  1. In all seriousness tho. O should be better by default. Zach still Zach tho and when you live by the gun you die by the gun. Take the good you try to limit the bad. Let Zach manage the game and try to keep him with in his kind of zone like area and not ask him to throw 40 yard passes more than a few times a game and we should be ok. This O could be a time possession type of O who eats lots of clock and it’s prob best if it were. Spread the ball around. Is it nice to score in 3 4 plays? Yup but it’s also fun to score on 8 9 10 play drives. Gives your D who was solid last year and appears improved In a few key areas including cornerback which was a revolving door last year some rest also. The O prob doesn’t need to be spectacular. Just be average or a bit better than average cuz last year we were garbage. But essentially this is pre season 3. So not to high not to low. Still not even July lol.
  2. Hot Take. Zach gets hurt. We trade for Dru after giving TE a few games where he shows potential and wins 1 loses 1 wins 1 loses 1 type thing. Dru comes in and goes on a run ala Zach where we end up winning the cup in Calgary and TE like Streveler plays a pivotal role in the finals where he hits Corcoran for the winning TD on a 3rd down gamble with seconds to go. Hotter take cuz click rage bait. All players Booch endorse eventually get cut.
  3. D was pretty solid last year. Adding Ceresna Jenkins Moxey and Williams should all improve on what was in those spots last year. The O was bad but I’m not sure how much I can judge the O based on last year, as our OC was a pretty incompetent OC. Our players were obviously not happy with the play calling and made it clear. O was bad. No pokey to even start the year. Brady hurt on series 2 maybe 1. Just based on having a dude with some aka lots of cfl coaching experience kinda coming full circle back to Winnipeg after learning the ropes and our QB kinda praising him and making it obvious he’s a big Tommy fan, surely just based on the fact we running a cfl O again means we should see improvement there. Is Zach less cooked? Prob not but I think he can Matt Nichols at this point and game manage. If Zach can limit the stupidity aka triple or double coverage throws, then the O should improve. Would like to see less fgs tho and more TDs. I’m not sure I worry about who the essentially 6th option on O is, I think pokey Demski white nield line up most plays as does Brady, 6th will be mci Cobb Clercius (when healthy) or Daniels or even Eli. Think you can keep teams guessing there a bit. I’m ok With option 6 being pretty much Canadian if it means an American is playing at a position where he’s better than the Canadian. Is Elsbury better than Eli? Time will tell but after 6 seasons of basically being the ideal backup OL, logic says probably so I’m ok with 3 us oline cuz QB staying healthy is the difference in the cfl. Honestly. I’m a Tommy fan. He’s like the teacher on family guy, Bruce. The charismatic one, you just know If Zach gets hurt he’s gonna like like ohh no. Cuz Tommy sounds exactly like Bruce I like Bruce so by default I like Tommy but I’m not sure how I feel about calling a grown married man with wife and kids Tommy, I think Tom Condell works Let’s Goooooo Younger has all the Americans it appears, that is a take for sure but a factual one posted earlier so the D better be ******* spectacular Perhaps a big year for JY ? Perhaps an important one for him and his future?? I dunno just throwing it out there Osh still has the throw younger under the bus card.
  4. Apparently he’s got a no move but rumours are not only would he waive it for the Jets, it’s believed the Jets might be his preferred destination. Him KFC are bff plus with Helle a Michigan guy also. Chevy gonna trade like a bag of pucks and our 27 1st and or Perfetti for Larkin. Big outdoors guys like KC and Helle. KC is truly his best friend. KC would be the reason he would want to come here. Thing here is Larkin could technically screw the wings and say I only want to go to Winnipeg so this could be like lambert plus heinola for Larkin.
  5. Jake Thomas should be in the cfl hall of fame.
  6. Ya I mean. Based on speedy B going in, Janarian Grant must then since basically the same but won a cup. Is Keith stokes in the hall? If speedy B is, stokes should be also. Wow Tyler “special” Snead. 131 yards not even at the half.
  7. It could be really. Him and KC are close. I wonder if like Helle plus Lambert plus our 1st type for Larkin Cossa and their 1st actually might work.
