Quote from: Cool Spot on October 08, 2026, 03:58:34 PMUnless the Bombers fix their Offensive Line woes, it won't matter which QB they poach - they won't be able to provide the required 3 seconds of protection, and any of these QB's performance would dropoff unless they had a super-quick release (on every play?) or were extremely scrambly (which increases their chances of injury).

Remember Michael Reilly with the Lions?

I think Alexander or Rourke would instantly make our O-line look better. But they will not be available. So I agree that beefing up the O-line as much as possible is the way to go. Having more high draft picks would have helped start the process, unfortunately.

Quote from: Tecno on October 07, 2026, 05:51:53 AMAgreed.  Especially since we may not have any choice but to stick with Dru (or Zach -- but same problem).  Unless we get a mobile QB, we need to get back to the days of having the best OL.  Then take a page out of SSK's 2025 playbook and understand we can skimp at REC -- both $ and ratio.  I think SSK's woes this season are partly caused by a worsening of their OL.  That short-only no-mobility scheme only works with the best OL.


I thought Sask's O-line has been fine. They lost Meyers to the NFL, all their other best receivers have been out with injuries, Thor has been injured, and Harris is a year older.

Quote from: Waffler on October 08, 2026, 12:14:12 AMKelly has been clean two years. I used to hate him also but I really like winning and really Rourke, Alexander and Kelly are going to be the ones winning cups for the next few years. With Kelly being available you have to find a way.

Help us Obi-wan, you're our only hope.

1. 2 types, Canadian, Non-Canadian
2. Min 10 Canadian's per team
3. Min 5 starters

= Better football, shorter careers, equally hard GM job

It would be a start.
