FTR: It wasn't me.

So, the headline "Entitled One Versus Embattled One". Looked & saw Paul Wiecek wrote it.  He always has to write a smart alecky, negative column. Never read it.

The Source is predicting Adarius Bowman will have over 200 yards receiving today.

Some of the threads here lately....,. remind me that losing....... brings out a lot of different and interesting coping mechanisms.   Fortunately, gin keeps it simple, for me.....

Tonight is feeling like a spiced rum night. 

I was hoping we would come out with Flanders still on the active roster and ready to run the ball into the cold weather. 

Instead, we’ll bank on a Dressler single handily fixing our O.

He'll sure help.

Nothing like a dose of the Als to quell the fever. The lunacy & the madness.

Or if we lose, go full riderfans. Mind you, there are a few posters here who have gone full deadhorsebeating riderfans already.

I was teetering that way but I pulled myself back from the edge of the precipice this past week.  I may do a full swan dive though if we lose. Let's hope not.

If things do not go well for the Big Blue, you may need to set up a large-bore IV for your libations.

Pretty sure he was well over 300 yards in the playoff loss to Edmonton last season....  With 3 TD's, I think.

Weeks 2..6..7...9..11..and 14 threw for over 300...as well as in playoffs with 4 games in high 200' s sprinkled in there...and was winning

He's obvious not at 100 percent and it affecting his game..I say kudos for toughing it out to be honest

Brutal sack taken by Nichols on opening drive forces Medlock to kick from 51.  Just can't happen.  Get out of the pocket and get rid of the ball.

Went down so easy

Nice drive with the kind of plays that have been working all year. 

Bowman (the receiver) is awful.

Time out Montreal. Lol yeah 3 seconds after the clock expired

Wow, are things quiet in here tonight.... zzzzz
