I’m captain of the plop the oc sucks. But even as a leader he is better. I actually thought he would be solid as a hc if he could keep his hands off the offence in game.

johnzo Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 Occasionally Matty will spotlight a little piece of the game that teaches me something. But mostly I enjoy him because I live his spirit and enthusiasm for the game, and he generally doesn't put lipstick on any pigs. The best TSN color guy for in game analysis seems to be Forde ... generally he's worth listening to. Would love to see Lapo try color, see if he can do his crisp explaining in the few seconds he's got between plays....

Dude knows football, he just doesn't know when to go for it and when to play it safe. Down by 2 scores with little time left is the best lapo. Up by 2 scores with half a game left is worst lapo. wbbfan, JohnnyAbonny, johnzo and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 Always liked Lapo as an OC... Maybe a little conservative but his play designs are excellent... Dreadful head coach however Fatty Liver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was excellent. johnzo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 (edited) So I generally remember Bombers by their best moments rather than their worst -- I remember Michael Bishop throwing laser bombs all day against the Als and I remember Ritchie Hall absolutely owning the Lions last year, and I remember Justin Goltz throwing that crazy TD to Clarence Denmark at the Skydome .... and I remember Lapo's Grey Cup 2019 game where he had the Ticats chasing smoke all day. Lapo had some frustrating moments in blue but he had his high points too.

Goalie Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 Ok guys ok let’s ok go ok cuz ok we ok can ok beat ok these guys ok. Lapo a terrible coach but great analyst on tsn. As an oc I didn’t mind him. Head coach. Dude was the smartest guy in the room. But I remember hearing one of his pre game speeches and thought. Yup. Not a leader. Neither am I tho. 43 minutes ago, wbbfan said: Mos had a similar record into 2019. now some people think he’s infallible.

Didn’t help that he had an injured starting QB almost every year he coached. But one of his biggest flaws, self-admittedly, was that he was a micro manager as a head coach and did not put trust in his assistants to run their units, especially the offence. When he was simply the OC, whatever deficiencies with the play calling that people disliked, the results did quite often place the Bombers near the top of the league in offensive performance.

You’re right I was looking at the wrong meet of numbers. However Plops years here as a hc his record was 20-34 mos in the same amount of time was 22-31 in which time plop won a division final and made a grey cup, where as mos lost a divisional semi final. If Glenn doesn’t get hurt, we win in 11 and mos never starts working here. TrueBlue4ever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got hurt in 2007 when Doug Berry was the head coach. Noeller, Bigblue204, Atomic and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
