Seems they've run out of ways to try and bugger us up....What a load of nonsense...like someone said, IF he can't be reached get a hold of Miller, O'Shea or Walters....AND because they didn't this suspension should be null and void....Zack would be the last player in the league trying to avoid testing... One game suspension.......nonsensical and waaaaay over the top
The CFL league office should be the ones drug-tested.

Cause collaros was oh so helpful the last 3 grey cup games....
He was helpful in the WF (19-26, 301, 4 TDs). He wasn't sacked in that game, which has much to do with pivot performance - just ask Mahomes.

I can't believe anybody would disagree that having Brown would have been better. Let's just pretend we can do the hindsight thing, even though a number of posters including myself begged bomber management to make a different decision than the offseason. Brown is playing at least as good as Zach and he's much younger. How hard is it in this league to develop a quarterback? We did it and then we shipped em off. It's so hard to fathom that it hurts my gut.
Ironically, Toronto let Zach go to keep Ricky Ray, who didn't last much longer.

Just a reminder that the Grey Cup is in B.C. in a dome this year. Cold weather won’t be a reason for reduced QB performance in the final this year.
ZC had a solid game there in the 2014 GC.

Craig should shorten his last name to the first four letters.

well no need to get full dressed if u not gonna participate....but he there...going through the process....not too concerning....he's one of those vets who really doesnt even need to practice anyway
To my knowledge, they've not signed another QB. That's good news. Perhaps Zach will dress as the emergency pivot.

I'm sure that Strev has made more money flirting with the NFL, but it may have cost him an opportunity to have a long and successful CFL career. Presuming his fiery competiveness, though, it's easy to see how he would take the road he chose, and I doubt if he regrets it.

Expect Adams back next week so there shouldn't be a qb issue for them.
Unless he decides to throw six picks.

I have to wonder if Kelly pulled himself out of the game after being below average the entire first half?
Just a conspiracy theory for now..but something to watch for considering his known attitude problems in the past.
I have to wonder. It seemed like he didn't make much of an effort to walk it off, and normally they just tape you up, sending you back in. Zach's injury last year seemed much worse, but he did everything he could before bowing out.

I just watched the highlights because I'm not as strong as the rest of you.
The sequence where Harris threw to the same corner 4x in a row, with the last one being intercepted in the endzone, was pretty weird. Don't think I've ever seen a QB lock in on a piece of turf like that before.
What highlights? I didn't see no stinking highlights. 🤣

The Mouse doesn't have CBS on his ships.
Most cables don't have CBSSN, either. Not only that, but CBS took the Bomber game off at half on Saturday and put on soccer. I had to register online and scour the network site for the stream. It had every team and league listed except the CFL. CBS is worse than ESPNBA-so much for building viewership down here. Maybe CFL+ will work out.

CFL Convert - not sure if you ever saw this "Engraved on a Nation" documentary that TSN did on that plane crash, but you might find it interesting. We have not forgotten here in Canada about that tragic event.
Apologies - all I can find is the trailer on Youtube. Not sure if these episodes can still be found online anywhere.
I had no idea it
existed. Thanks for letting me know.

I've always liked this look.
Throwbacks 2010.
This post and along with the week's "Battle of Steubenville" contest (Collaros vs Najee Murray) brings to mind a sad story of another Steuby grad with Canadian experience, Calvin Jones. Cal was an All-State, All-American 1955 Outland Trophy winner with the Iowa Hawkeyes. When the Winnipeg Blue Bombers offered him MORE money than the NFL, he went north. Calvin had a good year and made the league all-star team. He slept in and missed his morning flight home, taking a later plane. It crashed leaving no survivors. Jones is celebrated in his home town with a monument outside venerable (1933) Harding Stadium. His storied rival in college was Ohio State's Jim Parker who went on to a HOF career with the Baltimore Colts. Cal was the first African-American to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine, and his number is one of only two to be retired at Iowa, the other being that of legendary Nile Kinnick. Steubenville kids all know his story and are inspired to this day.

Interesting update - I'm watching the Riders and the USFL playoff game at the same time. Garrett Marino just got called for a personal foul for the Michigan Panthers.

Bad enough the jerseys LOOK awful but they're so hard to read the numbers and names. Feel for the broadcasters... Been there.
I know everyone says TO needs to be good or the league will fold but MAN I want Chad Kelly to suck so bad. Such a cocky prick. Needs humbling.
I saw Kelly play for Buffalo St. Joe against Steubenville High School. His team lost, and he had several tantrums. You could see the talent, but the attitude was terrible. He.took a lot of hits that night.

I should have prefaced my comment by saying I'm not trying to discourage discussion, but the very obvious lack of understanding of basic football on the part of some is just baffling.
There's ONE football to go around, we need to run the ball as well, nevermind the time spent on defence too. We're not going to have four or five 1,000 yard receivers. This isn't Madden.
Oh. And Kenny Lawler is coming back eventually too. Here's the reality: There's going to be a very good receiver on our roster that maybe has in the neighbourhood of 500-700 yards this season - and that doesn't mean whatsoever that they had a bad year. There's just only so much opportunity to be had with as many mouths to feed that we have.
Also, keep in mind that they ran the ball on first down for most of the second half against Hamilton and most of the fourth this week. If pressed, the passing yardage could have been off the charts.

2024/2025 CFL (non-Bomber) Off-Season Thread
in Blue Bomber Discussion
Posted
Just happened to put on the Michigan-Arlington UFL game and within seconds, I heard, "Hands to the face, defence, number 44." None other than Garrett Marino. The more things change...
