His interim record from 2008 train wreck drags down his overall record. Franchise was in the depths of despair prior to him. Made playoffs 09-11. Restored respectability here. He didn't do it alone by any means but he earned a fair share of the credit for the turnaround., imo. As a coordinator elsewhere? I'll leave that to others for comment.

February 23, 20205 yr comment_464041 None of Lapo's guys followed him. Besides flanders which doesn't count I honestly think that says something about players faith in him. I stand by my prediction that Ottawa continues to be a dumpster fire under Lapo. X's and O's are great but it means nothing since he doesn't have a set of testicles.

Seems like a poor man's Trevor Harris to me, but I would rather gamble on magic beans than have Nichols, MBT, Fajardo, Davis, Jennings. "Mad scientist" Lapo should be able to turn him into a 5000 yard guy Edited February 23, 20205 yr by Dr Zaius

Which also lends to the notion receivers here under performed..and many failed based on the Lapo scheme...and was pretty obvious Many a game I watched exclusively routes..route progressions and watched QB's primary looks..and things were not set up for high end receiver performances...and garuantee you this year the look and use of guys will be blatantly obvious

Sigurdson was a good journalist but Matty loved to get gritty sometimes. Yet he kept his relationships intact which is something Paul Wiecek could never do. He was just a smart alecky, hack, mean spirited journalist.

February 23, 20205 yr comment_464068 I seem to remember him panicking on the sidelines in late game 4th quarter key situations when he was Bombers HC that cost us some victories.

Gone for it when we should have punted. I remember this place going crazy after some games when LaPo was HC. Well, the other place but you know what I mean.