  8. Our O definitely needs what they call big plays. Definitely didn’t have enough of those last year. Also Zach needs to not make dumb throws and decisions. He does that at times tho. Brady ball should be all 4th quarter and ideally by then we already winning by 2 scores plus cuz the O has already scored a few TDs. They ain’t gonna run 30 times and pass 9 times this season tho.
  9. Speedy B off to the cfl hall of fame. Not sure honestly about that one.
  10. Kids be in school in June still. But no excuses cuz it’s plus 25 in Hamilton.
  11. Cilantros on Gateway is solid. Like dude said tho, dozens and I’ll add you can’t really go wrong.
  12. Hmm. Here’s the thing. What if Elsbury is actually better than Eli? I would think Job 1 of Oline.. keep Zach healthy. I’d start 4 Americans if it means Zach is healthy. 2 DIs on LBs is annoying.
  13. Interesting Six players have also hit the six-game injured list, including Canadian receiver Kevens Clercius, American offensive lineman Micah Vanterpool, Canadian defensive lineman Tanner Schmekel, Canadian linebacker Lane Novak, American linebacker Jovan Santos-Knox, American defensive back Cam Allen, and Canadian defensive back Ethan Ball.
  14. Ron Hainsey won a cup. As did Nate Schmidt.
  15. Vegas gonna win tho. Carolina usually loses in the ECF so this is all new to them. Vegas has been there.
  16. Personally thought Shay was here to take Jones spot but not yet.
  17. I think there’s a real chance Nield is our top Canadian receiver this year especially if Demski banged up but who knows, could just be he’s Demski and certain guys don’t need the camp reps exactly.
  18. Yeah. That makes total sense says nobody with logic. Honestly Eli has been here for like what 6 years now? And is now hurt. Jones has been here for 2. The D decisions are primarily made by Younger. Time for ppl to accept that. I’m not the biggest tony jones fan personally. All his tackles are after yards gained but nobody exactly stepped up and took his job. You can sit here and go to 1 practice a month and pretend to know or hey dude online who was wrong about a few other guys said this random dude with the 30 seconds highlight reel from ncaa 3 years ago is a stud but when the live bullets are flying, who the heck stepped up and took Tony or Kyries job? Nobody. Reality, the guys they kept minus the kickers who no team releases reliable vets for rookies, the guys they kept did step up. The guys they let go did not. Just cuz dude makes 1 play in a game doesn’t mean much, for all we know he’s totally lost all week in practice. So tell me who should have taken Tony jones job? Which rookie middle linebacker stepped up? In my opinion none did. There were no Adam Bighills or Barron Simpsons in this recruiting class. O’Shea? Younger? Scouting?. When nobody steps up its scouting. Look at the receivers, Frederickson stepped up, singer did. But the fact a dude like frederickson who looks like a less athletic Jamie stoddard is one of the training camp stars, scouting is a problem. You living in fantasy land where you think teams will replace half their rosters at camp. Nobody does that. Bombers weren’t a 1 or 2 win team last year like you seem to pretend they were. It’s Clinton right cuz he made 1 play. Thats who right? So you cutting Woodbey I guess cuz seems like the same type of player. Def not a middle linebacker. Think the middle backer was Cretsinger, he wasn’t bad but he didn’t exactly take a Job either but to replace your reliable vet, that rookie needs to kick the doors in and take it. Nobody did man. Really the bottom line.
  19. How so. You want a D that hall ran more than younger does. Younger ain’t running the traditional cfl D that you all want to run. He’s running some confusing hybrid D. He obviously values the versatility over dudes who just do 1 thing. If Osh is Oshin always then younger is youngerin. How am I the ****** when you can’t even accept that Garbutt fox and Bailey all sucked.
  20. After submitting the picks the first time.
  21. Should be but perhaps realizing no nfl aspirations changes things. Think dudes a stud and I would have gone after him. Younger be Youngerin

  23. So it’s up to teams to grow the game in their local communities. Winnipeg is leading the way. Toronto is doing nothing. Toronto prob better off if like peg and Sask, they were community owned.
  24. lol. You do know people have to accept PR spots and why would we PR American linebacker when we have 20 Canadian linebackers. Every year some pie in the sky can’t believe they kept insert Tony jones or Kyrie Wilson here. They still talking of Bryan Randall. ;) And to show how little he stood out, when broski said Bailey was released my first thought was Someone bumped a post from years ago and Rasheed was let go.
