Was watching the pre-game show. Naylor and Farhan said that MOS was making all the decisions since the middle of the yrear & that Walters hadn't been offered a new contract yet. IF that's the case, then I could see Walters moving on.

You folks sure are getting your panty's in a twist over something we've all known was going to happen for more than a month.
Kelly was the starting QB for the team that tied for the most regular season wins in the league ever. He was against Brady O who had the most rushing yards for a Canadian in a season but was not in the top 5 CFL rushing seasons overall.
If Brady played for the Argos, he'd have won.

Montreal is a good team. They won't be worried about playing us like a lot of teams. Beating the top team in the league by wins was huge for them last week. They are deeply invested in the 'Us against the World' storyline.
We look better in most categories, but Toronto looked better too. I don't think they have the players to beat us straight up, but a couple breaks going their way could tip the scales.
They have the D to control Brady O and a running game which means it won't be like it was last week against BC.
Their O is a ton of short shots with the occasional deep shot. They have to hit some of those deep shots to have a shot.
I'm hoping for a close game, cuz blowouts are boring to me.

I can't stand GC parties. I just want to watch the game. In fact, I sent my wife to a GC party without me once. Yah, just the once.

I watch every game every season. I've maybe missed 3 games in the last decade.

Congrats to @MOBomberFan!
I fought the good fight but it looks like I was bested again this year.

thing is tho...Put ZC....The Vaj, Dru Brown....heck even Maier in that spot, and the Argo's record is exactly the same...he wasn't a difference maker by any means
The fact he hasnt really even played full games much of the last bit and they still kept trucking ...right there tells you it's not a team he put on his back and willed them to win
I'll give you Zach and VAJ (2 QB's also in the MOP discussion), but Brown and Maier? Come on. You're usually better than that.
Let's say we had to replace Zach with Brown this year, we didn't miss a beat and won more games than we did last year. Wouldn't you expect Brown to be the MOP of the team & likely the league MOP? I would.

You don't think our front office knows how to add and project costs year to year?
Not what I said nor what I meant.
I think we are at the top end of the SMS, maybe slightly over. That means we need to cut vet or two to make room for Schoen's much bigger salary next year. Paying two receivers top dollars means skimping somewhere else.

What happened prior to this season should have no bearing on the vote.
A sophomore QB with one start under their belt being a difference maker is a huge story. It's bound to have a bearing on the vote.

Why are people assuming they don't have a plan to keep Schoen and Lawler?
Cost.

He has worse numbers than collaros and barely played the last 4 weeks.
He isn't up against Collaros for the MOP. He hasn't played much in the last 4 weeks because Toronto has been guaranteed 1st in the east for the last 6 weeks.

We can't afford to pay both Schoen and Lawler top dollars. I'd take Schoen over Lawler.

1. Like that the coaches found a way to exploit the rule. Can't see any good way to 'fix' the rule. Gotta go 10 yards means blocked punts have to go 10 yards past the LOS before that kicking team recovers to keep the ball. Right now it's just past the LOS which is why the dribble kick works.
2. If Zach struggles, we leave him in to right the ship. Dru did well against Calgary who only won 6 games & who didn't pressure him all game long, but that's not a likely WF scenario.
3. I doubt that either Brown or Steveler will be on the Bombers next year.

TBurgess laughs. Why am I not surprised??? BTW, I agree with you Mark F. Let's hope that bogus play is eliminated this off season.
It's a great play that ueses the rules as written. Nothing at all the matter with it. Any team could do it.

Even if that’s true. What could we offer Brown? He’ll at the very worst get 1 B money else where.
I agree.
31 minutes ago, JuranBoldenRules said:Well we know this isn't what happens when you have 3-4-5 teams involved. Arbuckle was simple because there were two teams in the QB market and one of them wanted the veteran.
The only other person who will be a free agent and is a potential starter is Dane Evans. Based on recent performance, everyone's top choice will be Brown.
There's pretty low level risk for teams like Sask, Ottawa, Calgary when their current starters can't win a game.
It's not like we're talking about dumping a productive vet for a younger guy anywhere but here. Everyone else's QB situation is awful outside of Winnipeg and Toronto.
Realistically, it's Ottawa, Hamilton, or Regina and any of those teams could decide to just keep their vet QB instead.
Shultz & Evans both have way more experience which means they are less risky to move forward to #1.

If Arbuckle got 32 chances to become a starter teams will be looking at Brown. Remember the Bombers post Kevin Glenn era? It was rough and we were desperate for many years. All those teams you mentioned Brown would instantly be the best QB on their roster
Arbuckle got a ton of chances and never lived up to his 'potential'. He's the perfect example of why you don't give a young QB a starting job with a bunch of money. You give them a chance to compete for the starting job, a lowish base salary with a bunch of bonuses for being THE guy.
I disagree that Dru would be the best QB on most of those teams.
Call it what you want … you need to move on from Collaros

Last week the big argument was that Collaros was the best QB in the league by far so Kelly shouldn't get the MOP. Now folks want to fire the man?
