Its been a long off season but there's reason to believe that maybe this season will be better than the last.

Finally he made the right decision..he should have known and sucked it up after his 6 workouts after the Packers it wasn't in cards right now. History of players of his football pedigree never will succeed at qb down there...its a fact He has a lot to prove and learn and he finally will have the environment now to do it...now let's see what he does with it. Sure he looks the part...but so do a lot of players but they just can't make the jump. Lighting up Canadian college kids is a far cry from transferring it in pros..so the sooner he got here to try..the better his longterm football life will be Also I couldn't care less about people's boner about a Canadian qb..its irrelevant as the qb is just 1 of 24 starters...as a coach I want the 22...or 24 best available to me regardless of where they came from. To force a Canadian one...and 99 percent of time a lesser talent into one the more important spots to satisfy some stupid narrative...is well stupid...I could care less if he was a shot on a rock hatched by the sun...if hes the best then he plays

Got any cheeeeeeessse?

Saw some of the exit interview with him, he’s a conceited prick, great professional goaltender but still a conceited prick. This is why some professional athletes should not be idolized, they provide great entertainment but that’s where the appreciation should end for athletes like him.

lol you, me and literally every other literate person here all know that’s not all you said. You’ve been shitting on this guy for months because his career goals don’t align with your fandom. I hope you can learn to cheer for him and anyone else who chooses to manage their own career

he wasnt really made to kick anything over 40 yards...thats what...his consecutive streak record the league blkathered on about was a load of horsepiss as he kicked what...5 maybe over 40+ yards? confidence dropped when made to kick real FG's....basically

agreed...should b....better be....and if it's not based on Walter's work....then cutting the head off the coaching aspect who is the one in charge of roster...player retention and deletions....game day preparedness and adjusting has to be done...and basically confirms where the main issues lie....and I'd do it in the last 3rd of the season if we on outside looking up....and get the head start going into Grey Cup week to let any interested parties know we in the market....or do our own back channel tampering...as it's a common thing anyway so for us not o do it is just dumb For now will give the benefit of the doubt based on moves and guys we moved on from...coaches we didnt retain (tho one is still lingering around...and god knows why) Now was that all Walter's doing and removing temptations?...guess we shall see when final roster is posted after TC and how the first 3 or so games go and if it's just becoe the same ol same ol...just with a new cast of characters I am skeptically optimistically at current, and think maybe some have learned finally and its adapt/evolve...or die...we shall see....but looking forward to camp and intend to try and get there several times to see first hand...I have no faith and trust in the media based on what I see from them when there...and what I read after the fact...and Tait's articles albeit a good read and well done, and enjoyable...are a lot of fluff pieces based on his marching orders

Trade him for a bag of hockey pucks. No place for egomaniacs on this team. And ,what has he proved beyond the regular season?

It's revenue, not profit. Their TV deal alone is reportedly worth around 20 million so they do seem to meet that criteria.

got the yips

The TC battle for QB 2 and 3 tho just got more interesting no doubt. But appears to be one of perhaps 3 or 4 interesting TC battles at spots, DL, DB and Receiver being the other. Perhaps center OL depending on draft.

Shitass long winter and offseason blues...Draft ( for the Bombers and Jets!) Can't come soon enough!

Jets sign defenceman Garrett Brown to a two-year, entry-l...Brown signs two-year, entry-level contract with an average annual value of $1,050,000 in the NHL.Drafted 4 years ago at 5'9" He's 6'4" now

Tommy Stevens also massive and one of the best short yardage guys.

Super pumped about Elgersma. He's definitely not just some scrub Canadian QB fodder. He's got the size, skills, and pedigree to be the next Rourke. He was the best Packers QB not named Love during their training camp last year. I think this guy is the real deal and our future at QB. Exciting stuff.

Finally the kid made the right move and we'll get to see first hand what he's got and what we seen when we drafted him.....I hope he works out .....nice to see another Canadian qb get talked about besides the pivot in BC . ....Zack will be a great teacher and one Elgersma will learn a lot from...Looks like he's got all of the tools and it would be great for us to develop another CFL qb into a winner.....Here's hopin'

I heard his work visa was denied due to social media posts that were negative about McDonald's and DoorDash.

Dude, he's Canadian - we stopped selling bourbon.

I’m like W5, why couldn’t he get a work visa? ICE saw his social media postings?

It’s crazy, because if anything I think he’s underhyped at this point. We all really have no idea, he’s raw and will need coaching but the NFL liked his tools and I don’t see why we wouldn’t either. But because the majority of us are butthurt, we just expect him to suck. He might but he also might be our next QB1. We’re so far removed from what he’s been working on to have any idea if he’s good or not.

I think he becomes one of the most interesting training camp stories now. Let's see how fast he gets up to speed.

The visa was never coming.
