gbill2004 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 LH hasn't resigned has he?No he hasn't. Bombers made him a generous offer in the offseason but he turned it down because of NFL aspirations. He's likely regretting that decision now.
Goalie Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Honestly, outside of a couple i believe 4 or 5 missed extra points and a couple maybe 2 or 3 bad punts, has LH really been as bad as people believe he has been? Or do we just remember the bad things and forget about the good? wbbfan 1

DR. CFL Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 U r right...look at Medlock he couldn't crack an NFL lineup

DR. CFL Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Good or bad isn't always the issue. Depth and a plan B if your studd muffin gets hurt or doesn't resign. B-F-F-C 1

Or do we just remember the bad things and forget about the good? That's a lot of points he's taken off the board for us and given to the opposition in the case of the bad punts/punt he didn't get off. The other blocked punt was a missed blocking assignment. To me his placekicking is good, but cold hard fact is that he's hitting 74% of his kicks for points (FG's and converts). Those are Westwood-esque numbers and worst in the league by a wide margin.
Mr Dee Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Lirim's numbers...broken down a bit more... Just FGs - 14-17 82.4% - 5-5 20-29 yds, 2-3 30-39 yds, 2-3 40-49 yds, 3-4 50+ yards - longest 53 yards. Lirim has missed 5 converts, Bede and Shaw have missed 4, Paredes 3 Medlock is a phenomenal 33-34 on converts Hajrullahu however, leads in KO singles with 5 wbbfan and SPuDS 2
iso_55 Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Be interesting to see the league breakdown
Mr Dee Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 The league breakdown.. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/statistics#/kicking
DR. CFL Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Also illegal punts and kickoffs out of bounds
Goalie Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Maver is a good punter. He nets 36.2 yards on his punts. Lirim nets 36.1 Not too bad really.
B-F-F-C Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 This is definitely insurance and an opportunity to workout a couple of kickers should we find ourselves looking for a new one in 2016. However, I'd be surprised if LH gets a NFL invite. He's not showing the accuracy on fg's that's needed in the NFL nor the placement on punts. I support his NFL dream but this years performance is doing nothing to support his goal.

Lirim has missed 5 converts, Bede and Shaw have missed 4, Paredes 3 Medlock is a phenomenal 33-34 on converts Hajrullahu however, leads in KO singles with 5 Also dont forget his coffin corner accuracy. Its pretty solid..

You miss a 30-39 yarder in the NFL and you're gone the next day... he's likely not getting any NFL opportunities yet...
