2023/2024 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread (BRADY’S BACK! DALTON’S BACK!)
And we won a gc by some last second magic, too. I agree with the board, on first glance the JT signing is underwhelming. I just think it's also important to remember what got us to the dance in the first place..it's always been a character driven team.FIFO. If you lose too many of those unsung leaders than you may lose the culture too. Let's see what happens in free agency..

Maybe I'm drunk ( I am) but anyone else think the jake Thomas signing is 1000% for character and character alone. Dude knows what it's like to be a blue bomber. To me it's interesting that we applaud this organization for having character guys, yet now when we sign character it's upsetting. 4 grey cups in a row guys. We can have our oshea roster doubts. Let's trust Walter's to do his job. If Walter's says Thomas adds value.. I'm behind him 4 GREY CUPS in a row. 2 plays away from winning 4 straight. Man I get the resentment, I do. But Thomas was signed for a reason. Maybe a reason we don't understand yet. We've been given no reason to over analyze yet.. this ain't previous regimens.. My first 28 years of life on this earth we didn't win a grey cup. Now we've been there 4x straight and it seems like a good portion of this board is ready to jump ship like it never happened. I get that we need to be critical but let's reserve that until we haven't made a grey cup lol. Seriously. We were in the conversation to be the worst pro franchise in sports. Everyone hold their horses. These guys know what they are doing We have people on this website ( and I mean this respectfully) who think they know better than the management who has brought us to where we are now. - and to those people who know better. Where are your grey cup rings and why aren't you coaching pro football? It's easy to be critical like friesen when you ain't making the calls.. To winning a grey cup that dodged us for 29 years... shessh man. Do we not remember where we were just a few years ago?

A lot will come to light this year on whether or not strev can be come a stand in passing qb in this league... We got a great price to find out anyway

Let me to ask to the Dru Brown over Collaros guys, @Mikeyou specifically Would you rather the group we have now or brown over zc still?

Yeah, I don't know if im happier with him than Shoen but I'd certainly rather strev than Oliveira...I for one think strev has probably improved his passing immensely over the last few years..

He's referring to Noellers response to you, presumably. It would be so much cooler if we could talk in person. Messages sometimes come across as very hostile, and probably are just tongue in cheek- joking tone

I wouldn't be happy about that. I'd rather keep Zack atleast another year.. God we forget very quickly what its like to be gambling at the qb position.

People will think I'm nuts for saying this, but I personally think strev adds more value to the offense than shoen or BO. For those concerned about zacks play this year, strev adds a true wrinkle to the offense that makes it unpredictable. One has to assume his passing has improved floating around the nfl the past couple of years. Take Zack out of the game when he gets his forced ball glasses on. Put strev in the game and put the defence back on its heals. Plus, the dudes a ****** legend. I'd love to have him back Brown better be careful playing the cfl qb game of musical chairs.. he could end up in a bad situation

I like Augustine. I actually think he has game breaking ability. That being said I'm not convinced he has the grit to get the tough yards. Maybe a committee could work. I won't say running backs are a dime a dozen but I'd say the talent out of the usa is typically vastly better. Running back being no exception. As good as Olivera is and has been, I imagine there's plenty of Americans that could fill the role. That being said, I like Brady. Home town kid . Good for the franchise. And seems like a good dude too. He deserves to get his BUT the comment does rub people the wrong way, myself included

The other thing is, if he wants to go to another team and remain a star. Hope they show a commitment to running the ball like winnipeg has.. Andrew had a long career in winnipeg. Who knows how that works out on other teams

Oshs comments regarding special teams suggests he did indeed have a part to play in the coaching change. Good move for the defense, too

The guy is nauseating after a while. Give it a rest, dude. We've seen several coordinators come and go in MOS time.. total eye roller

Still can't understand the zero blitz when we're playing for the tie. A sack doesn't take them out of fg range.

Call it what you want … you need to move on from Collaros
Yeah Ford reminds me of a more talented brandon bridge. I don't think Ford cuts it as a full time starter, but what do I know

Restaurant/food thread
I live in esp and I've never cared for jonseys. Everyone else loves it. Not for me. Everytime I get a burger there it tastes dried out and bland to me. Sorrentos.. meh.. not great either. I used to grab pasta from vincenzos down the street once in a while. Brandon has an amazing pasta joint called pizza express. Hands down the best pasta joint on the market. Some have said they found it a little soupy, but for me it's incredible. They just opened a location in wpg on roblin. Give it a shot

I cant see Ottawa, or any other team going afer MBT before Brown. The risk is substantial either way.. May as well go with the most upside.
