2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Bigblue204 replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Augustine is a guy I hate to see go...but i get why he wasn't a priority. He'll go down as a "oh what could have been" player for me. Cause I think he had what it took to be a starting RB. -
2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Bigblue204 replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Yes they absolutely can lol. See Bo Levi. He had tremendous stats last year. But they came too little too late. Which basically sums up Harris' CFL career. If harris has proven anything as a qb in the CFL it's that stats will absolutely lie lol. Remember when the bombers played hamilton and they had the ball on the final drive and had to score? What did they do? Who controlled that drive? Now Remember the banjo bowl when Harris had an almost identical situation. You let me know how that played out. Those two games nicely sum up both careers imo. Collaros isn't perfect, but I'll take a guy who has proven he can get it done multiple times, even if it's ugly over a guy who puts up stats but has never gotten it done. -

I think a lot of the problems with the OL last year come down to Brady again...(dead horse here I come!). The OL is a run first OL imo...at least that's what they do the best. I hope they get back to that bully ball mentality they pretended they'd have last season. I don't want Collaros to have to throw for 4000 yrds. I want to be hoping Brady is closing in on 1500 yrds running and 500 yrds rec. Wallace/Eli/Nuef will be absolutely fine if Dlines have to try to stop the run more often than not. Control the ball, run it till you make them stack the box then put it up for Schoen/Mitchell/White etc..not the other way around. -

the only thing that really annoyed me this offseason is SSK getting Mcewen....theyve shored up their OL imo. -

Bigblue204 replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
no glaring holes. But our OL/DL don't fill me with confidence right now. That may change before the season and will hopefully change during with their play. But right now I'd like to see a few more bodies brought in. I'm guessing the draft will provide some and whatever shakes loose in the weeks leading up to TC. -

Honestly I don't even know why they're going to play this season. It's already over for them -

The Natural Disasters!! -
And now we're beating a dead horse...but that's what was so maddening about it. They showed they could adjust and change things up against TO. That's how they came back in the regular season game against them. The one at home. They changed up what they were doing in the second half. I assumed that's how they'd attack in the GC....but they didnt...just....why? Why buck? Why'd you do us like that?

Sorry man, you lost me here lol. Not sure what this has to do with what I posted...? Also generally insulting people with personal attack on here is what get those warnings if I'm not mistaken...I only know cause I"ve got them before too lol. -

Bigblue204 replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I don't even look at the comments on those posts. They're often "Why didn't they trade for Rourke?" "We should have signed Micah Johnson" type of barely coherent stuff....or the flip side "Jake Thomas coming back is HUGE!" -
2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Bigblue204 replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Freisen is a hack. He's always taken shots at the Bombers. "They're cheap skates!" because they're spending the amount they can spend? So dumb. It's a click bate narrative for low iq football fans -
Yes. The Bombers knew where to attack and how to break what the riders had been doing. The riders had a horrible game plan and their players didn't do enough to over come.
-
I don't think it's wrong to say the Bombers beat the tar out of the riders in the WF. They did. They did so by having a game plan to attack the weakest part of their defense (regardless of what the media said, it was their secondary by a mile) AND make Trevor win the game for them, which was never an option. They also had the right players play well. When they win, it's because all of the components have come together properly. Just like when they lose, it's because multiple things fail. To push it to one person not doing this or doing that is just flat out incorrect. Go ahead and say a qb should win games by himself. That's an incredibly ignorant take and completely ignores the reality of what makes football the greatest game on the planet.
-
Collaros didn't play well in the GC games. But he also wasn't put in a position to play well in those games. It's very rarely about 1 guy. I don't think paying him as much as they have been is worth it, but they made that bed a while ago and have to sleep in it now. I know 1 thing is for certain. That was his biggest cheque of his career, past or future.
-
Ford is the real deal imo. Just hard to justify spending a lot on that position...especially field side. Good luck to him just not against us.

Bigblue204 replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
If Strev is starting next season it'll free up a decent amount of $$ to spend else where. The highest paid QB hasn't won a GC in quite sometime. Could you imagine if people stuck with Fajardo, built a team and system around him that complimented him well. Nah that wouldn't work. I mean the guy has been nothing but a short yardage specialist/3rd stringer basically his entire career.
