an apple & a road map & send him out of town.
  16. What's to learn? Just kick the damned ball.
  17. I seriously can't believe we let Castillo walk.
  18. Liegghio, I have no words. Imagine if that was the GC. We have a kicker who chokes.
  19. We may have fumbled but the D couldn't stop the Als offense. In particular, Harris throwing to Weineke & Lewis.
  20. It's like our secondary was just watching the ball go to Weineke. Standing there. I see that a lot in bantam & HS ball. Shouldn't see it at the CFL level.
  21. That's bias? It's his opinion.
