2019-20 CFL Offseason

For some teams, the CFL Offseason is here. Rather than lose all the coaching movement discussions to the Regular season thread, I thought we could start putting it here.

Those teams currently lost in the wilderness:

Ottawa

Toronto

BC

Montreal

Calgary

Edmonton

Saskatchewan

Hamilton

The champs are here.. the champs are here... Winnipeg*

  • Now to get Brandon Banks on an off - season program that will give him the cardio needed when he's targeted 3 times in a row...

  • I still think with a different OC, Streveler could be a top tier QB in this league. 

  • We must never mess with the 'Rouge' - it may serve no real purpose but most importantly it is not American and it confuses the **** out of Americans... therefore it is critically important to the Cana

I almost think it was restructured to yes..take handcuffs of the team..but also to make him more traceable.. they get right offer..I can see him traded

Huffing is no fool and if he sees that they can accomplish same thing with Arbuckle..and for 150..200k less he wont hesitate to move him

When exactly has Huff cut bait on a proven QB?  He has a lot of opportunities to ditch Tate...

BLM isn’t going anywhere - either Huff manages to keep Arbuckle on a one year deal or he gets a 1st for Arbuckle’s early neg rights

BLM is far from being done,  he is not going anywhere. 

Arbuckle will find his way to Toronto I'm guessing....

noticed game today, good to see

 

Duke Williams , Buffalo

Yeah.  Maybe Toronto would be willing to trade the farm for him.  The 90k they saved on Mitchell's salary isn't really going to reshape the team they have around the quarterback. But if they could save 250k over what they paid to their starter last season they could really pickup a number of pieces to make a difference.

Or Ottawa. If any team learned the pains of not having a true no1 qb last year it was them.

Both can't be gone soon enough. Alot with Maas and Hervey they are in the top tier of crap

Fair enough - the difference though is that Burris was benched and BLM was injured... then regained his starting role

I really think Huf finds a way to maintain both - just for this season

 

New Era better not **** this up. Our uniforms are basically perfect right now.

4. New Era ushers in a new era of uniforms

Last year, New Era took over for Adidas as the CFL’s official on-field equipment provider. It was the first time New Era, best known for being the leader in providing baseball caps, was making game apparel. Thus, the uniforms themselves didn’t change that much. Other than a uniform and logo rebranding by the Montreal Alouettes and some subtle changes to the look of the Toronto Argonauts, the uniforms across the league were pretty status quo.

Expect that to change. Now that New Era has a season under their built, expect the partnership to not only expand, but for new uniforms to be pretty bold and carry the CFL’s progressive mindset into the new decade by targeting a new generation of fans.

Dont the CFL and the teams dictate what the uniforms look like.......  an not the other way around ?

All 3 would have a say. However, the brand often pushes their agenda. 

I find that hard to believe.

I know.

Just leave us alone. 

I've even come around on the blue away shoulders which were my only complaint.

Yeah, the word "bold" makes me cringe.

Buzzwords like bold and progressive and targetting a new generation of fans just sets off alarm bells because you know that just means uglying things up for the sake of change.

Don't **** with the classics.

Precisely.

We went back to our classic look and have been one of the best teams year in year out and broke the curse of the bold lightning bolt W and navy blue.

 

They did a nice job with the Montreal uniforms... but yeah don't make the CFL look like a high school bush league please

I fully support third jerseys though - can't believe the CFL only half jumped on that bandwagon... same as a heritage classic night - would love to see the Labour Day classic as all heritage jerseys again
