No more JT on the d-line, no more Hogan running the entire offence, it’s a beautiful day! 😁 -

If you think the nightlife in Winnipeg is remotely comparable, you've clearly never been to any of those places. -

Still doesn't answer my questions with any solid facts. As a competitive guy myself, I would be embrassed if a team actually planned a tank on purpose.
-
They won’t rebuild. Not with 55 81 37 all signed long term. They will retool and if that means tanking this season I think that’s ok. McKenna is a franchise player. SJ pretty much. Sharks. Buffalo also tried tanking for McDavid as rumors were he wanted to go to there or preferred it but Edmonton won the draft.

But it’s a fact. He played pro football for 13 years. Dude volunteers at the Siloam mission, you are afraid of Disraeli. I mean really. He worked his way up the PA also, is respected by every player he lined up beside and every player he lined up against. Below average player? Sure but so were tons of guys who went on to become great coaches. Don’t we have a statue outside PAS of one of those dudes. I’m not saying Jake is shedeur sanders and gonna be legendary but sounds like being a coach takes a certain mindset that Jake apparently has. -

Yup and they are all professionals so hopefully they can be professional. If not has potential to blow up but I don’t think it will come to that. other interesting things. Jackson to be determined and regardless of that they want to add one more coach. -

This is the feeling I'm getting too with this move. Like "Hey you stepped up when we were in a tight spot, it didn't work out but we don't want to cast you aside because of it" -

So wonder how much all these guys we signed early would maybe have some of next seasons “cash” on this years cap. I mean even if it’s 50k per dude that’s a nice savings. I don’t think we don’t sign FAs cuz we pay 3 guys big money like every other team does really, I think Kyle has a number he won’t go over for certain positions. I mean our QB. MOP Canadian RB and all star Canadian receiver get paid. I mean, it’s not like we giving 325 to an American receiver are we. Nope. BC is. I don’t see the problem paying your stars money. That’s how sports is. but curious which talented players won’t be back cuz of cap issues? lol like name 2 from last year even? Still going on about lawler I guess but he’s paid 300k also so man some of these posts are wild. @Bigblue204 is right. Up is left. Down is up. Backwards is sideways on here right now. -

The DL coach was Patterson last year. He either retired or was forced to retire. Jake is now the DL coach. To me, Jake as DL coach is like Mike miller becoming a coach immediately afterwards also and last year he was our best coordinator in my opinion so there’s some hope there. Sounds like Jake is well liked and respected throughout the league, regardless of talent or lack off, he was a fine rotational piece tho but regardless of that 13 years of pro football = wealth of knowledge. Just cuz Jake wasn’t athletic enough doesn’t mean he doesn’t know things. I think he’s gonna turn out to be a very good coach for us. I get that feeling. Hogan? After listening to the O’Shea audio, I feel like he’s back because someone else was supposed to be OC but said no so they hired in house and O’Shea feels bad he set hogan up to fail. “First and foremost, it starts with me and making sure I’m holding everybody accountable to a higher standard. We just didn’t play up to our standard last year, especially on offence. It’s pretty easy to say that.” “There were certain things that were out of character for us last year that we need to come in this year and fix. I don’t think that, as you alluded to, making a change or a couple changes doesn’t fix everything. Everybody’s got to come in with a commitment to getting back to playing football the right way, playing good football and resetting the culture and that starts with me.” -Mike O’Shea The audio is interesting. Osh taking accountability for sure. If ppl haven’t listened they should and while you get the jets Chevy talk with Osh a bit, he definitely takes the blame and heat for everything last year. No specifics cuz resetting the culture means keeping things in house but I’m not sure I’ve heard a more humble O’Shea than I did in that audio. -

its all hard money apparently....but yeah if he gets dinged we can escape some of it on the 6 game...that being said...not sure how much was bonus money paid before even a snap this coming yr...so may not even be that big of savings if he goes down -

You want a house? Start saving money, kid. You're making a million dollars US a year playing for the Rams. Limos & expensive carrying cases for your shoes won't cut it. -

We had a subpar offense and nearly no pressure from the d-line last year.... instead of making clear changes to improve we bring back two guys who were partially responsible for these issues? How many times does it work when you dump a girlfriend and keep her as a friend afterwards? The smart thing is a clean break and moving on. -

Mike replied to johnzo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I’ll just take these moves at face value. Hogan, it seemed like everyone knew he sucked at his job and it grew to be a point of contention with several players (Zach, Brady, etc) so I really don’t get the desire to bring him back in any capacity. Jake, as much as I’ve hated seeing him get trotted out there for the past … 5??? years, I’m really not too bothered by us hiring him. That being said, I think it’s fair to say this isn’t a move that gives me confidence as a fan. Also fair to say, it’s probably the first move we’ve made all offseason that has given me pause (and the fact that it’s an O’Shea decision shouldn’t be lost on any of us) -
I love when the word tank is used. Do they have meetings and decide this? If Chevy calls up the whole AHL team and plays them, yes they are tanking but other than that happening what do they do, players play half assed and coaches purposely make bad decisions? Has any NHL team ever admitted to tanking a season?

Missouri saved a lot of money. Travelled through both KC's on a bus a decade back. KC, KS felt like an industrial park.

I really don't see a lot to complain about with these hires, but hey maybe I'm just not raging hard enough. Hogan was very good as the RB coach - good enough to draw praise from players and get the OC promotion. It didn't work out. He's back in a role that he previously excelled at. Seems fine to me. I am sure Osh assessed whether it would be awkward or difficult for Hogan to have a demotion. Jake Thomas had a lengthy career and most of it was due to his hard work and effort. This was not a man with God-given talent. Those players have to work and perfect their craft to succeed, especially to stick around a while. I could see him being good in this role. Maybe he won't be, who knows. I look forward to hearing about the DL coach after every loss next year. -

Do we know how much salary Zach has in bonuses compared to his base salary? Maybe if he's stashed on the IR we can free up cash for more FA? -
I can see the Jets moving in 10 years or so. As the Jets 1.0 fans die off and less interest from the younger people it could cause them to move away (again).

Yeah, okay. Whatever you say. You sound like Neville Chamberlain coming home to London after his meeting with Hitler's Nazis in 1939 holding up that useless piece ot toilet paper that was supposed to be a treaty & gleefully proclaiming, "There will be peace in our time." You have no clue either.
