Permission to talk: Is O'Shea leaving?
Booch replied to sportmentary2012's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yup...hence he the priority signing 😁 We had weak run defence and prob poorest tackling in second level as well...indicative of weak db play Prob gave up the most big pass plays too...so fact of matter..we can get better at way less a cost and use some of that saved money for impact line play both sides of ball -

If he came out and said tc was gonna be a true competition..earn the spot...no given's this yr Vets will not be guaranteed a spot...and if you don't produce...you won't play I'm gonna take advantage of rules afforded me this yr Those would all be changes and not sure who would blast that...and thats just scratching surface of changes that should happen He hasn't changed anything since 2019...so to say he does isnt entirely accurate -
Hardrick was hardly a Rider...one partial season and cut during season...

And how much inside..tons...interior flats...I was talking bout Holm...and his area of responsibilities I've been on record saying bridges sucked...and bonds regressed But the atracking on the inside..intermediate middle...quick shots off tackle...had nothing to do with the corner...they went at Holm/Kramdi area....not Nichols...Wilson ...there a reason...they went after the weaker DB's The soft coverage for a a quick out as well can be attacking the scheme where the hb has to recognize and take away...if ...and is usually the case the outside guy runs a straight go route...how's that shot to the flat his issue....he leaves his guy and deep shot for easy 6...that's the inadequate play of the Hb and sam not reacting well enough -
Not a smart one Him and Strev tho should be a good bargain value pick up in 2027 tho

As coach used to tell us...let em know u there...u hurdling a guy on the ground..u give the ribs a lil tap...see a hand...u step on it... Yeah...there needs to be a new oc mind come in and evolve into that...use a true TE on routes...power run game with multiple looks...multiple options...with guys like Bo here..MCi..CLercius...Demski...Add a Philpot or a cruiser like Scott III to the mix...against a unsuspecting defense coordinator ..good luck with yiur undersized Lb crew handling that for 60 mins...and the secondary would part like the red sea for your burner ...twitchy receivers as they try to adjust to the meat tenderizing they getting exposed too -

Controlled violence...much needed...indeed....both sides of the ball Our back end on defence this yr..was the biggest group of powder puffs in the league..no intimidator at all We need another Stick...BEnnie T...heck even a Bovell to crush souls and make guys question the decision to prance thru our zones...teams had nary a care in world -

If it isnt...we continue to slide...late dec and early Jan will dictate what we are doing and set the narrative...at moment...I'm not optimistic...but maybe they came to the realization we need to do some significant changes right now...or be faced with a total rebuild/retool and the fact that if they flop hard again...they won't even be part of it... -

And why we have a weak...shallow and eroded roster...letting Osh soley determine worth Holm was targeted extensively the previous yr as well..not just this...and the areas that teams attacked for most part were not corner related. -

He would have with constant slide protections...moving line and pocket and throwing from different points on the field....sprint and roll outs as our basis of attack....or with a scheme where we didn't basically eliminate parts of the field and have some receivers basically schemed out of any benefit...we were screwd from get go due to an OC with zero clue -

I'm all for a vet who can play and is still athletically gifted...a couple guys here are not Actually this morning was working out the steel with the devil with Gavin Walls...that dude could probably still play and looks better than when he retired...we did some dline talk...and he even mentioned he wasnt sure what they were intending with out ends but they definitely were not being turned loose and he would have hated being in that role...and I sure our ends this yr felt the same...hopefully next yr things change -

Thats something also that ZC was never good at really either. Yeah...Holm is good...the best...irreplaceable....hardly Osh made a comment about him and fans and media just ran with it....re-watch every game...he got exposed more times than he made impactful plays...or teams schemed away from him...if anything they attacked his side of field more I don't say we have to dump him...but if we can get better...or even as good with a younger guy...a physical one as well...for half the cost almost...u do it We havnt won a cup with him so not like he was a lynchpin on defence People need to realize if u can get better...and ar game time fix the sms...u do it.. -

