2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
blue85gold replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Thanks for this great summary. I wish there were more games from this era available to re-watch. Fuzzy memories from 20+ years ago just aren't the same for me. -
Former Coach Dave Ritchie Passes away
blue85gold replied to iHeart's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
RIP Dave. I became a hardcore fan watching those 2000 - 2004 bombers. -
Fair enough. He does like to hold on to the ball to make the big play. Taking more hits can lead to hesitating and taking even more hits.
-
Every QB gets hit sometimes, some more than others. Gotta keep it as low as possible. What I meant was it wasn't time catching up to Collaros, it was the number of hits he took last year that was the issue.
-
Keep him clean and it won't be an issue.
-
That makes a lot of sense to me too. Easier to sign for less now when you have the chance to show that you can take over for the old guy over the next couple years.
-
Even worse since we're a couple months into 2024 now!

Can't ever fault a guy for trying to get paid for the job he's doing. -

Presumption of innocent until proven guilty is for the courts. The rest of us are free to presume Kelly and Murphy are guilty POS -

I'm mostly thinking of this play when I say his arm is nothing special haha https://www.cfl.ca/2023/08/20/outstanding-td-grab-from-samuel-emilus/ -
Free Agency Day - Non-Bombers CFL News
blue85gold replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Ray had the timing down and nobody said he had a big arm. -
Another option at RT but not a very exciting one. That said, Hardrick was picked from the scrap heap before and turned into an all-star, so who knows.

How many Dlineman have the TiCats signed this offseason? Seems like a lot. -
Ya BOLO is one you guys are right. Would have like to keep him but its hard to have that back up Cdn receiver making much more than the minimum.
-
Not sure who you mean by this. If anything hanging onto the old guard for too long hinders player development. Rose, Bailey, Gray, Jeffcoat are all out, making room for younger guys to play. Clements played well, but Cole is the guy they like better. Developing to have a higher ceiling. Can't think of a younger player they've had get away that was developing into anything.
-
Can't keep the whole gang together forever. Got to be a youth movement at some point. More than 1 injury in any positional group is going to mean a rookie stepping in. This is the CFL, should be expecting some 1st year players to make big impacts. Without that, can't stay on top. Look at Montreal last year. They didn't just win the Cup based on their FA signings. Ento and Mack were a huge part of it. Looking forward to the competition in camp this year.
