Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
BBlink replied to johnzo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Agree. I'm looking for guys that are taking the next step. I think Brissett is one of those -

Yeah which I don't think we have in house. Unless you think Wheatfall has any more to give. Who do you like from the league free agent list? All 3 are a meh. Willie in a rotational role but I don't think he'd play for that kind of money. -

Looking at the BB free agent list...I'm not sure there's anyone left we really NEED to sign. Is there anyone who you think we should sign? Successful offseason thus far. Time to start looking at other teams' free agents IMO. I'm still thinking Brissett from Toronto would be a great add. -

That's awesome. The existing ones were starting to have problems. Glad they are on top of this -

Not sure about the center thing. I think that just helps our overall performance. I agree tho that Wallace is the guy that will need to take a step or he will be the 6th o lineman. LG could be primarily an American position this year -

We needed to do something with that o-line. Hopefully Tui steps up. -

I like Justin Hardy. Consistent 1000 yard guy. How about someone like Dejon Brissett? Big target, Canadian, makes a lot of plays. Nearly 1000 yards last year. Seems like a good fit for Zach. Hardy, Demski and Brissett play the slots. Wilson plays WR where he seems to excel. Clercius plays the forgotten WR spot. Then you have 4 Canadians in skilled positions which will let you play more Americans on the OL and protect our QB. Have Cobb, Corcoran and a Canadian OL to back up. -

Wilson and Lawson no-brainer signings. Very good players that shouldn't break the bank. -

'22 you are obviously going to run it back given you just won a GC. '23 you were a random Chad Kelly away from winning the GC so I could see running it back. '24 You just lost a close one against Montreal. But cracks are starting to form. '25 you absolutely **** the bed against the Argos in the grey Cup. That should have been an indication it was time to shake things up. Instead we brought everyone back again minus Lawler and signed some questionable FAs. Obviously we could have made much better long term improvements in that entire duration. Don't get me wrong. I just think how we went into this year was inexcusable. -
Permission to talk: Is O'Shea leaving?
BBlink replied to sportmentary2012's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
It's an idea. I'd try to bring an American on to join that backfield. -
I guess I'm used to Bomber home games where the home team is insanely loud. I guess they aren't selling many tickets in Regina so that might have been a home game feel for them.
-
Bingo. It is a miracle we did anything this year with the lines we had. Montreal got away with their paltry d line against us. But tonight it really showed how deficient they were Well when you compare them with the 8 fans Montreal brought, yeah. Didn't seem like Bomber fans cared enough to pick up the slack. It wasn't particularly loud.

Permission to talk: Is O'Shea leaving?
BBlink replied to sportmentary2012's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I was at the point where I was fine either way. But now that Osh is back I hope he takes his own advice and learns from this past season. You can't just roll with the same guys forever. Vets are good, but they can't be the washed up, banged up, career is up kind. This offseason will be very telling. -

Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
BBlink replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Count me out for trading Elgersma. He's the only guy that is really exciting me as a future QB for us. We need to go all in on rebuilding our o line and then pass the torch to Elgersma. -
We had 3 DEs that showed more last week than our 2 veterans have all year. Our D line sucked. Could have been the difference.
-
Completely agree. It is crazy to me how we made the playoffs with the guys we had in the trenches on both sides of the ball.
-
Really nice to see some ferocity and pressure by our D Line which has been absent all year. But we will play Vaughters who has been basically invisible because he's a vet. MCI. Was blown away by his speed. Wow. Defense in general was great. ST was pretty good. Offense was pretty Abysmal outside of Petterson. But expected without Collaros, Demski and Pokey.
-
There was definitely something about us losing out in a 4 way tie. Not sure about the 3 way tie. But that seems likely as well
-
Execution has gone down the shitter
-
The offensive execution, barring a couple drops by Wilson, has been pretty good. But the play calls. My god
