Thats kinda true, But I dont think 50-100k difference from him to harris is that big. The REAL hand cuffs in BC is ed hervey. This off season i feel like you can easily roll the dice on 2 good qbs for that total. Player to player id take MR, factor in deals and I would rather get 2 Fas then go with harris.

Harris played his best football and was comparable to a down MR in a poor offense. Head to head I would take Reilly over harris and its not even close. Harris is still a guy that struggles to find the end zone especially when you need a score and much like Henry burris his turn overs come at bad times. The biggest difference in those situation is calgary has made a dynasty out of dumping players at the right time and going young. Next man up. And calgary has a starter on the bench behind blm right now. Dont know if they will pull the plug on BLM or not, but I would.

yeah pretty much, though with his athletic ability and football skills I think he can be a look at me kind of guy. I think the big difference between his season and JSK season was our LBer usage. Though jsk was more of a hitter, I prefer the sound tackling of kyrie in that respect. It will be interesting to see if our useage next year is different and if we see a drastic change in kyrie and bighills stats. must be a lock now that streveler will be back lol.

His speed and range were incredible. I think he would have done better up here then Ray Lewis. Yes soo much. Gl stoping Clowney too. Maybe the most unstoppable would be the athletic tes though. Big strong fast vs Sam and DBS 30-40 lbs lighter it'd be Mike sellers gone wild.

Our lb core didn't play nearly as well as they did the previous year but they filled a different role. Wilson made some fantastic plays but didn't perform at a level that likely gets an NFL deal or a huge contract. About the only way we don't bring him back is if we got a ratio breaker like judge at a good deal but I don't see that happening. Glad yoshi is back off season is off to a great start.

as long as the players are over 6' tall. 🤣

Fantastic news, the whole canadian mafia returns! Screw dickenson.

In that case i really hope they dont do some thing similar with mcdoodoo.

Streveler is underdeveloped as a passer, and really needs an offense designed around him. Im not talking about just running packages. He has great arm talent. He isnt joe montana, and the lapo offense doesnt suit him well. Hes a more aggressive passer, shots down field, medium range lasers at the seam, if any thing more like what fajardo does. He does need to take another step forward as a passer, especially in reading and running an offense. His decision making isnt where it needs to be to be considered for a starting spot.

I suspect they would go BPA. Thats what they normally do, they just dont evaluate talent the same as others around the league. Its a really talented top end to the draft. If we go OL, I hope its a futures guy. Some one that can go back to college or will kick around the nfl a while. I think another year will clarify the logjam of really good canadian OL we have right now. Bennett is an awesome prospect and we all love to have the local players. I can even imagine having him rotate with kongbo (if he ends up back). I would love jeffcoat and wj back. But kongbo and bennett would be an insane rotation.

Dinwiddie seems really rushed as a HC. It could work, but man he is not a guy id want to count on to make the play offs this year or next. The way the argos went about this is really poor, and reflects badly on them. It would have been easy to clean house or even just take time to decide. But every thing out of TO was pro chamblin staying. Milanovich, im kind of surprised he came back. Im kind of surprised hes right back to being a HC too. This off season was shaping up to be really interesting and the front office / coaching decisions alone have been a bit wild. Its nice for once not to have a coach thats bad for the league / makes the league look bad. Once hervey is toast the purge should be complete. Right now Id put the chance that buck becomes our OC at 80%. With a small chance they try for some one like chapdelaine or condell as a OC/ast HC. I wouldnt mind it if they brought back bob dyce as an ast OC to buck. But I think hes trending towards higher jobs.

Thats true, but the unit and play call they went to in the play offs would have performed much better during the regular season.

Lockheed martin doesnt likes this comment.

Swaggervile had some incredible individual talents. the 2019 unit got it done though, with out the need to be tacky, and with much better team play.

I hope one of the other two goes with masoli.

I agree. This management group isnt that type. This is a huge opportunity to grow the bombers market share. The team has a key opening at OC, Mos deal isnt done yet, and lots of big FA holes. I doubt they will have the money to bring every one back, mean while two of our top execs are top candidates to also be poached. Every ones getting WBB GC merch for the holidays.

I think we will just see teams spending even more at the QB position, rather then less at starter. I think all the other positions will take a hit to make up for it.

I think for the very short future this will hold true. We have a rare situation where there are more starting QBs, then starting jobs. I dont think it will continue though, once the old guard of starters are gone teams will again over pay for a proven starter for fear of ending up with out one. 1290 is basically jets/nhl network. I miss when they covered more local sports. I feel like the jets brain drain chokes the life out of none hockey sports in the province more and more every year.

He did end up on the PR here for a couple weeks after the one game return stint. I wouldnt be surprised to see him back in camp next year. Great talent, he is easily good enough to be playing in the league.

A lot of people especially on here have maligned 3 of those 4. And continue to talk bad about MBT (who belongs in that list imo) It seems like the actual pay is going to be well below the cfl level (average to average) So I dont see them draining a lot of big name prospects we would other wise gets or cfl starters. (maybe some one like jonathon jennings) Im sure they will stumble on one or 2 guys with a pulse. But they wont stumble into enough QBs to make a whole league work.

Happy he is getting another chance, but it seems like he is going to fall into the same trap again. His down fall is always his in game play call. If he could not micro manage the offense and let an OC run it, I think he'd be a really successful HC. Hes a great person and hes great at coaching players. He could be Mos 2.0 or better if he doesnt do the offensive play call full time. I hope he figures it out and makes it work. Itll be interesting to see who, if any one he takes from us in FA.

When youre qb is hitting 50/50 deep balls with deadly accuracy and your rb is plowing through tacklers yeah skill can out shine play call. If any thing its a hasty generalization of post hoc ergo propter hoc. You think because we won and the team put up 30 points the offense was great. While ignoring all the facts from 2 and outs, to 3 total touchdowns in the last 2 games despite red zone drives some where in the double digits, with double digit turn overs forced, and 11 field goal attempts in those 2 games. (15 field goals, 6 tds, 14 turn overs from the D in the play offs)

Just excuses and using the outcome to justify poorly designed offense. They didnt stop harris all night and we werent running audibles in the red zone. Youre just flip flopping because of the outcome and rose tinted glasses. If the offense did the exact same and we lost youd be hoping on the other bandwagon. You know, the exact same one you were captaining leading up to the game. Zero integrity.

I feel like we are quickly approaching a critical mass with the developmental canadian back ups. But then again, I could see a guy or two retiring in the off season. We see more and more guys retire young to maintain a higher quality of life.

Do you think the red zone play calls were good? How many carries did harris get? Thats defense, and with any more tds we may probably dont make it to a GC. The players played on a whole other level. The D play call was tremendous. The O play call didnt get in the way in the end. Thats not nearly the same thing as being good. Ends dont justify the means, and winning doesnt mean the play call was great.
