IF they bring back Burke they will have to give away season tickets and they will have to deal with yet another year of purgatory .... it would be an awful move. Another full year of him throwing everyone under the bus and doing a player roulette hoping that whoever they plug in can do the job.

Lol I hope you are joking !!

I literally spit my drink out on that last part lol

It's not like Mack who wasn't around for a good long time, just because someone has a few years away from the job doesn't mean he can't just come in and continue success. Kent Austin is doing "ok" in his first year back with a team coming off a really bad year.

So Is Goltz going to see the field at all for the rest of this season?

I'll take anyone new, Burris works for me. It's not like we will win the grey cup next season so maybe a stop gap who can stay healthy would work.

The Bombers have the best red zone % in the league they said... That is mostly because of Goltz and his legs.... Yet Burke keeps putting Boltus in... Blows my mind... Hall wasn't doing that great he came on strong later on but for most of the first half he really sputtered and tossed some really ugly passes. He at least didn't look scared or made blatantly horrible decisions.... If only he could run and have an arm like Reilly....

My thoughts... Hall is to slow and doesn't have the arm for this league. In the first half he only could dink it 5 yards and couldn't hit anything while on the run. He had two ints taken away from penalties. That being said he's the best we got for now. Ford isn't starting material but he's good as a change of pace back. The O line aside from the one big run was poor. Guys were hitting ford the second he had the ball. Montreal was god awful, nieswander had time to throw but just made some poor throws. They looked like they had zero interest in playing. I thought the lbers and secondary were solid and had a lot of hustle. Overall with all those turnovers we should of won by a lot more...

They have the talent its ridiculous to say they don't have any.

I think if the defense comes out to play it'll be a close game.... I think it will be a win if the Blue don't stumble and give up an easy 14 points in the first 5 minutes....

After Burke gives a quote like that then clearly it is the coaching!!!

It's laughable to think anyone would choose Collaros over Ray at this point. It's not like Ray is old as dirt like Calvillo and only has a season or two left in him.... He makes mediocre receivers look like superstars...

Kelly at least showed emotions... and sadly Burke's legacy will be possibly lower then both Kelly and Reinbold...

I remember TSN showing a pre game speech by Austin and the dude showed fire and his players listened to him and got pumped up. I highly doubt that Burke even remotely motivates the guys before the game.

Sad Fact..... I wore my Bombers Golf T-Shirt to work today.... I was ridiculed by at least 10 different individuals who all called the Blue a joke and that I'm brave for wearing the colors of a garbage team. Ouch.....

Clearly the reason they have not fired Burke is because of $$$ reasons and because it makes no sense bringing in anyone to be the new HC and who would they promote??? Creehan???

Lol at people complaining that Walters didn't bring in a receiver. Because apparently a gm can only focus on one spot of the team at a time lol.

If Burke is back then I'm skipping next season and so will many many other people.

The year after jyles we sucked bad. I'm not saying in comparison To this season. The offense sputtered badly the year after Jyles left. Remember we started off hot winning lots of close games where our defense with Willis absolutely dominated. Then after labor day the defense got worn out and we lost many games and barely made it through the playoffs to the cup.

Etienne has at least made catches and plays I'm his brief time. Kohlert looks great because he constantly has to dive or make difficult catches because our qbs stink. I'm sure Etienne would do well if our offense could actually play at an average level.

17 my point was that it was Burke's defense that kept us competitive. Lapolices offense was terrible, almost as bad as it is today. Do we not remember how great our defense was and how they kept us in the game while Buck and Brink sputtered...

I totally disagree The team was very bad and only our rock solid defense kept us competitive. The moment Burke left the defense to be hc and also the moment Harris passed away the teams defense took a massive nose dive. Forget not our offense has sucked since Jules was traded and buck became really glass Joe from punch out. Lapo sucked big time.

I actually still pin this on lapo and Burke more so then Mack. It all goes back to poor offense and sticking with buck for two seasons to many. A huge part of the problem was Lapo and his vanilla offense and the two seasons of patchwork of then trying to repair it.

I guess Matthews is also useless then based on your opinion. I think all the receivers get a pass based on how facked up the o has been. Foster I'd be more concerned considering he has been with a more stable team and couldn't crack the line up.

I went over the list, the amount of guys who were drafted and still playing for the team is a bit higher then my estimate and it was around 40%. However if you were to remove guys who simply ONLY play special teams... then it's much lower. Most of these guys are crap and out of all of them how many have been all stars?
