  1. Should have signed in Winnipeg - he could have been on the nine game by week 5!  At any rate, saw this coming, and it's too bad.  Kid was having a heck of a good season on a craptacular team.  I never saw this game so didn't see what happened, I'll watch the replay on TSN broadband.

    Eskimos quarterback Reilly out indefinitely with concussion

     

    The Edmonton Eskimos say quarterback Mike Reilly is out indefinitely with a concussion, and dispute suggestions they should have pulled him from the game after he took the vicious blow to the back of his head.

    Team general manager Ed Hervey says staff will monitor Reilly’s progress and then make a determination when — or if — he comes back this season.

    People forget that last year was still the Lapo offence and not the new and improved Crowton offence of this year.

    No entirely true, Crowton put more and more of his stuff in as the year went on last year. All those improvements were credited to him putting his stuff in. The new and improved stuff for this year was done for one reason, to try and prevent Pierce from getting crippled, but PIerce can't play that way so they scrambled to try and change it... and PIerce got hurt. The real ironic part is that a quick release offence is actually something that would benefit Elliott more than Pierce. Just a giant **** up in thought process from the get go. 

     

     

    This is me every time you bring up Elliott....

    it sucks when your team is in a place where the outcome of a particular game means less than looking ahead to next season's roster (trust me, i've been there a few times) but i view this interregnum period with Miller at the helm as a big positive for the Bombers and the potential is there for a 1 year turnaround.. 

     

    Yeah bluto this season for the WBB reminds me a lot of the Andrus year the Argos had to endure.  Same kind of situation, no QB, a coach who just looked lost all year, only hope is for next year when the team can clear the decks, bring in some better coaching talent and rebuild.

    The absolute funniest part to me, is that the GM we fired was rumoured to be close to acquiring Collaros and now everyone is simultaneously jumping on the "we must get Collaros" bandwagon all the while still continually crapping on that GM nonstop. 

     

    The funniest part to me is that he once again failed to get the QB he was after.  Coffee is for closers, and Mack didn't close when it really mattered.  Joe Mack is the Shelley Levene of general managers....

    that's so perfect a description that i'd swear i'd heard that same sentiment being expressed 2 years ago...

     

     

    What???  I thought I had thought of it all myself.... :D

  5. Garrett didn't really impress me much yesterday.  He went the wrong way a few times and didn't look like he knew what he was doing.  I also don't think he survived contact with the ground on that TD and TSN didn't seem to have the balls to show the replay from any angle that would have proved it.
