Ok, now I think people are going too hard in the other direction here.
Last year Brady was absolute crap for the first half of the season and clearly made changes to be the incredible back he was for the last half of 2022 and all of 2023. It is not all the OL and not every back will have close to his success. Augustine had a high average at the end of blow out games. It's not an equal comparison.  

Exhibit A: Eric Lindross

US RB's are getting better as the years go by and more schools are running Spread type stuff in pass protection and receiving, but that can be a huge issue depending what kind of offense they've played coming up.  CFL is a lot different.

That first Super Bowl was coaching his defense carried that team. People forget he is one of the biggest defensive minds to ever coach the game. 

Can't wait for more of the 'running backs are a dime a dozen' posts. After that, do linebackers.

The thing I’d miss most about Brady though is his work in the pass game both receiving and blocking. Blocking in particular, I’m not sure if any of those guys can match. 
 
Strictly running the ball, yes I think any of the 3 you mentioned would do as well or better than Brady. 
 

If we lose Brady, I will greatly miss how he dictated the tone to opponents, how he established the run to open up play action the pass game, how he was a multi threat and, as importantly, his sidelines off field contributions. 
I don't think he's a dime a dozen.

It has been wonderful to witness our beloved football team emerge from the Canadian Football Hinterland.  Savouring their success is akin to the gradual imbibement of single malt.  Would that I still had young days ahead of me, and could fully take to the field again.

Why would Stanley Bryant have to wait for the dominoes to fall?  He negotiates his own contracts and it's not like he's inline for a raise.  I guess if Walters wanted to chop his salary too much, he could always make more playing elsewhere.

I heard they fart in his general direction.

I actually kind of missed Loquacious Larry. 
Gimmicks make the off-season more entertaining. 

It's mostly 2 grey cups losses, though. 

Yes ....hindsight is always 20/20 BUT I could see the potential early....You have to admit he had one helluva arm and those passes eventually had accuracy.....which unfortunately we didn't benefit from as he moved on...His rise to something special came in Ham.....He finally figured the game out there and his teaming up with Flutie for over 5,000 yds was quite impressive....Reminds me a little bit of Schoen and Zack when they get rolling...In any event Danny ended up having a solid CFL career and his being a part of the Bombers today is greatly appreciated

Heard the contract was written in Gaelic.

Possibly but that doesn't mean we can't be civil with one another when we disagree with what they are saying.

I assume you mean stuff like the comments about a former Riders' head coach?
It did take quite a bit of work to clean that kind of stuff up - but it is better now.
