Hamilton D looks like they got the Jones playbook down...not sure of some of these hits

Any time a team comes off a coach firing I am wary. Jones is a terrible human but also a pretty good DC so that worries me, especially with our offensive struggles.

if u dont think he hd one foot out the door and if that season didnt turn around, that he would have been canned than you are very mistaken....and he was basically had to be made to make some certain changes
He also got 10 yrs as well....so wins will addup....never said he wasnt a good coach, but he gets more credit than deserved...he definitely was part of it....but not the be all main reason
Sure maybe there are different timelines where he isn't successful but you can say that about anyone and anything. All we know is how it played out here. He didn't just "get" ten years here, he's earned them. There's a reason it's a rare accomplishment.

He wasn't really to be honest....and lotsa bad decisions.....and if wasn't for some intervening from higher ups basically mandating a change...he may not have got to 30 wins....but was given some rope and leeway and it panned out.....tho he still carries some of the bad traits that almost cost him his job then tho...but has learned from some of his past mistakes...maybe another 100 wins and he will have fixed the rest but wont hold my breath...they key for 2025 is Waler's and Miller taking away some of his stupid options so he has no choice but to move on from them
You are certainly entitled to your opinion and you've made it very, very well known. You're basically spamming the board at this point. He isn't perfect by any means but he's the second-winningest coach in Bomber history and led us out of the worst era we had in a long time. It ain't a fluke. The guy is a really darn good coach.

I remember when we hired O'Shea, thought it was another "same old Bombers" move. He looked like he'd get a HC chance eventually but didn't think he was ready for the opportunity yet. So happy to have been so, so wrong. He has been the best Bomber coach I've ever seen, similarly the most successful Bomber era I've ever seen. Also just a really genuine and good guy, from what we've seen and been told.

In all seriousness I think Rourke is a really good player who will get back to being a good QB in the league. I do however think it's disrespectful to the entire league when people - mostly the media - act like anyone will come in and just dominate from their first snap again.
-
I for one would like to hear more about the Rourke-Adams relationship. I need Suitor to assure me again that its great. Strong. Best it's ever been. Maybe get Farhan to give me sideline chatter about how the two exchange hugs every fifteen minutes to keep their relationship strong.

Into third place, tie breakers with BC and Calgary. Offense still needs some work but they've improved. Defense looks strong. Just keep on going, week by week.
Whole team looking a bit more like we are used to.

Spot on the sack is insane! Rourke kept spinning back and he got forward progress lol.
-
There are about ten ref calls a game now that confuse everyone. Even TSN is dancing around it and scared to have an opinion.
-
Refs gonna ref this one despite a clear fumble. Did you see how they had no urgency or desire to sort that out?
-
-
I wonder if Adams is going to be out longer?
-
-
Man this league loves to see the refs on TV
-
Crum is a mess. Completely blew it.
