February 7, 20205 yr comment_460198 I'm guessing you didn't check the 2019-2020 off season thread before you posted this.

Nor would I have thought that this wasn't worth it's own thread. If the mods wish they may certainly exercise their option to nuke it. Edited February 7, 20205 yr by Deiter Fan

April 2, 20205 yr comment_468943 Did anybody catch Matt Nichols interview after from Toronto.....  it was sometime in February as I caught it on CJOB while driving back from HSC all of February ( wife had a second brain bleed ).... anyways he commented about not liking the " game manager " moniker he acquired while he was in Winnipeg.  I thought that was pretty interesting,  maybe he didn't like Lapos play calling either.

This isn't news. I think he was fine with the play calling. He just didn't feel the label was accurate, and it wasn't. I've been re-watching the first half of last season, and Nichols was really really good, and took some chances. Went deep a lot actually.Â

Went deep a lot actually. He went deep a few times a game.... but out side of that it was predominately dink and dunk.  The guy was absolutely useless on any midrange passes or throwing to receivers in stride. Night and day difference when Collaros played at the end of the season hitting guys like Bailey at full speed.Â

April 3, 20205 yr comment_468994 Nice to see the old "game manager" is still taking up rent space in the empty heads of the usual clueless suspects with their bullshit revisionist history.

Nichols was good before his first injury with us...after it was night and day different in his ability to make plays. How many times can you blame Lapo when Nichols struggles to make a 10 yard pass where the receiver has to dive or stop completely and turn around and scoop a ball. If Lapo was so bad then how come with Zach the offense had no issues moving the ball and the new receivers suddenly came to life and were involved in the plays. Same with two seasons ago when Strev played as a normal qb (meaning not doing gadget trick plays each time)

How many times to I have to explain these things to you people? You watch, Ottawa is going to be a team that barely loses most of their games cause that's the Lapo way. He's not a new entity in the CFL, He's been doing his thing since 2002. We've seen it time and time again.Â
April 3, 20205 yr comment_469075 How many grey cup winning teams has Lapo been a part of since 2002 ? Â

We've seen it time and time again. I'm not denying that LaPo was way to conservative... but don't make it seem like Nichols was playing at an elite level. The guy struggled massively at making any intermediate passes.   Night and day different in how he played after his initial injury with us. Watch the games man, look at how many times our receivers had to dive or turn back and dig out passes that were under thrown. That was WITH great protection with the best o-line in the league.   Your hate for LaPo has blinded you from seeing how shitty Nichols has been the last few years.  I'm sure LaPo and Ottawa will suck balls this year if they play... but just imagine how shitty Nichols will be without a great o-line and the best rb in the league. I'll be surprised if they keep him for the full season.  MBT as insane as he is, he can at least throw a 20 yard pass and can at least escape some pressure without turtling. Nichols is toast. Â

April 4, 20205 yr comment_469123 Lapo and Nichols are Game Managers together... Richie Hall was a bum until we had WillieJ and Bighill - maybe Lapo and Nichols win the lottery too
