I'm not saying brohm is any good. I'm just saying he wasn't the reason we lost. Seems to be very little talk of the D getting lit up. I get it. We lost. We sucked but why not talk about the real reasons we lost instead of talking about a QB who does suck or firing coaches
-
I'm being ridiculous? People calling for O'shea head and I'm being ridiculous. Whatever.
-
They were getting shredded b4 willy got hurt too.
-
No using the backs by MB either when willy went down or even b4. Brohm sucked but no way was he the reason we lost
-
Was brohm REALLY the biggest problem? I mean maybe watched a different game but our D was shredded from start to finish. 56 points against. Ya 2 pick 6 really but the D is the concern. What would Marve have done? Probably nothing. The D sucks tho
-
To move the ball but if the d can't stop the other team the QB is irrelevant
-
4 and 15 might be a reason

The D is non existent. Brohm sucks too but the D can't stop the ticats at all. -

Assuming we are fighting for a playoff spot but if not those bodies or picks you get don't really matter

[MERGED] July 2 Game Thread (Depth Charts included)
Goalie replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
There is some talk on the weather channel and my app here that it could rain tonight, apparently it's supposed to, it should have already really but it says only until 6pm, however with how wrong they are at times and with how smokey it is outside, it's hard to tell what its going to do. If it rains, the ground game might play an even bigger role and if it does, I think i'm pretty comfortable here and a minor upset may happen. -
I think some of it has to do with the fact that some people might not think the stadium is a safe place to be. I'm not one of them, I don't have season tickets, i have a young very very young family now and the cash has to be spent elsewhere right now but when the baby girl is old enough, I'll probably get season tickets again. I think lots of this does have to do with the stadium stuff tho.. i think maybe the "cracks" and the fact that they are going to be replacing the concourses this off-season has something to do with it, is it safe? It is but... sometimes the perception of things makes people think otherwise. I think perhaps the safety concerns of the stadium are a main reason why ticket sales are down. Quite a few articles about the stadium and how much work needs to be done on it, think that plays a role.

Callahan is also not even close to 40 and signed a new deal with tampa last year.

Last thing I'll say about Frolik cuz i was pretty convinced he was gone the second he could be, Losing Frolik in my opinion, it might hurt us in the short term, then again it might not but in the long term, This team is built around the kids really plus a few vets like Ladd,Little,Wheeler but for the most part... it's all about the kids, draft and develop from day 1, we got frolik for next to nothing, we lost him for nothing.. it is what it is, the writing was on the wall when he signed a 1 year deal last season... it was obvious he was gone then.. .guaranteed if we weren't fighting for a playoff spot he would have been sent packing last season near the deadline but we were so... you win some, you lose some really and we move on with the youth movement really that has been happening since day 1 of the Jets rebirth really. Was Frolik a good player? for sure, was he the difference between contending and pretending? Nope not at all, on a good team he's a 3rd line winger really... Maybe some Jets fans think he's better than he actually is but... reality is, he's a good 3rd line winger on a good team and a PK guy... If he's in your top 6, you probably aren't gonna be going very far... With all that being said tho... if his wife wanted to leave then so be it, what can you do.. Is it too cold here for her? Boo Hoo really... not enough to do? I want players on this team who want to be here not because there wife said its ok but because they want to be here.. I want guys like Little,Wheeler,Ladd etc, Perreault who have all signed new deals since the rebirth of the Jets, People totally forget that Ladd signed a new deal with us in 2011 don't they?

1.Calgary - last year is irrelevant now since there is so much roster change year to year however... 2. Winnipeg - Did anybody but Bombers fans actually expect us to win? and do it by moving the ball so easily really (25 pass, 25 rush) 3. Toronto- Did anyone regardless of the injury to reilly cuz they were dominating them even when reilly played expect this? 4. Ottawa - It pains me to put them here but i have to have the winners of week 1 first 5. BC - they didn't play, they haven't lost 6.Hamilton - best of the losers in week 1 7. Sask - Didn't get as owned as... 8. Edmonton - they looked terrible 9. Montreal - they did too But on a side note, the rankings mean nothing at all. It's just something to get annoyed with really and honestly, don't think the rankings are worth getting annoyed with even.

52 points for a 40 year old player ain't so bad. Guy obviously had skills, probably decided that it's not worth his time to come back another year and play for less than what he made this past year. I think St Louis was probably a guy who didn't get as many (if he got any all) offers and the ones he did get (if he did get them even) were for way cheap. Demanded a trade to NEW York only so really if the Rangers,Islanders and even Devils had no interest (not sure any of them would have) then yup, makes sense as to why he would retire instead of maybe take a deal elsewhere. I'm not convinced that St Louis had many if any teams wanting him tho, 40 years old. Good Career tho but man, what a brutal way to end it really... Always thought he was a classy player on and off the ice but the demanding of the trade and then the whole issue with Team Canada there (which lead to his demanding of a trade really) were definitely some low moments for St Louis. I look at St Louis and i see a good reason why the NHL should probably make No trade Clauses and things of this nature a thing of the past, he really did kind of put Tampa in a tough spot, they got lucky cuz Callahan but... These guys are making millions upon millions of dollars and are saying " i only want to be traded here". That's ridiculous, that and guaranteed contracts are 2 things i would love to see the owners get rid of next lockout, even if it means missing a season, and there will be another lockout for sure... salarys are getting out of control again.. Not for a while but there will be one again.

I think Froliks wife had a say in this. His one quote about having a family now leads me to believe that he was gone and there was nothing the jets could do besides massively over pay him that would change his mind. Oh well. One less allan Walsh client to deal with
-
Buff to Philly makes little sense for Philly who is stacked with d prospects. Islanders or maybe Washington or even Florida make more sense
-
Dano will be very good. Chicago got a very good cost controlled young player plus
-
4.3 for a guy who ideally plays 3rd line is Def an overpayment IMO. Maybe the fact that it's a 5 year deal makes me think overpayment. Is Frolik top 6 in calgary? Hudler Monahan Guedreau Bennett. Hmm. Ya probably second line. Maybe not a bad deal but I think he's a 3rd liner on a really good team. 4.3 on a 5 year deal is steep
-
Buff would get you a nice package for sure. I hope they move him. I like buff but I'd move him yesterday if I were the jets. He'd get a ton back. A first a prospect and a roster player for sure.
-
No doubt. What a silly thing to say really. That one made me go hmm for sure. Honestly trading buff is probably the best move for the long term of the franchise. Keeping him and letting him walk for free tho. Yikes. Decision needs to be made on buff b4 start of season.
