Zach Schnitzer

Leake would be awesome, so would getting Grant back from the Argos and correcting a big whiff from this past offseason.

definate home run hitter...Imagine him and BO lined up in backfield together in some sets...or him weaving around in motion?....defence having to decide who to focus on at snap?

He impressed me with being more than one dimensional (KR), i.e., showed he can also line up in the back field and be effective.

Leake would be my number 1 target for sure
 

Saw that Leake is a FA from the Elks too. He would be a nice add as returner and rotational RB. Brady and him as thunder and lightning.

Thoughts on season to date.....even tho not finished, and even tho a Cup win at the end is the marker of success I am of the thought that regardless of what occurs now this has to be considered a success of sorts
We have effectively had a pretty significant transition, tho not by choice it did happen....and somewhat alleviates the fear of going into a 2025 home Cup run that we would have leaned and relied on this aging and underperforming corp
We will re-sign both Lawler and Schoen...you can bank on that and with the 3 young kids showing they have the chops....and another off-season and TC of growth we in good shape there, and any new body that blows the lights out in TC/Pre-season is just another bee in the hive for us
Defensively I think we have found our 2 legit ends to compliment WJ in Garbutt and Person's....even tho you all havn't seen him take a rep...he's the real deal nd he was a legit NFL pass rush specialist prospect...they wanted him to gain weight for that role but he didnt go that route and he is a perfect blend for the CFL....So again even with Haba here and anyone else we bring in....we will have depth...Haba is a real nice 4th guy. WE have those 2 legit ends with WJ...and just let him loose to attack the QB with 60% of snaps...look out...Thats where he thrives
D-line wise...Fox..Woods..Adams with another yr...only gonna get better...And logic has to tell you Lawson takes Thomas' snaps...god willing and again...thats a net positive....I don't hink Schmeck fits in there and Samson or possibly a 2025 draft pick or a Global takes his spot . That was a serious area of concern...last yr...going into this yr and a wholesale change for 2025 would likely not been the best way to go....and the fear of just rolling withThomas would have been the way Osh leans....Be interesting what Osh does with him next yr...is he even signed?
Linebacker to...with Jones..Ayers...Cole...we are good...anyone who comes in and pushes them out...even better, and Biggie wont be back to Labour day earliest...and even then..age...body type...i have a hard time seeing him being in the mix...and id we cant unearht a new stud...Wilson as the DA...limited packages...depth...ST leader....we could do way worse
We now need to tweak/fine tune the defense for most part in 2025...People love Holm but he really is the weak link...Griffin would offer a lot more...already does....and we are pretty good at finding DB's...I would think a role for Holm would be the 6th...and Nationalized and used in various spots....mainly that role they tried with Hallett....as he was continuously burned...interesting enough we haven't seem much of that of late so obviously the coaching did notice that....now time to notice SchmeckThomas
I think our area of focus has to be mainly O-line and returner in free -agency/draft/scouting... I am fine with Bryant as he has not regressed and during the streak he was lights out...But there will be others in free agency to go after, and I can't not see us going after some....I would also be fine with Neuf back, but in the role of Wallace/Eli....and if Grant is available....I'd be all over that again...I'd also bring Lucky back to compete in camp
all in all....we in good shape heading into 2025

MOP is something I think the CFL gets wrong.  Would rather see an MVP award ... football is a team sport and I think team impact should be the primary criteria for the award.
And I think Brady is the obvious choice for an MVP award: without him, the bombers aren't a playoff team, and I think you can say the same for Josh Hardy out east.

Ya I clearly mistyped... Our DBs are absolutely better. Ford and Nichols for sure. Basing MODP votes on INT stats is bullshit...

9-49, 12-42, 11-43 rushing. 
9-80, 1-9, 6-60 receiving. 
thats 283 yards from scrimmage over 3 games with him. Averaging out to 16 touches yielding 94.33 yards per game. That, in warm weather. 
 I’m mainly concerned if we will use Brady enough. 
 He’s a real hard guy to take away from the O. You can’t really be aggressive in the gaps and the flats with out massive down field problems. 
 I’d really like to see us send Brady on a wheel deep. Teams struggle to get to the flats on him, send him deep and they will have nightmares. 

Sask secondary and pass defence is one worst in league.....but they have MOP Milligan! lol
If they beat B.C which I doubt....I sure ZC will have a game plan to carve em up...then we release the hounds when they try and adapt

Given the rule that it’s not reviewable unless it’s called a turnover I think refs should just err on the side of caution if it’s close and just call it a turnover and let the CC get it right. It shouldn’t be about whether you’re “embarrassing” the refs, just about getting it right. I think most educated fans understand that close calls need replay and the refs are just human. 
Like they did in the first half of LDC where Zach had 218 yards! 

The only thing I could see was that maybe he bobbled it and didn’t have full control?

I am concerned about Sask’s run defence though. Brady got like 40 yards against each. However, he was very effective as a receiver vs Sask which is something we’ll see more of should Sask make it to wf

Is it actually a rule though? From their own press release in August, the CFL says the CC can overturn a call that was clearly and obviously wrong.  I thought this one was pretty clear that it was an interception and a quick review would have shown that.  I think part of the problem (at least this season) is they decided mid-season to change how the CC is supposed to work.  To me, that should have been an off-season decision so they could have given the officials/coaches time to adjust and all get on the same page.

Its the same problem as when a fumble occurs and the refs let it play through. They call it a fumble even though that is not what they actually saw, and because of the ruling on the field it cant be overturned cause it needs clear and obvious evidence to overturn.
   To me the answer is on both potential fumble and interceptions   the play needs to be reviewed using slow motion etc to get call right.
The clear and obvious criteria is good for pass interference and other infractions as the officials call them as they actually see it

This is what drives fans nuts.  If it was ruled an interception, it would’ve been automatically reviewed, but if it’s maybe an interception and not ruled as such, it’s not?  That needs to change.  And what the hell is the criteria for the CC to buzz down and intervene?  They jump in on a random, pointless illegal motion that doesn’t really affect a play, but don’t feel it’s necessary when a turnover is missed?  Come on.

If happy good Vaj shows up...I see that...Sask secondary is suspect and bad, even with Mr. MODP..MOP....and really nobody in the Sask receiving corp screams dangerous.....and you have Harris at the helm....guy will wilt and fade...always does, so if it gets into some kind of shoot out...I dont see Sask keeping pace with a dialed in Vaj....just hope they both slap the crap outta each other and come in beat up and tired...tho don't think it gonna matter

both TSN and CJOB really nailed the call on that last play... I was listening at the time since I wasn't near a TV. 

Nope. https://cfldb.ca/rulebook/instant-replay/command-centre/#r10s2a2