None those 3 should be back...ever Houston i forgot about...id have him back but has to earn his spot and be head and shoulders best CB in camp Do the veer baby lol -
Toss in Holms money...wayyyy too much for 4 guys..2..if not 3 of easily replaced As for schoen and strev...neither should be considered by any organization next yr...schoen maybe outside chance for last quarter of season but the smart thing is to take the yr off...Streveler too...
-
close to , a shade under..I was thinking Nichols salary...over 300k and for Holm and Kramdi.....prob a good 130k at minimum for Jake....still....thats 450k better used elsewhere Schoen wont even be physically ready to start any real kind of practicing until late season...he shouldnt even be considered for 2026...of ever and let them jump at him

need to have back guys as DB/cover LB guys....Nichols..Allen...Griffin...Woodbey......If cash allows....Holm......the rst of the crew....see ya later and thanks for the memories He grew on me a bit last yr....but this yr was not great....and lacks physicalityin a bug way....his bang aint worth his buck now....tome to get younger and better Kramdi isnt good...Just cause Osh says so..so some scribes here write his thoughts dont make it so.....Kramdi wouldnt start anywhere in the league at SAM....BUT saying that to you is pointless as Osh is the man....well in your eyes...you either are related...are him...or he's sleeping with you....which is it? Kramdinat north of 145K is a bargain for what you get?....man I used to think you had decent foorball knowledge -

Kolo is 150k minimum...may be a shade above...Thomas with his 121 yrs on the team isn't making chump change either...certainly well north of 110...120 k no he wasnt.....he was decent but not irreplaceable...especially at 140k...yeah he got a nod for all-star.....but he wasnt our best db by any stretch We would be just fine replacing him and be no worse for wear...and save a pile of cash...and become a more physical group....one that can tackle effectively...consistently -
Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Booch replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Jake was signed here in mid sept......not 2 weeks....so not sure where you pulling that info from.....he had ample time to know a basic package at minimum....and all offenses really are based on same stuff...minor deviations...different venacular....so to say from sept to nov he would have had no understanding is laughable...and if that truly was the case...which it wasnt...thats just more indication that Osh and his coaching and having guys prepared is god awful shitty...and his re-upping is a major blunder... He had ample experience league wide and time here to do something...and he is hardly immobile... Wilso...with zero experience...prob even less practice reps....yeah thats an indicator Dolegala would have done nothing....I guess it's just hard for some to accpet Dera Leader chose wrong guy to put in....to go with his poor in gam decisons and roster creation maybe a guy with ability to throw would not have had lame ducks tipped at line?...theres a thought....and I sure the injury was in his head and affected his total throwing mechanics...usually happens when YOU CANT GRIP A BALL Best chance to win for sure eh?...hahahahaha People have to accpet..Osh screwed us out of likely 3 wins in the Cup with his piss poor HC work...Facts....People can say some players just didnt perform" and again....that points right back again to poor coaching and unpreparedness, and poor player choise....who was responsible for those factors..Oh yeah...HC People tug his sac in regards to the 2 wins....they can tug it with the losses too -
we had a lot of guys tho in prime...and had some yrs ahead of them still This Sssk squad was a win now or be out of the running for a while....They not in a position roster wise to run it back multiple yrs...so there's a difference there... If we do a legit re-tool...moreso in the way we go about things roster/player wise....hire a real OC...I can see the west next yr being a B.C/us battle for 1st....with Stamps pushing... That's a big if tho as first look to me...I don't see a lot of deviation ....but it is early....but we also should have already been on record with who is not being brought back...player and coach's....

With what he is about to make for 2026...what BO could be pulling in...tho I think he as good as gone with Osh back....need for a legit #1...Demski's money, oline issues and quickfix is FA signings...do we even have the ability cash wise to surround him with the best we can find?....doubtful...unless we cut and scrimp elsewhere and bastardize the roster even further to make the remote chance of ZC being elite even a possibility But...possible way is to remove salaries of KOLO...Tomas..Kramdi..Wilsom....Holm...Gauthier...Hallett....they all outlived their bang for buck value...a few of which never deserved the buck they were eating -

Booch replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yeah...was gonna say...unless that was his twin brother with same name lol And in the yr in question...Dolegala had played plenty up to that point ..I guess the yr previous throwing for just under 2700 yards...11 tds vs 9 ints was just pretend and didnt happen and would have no clue how to play QB on a vet laden team...yup... But the poster said he didn't take a snap in 2 yrs. Basically confirming many of his posts are a load of **** -
