Plus BO saves puppies. Puppies. Okay i’ll let the adults get back to talking even though we all should know BO is, to date, THE best all around best RB in the league hands down.

It doesn't fit the narrative that Mills is the best back in the league. I won't bring up the fact that BO had a better YPC average either, cause he won't care about that stat.

still....people here say playoffs is a success...so if a success....does that not mean a "crap" team as per OP? Just going off narrative here that peole claimed we were sucessfull last several yrs due to the playoff thing...when people were discussing ridding ourselves of Osh dont think he will be heathy and ready to start the yr....Hopefully we learned from the Schoen fiasco of rushing a guy back...especially an interior lineman who will be in constant threat of getting his knee crashed down on in the melee that is line play yeah....if/when healthy he will be a key piece for rotation and jumbo packages both sides of the ball.....shedding Kolo and Thomas also frees up close to 300k used elsewhere...I know Kolo made 150k lastt yr...I sure thomas wasnt below 120k

Schmek, improved before his injury, as a back-up rotational piece with Lawson, combined with his play on Jumbo packages, he is a perfect fit IMO. I could be wrong but I don't think he will be ready for the start of the season anyway...... Kola moving on and Thomos transitioning into coaching, in conjunction with signing, mostly Canadian starters thus far has been IMO a great offseason start...

Arniel getting fired today? Something has to give.

How is that a running back issue? It's a pass pro / receiver capability issue.

6 out of 9 teams make the playoffs....so not a stretch

wooooooow! kola cut at last, happy days! I’m pretty stunned. Hopefully schmekel doesn’t take jake level snaps or top 4. With out a significant step forward. We’ve thrown too much money at a couple guys, but we’ve kept the main ones we need and gotten rid of the worst of the roster. That’s a big step up. If we can get 1-2 key free agent pick ups, we will be well situated for next year. Especially need another strong draft as well.

Kolankowski released, Schmeckel re-signed

I'm talking take aways...INT's...FF's...Tackles for losses..Tackles for zero to minimal gain...he's bottom of the bucket for all that...and yes a lot of tackles are not necessarily a key 'main" indicator...but the definitely are within context tho...and contextually he is not good....I would like to see his missed tackle stats as well....and most people here also bemoaned Houston's play as it was all or noting at times...and the nothing always happened at the worst times And I dont recall all these bug hits and his impact out there being key....seen lotsa whiffs and blown coverages tho......15 of top 20 tacklers were on winning teams...and teams in playoffs....and around here playoff appearances are considered big success...so kinda blows that narrative out of water that league tackling leaders are on crap teams....no?

Offseason or not that gif is always relevant around here.

when he not true starter calibre...and we can get wayyyyy better production with an import at that spot...for half the cap hit...then yeah...it's kinda bad

I'll assume that Montreal or somebody else gives Dequoy around $200,000. So is Kramdi at $180,000 and the 4th highest paid Canadian DB as bad?

Not for me, I don't really pay attention to the Jets until playoff time. The NHL regular season is too long to really get invested in.

lol that's an absolutely brain dead take. Right up there with Nye's take on Brady being named the MOP..."he only scored 4 tds!" So sure, go ahead and only use the stats that back up your narrative, whatever makes you feel better i guess.

It's gonna be a LOT worse than that.

I agree on Vancouver, and it has been that way there for a LONG time. Much longer than Winnipeg that's for sure. We have no political will to deal with our downtown or tent cities. Not sure they could do anything even if they actually tried.

Was talking about the 2025 playoff crapout, not the present struggles.

Judging by some of the recent contracts I'm not sure we have the same information as the GMs around the league. Kramdi at 180 and Katsatonis at 200k are mind boggling number that make zero sense unless the SMS is getting a huge bump.

Katsatonis at 200k per has me pretty convinced that there is a big increase to the SMS that's going to be announced. A safety making 200k...even a NAT...is ludicrous otherwise. I feel better about our signings now as this seems to be fairly obvious now.

If that means losing....so be it. If we are talking RBs let's talk rushing. I could care less that BO had a ton of touches as a receiver. That was a big part of our problem last year was that we overused our RB out of the backfield as a safety valve because we couldn't get it to our receivers. Mills was a far more consistent threat on the ground last year.

It's too bad that ST:SNW is ending... Pike is one of my favorite Captains... Anson Mounts performance- fantastic. I really wish we could have had more episodes.
