Dein erstes Forum » Green Bay also released veteran backup Graham Harrell

On Tuesday, the Ottawa Redblacks introduced Henry Burris as their newest quarterback, joining Thomas DeMarco and Kevin Glenn, who were picked up in the expansion draft. Last week, the Blue Bombers made a substantial multi-year offer to Burris to take over the starters role. In a telling move, the veteran pivot turned down the offer, choosing instead to join the expansion Redblacks, assuming he thinks they offer a better chance at immediate success. Do you agree? Are the Redblacks a better option than the Blue Bombers right now? Last season, the Blue Bombers struggled to a 3-15 season and replaced head coach Tim Burke with Mike OShea, the likeable special teams coordinator from the Toronto Argonauts. Marcel Bellefeuille is back as the offensive coordinator, a position he took over last August. Changes are happening in the Manitoba capital in hopes of turning things around in short order. And in a league the size of the CFL, teams have gone from worst to competitive on many occasions so the Blue Bombers could very well make the playoffs as early as next season. Expansion teams rarely compete for a playoff spot In Ottawa, winning is not expected to come quickly. With a roster made up of players who were left exposed by existing teams in the expansion draft, it will take some time to build a successful organization. Thats what makes this move surprising. At 38 years of age, Burris window to win is small and yet, he decided the Redblacks offered a better opportunity than the Blue Bombers. Secondly, by making the offer to Burris after his release from the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, the Blue Bombers made it clear who their starting quarterback would be in Week 1. There would be competition in training camp but the job would be his to lose. The situation is not so clear cut in the nations capital. Burris will have fellow veteran Glenn, who likely thought he had the inside track on the starters role before Tuesdays move, and De Marco, likely the quarterback of the future, to contend with. While the early nod may go to Burris, the other two candidates bring their own talents to the table and will be gunning for that top job. Many factors go into making the kind of decision Burris made on Tuesday and winning is usually at or near the top of the list for professional athletes. Taking everything into consideration, Burris decided Ottawa was a better fit than Winnipeg. Do you agree? Which team do you think offers the best opportunity to win now: Redblacks or Blue Bombers? As always, its Your! Call.

The 20-year-old overager has appeared in 35 games for the Ontario Hockey Leagues Erie Otters this season, scoring 41 goals and adding 27 assists with a plus-28 rating.Vince Youngs days with the Green Bay Packers are over. Johnny Jollys comeback is apparently complete. The veteran quarterback, vying for a backup job, went on Twitter on Saturday to thank Green Bay for giving him an opportunity and wished the team well this season. Youngs departure would leave just B.J. Coleman on the roster to back up Aaron Rodgers. Young was one of 22 players released Saturday by the team to get down to the 53-man roster limit. "Thanks to (Packers) for the opportunity ... Wonderful fans. Good luck this season," Young posted. Running back Alex Green, who led Green Bay last year with 464 yards on 135 carries, was also cut. DuJuan Harris secured the job down the stretch in 2012, while Eddie Lacy and Johnathan Franklin were selected in the draft to beef up the backfield. Harris was placed on injured reserve recently with a knee injury, leaving questions about the backfield depth chart. The Packers will go into the season with Lacy, Franklin, veteran James Starks and fullback John Kuhn in the backfield.

Jolly had been suspended by the NFL for violating the leagues substance-abuse policy and served about nine months in prison.

He had a sack in the final preseason game Thursday against the Chiefs. Young struggled in that game, going 14 of 30 for 144 yards with two fumbles. That followed a strong showing the previous week against the Seahawks. The Packers signed Young on Aug. 6. Before that, he was out of football for a year after being cut by the Buffalo Bills. Drafted by the Titans, Young has had a checkered career as a starter in Tennessee and as a backup to Michael Vick with the Philadelphia Eagles. Hes been to two Pro Bowls, and has a 74.4 career passer rating. The Packers may still be looking for a veteran backup. Coleman was 2 of 7 for 19 yards against the Chiefs. Green Bay also released veteran backup Graham Harrell earlier in the preseason. Harrell has since signed with the Jets. Elsewhere on offence, the Packers went with Jarrett Boykin and Jeremy Ross to back up the top trio of Randall Cobb, James Jones and Jordy Nelson at wide receiver. Among other cuts by the Packers were fullback Jonathan Amosa; offensive linemen Andrew Datko, Garth Gerhart, Kevin Hughes and Patrick Lewis; defensive backs David Fulton, Loyce Means, James Nixon, Chaz Powell and Brandon Smith; receivers Charles Johnson, Tyrone Walker and Myles White; tight ends Matthew Mulligan, Jake Stoneburner and D.J.
