    Mark H. got a reaction from SpeedFlex27 in Call it what you want … you need to move on from Collaros   
    It appears fairly certain (baring injury) that Collaros will be playing in Winnipeg until his contract is up.  Given this team's history at the QB position, I don't see how anyone can be firmly on side with letting him go.
    I mean, you've probably got an eye on the future, and that's fine.  But it's pretty safe to say that the Bombers are focused on winning a GC at home, in 2025. ZC gives them the best chance to do that.
    He's had some bad games, some of which were unfortunately Grey Cups.  But that's going to happen no matter who you have behind centre.  I think we have the talent on the OL - to get back to kind of protection he was getting when he first came to Winnipeg.  The brain thrust needs to start the players who can make that happen.  
    If you're in the position of several other teams around the league, then you absolutely go with a guy like Brown.  In Winnipeg, you play the safe card and go with the experienced vet.

    Right. Point is, it's not a given that moving from ZC is the right move.

    I actually thought Kramdi got better as the season went along... by the end he was a more than solid contributor. I've got high hopes he can take another step next season...

    Winning starts in the trenches. If a bad team wants to change its fortunes that where you start. Look at Lawler in Edmonton in 2022 or Gino Lewis there last season. Getting production out of one star wideout never helped. Solid linemen on both sides of the ball win games. We started winning in 2015 when our lines began to play better. They aren't exciting picks but linemen win championships.

    Well, you're not the HC or GM so clearly the Bombers won't be moving on from Zach. It's a qb wilderness out there. Do you see who's available & who we could sign to replace Zach if we traded or released him? Other than Dru Brown (who has only a little body of work as a starter) there's guys like Marcus Fine, Dane Evans, Matthew Schilz & Jake Dolegala. Throw in MBT & maybe Streveler (who isn't a starting qb) & I'll take Zach every day of the week.

    and last year was the first time we've really questioned him, so it's possible that he was playing through an injury or something and last year was just an aberration... it's at least POSSIBLE that next year he's back to being absolutely dominant again.

    Yeah, #66 is not as shutdown as he used to be, but they certainly won't find anyone better to replace him
    If he wants to put his body through another season, it's a win win for the team

    Converted to Canadian $, that's $400 000. Two thirds of Collaros' annual contract.
