    I can't think of a single instance where a championship calibre team reset the market for any position. There is a reason for that, it's a desperation move. If BO wants to reset the market it will almost certainly have to be on a crap team. If the Bombers pay a RB 200k I would be shocked and quite disappointed frankly.

    No. But Winnipeg does have the highest paid QB. I'm guessing some of our OL (pre-haircut) have been right up there.

    Not yet!

    Ayers was one of the names revealed from our neg list this year, he's been on our radar a while.

    Bridges and his North Dakota State team won 70 of his 75 games (including his redshirt season)... played and won 12 playoff games and 4 national titles. Goes on to win the IFL championship as a first year pro. All the guy does is win! Bounced around a  couple NFL camps before landing here.

    Bring them to Fort Hew!

    An easy schedule or winning can hide or push problems to the side. Then the playoffs hit & the problems come to the fore. And boom a team that was expecting to go far or win is out. Like the Argos this year & us the past two years. 

    Or it can do the opposite: 2022 Argos, 2016 Redblacks

    Okay but look at us the past two years. You can either say that the Argos & Als fluked out two last second wins against us. Or that when we needed a stop our defense didn't get the job done. Our D didn't play up to the same high standards as our offense in the past 2 regular seasons. When we needed our D to make plays for us the past 2 years in the GC, it didn't. 

    I would say the past 2 years were an anomaly. Those happen. But on an overall average, first place teams win more championships

    Those stats mean nothing in the playoffs or Grey Cup because the teams you play are better. How many times have we seen a team have a decent or even a great regular season only to get exposed offensively or defensively in the post season? Tons. 

    First teams make up a significantly higher percentage of grey cup finalists and champions.

    I also think that Schoen doesn't have the athletic skillset that makes teams salivate at the prospect of adding a guy like Lawler, Lewis, or even Ryhmes.   He's a quality receiver but he doesn't fly off the page and part of his success is based on the team he plays for and his connection with Zack.

    Gotta disagree with you there.  He is at minimum top 5 in the league - there's only a few others that run routes and make catches the way he does.

    I'd be on the same level tech savvy wise as Davy Crockett would be if he was alive.

    Google: reddit cfl streams

    As the years go by and the average fan is more tech savy,   more people will just use the already easy to use streams that people post online.     

     

    Precisely.
