Yep. The random chuckitius he comes down with is pretty bad. Doesn't seem to matter how many DBs are in the area; if he has it in his mind to chuck on that snap, it's going deep. OFC we want to win the cup every year. But the realistic hope for me is that we have a pre-Zach 2019 type team building again. Where the D/teams went out expecting to have to win the game every week. And won many, many games. Rebuild the team into one where every unit feels like the QB of the team with the need to propel us to a win. That way if we find a qb worth growing with, or get another older guy we have the supporting pieces to dominate again.

Who knew Seth Jarvis…..

Who knew Ehlers was worth 30pts

I am hoping Zach rebounds and we win the cup in 2026 because

Yeah he at the upper range where he can have a bit of a resurgence, and like you said he may already have had it on 19'-22'....and even then a lot of his success in the later part of that was more the talent around him...that talent eroded last 2 yrs and well....we saw what we got My concern is his slower processing ability it seems now....and is making for poor decisions, as well as he is at times looking like he in self preservation made....and plays scared at times due to it We are yeah tied to him for this yr....My fear is he has a season that seems like he is still 2019-2021 ZC and we go and re-up him for dumb money again but that success was just smoke and mirror type success and we further stunt any transition, or miss out on a QB who could be the starter here for yrs...and we all know Osh will push for that as that's how he rolls....as he has claimed right up to the end of last yr that ZC is elite and best in league, so why would he change that stance...At least Walter's forced his hand with Thomas and Kolo and took that right outta the equation....not sure tho about him taking the ZC issue out of the equation tho I want us to win the cup next yr....but that could also be the worst thig to happen here for the QB position

Collaros may be old and bad, but he makes up for it by being expensive.

It's true, but there are other factors that make it less likely for us. Like, none of them were turning 38 years old when they had the comeback. Doing that in your early 30s is very different than doing it at 40. None of them had the massive list of serious injury concerns Zach has faced his whole career. Zach already had one miraculous career resurgence, and it wasn't one big injury that held Zach out or back last year. He's been held back by a big old stack of medical issues for the last 2 years. We will be giving Zach basically the best case scenario this year. More OL talent than you could shake a stick at. Seriously, our send best OL unit this year is better than the best of the last 2.5 years or so. Rbs and depth, WRs with top-end talent, and an OC that is basically hand-picked for him. I hate that we are tied to Zach; I hate even more that we have no contingency plan. I hate most that we had no real way of doing any better at QB this offseason. But it is what it is. Have to hope for betting QBing room next year at this point.

It'll be more like Ivana's. No autopsy, cremation and a nice spot on the golf course. Accidents happen.

Wow a 30 point difference from last season. A gradual drop off it is not. I’m hoping for a thorough autopsy that reveals the true causes of death. Thought I’d go with the morbid approach on a glorious Monday that it is. :)

Collaros looked cooked 10 years ago because of his injuries - the fact he's healthy & still playing at all is remarkable.

If the reclamation project in Trevor H. could do it, so can Collaros. Even BLM looked cooked 3 years ago.

I wonder if the actresses that player Ross the Boss's mistress and his sister are still alive. https://deadline.com/2026/03/valerie-perrine-dead-1236763033/

You think that Collaros would have lasted better in Ottawa than Brown did or that Brown would have been injured as often running our offence behind our O-line? That's why arguments based on conjecture are so stupid. There is no way to prove them either way. Just flapping your 'internet' lips again.

Bombers have created a spring Bantam 12 on 12 league this year. Would be nice if we moved community football to the spring like every other province so we can actually run high school and up with proper resourcing in the fall. In Winnipeg region we legitimately only have 6 officiating crews for minor football right through CJFL. They also are the stick/sideline crews for U Sports.

Kelly+Arbuckle is a better duo than Mitchell/Ford

ZC with a new OC....good oline again and some legit targets is gonna do one of 2 things...Either have a late in career renaissance like Calvillo had and actually be a legit #1 and possibly another 2..3 really good yrs in him if the situation allows for it....Or he is gonna confirm the last 2 yrs of this spiral into crapsville is real and he is done. And we should do whatever we have to in the season if this is the case to address it and not wait for the off-season and really be hooped...if it means trading assets...Picks...or a legitimate performer so be it, but get it accomplished If he shows a rebirth and his physical skills look like they are not degraded from previous season, then he could be a resigning on a 1 yr deal for 2027 at a reasonable price as we are hopefully grooming the 2028 guy....Not at the 600k price tag he has been getting...not even 500k...but more in the scope of what BLM has taken and if he doesnt like that deal....See ya later

They donate $$ for equipment to Club football. Like has been mentioned they run "try football" camps as well as short development camps for young kids. They have players help out in practices. They sponsor the 3 of the 4 flag football seasons. And a new one they are hosting a "Prairie Showdown" for flag football that I believe is basically a provincial tournament...sending the highest ranked MB team to nationals. I say highest ranks MB team because other provinces are involved as well as some states. They host coaching clinics and help with a coaching dinner for clubs to start the year. I can't say for sure but I'm sure they're involved in the new spring tackle season for U16 and up ages. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Yeah, great to see as helmets are the biggest expense when it comes to buying football equipment for teams. I never hear of anything even close to that from the Stamps when it comes to the football community in Calgary. AFAIK, the team doesn't even exist anymore in Calgary. The media here treats the Stamps the same way the owner treats Calgarians. They ignore them the same way he ignores them. The local newspapers don't even cover away games anymore. Coverage is almost non existent. The owner is such a cheap bastard. Most fans wish he'd sell the team. He's an absentee billionaire owner who lives in Switzerland so he doesn't have to pay personal income taxes in Alberta & Canada after making his personal fortune here in the oil & gas industry. He's either refusing to sell or wants so much $$$ that no one will buy the team.

This is from last year but I imagine its more of the same for this year https://3downnation.com/2025/04/04/winnipeg-blue-bombers-contributed-930000-to-amateur-football-in-2024/ I generally see those types of articles "Bombers donated $X worth of helmets". They also run the try football camps all the time... usually 4-5 sessions that are free of cost and draw around 100 kids. I sign my kids up for so many Bomber activities I don't even have to spend any money at Save-On-Foods anymore, they just keep giving them gift cards that I use.

I'd believe it ..

This coming season my man ZC is going to stay healthy, light it up, lead us to Grey Cup victory and retire on top. At the very least it feels good writing this. Off season hope.

The way Brown was, he'd have never played an yway. He had large gaps between being performing on the field & IR. I just got the impression Brown may have been able to come back come back but didn't seem to want to. I question his toughness & leadership as he certainly doesn't seem to be another Matt Dunigan or Jeff Garcia. So, if T Burg wants to pay a guy who's injured more than he plays then how are we saving money? We'd have been paying Brown to sit & do nothing on the 6 game Injury List multiple times. I think Dinwiddie felt the same & went out & got a qb he feels he can work with in Maier to push Brown. Look what Dinwiddie did with Arbuckle in Toronto last year. Two years ago, it looked like his career was over. If he does the same thing with Maier then Brown is gone. Ottwa is (probably) spending more money on their two qbs than we spend on the 3 or 4 we have now as both in Ottawa are veterans. Other than Zach, our qb room have backups with limited experience or none at all.

Then, instead of Collaros getting pulped because of a crappy OC and O-line, we would have had Brown getting pulped, but at a cheaper price. Not sure that would have accomplished much.
