Love how supportive the boys are to each other on social media. You can tell it’s a tight knit crew. Love it!!

Hell of a career loved watching him play. Still was putting up close to double digit sacks per season before he retired.

Collaros’s knows his career was almost over before coming to Winnipeg. He knows the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. He has a great opportunity to add to a late career legacy on a well coached team, good offense and most importantly a well protected offense. I can’t see him taking the money and running to a place that won’t offer him those things.Winnipeg will give him a good offer, with a chance to three peat and a chance to keep him healthy again for 18 games.

Kind of like refusing to blow into a breathalyzer in my opinion.

ZC has it good here. A chance to three peat, a chance to win another MOP award but most importantly a chance to continue to stay protected. This is the only time in his career he’s had an elite o-line keep him healthy. I don’t see a scenario of him leaving. Like Jefferson and Jeffcoat he will sign a little under market value but he’ll still get a nice pay day he realizes the importance this stage of his career of continuity, staying healthy for a life after football, and to continue to add rings and awards to his legacy.

If Dinwiddie didn’t turn into dim-widdie and ran the ball for a first down there’s a chance we would have squeaked one out. Our D was actually very good that day.

I don’t really blame the Lions. They are a bad team. Lucky was one of their standout players. Sometimes you need to over pay at the start to get that continuity.

Another year of controlling the line of scrimmages on both sides of the ball! Keep em coming Walty.

Perfect! Great Canadian vet who can play anywhere on the line. Much better as a guard but I digress if we can sign Biggie, Collaros, Alexander, and bring back 2/3 of our Canadian running backs I would be a very happy and satisfied man.

Jackson at 175 is a bargain. Both combined for 200 I can live with. They’re absolutely worth it combined. Both could probably get easily an extra 25k somewhere else so glad to have them both locked in under market value.

Ha! I was reading the rider board this morning. I was assured he was going to be making around 160 tops 😄

Maybe they can give him a 100 thousand dollar bonus in his other “job”

Weird. Looking at his stats. He had 400 yards, 4 tds, completed 66 percent of his passes and zero interceptions and never played football again after that season. Does anyone know why his career ended so abruptly? I was too young at the time I couldn’t tell you anything about those late 90’s teams haha

Collaros likes this.

Back to back champs. NFL is going to be looking at our young talent and giving them serious looks. This is to be expected. I won’t ever be upset to see guys chase their dream. Football is a short career go make your money if you can. If not come back to Winnipeg and win another ring. That simple 😉

If Winnipeg had Joe Mack in charge and we were anything like that 2012-2013 club there’s absolutely no chance Harris would be coming home to play for us. People can say players wanted to come play for us and that’s absolutely true but that’s because we created a winning culture and winning organization.

Yeah we kind of earned that reputation over time with team culture, and the eventual playoff success. We were nobodies number one option in 2014 or 2015.

Wicker is an interesting signing. Had a good college career. He was up to 315 pounds while in the NFL. I’m thinking he’ll have to shed some weight since he only stands around 6’2.

Anyone who used phrases like “this isn’t debatable” or “this isn’t up for discussion” I instantly get weary of. Everything is open to interpretation, everything is meant to be debated, there is very little 100 percent certainty in the world of discussion.

It’s weird to think Taman is only 55 years old. He’s looked like he’s been in his fifties for twenty plus years.

Tamans ultimate down fall was that he didn’t value Canadian talent the same way Walters has. He was consistently trading picks and our depth was horrendous. When guys like Dave Donaldson and Marcus Howell are a staple stone there’s going to be trouble.

Keep em coming Walty

Toronto would be a good place for him. Even a washed up Bo is better then MBT

I couldn’t care less. If anything gives us another chip on the shoulder next season. The league obviously wants to hype up interest with the other teams in the league so that it doesn’t look so lopsided I don’t blame the media and the CFL’s best interest in that regard better for us if anything. You don’t think all that talk about Hamilton having a super team in 2021 after we beat them in 2019 gave us that extra chip on the shoulder? We absolutely kicked them in week one. The worst thing a team can do is believe the hype.

Which ring is my favourite ring? The next one! Complete faith in the guys in charge to put us in a position to go for a three peat.
