February 6, 20241 yr comment_686763 Very unexpected, but always glad to see a guy like Brady playing here. I think Schoen goes west now Edited February 6, 20241 yr by JohnnyAbonny

February 6, 20241 yr comment_686766 I’m thinking Brady got probably between 210-220k and honestly, I’m fine with that
February 6, 20241 yr comment_686767 IF it comes down to losing Schoen to keep Brady, I am 110% okay with that. Ignoring being from Winnipeg - We're talking about the best player at his position AND counting as a National, AND handling the ball typically 15-20 times a game, occasionally sometimes more. As the weather turns, running the ball gets increasingly important, while Schoen, is at a position where we already have great talent, is usually the easiest position to find new, American talent, and only handles the ball a few times a game. Don't get me wrong - I love Schoen. He's a gritty SOB and among the best at his position too...but given the above, if forced to choose (and hopefully we don't have to), I'm keeping Brady every day of the week and twice on Sundays. It's not particularly close for me whatsoever.

Changed the whole game by taking a needless risk for a pick 6. factor in he was probably the worst tackler on the team as well...he shuld have been on the pine the last 3rd of season and playoffs...but staff was blinded by the picks

I hope we manage to keep both though.
February 6, 20241 yr comment_686770 Wow, what a way to kick off the day! I'm absolutely pumped that Brady's sticking around! My health has been taking a major hit lately and I've been feeling at an all-time low, this news is like a touchdown for my spirit, I haven't felt this fired up since November
February 6, 20241 yr comment_686772 I’m going to try and be self-aware with this because I know I prefer Schoen over Brady myself, but I did have a conversation with my dad the other day where he made a very good point: we’ve never played Schoenball in the 4th Q to seal a win. We’ve made a habit of playing Bradyball. That stuff does matter and I don’t think I had really considered that until he said it.
February 6, 20241 yr comment_686773 Club needed to do this you can’t have a top ten player in the league from your city playing for another team. Just from a PR point this a win.

February 6, 20241 yr comment_686776 Schoen would be great but it is easier to get good import receivers than CDN starting RBs.

That comes after Schoen racking up TDs. I love Brady, I’m glad he is back - he is the best RB in the league. However, giving him bank is not high on my priority list.

February 6, 20241 yr comment_686781 My question why only 2yrs?....he wants to try and re-set market again??...team should have pushed for a 3 yr...substantial increase in yr 3 when some big money will be off the book, and with some guaranted money to sweeten the pot... Hopefully we find a way to have an Import back on roster to put out at same time, and to give him a breather/change it up.....

February 6, 20241 yr comment_686785 I really think there’s a notable absence of negotiations being held with the top receivers and I’m guessing it’s because everyone has realized paying 300k to a Lawler or Lewis doesn’t mean anything if you suck at QB. My gut tells me right now that Schoen may have been hoping for an offer from Ottawa to go play with Dru, but now that it’s probably not coming, he’ll be back here at 260k-ish
February 6, 20241 yr comment_686786 A Streveler and BO combo to run and grind out games in final 5 mins or so of a game tho will be a tough nut to swallow for some defenses now tho...and be very fun to watch
