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*

 

*Grey Cup Champions

Well, I've never been a fan of "consequences" Kavis Reed but does he deserve some credit at least for the Als 10-8 season last year? He signed William Stanback, drafted Trey Rutherford, signed Henoc Muamba, Tommie Campbell and Boseko Lokombo, promoted Khari Jones to HC, signed Vernon Adams Jr., and put together one of the league’s best receiving corps in Eugene Lewis, DeVier Posey, Quan Bray and Jake Wieneke.

You've just answered your own question, along with the bad comes some good, nothing is ever black or white.  I hope Travis is writing a book, the CFL could use some exposing  and Travis could shed a lot of light.

With 30 seconds left Fajardo gets sacked and fumbles and Wpg recovers but it's overturned by the Command Centre. What a horrible call. No way, in my opinion, is that an "incomplete pass". A real "homer" call there that could have had disastrous results for our football team. Had we gone on to lose that game I would have been livid about that call. Just BS.

yes, it would have been right up there with 1972 and that loss to Sask in West Final.  Thank goodness that history didn't repeat itself.

 If eliminating the ratio was a such good idea it would have been done by now. It hasn't been because the negatives of doing so would outweigh anything positive. 

I wonder though if that dynamic would change in a (market) like Toronto and/or Montreal.

no Canadians?

no thanks.

might as well just watch NFL.

 

I dunno about that. Goofy game, that NFL. 4 downs, fair catches, no motion, short, narrow field, yuck!

Honestly the D came together when they got the secondary sorted out. Lot of bodies in and out due to injuries throughout the year, by the playoffs though they'd found a group that worked.

The big one being Alexander for Hecht followed by Taylor and Maston.

Tell Reinebold to disable his Caps Lock.

I believe he truly was shouting....

someone asked him about it one time on Twitter and apparently he does it on purpose because he finds it easier to read. Do with that what you will........

i think he has issue with his eyes that why he’s doing it. i remember Mike explained it here already.

Mark Mueller has been with the Stamps for 6 years already despite being only 30. 

Coached running backs the entire time,

 

Was a college QB he is one of the up and coming coaches in the league.

Speaking of Goosen, I wonder if he had any misgivings about giving up his football career with the Bombers when he did.

Probably not as he is a career cop in Surrey.

So the best kept secret is out....Buck Pierce is the OC.....according to third down....I think he'll do a great job and there's something to be said about continuity...Congrats Buck

I should think that someone from the Bomber organization would take the initiative to come onto the fan website and make the announcements like this one. It would make many here feel like their support of the Bombers was of value.

I'd love to agree with you... but unfortunately, you're wrong... by the rule, that's 100% an incomplete pass... I remember watching the game and when I saw the replay immediately said "****, that's an incomplete pass"...

if we had gone on to lose... it would be the dropped Sayles INT (just knock the f***ing ball down!) on 3rd and 10 that would haunt us...

Seriously?  I'm sorry, but I don't share (or even understand) this sort of level of entitlement.  They make their announcements in the press, because that's how it's done.

How hard would it be for them to phone me at home and keep me updated? I mean really...

It's just laziness. I mean, what are they even doing now? Why can't they call us? I'm sitting here, with my phone, ready for a call. Or sure they'll call when they want something but why not just pick up the phone and see how I'm doing? 

I'm great, by the way. 

I know we're joking about the calling at home thing... but when I bought season tix for my parents, their customer service was over the top - like their sales gave me her text number to close the deal before xmas

Olga Tzerkovich... weird that the bombers have a Ukraine office but whatevs - they keep saying they're sending the actual tickets.... eventually.

Good point. They should also call and inform us of the tracking updates on the shipping of the tickets.

Sort out the secondary meant finally having a safety that can actually COVER and make plays....significantly lacking for a number of years....sorry Loeffler lovers but he couldn’t cover.
