2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
Arnold_Palmer replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Good Luck to Buck! Wasn’t crazy about his play calling, especially this season. Very predictable and not a lot of adjustments. I’m curious to see who Winnipeg looks at to replace him. -

One of the few vets we NEEDED back. Good signing. -

I’m going to reserve judgment but man if you’re an Elks fan I would find it hard to be excited right now. -

CFL the one professional league where you can continue to fail upwards! A ST coordinator fired for poor performance and gets consideration for several head coaching opportunities. Make it make sense! -

Interesting. Their D has not been good since he’s been the Defensive coordinator. -

I would have no issues bringing back Lapo if Buck bolts to B.C. listen I’m excited what he would be able to do to get Oliveria the football. And in time in Winnipeg he had Nichols as his QB and Darvin Adam’s as our best receiver. He got the most out of the offense with what he had. I liked how he got people included in the offense. People say he’s conservative but for most of his time here look what he has to work with. His play calling in the 2019 playoffs was a big part of why we ended up winning the cup that year. -

Who knows what he really thinks. He’s not going to publically throw his coach under the bus. Whether or not there’s private discussions who knows, if O’Shea said he wasn’t happy with Bucks play calling the same people would be mad he was blaming Buck. -
3 turds plus crappy honker. Long winter edition.
Arnold_Palmer replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I mean I don’t blame him. He’s a competitor. As a player you always have to have that confidence that you’re going to preform no matter what. It’s up to the coaches to make those decisions -

Yeah the kick coverage was pretty good for the bombers almost all year. In all fairness instead of big booming kicks that set up a longer return we has low line drives that were stopped for minimal yards gained after the catch. I guess it’s all relative in the end. -

Arnold_Palmer replied to TBURGESS's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I’ll give him a little grace. 11, 50 yard field goals, 2 from 60 plus, he had a bad night with the chipped footballs and was pretty much our only source of points when we offense was struggling in the first half of the season. -

I want Willie J back but if he thinks he deserves a raise after the season he had he’s mistaken. You’re absolutely correct. He was outstanding during the grey cup but took way too many plays off during the regular season. -

Maybe some dimwit will take Jake on if he wants to continue to play. On paper he’s a “starting Canadian DT” on the number one defense in the league. Someone will hopefully be desperate enough to sign him. Hoping he’s not us. -

Huge opportunity to move on from a lot of under achieving vets. -
111th Grey Cup- Argos vs Bombers GDT
Arnold_Palmer replied to Nolby's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
For sure. I mean tons of drops and the play calling was terrible. All those quick short passes we were doing during the 8 game winning streak were thrown out the window. We attacked Toronto like we attacked Saskatchewan and it was a mistake. If you want to come out aggressive that’s one thing but clearly it wasn’t working out and the fact that Zach and Buck didn’t adapt ended up costing us big time. -
111th Grey Cup- Argos vs Bombers GDT
Arnold_Palmer replied to Nolby's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I’m honestly not even that mad over this loss. I was crushed in 22, and 23 because it felt like we were in control most of the game but couldn’t put it away. This year it felt like we were hanging by a thread all game. -
The positivity thread (don’t look back in anger)
Arnold_Palmer replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
A lot of good pieces here for the future. I would be so excited for this core if we had Dru Brown here this season. Sure maybe because of the injuries and growing pains I’m not sure we would have won the west with Dru this season but we would be set for a really outstanding 2025 season with the grey cup at home. Now it really feels like a tale of two teams. The old under achieving vets, and the young come to play rookies. I sincerely hope Walters and management look in the mirror and start to make the tough decisions on guys who have been here long after their expiration date. A blow out in the grey cup is an embarrassment and this is now the third straight grey cup that we were out coached and lost to a team who wanted it more. There’s a lot of young pieces on this team that are ready to make the leap but it all falls under which direction they want to take the team in. -

What a dynasty means to me
Arnold_Palmer replied to Zach Schnitzer's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Love it man! These really are the best days and all I can do is soak it all in. I lost my grandfather shortly before the 2019 run and we used to watch a lot of games together over the years. I was so sad we couldn’t share that moment together, almost 30 years of watching together without a Bomber Grey Cup win. I’ll never take this journey for granted it’s a one in a life time type of run. -
Awards and all star selections mean a lot more when you’ve only won 4 championships in over 100 years give them a break!

CFL - 2024 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Arnold_Palmer replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
The biggest gripe I have with Buck is how he miss managed Streveler. Because of how predictable his package was it’s no surprise our offense actually got better once he went down. So many drives stalling because they wouldn’t throw in a wrinkle and let him throw on second and short. -

lol! Wow bad position for Hamilton to be in. Dude put up tons of numbers in garbage time. I wouldn’t give him the big bucks. -
2-6 that’s all they need to remember. Nothing is given it’s earned. Bombers will be focused.

Bonds was also lock down too. You never heard his name which is the best compliment you can get as a DB
