  1. Only in Winnipeg would you open a brand new stadium with a 2 - 16, worst team in the history of the organization, gong show like this.

     

    And people wonder why the city/team have such a bad rap????

     

    If Wade doesn't do the right thing and hire an experienced GM to rebuild this steaming pile, then it just confirms what everyone thinks about the city/team.......low budget, second rate outfit that can't attract good coaches and players.

  2. This might be the worst Bomber team ever, scratch that, I don't think there is a might. 

     

    Players and coaches without a doubt. I cut Bellfool some slack only because he doesn't have the horses but Creehan is hands down the worst defensive co I have ever seen. The players he has are nowhere near as bad as he makes them seem.

  3. I'm with ISO on Higgins.  He's top priority.

     

    And you gotta spend money to make money.  If you cheap out and they don't produce, you'll lose more fanbase.  This town needs someone that will razzle dazzle the Bombers into a winning team.  We've already taken chances and it hasn't worked.  We need a few years of stability before trying that out again.

     

    Well who would Higgins attract as far as current QB's go? The guy's been out of the GM/coaching loop for too long now. I'd rather go with someone currently with an organization and hope that he can bring at least one QB with him.

    Once more for the reading impaired.

     

    This is not about bringing in a starter, it's about bringing in a CFL experienced QB to be backup before they are all gobbled up next year when everyone is looking for bodies.

     

    Start now so that come training camp next season we have at least 2 guys battling for the #2 backup job behind our new free agent starter.

    But that would be possibly pointless if they end up hiring a new Coach and GM.  Because if it's not someone they want to work with, even if we got Collaros, it's not going to matter.

     

     

    You can never have too much of a good thing, and I would hope and the new GM/HC does bring a boat load of 'his guys' with him when he arrives.

  6. lol, no one would be expecting him to win, and the playbook could be dumb downed, although I don't know how any dumber it could get. It's time to show the fan base that they aren't just going to roll over and take it up the chute the rest of the season.

  7. This not about signing a reject to be our franchise QB, we all know that they will try to do that in free agency.

     

    This about getting some depth behind him and having a backup with experience if needed.

     

    And just to appease the fan club, Joey Elliot would make a fine #2 behind whoever we get in free agency.

     

    #1 Free agent QB

    #2 Joey Elliot type backup

    #3 The project ala BLM in Calgary

     

    The QB positions needs depth just like all the rest of them.

  8. The fact there will be another team in the league next season makes acquiring any what you can now, even more important, for every QB Ottawa takes another has to replace him, that's going to be 8 - 10 more faces in the league. Grab what you can now is the prudent thing to do when your cupboard is bare. Free agency is too big a crap shoot.

  9. Play Hall for the rest of the season, then get a new QB.  Nothing to be gained from bringing in a has been or never was just because they have some experience.

     

    Same old problem for the Bombers, no experience in the bull pen, needs to stop at some point and might as well be now.

  10.  

    Wade needs someone who can finish this mess of a season off for him because what they currently have is zippo experience.

     

    Time to give Porter or Jyles a call. Even if they sign someone in the off season, they will still need some competition in camp as well as some veteran backup experience for next year.

     

    Besides the two I mentioned, which other veteran guys are sitting at home waiting for a call.

     

    If the CEO is finding players, there are going to be huge issues down the line. His job is strictly managing the business side of the Bombers. His job is to find our next GM, and then the GM will find a Quarterback. If we have a CEO interfering with football ops, we're right back where we started before the cleaning of the house.

     

     

    That's long term, when you're operating with an interim GM, I'd consider this extra-ordinary circumstances, and he was hired to fi the football ops side because what they currently have can't get the job done and I wouldn't want them making any decisions anyways.
