I dont see how we can make up those 3 points... I just dont.. Even if we win out.. Calgary would have to lose 2 probably 3 of their final 5. Dont see that happening. And i dont see us winning out either. Calgary has 1st. We look like we got 2nd. Sask probably comes here to play altho really... Theres some separation now between Calgary us and the rest now Both teams can’t win out, they play each other once. So if we win out and Calgary wins all but the game against us, then they get first by one point. So what we need is for one team to beat Calgary, and for us to win all our games. I think that team will be Sask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I'm not su Just now, Blueandgold said: We have arguably the two best players in the CFL this year with Matt Nichols and Andrew Harris. That can’t be discounted. I'm not sure that will be enough. To me, the offense looks like it is short one receiver of the ability Dressler had last year, and our linebacking is sub-par, although Santos-Knox has played well in the past game or two. Its difficult to pick out a weakness in Calgary's lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that a tenured position at a sewage effluent plant would be a better fit and not much of a change from his current position and personality.

They took a few stupid penalties.. But yes they don't typically turn the ball over a lot, they're defense is really good , ST's on par with us and can't count out Bo or Messam.. Just a really well balanced team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark F Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) our backup qb went in, threw a forty yard reception. looked confident to me. quite possible we have the best 1/2 qb in the league. Nichols playing better than reilly. bo not that good. R.Ray, then nothing. B.C, has mr throw it up for grabs. etc. just a few plays, but something else to be positive aboot.

kelownabomberfan Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) I wouldn't mind seeing what happened to Winnipeg in 1992 and 2007 happen to Calgary this year, and Bo Levi go down near the end of the season and Calgary having to play a green-horn QB. Even with a great team, losing your starter for a Sammy Garza/Ryan Dinwiddie/Andrew Buckley is pretty insurmountable. About time this happened to Calgary instead of us.

Nickthesizz Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 You have to say CGY right now, they're the class of the league. However in a one game winner take all I don't mind our chances (see the grey cup last year). SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he had a great pass to Harris that just got dropped that woulda made his limited reps look really impressive, but I think it's more a case of a lot of sad sack qb situations around the league right now due to injuries and what not.

Atomic Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Glenn/Bridge looks pretty impressive right now. Reilly/Franklin is obviously a good combo as well. Andrew Buckley is still unproven but I wouldn't write him off. He has played well when given a chance including going 10/10 in a pre-season game. With BLM that is a good combo. With Lulay going down, we have no idea what is behind Jennings. Hamilton and Montreal's situations need not be considered. In Toronto, Fajardo has a ways to go but I still believe in his potential. Ottawa has been decimated so their 1/2 is a complete unknown right now. I'd probably rank the QB situations like this at the moment: EDM SSK CGY/WPG TOR BC HAM MTL OTT And that's not intended to be a slight on Davis, we just don't know enough about him yet to say definitively.

Noeller Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Glenn/Bridge? **** off.......I would take Fever and Davis over those two!! Never mind the best QB in the league right now, in Nichols! SPuDS and Mark F 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Kevin Glenn was pretty **** his last 2 outing so get that out of there. What's Edmonton done of note lately? I know people are just conditioned to be skeptical that Winnipeg has even one good qb, but we have a good situation right now.

Never mind the best QB in the league right now, in Nichols! Sorry but that is big-time blue-coloured glasses. Nichols is definitely near or at the top of the list for starters but Davis and LeFevour have done nothing noteworthy. Bridge has played well and Glenn is right up there with Nichols as a starter this season. 4 minutes ago, 17to85 said: Kevin Glenn was pretty **** his last 2 outing so get that out of there. What's Edmonton done of note lately? Maybe if we were only looking at the last 2 games but we're not. Nichols was **** against Calgary too. Head-to-head is the best indicator and Nichols and Glenn have been about equal, with Nichols obviously getting 2 wins to Glenn's 1.... so I give the edge to Nichols but as a backup Davis has proven nothing while Bridge has a win under his belt and some pretty good numbers as well. Any other opinion is just homerism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn is middle of the road no matter what his stats this season say as a starter. I get hes having a borderline career year but he is still Kevin Glenn.

Noeller Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Glenn's been nearly awful since he buggered his hand, and I don't trust Bridge to be more than a glorified running back. Putting their QB situation ahead of Winnipeg is laughable... SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
