He is awesome, but this doesn't include some of the amazing tosses that weren't touchdowns. There should be a Collaros greatest hits of 2022.
GO BLUE BOMBERS GO !
COOL BEANS !

That TD by Rasheed Bailey against Saskatchewan was the play of the year although McRae's Td against the Stamps was pretty good too.

Great video! Thanks so much.

How Zach isn't playing in the NFL is a mystery to me. He's the Tom Brady of the CFL.
Go Bombers!

I think RB88 is going to have a big game on Sunday.

My money is on Woli. he has better chemistry with Collaros and makes himself an available target whenever Zach  scrambles to his right.  With all starting receivers available I think Bailey falls back to the #5 target, but he should be good for a couple of sweeps.

As stated on here Bailey is on the injured list now.

I don't think Bailey has ever been our #5 receiver...

I realized a few TD's into this amazing video that this was a highlight reel of all Collaros TD tosses on the year.

I have to point out a few observations here:

1. Its' simply amazing what Collaros can do rolling out to the right but even more impressive when he rolls out to the left and quickly snaps his hips around to get the ball out.

2. Some say you can't truly see what an awesome o-line or specific offensive lineman does for you. Well its very simple to focus on a specific player by pause, rewind, repeat and watch over again.
Stanley Bryant is the greatest LT in CFL history (he has already won the most MOOL awards in league history and nominated for a 4th). I rewatched a lot of these TD's in this video to put my focus on Bryant.
He consistently did enough on every play to allow time for Collaros to get the ball out cleanly. There was aprox 5 pancake blocks (a block where you take your man to the ground and out of the play). aprox 3-4 times where after taking on his blocking assignment moved on to help his LG Geoff Gray. What i found funny was at least 3 times there was no pressure at all so, if you he had no one to block was able to stand around and watch.

3. The various different blocking schemes the Bombers come up with make the entire league see the true and full potential of Zach Collaros.
I only realized watching this video that the Bombers have changed up one of their tendencies of the past. Typically with Lapo or last year with Buck, if the Bombers had 6 or 7 guys lined up on the OL there was a 98% chance they were going to run. Now it looks like they are more of a 70% chance they may run. They might throw in 1-2 extra OL or motion in a FB and RB to take pressure off the edges. Sometimes its a WR and RB but whatever they come up with is extremely effective against opposing defences and truly has me thinking....

this is the year our offence is fully responsible to win us the Grey Cup!

(disclaimer: I'm extremely excited for a different defensive look for these playoff games)

Best QB in the league at moving the pocket and most effective throwing on the run.

Stanley Bryant is in a league of his own. He's that good.

This offence is the best fair weather offence in the league. Now we get to see if it's the best cold weather offence too. I look for Brady Olivera to have a big game.
Go Bombers!

Great post.  I do that too.  Sometimes rewatch entire games focussing on just 1 player or 1 unit.  It's much easier and more flexible to do on my computer PVR vs junky-interface Shaw PVR.  I've never done it focussing on Big Stan, but now that you mention it, I might have to!

Except you still don't know what their assignment was - or what the assignment was for the guys next to them that they may be trying to cover for....
