Blue Bombers - 2024 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
GCn20 replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Imo, Taylor was brought in for the very specific reason of being the insurance policy of BA can't go in the playoffs. I highly doubt he is brought in for any other secondary function at this juncture of the season. -

We will IR guys off the PR that we would like to keep for next year I would think -

I am thinking he could play safety still. What's outlandish is saying we were and I quote "lucky as hell to win the cup in 21". There was absolutely zero luck involved and really takes credit away from what was a great team, with great coaching, that achieved great things that year. I guess I'm just a little sensitive to people crapping or taking credit away from a team that really deserves our ongoing respect. -

I have no ignorance of what's going on. I just don't feel the need to rehash criticisms or praise over and over again. It is a fruitless exercise that ends up just annoying everyone. I tend to skew towards positivity when it comes to MOS but not over the top. I just don't feel that the mistakes he has made have outweighed all the great coaching he has also brought to the table. I doubt you find many Bomber fans who do, even those that are very knowledgable about the game. I also don't make outlandish claims to justify my opinion. I respect your opinion a lot Booch but sometimes the hyperbole in your comments is over the top and it ends up taking away from your argument instead of adding to it. -

We were not lucky to win any of our Grey Cups and we were not lucky to get to any of them. Anyone who says otherwise is posting with an agenda. Sorry Booch but that's some kind of bullshit man. You wanna advance your argument about MOS, I get that, but don't make up **** and sell it as fact. Yea, we lost 2 Grey Cup games in a row, but we never played up to our level in either game and we lost both by very tight scores. We were not some kind of smoke and mirror team that got exposed in the big game. That's a crock. Saying stuff like that is a real slap in the face to our players who worked their tails off for us fans to have that chance. -
I spend most of my time in Thompson these days, but it's good to know that Arby's will be around whenever I come back to the city.

I would think he and Taylor are just some late season insurance policies. -

Win/loss and championships are and should be BIG factors in HOF. However, you gotta have the outstanding personal stats to go with it. In iso neither the win%/championships or ind stats should get you there. Must have at least a little of both. Kelly's ind stats are pretty pedestrian imo. -
My take is abuse is not an excuse for 1st degree murder. It was planned and premeditated. Simple as that.

I bought a bottle of horsey to go with an outside round i had cooked and shaved for roast beef on safeway onion buns a couple weeks ago, that's how I knew. I was just looking over the condiment aisle and there it was. I was tickled pink. I used to love the Arbys roast beef sandwiches but am rarely able to get one these days.

Looks that way. Maybe shoring up our SY unit too that literally sucked as well. -
You are half right. There is no use complaining about that tackle and no angle shows definitively that he had a mitt full of jersey. You are allowed to have a hand on the back just can't be grabbing anything. We did not lose because we sucked ass though, that's a Rider thing.

For many, many years when playing vs. the East the Western teams have to overcome the officiating as well.

I didn't notice but I was kind of swearing and jumping around.

The PR increases by 5 people for a 30 day window and then reduces by 5, at the club's option of when they choose that window to be open, between Sept.5 and November.8th. If we opened our window a few days after the NFL cuts that 30 days expiry would coincide with the cuts we saw the other day. The PR does expire at season's end but the 30 day expanded PR window can end anytime from Oct. 4 - Nov. 8 and if clubs have used the expanded PR, like we do every year, then they must reduce numbers at the time the 30 day window expires. PRs go from 12 to 17 players with an extra NAT necessary in those 5 if the club already has bare minimum NATs on the PR. It's all on CFLdb. -

Dobson had many OLE moments throughout the game. He was constantly being pushed back into the pocket. Not trying to absolve Kola, but Dobson was straight up losing his man on man blocking assignments. -
Can't challenge horse collar tackle.

They sell it at Walmart.

Toronto mauled our OL. I don't suspect that will happen again. We seem to have a game like that every 5-6 games for some reason then the hogs get po'ed and dominate for a few.

That would be my guess. I believe the PR increases for a few weeks and then goes back to regular just before the last game so that teams can bring in guys for a late season look and give prospects for next year some things to work on before they come to camp. -

Yea...the scoreboard really did flatter the Argos to a great degree. We didn't make the inches when we needed them and that was our downfall on the day. We left 16 points out there. -

Liam Dobson was the biggest problem I saw out there. He lost nearly every 1v1 to Ceresna he had. -

PJ Walker represents a bonafide chance at moving on from McCheese. I would be excited if I were a Stamps fan. -

The last couple years of Darvin's time here were mired in injuries and inconsistency, but he did give us a few really good years of production and big play capability. You are correct that it was time to move on, but you are also glossing over a number of years he was a consistent 1000 yard guy for us that played football the right way. Bailey was a warrior who did everything we asked of him and did it for peanuts. Are we better off without him....well with the emergence of Wheatfall and Wilson it would be pretty hard to argue that we aren't. He played his heart out for us though. Over rated...maybe...but that's because fans respected his game. -

When Jake Maier is the best in your QB stable you gotta turn over every stone looking for a new QB.
