Around The League Off Season Discussion
SpeedFlex27 replied to Bomber_fanaddict's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Reilly is a franchise qb. He had had a few injuries but seemed fairly healthy this past season. I think he is the face of the Eskimos. That would be a shocking event if he was traded to another team. Speaking of teams, when will the Argos make the move at head coach &/or GM? They've had nearly a month to figure out what they should do. I thought Milanovich would have been gone by Wednesday. -
Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
SpeedFlex27 replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Still need to build the Canadian content with the team especially at receiver & the DL so I don't like trading our first pick either. Although at #5 there may be players who can help us who won't have the stars of the NFL look in their eyes than at #1. -
Hitler never did anything to you, either. Do you have a poster of Adolph in your room?

I just read he snatched Bennett off the PR? The PR?? I thought Bennett was part of the main roster? What a waste? Why did we have him on the team just to lose him like that? Actually all players on the PR are Fa's once the season ends. Great.

Ottawa 40 years.

What did I miss?

Bennett intrigues me more than Davis. I'd be more than willing to see his stock rise on the Bomber depth chart.
-
Dynasty? LOL!

We have 2 draft picks in the 1st round. I don't want us to send that first pick to Edmonton for an unproven rookie qb. We need to still build our Canadian content. If the Riders trade for Franklin & dump Durant, good for them. They'll win 3 games instead of 5 or 6.

So, if the Bombers are willing to pay $350,000 & Nichols wants $450,000 they settle at $400,000. That's the going rate. Bombers will have to pay.

Choke,,,,

The Stamps could have won the game & they take out Mitchell & put in Buckley & it backfires. Then in OT a circus catch by Ottawa for the win. The 15 win team actually loses to the 8 win team.

They spend 6 hours of pre game Grey Cup coverage today but show an NCAA game Thursday night instead of the CFL Awards. TSN is bush league all the way.

Life's a beach in Trudeau's world. All flowers & sunshine. This is just typical Trudeau shill. How many stupid comments has he made over terrorist attacks in Europe? "Canada stands with the City of Paris". Canada stands with the City of Brussels". "Canada stands with the people of Belgium". "Canada stands with the people of France". Meanwhile, Justin does nothing. He needs to go stand in the corner. If Trudeau says he has these countries backs, they're in huge trouble.
-
Pierre Trudeau was a member of the Canadian Communist Party in the 50's & was a labor organizer in Quebec. He later became a Liberal when he entered federal politics. So, you know Justin was impressed by Castro as his father was enamoured with him. Two fellow communists talking by the fire. I don't agree that "All of Canada mourns". No, Justin does so don't include the rest of us.

Could be but I think Mitchell is a far more consistent qb than Henry Burris. The weather will be good & the track fast. The RedBlacks won't be able to run on the Stamps like they did against the Eskimos in the snow. The RedBlacks receivers are phenomenal. As a group better than the Stamps but the Stamps running game with Jerome Messam spelled off by Roy Finch are better. Stamps defense is very, very good. I think the Stamps ST's are better than the RedBlacks The other huge advantage is Dave Dickenson. He called a game in the Western Final that totally confused the Lions defense. He is a great offensive schemer & play caller. Mitchell has played in his offense for 4 seasons. They both know the playbook inside out & sideways. They both think alike. However, the Grey Cup is a 1 shot deal & not a best of 7. As it is a single game championship, we know that even though the Stamps are favored, anything can happen "On Any Given Sunday".

I probably don't. I am not as knowledgeable as you when it comes to the Jets. I read your posts & you are certainly clued into the team on a day to day basis a lot more than I am. I just know the team isn't performing well. Goaltending & injuries seem to be the big issue. I just think it's unfair to solely lay the blame at the feet of Paul Maurice. That's all I really have to say. I could be totally wrong.

GMs can't keep firing coaches because of mistakes the GM makes. We all know that. GMs usually have 2 head coaches they can fire before it's all dumped on them. For years now we've heard how the Jets supposedly have the best prospects playing in their system since 2013. So far, what have we seen? Most of them are playing on the Moose & aren't in a position to help us... yet. Maybe they will eventually (sure hope so) but the process is taking a long, long time. Meanwhile we don't build by trade or free agency so to be able to draft correctly is ultra important to get it right. I'm hoping that the draft prospects start working out & soon but it doesn't look like it this season. If Chevy cans Maurice it may be the last head coaching fire & hire that he does for the Jets.
-
They'll never catch up. The season may have 60 games left but unless they go 45-15 from here on in they'll play the chase game the rest of the season just like last season & fail. Jets goaltending is just lousy & was overrated going into the season. None of the guys we have in net are capable of carrying the team. The prospects we have in our system haven't developed yet. Some of our veterans are not playing well & we have injury issues. Maurice can't make chicken salad out of chicken feathers. You can blame Paul Maurice all you like but some of this mess is on our GM as well.

Franco was a fascist not a communist.

The Jets future looked promising even after being swept in 4 games by the Ducks in the opening round of the 2015 NHL playoffs. They've fallen into a vast pit since. What happened? I keep waiting for all these prospects we're supposed to have to actually start contributing & the Jets start winning. So far not much. We are committed to building slowly via the draft & nor free agency or by trade. At some point the blame has to be put on Cheveldayoff instead of firing head coaches.

Their offensive line is beat up. That could be their achilles heel in this game.
-
I've never been impressed with Jeff Orridge. He needs to be replaced.
-
At least Orridge acknowledges Grey Cup tickets were too high. I wonder what ticket prices for the Cup in Ottawa will be next year?
-
I think Calgary is already a dynasty. I don't know Grey Cup records but has any team won more Grey Cups from them the past 20 years or more? They've been on top for years & years.
