Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
Brandon replied to johnzo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You mean when he was playing behind a 25 year old Drew Brees and Doug Flutie? He had more then 1 pass attempt compared to Terry Wilson with the Blue in his first season with us. The Blue have had opportunities to give other guys some game time and would rather roll out an obviously injured QB and/or a guy who is struggling massively. -

Did he retire? I thought he was signed through next season? -

I'm hoping we give qb's a real chance this year. No more keeping them on the bench until the 2nd last week of the season in garbage time. If Philip Rivers can start in the NFL after 5 years away from the game at the age of 44 with only 1 week of prep... why can't we give real game time to qbs who have been through training camp and months with the club. -

Not exactly true, most cities push their meth heads/bums to the side and away from where tourists and people hang out. Winnipeg is the exception where everywhere is unsafe downtown. Also nightlife in Toronto/Vancouver/Montreal is light years ahead in terms of quantity and quality. -

We had a subpar offense and nearly no pressure from the d-line last year.... instead of making clear changes to improve we bring back two guys who were partially responsible for these issues? How many times does it work when you dump a girlfriend and keep her as a friend afterwards? The smart thing is a clean break and moving on. -

Do we know how much salary Zach has in bonuses compared to his base salary? Maybe if he's stashed on the IR we can free up cash for more FA? -
I can see the Jets moving in 10 years or so. As the Jets 1.0 fans die off and less interest from the younger people it could cause them to move away (again).

Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver also have a million times better night life and city vibe. Some players want to do more then just sitting in a hotel room. -

Brandon replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Can someone break down free agents and re-signing of vets for each team and how Winnipeg on average has spend more then others. Because EVERY year on free agency on these boards people go bananas when they see Edmonton spending $50 k more for a guy like Ford, how Hamilton over paid for Lawler, how every other team blowed a tonne of money on over the hill guys.... It's a myth that Winnipeg pays more then others, if anything we are known to be a "cheap" team who isn't dropping the coin that other teams have. -

This is a terrible statement.... so they hired him because he's a nice guy that people like. Is he going to implement his special skill of running forward and dropping to the ground and then getting into the QB's face 3 seconds after the guy tossed the ball? -

Lots of examples of this. Most coaches played at least in the minor leagues. -

Can this team grow a pair of balls and cut loose guys. Hugely disappointed in this bull crap. Sign Jake + Hogan to fill the Buzz and Boomer costumes if you don't have the balls to say "good bye". Massive steps back on this club. I'm at the point of cleaning house at the top. Have we ever heard anything remotely that suggested that Jake Thomas was big in the film room and while limited on physical abilities he had the brains and the ability to dissect plays on the field. Come on now this is a joke. Hogan f'd up big time... soooo we bring him back? A complete joke. -

Brandon replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Are you suggesting that other teams have not over paid for free agents? Have we not had many discussions on here for how insane some contracts have been thrown around the league and yet those teams are able to sign multiple free agents. Didn't BC have Rourke + Adams and was still able to purchase more players? -
The streamer world with people who 24/7 live stream is such a bizarre world. It's so much fakery to entice 12 - 15 year old boys into believing it's real and for those kids to donate money to encourage the streamer to continue doing stupid ****. The stupid viewers actually think that these guys own mansions and luxury sports cars when in reality they are flat broke trying to maintain "the image". This broccoli head Jack Doherty is one of and possibly the worst. He's currently desperate for attention since his 5 minutes are up and he needs to get into altercations to get a few eyes back on him to earn some money. At some point he will end up pissing off the wrong person and end up dead. Playing with fire.

Because we signed Brady and therefore we have no money to ever sign anyone else as per a few people on here. Somehow BC is able to have guys like Rourke and also able to sign other quality free agents. -
What blows me away is the amount of people who think that Paul did good and deserves respect and is a legit top boxer. Some analysts even had Paul winning the fight which is ludicrous. Clearly Joshua (just like the others) purposely coasted up until the end. I don't think the fight was fixed but I guarantee they had some sort of agreement to have it last more then 4 rounds. I was much more entertained by Andrei Arlovski getting jumped and then kicking the crap out of Jack Doherty and his loser streamer friends backstage.

Every team on every year has money to re-sign veterans and also add new pieces in free agency. I don't believe any team has never signed any veterans and only replenished via free agency. -

MBT looked completely shot last season, it's unfortunate because he could have been a decent interim starting QB. Dustin Crum Matt Shiltz Taylor Powell Jake Maier None that I'd want to commit long term with... but maybe good enough as a stop gap. At this point it's a hope and a prayer that Zach can return to form. I hope whoever our back up is... gets reps this season. -

I'll take signing a guy with at least some proven success over a complete unknown like Hogan. It can only get better then what we had last year. If we can get a proven receiver who doesn't necessarily have to be the #1 guy in free agency but someone who has at least been consistent and healthy that would be a good start. Unfortunately the albatross of a contract with Zach really will make or break the team. He's a huge liability and has had 2 terrible seasons in a row. I don't know how Condell can fix a guy with a shot arm who throws into triple coverage at the worst times. -

Brandon replied to johnzo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
On MBB for some reason people think the Bombers have zero money to spend while every other team can sign a team full of vets and star players. Every season we go through us signing a veteran player and a few people thinking we have zero money to spend elsewhere. AFAIK the only bad contract we have now is Zach which is a big one, but most of the dead weight has been shed or will be off the books this year. -

Maybe on our team , but not on others. Part of the problem with this club of not giving chances.
