Eli got 1 shot and not the other. And had it for a while. If I had to guess he couldve had a bad reaction to it. Its nothing like masoli being very anti vax. I think he will get the shot and be back this year. If he doesnt, his career is over. If he does, he could be 1 year as a starter away from an NFL deal. He was here for 2 grey cups, he clearly is NOT a FO guy. He clearly fits in in the locker room. I think a team friendly deal is certainly in order. Got a link? All I've been seeing is speculation that he will get vaxxed. Because just like eli no jab no career.

Couture is an interesting one. Idk what to expect. Best case scenario if Couture and desjarlais leave is Eli gets his 2nd shot and starts at center while gray starts at guard.

Man we are sooo lucky to not just have a great qb and team but a great person and group of people. No matter how this dynasty or the careers powering them ends this is an all time great group of football people. And we are very lucky to have them.

Which is dumb. It should be a no decision like in baseball. Starter leaves with a lead the lead is blown he gets a nd the reliever who gave up the lead gets a loss.

Yeeeeeessssssssss

Truth. It is hard to find qbs with projectable arm talent and the mine to execute. I imagine finding all that and a fifo locker room guy isn't easy.

True. Iirc he played like half of 19 at s when he came back from injury but that moment was critical to both gc wins. Idk if any one is more under rated.

I thought Castillo had 2022 under contract from when he extended or re activated or what ever. Might be wrong but I also don't think he gets an NFL call. Right now we have a kind of scary number of must signs. Ba was the most under rated defensive player in the league last year.

Omg that's hilarious I'd never heard that before thanks for sharing. It's a pick em between moss and Megatron imo. But I'd probably go with Megatron. Watching him play it looked like he could've kicked it into another gear and gone all Michal Jordan any time he wanted. Those two wrs are just from another planet. Funny thing is they could likely improve their ol with the couple imps they've plucked recently but still have the worst ol and be even worse off ratio wise. He's a 100k a year back up qb. And yes as many people will point out he is nuttier than an out house rat. Between Masoli mbt and streveler who do you take if you need a starting qb? Masoli is the better qb but he's anti clutch. And an anti vax nut bag. I'd still take streveler. I'll bet on heart and a good head on his shoulders every time. I actually think Montreal would be a great spot for strevy. Rpo former great qb in khari who has worked well with mobile qbs who are limited passers great run game and wrs.

Good point. The amount of great ocs who didn't play qb and didn't have a qb with a great system teach them is tiny. It's like trying to make all pro in the nfl being 100 lbs soaking wet. If plop could recognize his limitations and bring in a guy like a younger Dinwiddie help make the playbook but let his oc call the game and coach qbs he could be successful. He is a good personnel coach. But that wouldn't happen. Even if he wanted it I don't think it's possible with the coaching cap.

That moves a biggie. Stove and ba then the defense is in great shape. Zach Bryant Lawler and rbs on offense. A lot of work for the mafia left to do.

Yep. 100 percent. And to give him credit where it's due he can draw up a playbook. Bill Walsh June Jones mouse Davis a lot of the innovators on offense failed as qbs either in college or early in the pros. Sean mcvay is a offensive modern guru who is great with qbs and didn't play qb. He was also a failed college wr. But he is a disciple of Shanahan who was a qb. Plop doesn't have a coaching lineage to fall back on. Over coming not playing qb and not having that former qb great coach teacher is pretty near impossible to over come. Chip Kelly was a db. Don coryell was a hb. Woody Hayes was a tackle. Andy Reid was a tackle too. But that's early generation spread offense with coaches who qbd above their lineages.

Do you know how many ocs ac struggled under? Also steveler was never an NFL prototype. Trying to force him into being one was silly. If a team did rpo and qb runs really well steveler would be a monster. I agree. Though I'd love him back I dont see money and reps working when some one else will give him atleast 250 or more and a chance to start. I think the elk could be it. He's better than Fajardo and cf over achieved in that system.

I would argue that no qb ever got any better under plop. Play calling and play book aside he was never a qbs oc.

Plop had him running lousey fake rpo crap and throwing 5 yard outs. I'd love to see what he could do with bucks playbook and what buck could do with his skill set. Imagine trying to defend counter qb Power and qb power like the ravens run but with strevy in the cfl. June Jones has applied to be the hc at Hawaii again. Probably gets the job too.

He would pretty much any rush end would but that passport is the money. That said I don't think the Bombers will have that for a 3rd de.

He's gonna run some ones offense one day. Leonard is one of the all time great at dodging tests. Up there with Wanderlei silva slipping out the window and running down the street half naked. The Jeff part 2 really stepped up in 21. He played some of the most dominant defensive games league wide last year. He's just coming into his peak too. Saw on 3dn the weekly gossip piece said they think Jones will dump both Boateng and Betts this off season. If he doesnt try to bring them back it should be a huge red flag to the elk brass. Their ni talent is already pencil thin they can't just replace a starter that easy.

Qft. I don't think any one can argue that the late year team wasn't alot better than the early year team. Long passes and big returns were added late but ba in at s and the adjustments to the d front alone were huuuge.

Actually in the modern era or football you can see tons of guys who produce as first year starters. Also Allen and flutie weren't stars by any means in their first 3 combined years.

Even then Harris looks shot. I wouldn't bank. On any of them other then Masoli being able to lead us to the play offs. And even then I don't think Masoli or Harris fi I think they fo. Collaros is the only qb that's a winner in that row. Isnt an ol fixer available either. Not even a lot for star Nis. By default the only true system changing star that can be a difference maker to a contender that could see fa is Zach. He also sat the better part of 3 games and saw lots of injuries and missed time to his wr core and star rb. Considering it was the first time in a decade the passing game carried our offense he did fantastic. It's also bucks first year as an oc. He had a lot of growth as a play caller.

I wouldn't take Harris or Masoli unless they showed serious changes in character and even then pretty much min contracts. I fully believe you can get qbs who as rookies can produce at a minimum pro level. I'd rather go with a rookie streveler Evans heavy balls etc. But at this point I don't think either young qb we have are replacement level. Rather than spending atleast 150k plus on a guy like that I'd rather the Bombers give our guys raises or maybe poach a decent rotational ni.

Yep. Good chance he starts this year. Happy he's back. Long term i think he could still be a rt in the cfl. He was done like dinner. His resurgence is one of the all time come back stories. I would think collaros values an ol over a few k at this point.

Tldr dunk is dying to write a post mortem on the Bombers where collaros leaves as a fa or he signs a giant contract that limits our ability to retain fas.

Even friesen gets it. If you asked me, a none hockey fan, If significant rule changes to the NHL would increase my interest I'd probably be inclined to say sure. Because I don't care either way. Rule changes couldn't make me less interested. It's such a stupid premise. Find former cfl fans whove fallen off and see what they have to say. Ask people who watch 1 teams games what it'd take to get them to watch more games. Ask young fans especially in ott what has pulled them In. Get useful information. This study is trash science.

https://3downnation.com/2022/01/15/why-signing-a-veteran-qb-isnt-essential-for-shawn-burke-the-redblacks/ Hilarious. Suddenly Caleb Evans is enough for a play off push. This type of attitude is exactly why the rbs have missed 3 straight play offs and are gonna do the same This year. Dane Evans is waay better and if the cats were ride or die with him they'd a been blown out in tor. Masoli plus Evans guided the cats to back to back gcs. The Bombers turned the corner twice when they made moves that added veteran qb depth in Nichols and then collaros. Every team in the league should seriously investigate every opportunity to add a vet qb this off season.
