I want to see BC at IG Field on december 5th

They would be lucky to make the playoffs at this point. They have lost their season series with SSK,  are trailing the Elks 1-0. Their matchup against CAL is huge though ...as that series is tied 1-1, though CAL blew them out in the 2nd game 39-10.

Interestingly enough though, with 4 games left, they still control their own destiny and will make the playoffs if they go 4-0 down the stretch.

That said, they are in tough, they have games in TOR and HAM, with their final two home games being against CAL and EDM respectively.

BC needs a complete 180 in the way they are playing. It has been getting progressively worse since we started them on their losing streak. They look like a team that has given up.

Reilly is done. He should be released in the offseason, imo

They certainly can't pay him at this current rate AND field a competitive team by the looks of it. Reilly does look like a shell of his former self though. He has taken an absolute beating in his two years in BC. However, behind a solid OL he could still be a productive QB.

I am not saying I think they'll do it, I am just saying that, mathematically speaking, they are still very much so on the running.

Reilly isn't done.... he's just playing on a team with zero defense and zero run game.   Physically the guy still can get it done.   

BLM is done... he has talent and protection but just cannot make the same throws that he used to.

Yeah put Reilly on basically any other team...or at the very least a team that has an OC that remembers they're allowed to run the ball and he does just fine.

I'm not burying BLM yet... although he may be done in Calgary... let's all remember Collaros was also "done" in 2019 and in 2021 he's the league MOP...

True...but ZC and BLM being done are not really the same. Zac was all about injuries....and like it or not until he finishes this year he has not had a season without significant time loss to injuries in many years. However, he did play well when he was healthy. BLM is about being as healthy as he ever is going to be again but he can't get it done anymore. His shoulder is pudding and his throws are erratic.  He is still a decent QB, but he is no longer a top QB in this league.

Unless his arm recovers over the off season he's done.   He has had time in the pocket and wide open receivers... he's stepped up the make the throw and the result more times then not is a lame duck.   It's not as bad as Khari when he was done but almost at that point.

Reilly  TD - 10   Int - 4 

BLM  TD -   7    Int  - 13

and to further underscore those stats... stumps have a much better Oline, playcaller and supporting cast.

Yeah Reilly still has plenty of game left in him, but no run game and a poor ol is just getting him killed. No qb would succeed in that situation. 

Bo Levi Mitchell though... his arm looks shot. He is lifting soft balls deep which are easy pickings for dbs. He needs to figure out the problem and if there is a solution otherwise he isn't a huge threat.

I wonder what happens in the off season with  Reilly and the lions. If he stays they need wholesale changes to support him. I don't know if they have the ability to build the line and running game they need for him in one off season.

All NHL games have several minutes of fluff before the game actually starts, so arriving 10 minutes late is no big deal.

I was thinking the same thing.  You want to add a half hour to the pre-game on Sportsnet?  Ask the Toronto-biased media covering the game to name 5 players on the Jets, including their FIRST names (so no, you can't call him "Mark Wheeler").  That should buy all the time that you need.

He looks sour all the time. No fun in his eyes.

Fun kind of leaves a QB eyes when you don't have enough time to even complete your drop back. lol
