Agreed. Especially compared to what he had in Saskatchewan. Receivers were ok, but that OL was terrible.

I have absolutely no doubt, that ZC's career was rejuvenated by playing with top notch talent around him.

In the GC itself, yes. But I don't think they achieve 4 consecutive west division championships - without ZC under centre.

He probably weighed the odds of Calgary unearthing anyone better he is - and found them to be in his favour.

If I had to choose, a Bryant type would be a real easy decision.

Someone will sign him as a backup.

I agree with his premise. But man - editing is not what it used to be.

I visualized your reaction...and did the same.

Those amounts are maximums - are they not?

Then we agree. This is more what I'm referring to. As compared to all check downs, previous to ZC.

But even so, the last 2 years have tipped the balance a bit too much.

When Zach arrived in 2019, from his very first start, the ball was going downfield more. This continued under Buck. That's always going to be a cornerstone of the O, no matter who the OC is - so far there is no evidence to prove otherwise

Will they NFL or not NFL...that is the question?

ZC is going to chuck it downfield. The best thing they can do for the offense...is field personnel who can best make that work.

Yep. He and Ceresna were outstanding, and will be again next year.

I'm surprised by the amount of rope Steinauer is getting in Hamilton.

Main place is on the creek at Petersfield. His best buddy Rick moved to BC. Rick is about 5 feet tall, was always a good time with those two

He lives on Netley Creek, so probably more than you want to know about #locallegend

As long has he puts his hat on straight - and doesn't lean forward the entire game

Changed the title to better reflect the overall content of the thread.

My thoughts exactly - this was mostly the reason I wasn't expecting the Bombers to win the GC.

He still comes out to the south basin. Those American ice fishers are a key part of the local economy. I am sure they keep several hotels and motels in business The LC's don't mind them either. 😁

Fair comment. But we did rely more on the running game and short yardage, for which purpose he had the best players available

I agree, but we also need to concede that Nichols had a much better supporting cast Bryant in his prime, with Bond beside him at LG, later on Desjarlais - those guys were just outstanding If what I type matters...then there are serious problems. 😄

I need to stock up on popcorn...for when Fajardo signs with the Bombers...
