He is not a CFL calibre starting QB and probably will never be one.

In a SMS world things change. What was too expensive yesterday, can become affordable today. It is ridiculous to suggest that just because Walters came late to the party it means he was lazy or was over confident. He likely pegged money for something else and circled back when it became apparent that whatever avenue he wanted to explore had dried up.....probably Lawler. Plans are just that...plans...but no GM in this league executes their plans 100% in FA. You pivot according to how the market plays out. Some guys you want to sign just become unaffordable. Tbh, I would have been POed if we blew that kind of cash on a DB and I thought Ford was an incredible NAT asset, but EDM threw ridonkulous money at him.

Starting?!? 😂 It's a lock!

One year two way

sigh how the hell did Agatha All Along get under nominated? Patti Lupone should have been up for an emmy especially for that one episode, well at least the Ballad of the witches road song got love...and now it has to be a Halloween standard up there with Monster Mash, the Ghostbusters theme and Thriller

Who said lazy? Maybe dragging out negotiations was part of his strategy. Like you said, there could be many reasons but we have no idea what they are/were. Also never said there was no plan - I said I don't get what his plan was & I'm not referring just to Ford. either. I'm good with letting almost any DB go if his salary is going to prevent us from re-signing or signing players who could help in other areas. There were a number of moves (or lack thereof) that I didn't get.

Awesome Zach, the more Bomber content on the net the better.

I think every one of those games was winnable, with the exception of last year, and that is because our QB got injured and our backup was out all season basically. Can anyone really say that we weren't one or two plays away from winning the other two Grey Cups? I don't think you can. I mean Fajardo throws a punt on 2nd and 25 and somehow completes it......that summed up our 4th Q in a game we dominated for 55 minutes. Honestly, it has left the realm of football discussion already. Forest fire smoke? MOS did it.

Curious to see how Randolph and Vanterpool look at tackle if Stan can't go. Curious to see if we add another DE to the roster and how that impacts our dline.

Need to add a daily post limit per person.

100 percent, every conversation keeps on circling back to O’Shea and ends up being regurgitating the same thing over and over again..

WHY DO you think Penn left...there reasons for everything....Walter's needs to step up as Boss...Or Miller step in and make it known how heirachy works...Osh seems to have too much say in things...and not in a good way every coach runs their cousre...and their ideologies start to wane and not work....hence nobody coaches forever....really good ones dapt and evolve...Osh hasnt adapted or evolved at all So say we have another up and down yr...get in playoffs and flop again...due to a combo of poor roster makeup....playing injured guys cause you had no trust in, nor did you allow any to play/develop and even evaluate to see if they even deserve to be here....and more dumb in game decisions? Keeping a guy on again with those 4 straight failures for same reasons...after 12 yr....time for change....like I said...He not the only worthy coach out there And how is it a smear campaign when it's just presenting whats occurred...facts...and the obvious???... He's been outcoached and outmatched in 3 straight championship games...so obviously there are other more than capable coaches out there no...its a case of osh ruling...plain and simpple...always has been

That and not pulling him when a piece of his finger was dangling off

Last year I honestly put that almost solely on Buck. They knew what didn't work against the argos and decided to try it anyway.

This site is getting dangerously close to unreadable on a daily basis. We've been losing regular contributors because of it, which is a shame... Feels like the Jim Daley/Tim Burke/Lapo era of darkness based on some of the posts, and not an unmatched generational winning streak on and off the field...

One different play outcome at the essential end of two of those games would have made it 4 out of five wins. The play that did drive me crazy was Prukop's pick in '22 when the Bombers were driving toward a potentially decisive score. Breaks decide many big games, although I will concede that last year was a mess from the personnel decisions on.

And to completely speculate maybe Mitchell isn't behaving to the expectations of the OC and his crew but they hope he does sooner than later.

Well it's also a case of a hold over from the year before, so not really new new....

No this week the coach is playing the wrong new guy. Maybe the disconnect is with the OC and offensive coaching staff. Mitchell was signed before they were.

Top end for a DB is $140-150k, anything above is a huge waste of limited SMS.

All of them. Crazy to suggest that MOS should be fired. Absolutely nuts. I can't even believe that people on this forum are suggesting MOS should be fired. Can he improve some flaws...absolutely but this guys has coached us to 5 straight Grey Cups. I can't believe the entitlement some fans around here are showing. Good gravy. I'm not suggesting MOS is the perfect coach, but the smear campaign against him is baffling. Our team hasn't been this competitive and strong since the 80's, FIred? Really?

that doesn't mean Walters was being lazy though. They could have had money in place for other players...maybe some worked out by upping their offer...or maybe some didn't and they weren't able to sign some players. And when those priorities settled, they had enough money to make an offer to Ford that he would accept. "Hey we're not going to be able to get to Fords #'s unless priorities A-B and C don't happen." Turns out A-B and C don't happen, and they make an offer to Ford. Which turns out to be too late. This or any number of other scenarios could have happened. So there was a plan...priorities shifted and they could move forward with offering a field side corner way more than he should be making. This idea there was "no plan" is idiotic.

If Schoen’s knee never fully heals, that’ll be one of the greatest questions of all time, what would have his production been if he played a fully healthy career.
