Game 72 : The Neverending Winter Story
Debbie Downer here. They’re past the point of no return. Worst scenario is they’ll finish just outside of the playoffs negating a high draft pick and continue the illusion of not needing a significant re-tool, just need some slight tweaks. Or as I lower my debbie downer glasses and go all in they surge into the playoffs and win it all. :)

Game 72 : The Neverending Winter Story
Does it really do the franchise any good to make playoffs this year and miss out on a decent draft pick? This isn't exactly a cup contender even if they do manage to squeak in...

O know for a fact a lot of players refuse to come here due to ratio reasons and getting cut for a sub par guy....and a lot of coaches will favour a vet...even if he is not as good....why waste their time and risk injury....and guys talk and touch base and give potential newguys the 411 of what its all about up in Canada...I could give an eff....if u believe my "spin" or not...but you be you....with your wealth of football knowledge and connections...I'll be me...Block me...mute me...whatever floats your dingy if u dislike what i say and save for a QB who has a steep learning curve up here....unless a player is a comp0lete dolt....and has skill....they can adapt and play if the coaching is adequate..and it's not like he stunk the joint out when he was here....we kept other stinkers tho wasnt good for yrs ago ...but hung onto an NFL PR and actual active roster for 3 yrs after...I guess the light came on after being dumped by the CFL...good on him I guess That's the pitfalls of the CFL and how teams run camps and pre-season...with 2 games now...Guys dont get legit opportunities...on all teams...and some pop off luckily in camp and jump over better players...then are just farts in the wind come next TC....I dont know why we dont extend camp and have 3 games.... and another pityfull coaching staff worse than the warts we had here...lol But 3 yrs in NFL...On same team....actual roster spot....and lotsa snaps on ST too...hard to argue that he was a piece of crap and not worthy of keeping...who did we keep that yr in lieu of him...some stars I am sure are still here...or had a couple great seasons and then vanished...I know we had Schoen that yr....but dont recall who we kept as depth after that...When Ellingson went down and Schoen stepped into his spot...who did we add to roster....nobody I can think of who still here

Game 72 : The Neverending Winter Story
Blackhawks Stars Blue Jackets Kraken - so we do. Blues Philly Vegas Mammoth Sharks. Tough schedule. I see 5 or 6 wins tho. Perhaps hawks kraken blues Vegas Philly and even sharks in final game. Maybe we could beat Dallas Columbus and Utah also. It’s possible. We just basically beat the best team in the league 2 out of 3 times so who knows. If they play like they did against the Avs, it’s very possible but Nashville and LA needs to lose. 18 possible points left = 92 points. I dunno. Most years it’s not enough but the west is kinda weak this year. 3 points out currently. 4 points away from 10th in the west in the wildcard standings and top 5 pick. Crazy. St. Louis has won 4 in a row and are 1 point behind us now. The teams in front are all L1 streaks. Nashville is L2. Teams behind us are w1 w4 w1. It’s just crazy.

Game 72 : The Neverending Winter Story
They need to win 2 more games than wildcard 2 really. What we want is clean losses for teams in front of us. We can win in OT against anyone but those teams we chasing for WC2, if we play them again needs to be 2 in regulation. Don’t think we play Nashville or LA or Seattle again tho.

Game 73 : @The Mountain Between Us
Let’s just say, I don’t think Colorado wants the Jets to make it. Cuz that’s looking like round 1 if they do. Colorado tried quite hard, jets were better team in 8 of 9 periods against the Avs. 3rd cost them in the peg. Pretty sure Colorado hoping for anyone but Helle and the smothering Jets D when they want to be. Salo Morrissey please. Thanks. Demelo should be the 3rd pair vet playing with Bryson fleury or heinola.

That's not a guarantee though that he will also be good at the Canadian game. Many good NFL players have come and gone in the CFL that did not make it. That's just you're spin to it. No factual basis whatsoever.

We've talked Vaccaro but anybody have any insights about two other Manitobans who are at the combine, Trae Tomlinson and Nathan Carabataskis?

Or Jackson wasn’t good 4 ******* years ago when he was here? I mean sometimes it’s that simple. The fact most ppl prob don’t remember the name means he didn’t stand out. 4 years later.

They can lose 2 games apparently. But rough schedule prob means not gonna make it.

Good enough to hang around 3 yrs in NFL...so can't answer for other teams...but if a guy can cut it there...get several actual games in...and play st...pretty sure he should have here looking at some of the crap we rostered since...and maybe he didnt wanna come here and get cut in lieu of some lesser talented Canadian or some coaches pet...as thats also very common for a lot of guys not coming

If he's that good, why the other CFL teams did not sign him?

Rourke also played prep ball before College too...Elgersma again did not....He heeds pro experience whether it 3 down...4 down....Trying to find random workouts...with zero pay for going there and out of pocket expense is just an exercise in stupidity now....His window was last yr...and nobody took the risk....and it wont get any better in terms of opportunity until he gets some solid pro film....and it wont be in the NFL and even the crappy UFL he behind the 8 ball there too....If he shows he good enough up in Canada....this "lack of 4 down" experience is moot....If he has it in the brain department, and has elite skills...he'll figure it out...Maybe the knock on him down south is looks the part...good arm....just doesnt have it upstairs to process what's going on...and I believe this is the case and they just were nice in saying he "lacked 4 down experience"....cause that lil tidbit is almost kinda funny in my opinion, and based on experience working with athletes...Of u got it...u got it...and NFL talent evaluators will see it...and get it outta ya....He has had success at CIS level...Like i said before...big effin deal....he may not even be able to translate that and process it at the CFL level to even be a fraction of what Rourke is His representation is doing him no favours and wasting a ton of valuable time....and even if he sucks it up and accepts the reality and gets up here...I dont see a quick path for him to being a starter here either for a few yrs...of at all.....But he has the potential to be that....but he also has to be here to realize it....and if he has a yr like Rourke was having before he got hurt...he will get some more feelers....until that happens....not a chance 2 yrs into no pay....and no real experience/development/game film.....he's just flat out winning lol

Elgersma barely being ahead of a QB who spent the better part of 2 years on the Riders practice squad doesn't inspire a tonne of confidence tbh
