That Dinwiddie followed O'Shea's roster decisions by playing more Canadians than he could have? Not really. I didn't see a Canadian starter on the Argos even remotely close to the ineffectiveness of Jake Thomas. The Argos roster of Canadians were better than ours. It gave them flexibility. Our starting Canadians (in certain positions) hurt us. “I really don’t care about other teams, I just talk about them and then when someone corrects my false statement I get an attitude about it” lol

December 30, 2024Dec 30 comment_741594 Definitely some prospects for 25' in that bunch....I hope we're bringing a few of them in to kick their tires....orrrr something else...Instead of a cup of coffee, they'll probably require a glass of bubbly on their quick exit....Walters has to be on it.....or something

December 31, 2024Dec 31 comment_741636 Bombers 7 and 3 vs the west. 8 if you include the west final. Als 6 and 2 vs division Argos like everyone else except Sask who was 5 and 5 vs the division under 500 vs division. bombers D best in the league # 1 in points against by 40 points really. #2 Montreal gave up 40 more points than Winnipeg Bombers O sucked tho .we all should know that by now but scored 1 less point than Montreal’s O did in the regular season the 2 best teams were Montreal and Winnipeg tho in most categories
December 31, 2024Dec 31 comment_741643 Pretty surprising to see how the East fared against the West in 2024: Tor 7-3-0, Mtl 6-3-1, Ott 6-3-1, Ham 3-7-0. Overall East was 22-16-2 against West. Head to head, Tor was 2-0 vs. Wpg, 2-0 vs. B.C., 1-1 vs the other three (including meaningless loss to Edm in wk 21). Toronto had trouble with the non-playoff teams (0-3 vs Ham, 1-1 vs both Cal and Edm) but was 8-3 against playoff teams. Edited December 31, 2024Dec 31 by pw13

Totally. The Argos D completely took over in the playoffs. How many turnovers did they create? How many TDs did they score? It was nuts
December 31, 2024Dec 31 comment_741652 The past couple pages of this thread really showcase the revisionist history of a lost Grey Cup (which I understand people are still upset about...) but man... After the West Final, having lost, like, 1 of our last 12 or something (??), there was a real sense that we were dominant and going to crush whoever we played in the GC.

I never felt that way....was just more of a glossing over of the issues with some wins....but the issues were still there and ready to bite...and chomp chomp is exactly what happened...we were basically a team getting by with 1/3rd of the units (defence) being dominant...the other 2 were middling at best and severely out coached....but we slithered into the playoffs and grey cup...and the status quo was deemed good enough...and it wasn't....that was my take going into the last 3rd of season and play-offs and was pretty accurate...and to be honest it's a good thing we played a team with a brain dead HC leading them in the WF....

Last season I didn't feel like our team was ever dominant. Even when we were struggling in the previous seasons we still had guys who could create turnovers and where the team could put away others with grinding them down on O. Last year we didn't have big play makers showing up game in and game out (Brady being the exception). Edited December 31, 2024Dec 31 by Brandon

Bombers D was ******* good. Even in the grey cup, but the reality is that you still need an offense to do their share in the CFL to have a hope.
December 31, 2024Dec 31 comment_741663 Team of Destiny perhaps going into the Grey Cup but dominant, no.

The offence looked great against Sask. and Edm., not so good against the Argos though. During that 8 game winning streak they beat the Riders, Lions, Elks and Ti-Cats twice each but it was bookended by losses to the Argos.

That first argos game, the offense fumbled a bunch in scoring range and had that dodgey third down spot... and the defense was still good enough in that game it took an error the cfl had to admit to for the argos to score enough to win. For the amount of money spent on offense last season their performance throughout the season was nowhere near good enough.
December 31, 2024Dec 31 comment_741679 Do ppl forget scoring 20 points was pretty common for the o this year. Weren’t they averaging under 20 even at some point. D was the only reason we made it to the cup final.
