2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
We have made the grey cup for 5 straight seasons and hosted 4 straight western finals.... a little perspective is perhaps warranted here... ultimately they failed to win the big prize 3 years in a row but they still have had tremendous success including last season. Anyone look back at the stamps of the 2010s and think they weren't successful? Or the als of the 2000s? They had plenty of Grey cup disappointments but they weren't touted as unsuccessful. Fact is that prior to the Bombers the last team to make 5 straight Grey cups was the 5 in a row Eskimos... that says something right there. People need to tone down the craziness and see things for what they are. Could be better in some aspects but could also be a ******* hell of a lot worse.

Bottom line you execute the passing plays no one is going to complain about lack of running. You fail to execute running plays people will complain about too much running into a wall. You want people to not complain? Execute and win.

Honestly with how defensive the team has been about the whole collaros thing i read that as they know... but oshea will never give in to the media and give them a straight answer. Just not his MO.

What a sad ******* state of affairs for cfl quarterbacking when Vernon Adams is the hot sought after option...

3 turds plus crappy honker. Long winter edition.
No player worth anything is ever going to not want to play. Coaches needed to sit him down.

Ehhh you spend that kind of money to go all in when you're hosting the grey cup and lose the semi final after a collapse in season there are consequences.

If we're punting from midfield I got a lot of faith in the aussie to find the corner and pin a team deep.... but punting from our own end? I expect to give up a field goal minimum.

All things considered...
I wasn't talking about us, only Toronto. Not everything needs to go back to Oshea. Fact is Toronto has a good system in place for finding players. Makes Dinwiddies job easier.

Sergio is a way better punter than the dipshit they used the last couple years. I just want a guy that can at some point boom one and flip the field when needed.

Dinwiddie is a good coach but he's also got a good personel department going for him.

Yeah oshea might have flipped on the seat warmer but he's got lots of rope left.

Well did they not find a replacement or were the special teams just not very good blocking for returners ? Cause every guy they put back there looked pretty much the same.

Jake Thomas wouldn't take the heat he does if they didn't deploy him like he was 2001 era Doug brown.

I think walters did start that process last season. He's talked in the past about how you can't do it all at once but how there needs to be that turnover. I think after 2022 and they brought nearly everyone back he wasn't even totally convinced on that course but did it anyway.

Oh I dunno, walters is patient but not oblivious. I don't think he’s going to sit on his hands this offseason given some of the issues that have come up. He isn't a knee jerk type but 2 grey cups with similar problems and the poor start to the year and general offensive inconsistency I suspect he does ask for explanations.

Which is why I said trust the GM. Part of his job is keeping the coaches in line.

You're wrong. So trust the GM to get it sorted....

Most irksome moment of GC 2024- Why did they Stray from Brady?
I'm not saying spend big... but nothing stopping them from finding a young guy who can play the position.

Credible rumors? Because those two have been leaving every offseason for the last 3, 4 years according to rumors.

I wouldn't be married to Jones at linebacker... he did a nice job and illustrated how far bighill has fallen but I think you can do better there but if not Jones can be solid.
