2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Tracker and 4 others reacted to Arnold_Palmer for a topic
I would have no issues bringing back Lapo if Buck bolts to B.C. listen I’m excited what he would be able to do to get Oliveria the football. And in time in Winnipeg he had Nichols as his QB and Darvin Adam’s as our best receiver. He got the most out of the offense with what he had. I liked how he got people included in the offense. People say he’s conservative but for most of his time here look what he has to work with. His play calling in the 2019 playoffs was a big part of why we ended up winning the cup that year.5 points -

Have to give the guy props for developing him self late in his career into a competent teams guy, going from an abysmal blocker to average or a bit better, and for finding another gear as a runner while being able to accelerate much quicker. If he had gotten that kind of development while in college his career as a pro would’ve been very different. I respect the guys tenacity, work ethic, toughness and strength. A lot of guys could use an ounce of what he’s got. He may well be picked up by another team, especially if they try to flip the ratio at rb. Toronto would be a good candidate if they want to go onto adebobye. Or mtl with ste, or bc with jeshrun.3 points -
2019 says otherwise. ZC brought a more effective downfield passing game with him, which immediately opened up the running game.3 points

Nichols checked down because he couldn't throw the ball with any velocity. The more LaPo had with Strev it ended up being ridiculous trick plays... when LaPo stuck with the basics it worked. I'm in favour of trying someone new... we don't need some kind of mad scientist of an OC to figure out that handing the ball off to Brady = 5+ yards on average. Maybe we need more creativity in getting Demski involved with the short passes since that seemed to have disappeared last season. Also Augustine still averaged 5.0 yards per carry yet again.. why not give him a few carries to help lighten the load on Brady.1 point

Thats why he gets a dedicated QB/Coach quality control guy...then he doesnt get the chance to just have carte blanche...input...but not sole say...win win!!! lol1 point

Everyone starts that way with lapo, streveler did too, and Nichols, but eventually is all goes back to check downs. More time qbs spend with lapo the worse they get1 point

As an example of what is possible with LaPolice, Paul Maurice was fired several times, but got smarter with each coaching experience until he got to the Florida Panthers when it all came together.1 point

I hope we integrate an offensive quality control guy....or like u said a game day passing/playcall co-ord to work alongside the OC I also wouldnt be too quick to say no to LAPO.....as he seems like a guy who does like/want to evolve and seems to have the mindset to use what you have....and to its best\ Stick him to just the task of the offence....with a right hand man with him...I see no issues with that at all really....sometimes old can be new....1 point

Don’t think he’d get Jy, idk if they’d get permission either as they couldn’t offer a clear upgrade job. They’ll likely keep Phillips imo. Externally, none bomber types. I hope not myksimick but could be. Travis Moore doesn’t get a lot of talk but he’s gonna get a look at some point. Ott could make some drastic changes he could be available at a lateral job, as could Condell. But I think Moore as a 2 man oc could work. If jarious Jackson is out in Edmonton, and I think he will be, he could be a target. External ex bombers. Markus Howell could get a look, lapo could come back, khari could be an oc pass game coach or qb coach candidate Internally. I think Marty Costello will be a real contender. He’s had experience as a run game co ordinator and oc at lower levels. He’s a hot commodity as an ol coach and this is our best chance to keep him locked up. Pair him with a good qb coach to be a pass game coordinator and qb coach. Bourgoins could get some consideration, or even as a pass game coach. I wouldn’t be a big fan of that though, I think we need some out side fresh blood in the offence.1 point -

I really like bucks chances in bc. They want an offensive leadership change, his time with ringmaiden here, his time in bc previously, plus filling the hc spot will leave it too hard to attract a good oc. Going with an established hc may hurt their ability to retain Phillips. mueller is too green still, I think the next closest pick might be lapo. But bucks good years with zach, and browns development will give him the inside track imo.1 point -

What a dynasty means to me
rebusrankin reacted to MOBomberFan for a topic
The Bombers players and coaches may not have brought home the big prize the past few seasons but the Bombers are still wildly successful as a franchise by virtually every other metric... top of the league in attendance thanks to a massive contingent of season ticket holders, an overall record that eclipses the rest of the league dating back nearly a decade, continuous improvements to gameday experience and stadium operations... flaws exist (what org is flawless in sports or otherwise?) but to suggest they are unsuccessful is disingenuous Imagine being a HAM or CGY fan. Shoot me now!1 point -
McManus rarely ever comes North of the border and that is by choice. Unless a team wants a GM conducting business from Florida, or McManus suddenly gets an affinity for being here full time I can't see him moving on. Goveia, otoh, is a much better choice and would be a huge loss to Walters team.1 point

I know a lot of people like Bailey for his emotions and energy. But he just comes off as performative and almost insincere to me. And always has. I will say it's a bit frustrating that he wasn't picked up by the Bombers, but at the same time I could see how his energy may not have always worked. That speech to the kids just amplified the self importance that seems to ooze from him. It's weird cause I usually like that type of energy in a player/person....but with him it just comes off a corny more often than not.1 point -
