Personally, I would be quite happy if the Bombers signed ZC ASAP and sent Toronto the draft pick.     A first round draft pick has some value, but a Grey Cup winning QB is well worth it.
(Not saying I think it will happen, just that it would make me happy.)    Remember, he signed in Saskatchewan even though his wife had ties to Ontario, so I wouldn't rule it out.

I'm a fan of both Collaros and Nichols, but I realize it isn't realistic to have both.

Funny thing is, I'm not sure that the play is actually over.  (Technical detail)   If Hansen never made contact with the returner, but rather the contact was made by the Hamilton player, then there is an argument to be made that he wasn't touched, and wasn't down by contact with a Bomber.     
I was at the game and saw it live fairly close up, and it gave me goosebumps.

IMHO, we need to sign MOS.   Far and away most important, more so than any one player, as much as I love them.    Long term stability at the top is what builds dynasties.   I want the Bombers to be a dynasty, not just a flash.     I'm a long term season ticket holder (since 1970), and I've seen the high's and lows over decades .   What I've seen for the last number of years is a competitive team that players want to come to.  Credit to Wade Miller, Kyle Walters and MOS for that.  When you build the right culture, the victories will come.

Lotta revisionist history about Nichols. He took deep shots and completed deep shots before he was injured. During that 7-2 run, we had the highest-producing offense in the league and our red zone production was off the charts. 

I like his thinking..
 

Must sign? Oshea. 
 

A small add, since I haven't seen it mentioned, apologies if it has already:
 
Much has been made of Lapolice's tactic of "going against tendency" in the GC which was employed to a very positive effect. I'm not sure anyone went into what might have been if it didn't work. There would have been howls over him going with an approach that wasn't proven and was not what brung ya to the dance. It would have 100% been Lapo's chesnuts in the fire if it had not been successful. I've seen praise for his strategic elan, but none for his guts.
 
Ballsy.

To me it's about situational football. If we had needed more from our offense more would have been asked of them. As it turned out, what was needed was a steady, move the ball, capitalize on field position, protect the football type of offense and that's exactly what we did. Many times I saw Harris and the boys wrap both arms around that football whenever they went into traffic. Hamilton knew they needed turnovers and you could see them reaching in trying to pry the ball away. We gave them nothing and that's exactly what we needed to do. Harris scored early on the ground and Strevs threw a beauty ball to Harris for another TD. That was all we needed on offense. Medlock gave us bonus points and locked things away. 
Sure the defense was spectacular. Our D made it a day from hell for Dane Evans because they couldn't keep him clean and had no answer for it, max protect or not. Meanwhile, our O-line kept our QB clean and effective.
Add in the beauty work on special teams and you have a complete team effort worthy of winning a championship. NO ONE afterwards claimed that we were lucky to win. We weren't. We earned it by playing a top-level game with 60 minute contributions from offense, defense, and special teams. It was a perfect game, really. For that, we owe our thanks to the HC, OC, and DC. They were terrific and this fan has nothing to complain about.

well sure...but again...we never gave it back with a turnover and even tho we didn't score all TD's..we still got points and kept it at a 2 score lead all game pretty much...and people forget that Ticats were the apparent top defense in league...you have to give them some due even though we smacked them around....and again...it's a 3 phase game, along with a turn over ratio battle and t.o.p thing...both of which we won as well.
The other team is trying too ya know...it seems that some folks think that we should just score TD's at will...I'll take a offence where we rarely turn over the ball and score 28+ points a game on average..and generally win the t.o.p battle...which keeps other teams from scoring any day...and yeah if it's in conjunction with the defense getting us the ball back a lot..even better...it is a team game after all..
I truly think many here would, will and do complain about something incessantly regardless of out come and can never be happy or content...and to be honest in my opinion are a bunch of assbags for it..but whatevs..if it makes you happy...........
We waltzed through playoffs..soundly beat 3 teams on the road to end a 29 year drought and people are complaining on how did it..or didn't do it...or could of..or should of did it better...give your collective heads a shake man

if we put up 33 and lost...then I'd be all over the defense..as that part of the TEAM failed us....do you not grasp concept of football as a total team sport and end results are a reflection of the sum of the parts..and generally if 2 of 3 main phases falter..you lose?

I'm no Pollyanna by any stretch of the imagination but some of these posts criticizing our play calling on Sunday border on the bizarre quite frankly.

So, let me get this straight: when the offense succeeds it’s because of Collaros and Harris and how skilled they are, no credit to our offensive coordinator whatsoever.
But when the offense struggles in any way whatsoever, now THAT has nothing to do with players or their execution but is instead 100% on the OC and his schemes and calls?
 Your reasoning, as presented, is a classic illustration of a phenomenon called fundamental attribution error or confirmation bias.
Look it up… It’s a real thing. And you are in its grip.
 
 
 
 
 

was total team effort...the defense ruled the day and the offence did what they had to to put it away and not eff it up with stupid turnovers themselves...thats winning football
