Jeff Garcia fired by St Louis (Los Angeles) Rams... curious if he would make a return to CFL coaching if no NFL team is interested... -
The biggest question I have after this signing... why is Brohm still on the roster???
-
Harris has publicly stated he wants to be the highest paid QB in the CFL... now that may be unrealistic for him but if you think he's gonna take an incentive-laden contract to back up somewhere, you're mistaken... I would suspect he might look to sign somewhere like Mtl, where they have no clear starter... BC might even be an option if they are not ready to hand the keys to Jennings... I'm actually surprised Toronto chose to sign Ray over Harris... I thought they might be ready to move forward with him...
-
Miller = business responsibilities... Walters = football operations... unfortunately the two are too closely related to ignore the fact the one impacts the other... by association, Miller has not done well...

good insurance...

It's pretty sad that just making the playoffs is considered a bold prediction... but that's the state we're in...

I think you're pretty much in the best place for that... -
Ideally we draft someone at 9 or 10 good enough to be the sixth man... then we will probably take a prospect later in the draft (assuming one worthy of drafting is available).... then if we can sign a fa good enough to start or at least be the sixth man we would be in a favorable position...
-
What's the saying?.... Those who can't play, coach... something like that...
-
I'm not sure what his status is with GB... but I know he has too much talent to not get a few more looks in the NFL before it's all over...
-
I wonder how many people in attendance at a bomber game can actually name both the OC and DC...
-
I was just about to ask how to like and quote posts... then I realized I wasn't signed in... looks great, thanks @Rich and admins for all the extra work put in...

The situation alone is evidence. He didn't just decide to quit and coincidentally get scooped up by Edmonton as finders keepers. I haven't really been following the story on Thorpe and I am not 100% sure on the "Tampering Rules". But if Thorpe talks to Edmonton about a job then quits and joins them is that still tampering? Or is it only tampering if Edmonton goes to Thorpe without asking permission. I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure even if Thorpe contacts Edm about a job... their only response should be "sorry we can't speak to someone under contract about that"... -
I don't think this is as big of a deal as it once was. It is when you start 8 nationals when only 4 are capable of starting. Name me a CFL team that has 8 (or even 7) NIs that are legitimate starters...

I keep seeing Arceneaux straight-arming Washington and throwing him to the turf like a limp ragdoll.While embarrassing to witness, I still loved it because Washington sucks. What? Washington has been one our best defenders, plus one our best kick returners, what games have you been watching? you might be over valuing him here... good player? Sure... but if I had to list our best defenders he would be behind (in no particular order) Westerman, Bass, Wild, Leggett, Adams, Randle, and Johnson...
-
what I'm hoping to see in our D next year... Westerman - Imp DT - NI DT (with Thomas getting some reps) - actual pass rusher Leggett - Bass - Wild Randle - Washington/someone new - Waggoner - Johnson - Adams
-
You want Randle to replace J. Adams? After he had 6 int's last year? There's 2 corners on the field...

If the Chris Jones era mean lots of wins... no one cares how ruthlessly or "classless" you operate... -

Sour grapes from losing the Grey Cup? -
I's love to see us add 2 DPs (1 sixth man, 1 developmental) and one FA on o-line... make the starting line-up look something like: Bryant - FA/DP - Goossen - Chungh - Daniels Though Neufeld is a fairly valuable 6th man... due to versatility...
-
I don't know enough about these prospects to name specific players... but I would like to see Bombers go DL and OL with the first two picks.... assuming it's not too much of a reach from BPA...
-
Are you referring to Harris Andrews? What would be the reverse of a RB... LB?
-
Chris Jones to Saskatchewan Roughriders confirmed
bearpants replied to blueandgoldguy's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I'm curious if you know, or anyone else for that matter, how much Huff, Murphy, Petrie were making last season together? No one knows or probably even cared to ask until the riders made this move. For some reason it seems more like a big deal because its the Riders. I get it, its a bomber fan site, but still the question stands. Kinda missed the point... it's not a matter of how much they are paying that irks some people... it's how they did it... by throwing cash at people already under contract... don't kid yourself into thinking Jones would have gone to Sask if not for the massive pay raise... Just for the record... I'm not mad at the Riders for doing that ... I just wished the Bombers had instead! -
See I see it as he's the GM in waiting, they just want to let someone else do the rebuilding before they give him the keys to the team. Promoting someone who is not ready... I hear that's a good way to go about....

So does that mean Dickenson will remain as the OC?
