Agreed, but someone is going to be optimistic/deluded enough to think he can make it work in spite of Hervey and take the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are suggesting he will stay in Winnipeg over going to BC as a HC....I don't think so. J5V and Tracker 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone will always take the job though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That roster is in rough in large part to that insane contract he's got. He's one of the best QBs in the league but he needs a supporting cast to succeed. It's going to be a tall order for whoever takes on the HC job in BC in 2020. Geebrr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with that. But it's better to go on a team with a established QB than a team that is without. If you're an aspiring HC and have to pick between between BC and Ott (the 2 current vacancies) what will you choose? Edited November 13, 2019 by M.O.A.B.

Ottawa who will be taking a legit shot at Nichols, Masoli or Arbuckle??? not that simple of a choice - especially with Hervey in BC Lots of intangibles that us fans don't know about too...maybe not a slam dunk decision. why was BC such a mess?

Ask Campbell, Harris, Ellingson. Also, I read that one of the reason for BC's mess is Claybrooks, that's why he's now gone. Edited November 13, 2019 by M.O.A.B.

Agreed. That beating that Reilly has taken for the past couple of years has to have a cumulative effect and he ain't getting any younger, either. Hervey is not going to be able to upgrade the BC o-line immediately, so Reilly is probably going to get second and third helpings of what he got this year and last.

How so? It's purely a coincidence. The Eskimos had a better record in 2018 (9-9) than they did this past season (8-10). The Lions simply won the season series last season despite also posting a 9-9 record, and thus won the crossover berth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Zipp Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Edmonton with MR in 2018 - missed playoffs BC without MR in 2018 - made playoffs Edmonton without MR in 2019 - made the playoffs BC with MR in 2019 - missed the playoffs small trend in play...could mean something..could not. What it could mean is that MR on your team doesn't guarantee a playoff berth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
