“However, when you’ve got guys like we have in the locker room and the understanding that we have, I love that we’re having that conversation now. “It’s human nature to not really push yourself to the brink, to the limit,” said Muamba. He’s specifically asked Harris why it worked in Winnipeg in terms of their repeat, while asking other players and coaches who have won a title why their team didn’t go back-to-back. “It’s a question I’ve been asking a lot of the guys in the locker room that have done it, starting with Andrew.” “I’m a student of life, I’m a student of the game,” Muamba told Argonauts.ca. He spoke to several players about that potential self-satisfaction creeping in, including Harris. The veteran linebacker finally won his first Grey Cup last season, so this is uncharted water for him. Someone who has talked about the potential of complacency creeping in is Henoc Muamba. Now it’s just about rallying around those guys and making everything seamless. We’re missing a couple of big pieces but the guys that are coming in are hungry and they’re very capable. “We’ve got the majority of the nucleus back from last year. Harris is comfortable with the position the Argos are in going forward.

But there are positives you can take from what we did last year and just try to improve on those things.” “We can’t dwell on what we’ve done in the past it’s all about what we’re doing in the future. “Last year’s dead, last year’s over,” he told Argonauts.ca. His advice on how to eliminate complacency is simple. Running back Andrew Harris signed with the Double Blue in 2022 after winning two straight Cups with the Blue Bombers. Winning the Grey Cup in back-to-back years isn’t done by a lot of people, though the Argos have someone on their roster who has done it in each of the last three seasons. I’ve been telling all of those guys through the whole off-season, let’s forget about the Grey Cup, that’s in the past, we can’t be looking in the rear-view mirror.”

“That’s what you’re always worried about after a championship, guys let down and forget what it takes to get there.

“No question,” Ryan Dinwiddie said to reporters after practice. The team is the defending Grey Cup champion, something the head coach is hoping doesn’t make the team even a little complacent. This year there’s a bit of a different vibe and not just because of the team’s new bright blue helmets. Sunday marked the first full day of training camp, and once again the team will work out of the spectacular facilities at the University of Guelph. Complacency: A feeling of calm satisfaction with your own abilities or situation that prevents you from trying harder.Ĭomplacency is a word the Toronto Argonauts have acknowledged but are working hard to keep out of the locker room.
