The bar is so high that a 2 point night for McDavid is considering shutting him down. Do you hear yourself? I mean yeah he didn't get 4 points and win the game all by his lonesome like last time these teams played but to suggest that they shut down a guy and he still picked up 2 points and rang the bar in OT and may well have won the game there is shut down.... get over yourselves. You know what stops me from really getting behind the Jets? The fact that Jets fans act like Rider fans.

Or someone missed a joke

Misjudged or dogged it, the bottom line is the receiver ****** that one up more than the qb. It wasn't a super windy day, to me Adam's let up. Yeah he was running, but not hard.

Because by the time Adam's stopped running the ball was already thrown. He keeps going to the endzone like the route is supposed to do he let up.

Well I for one always like Russell everywhere he has been. Dude gets **** on way too much because of fancy stats but he is a good defenseman and has been playing good this season. Also, McDavid had two points last night and as you said, post in OT so really shut him down huh? It was a 5-4 game, wouldn't call it a defensive clinic by anyone just a high scoring game that went to OT. Might as well just accept that the Oilers aren't as bad as they looked under Mclellan.

The 2001 defense was pretty damned good. I dunno where it ranks all time but they were ******* good and Juran Bolden was a massive part of that. Don't sell Cameron short just cause Jon Ryan kicked the ball into the movie theatre across the street. Cameron could drop the ball just where he wanted it. It'd like saying Michael Bishop was a better qb than Khari Jones because Bishop had an arm like no other. Now I dunno where Bolden compares to other all time DBs cause there's a lot that I just don't remember well enough, but the guy was never bad here.

Harris busted his ass trying to get that pass. Trust me, I was sitting in the stands for both plays. Harris damn near tracked that ball down, Adams stopped running well before the ball was anywhere close to him. Massive difference. Had a great view of both plays. Nichols throws the ball and Adams stops running and then realized he ****** up and tried to catch up but was too late. Harris is open and sees the ball going too far and tries hard to get there but can't quite make it. That's the difference. Adams was wide open cause no one went to cover him and thought he could just stand there for an easy TD, Nichols expected him to keep taking his route to the endzone.

I didn't see the game cause I was out, but my understanding is Talbot was good in the third but awful on the OT goal. Which makes sense, Talbot is still pretty shaky mentally after what happened last season and given that Nurse and Larsson had to play massive minutes in Colorado with Klefbom and Russell going out early and again played big minutes last night cause your depth is trashed it makes sense that they saw a 3rd period dip in performance. And I wouldn't laugh about the presence of Koskinen either. Guy has ridiculous numbers right now, he's been a brick wall for the Oilers while Talbot still can't make a glove save to save his life. Going to OT against Winnipeg considering Klefbom and Russell out and Talbot starting is probably the best they could have hoped for. Hard to lose the two D who have been playing the best for you on the season.

I heard it described best this way: the MAGA types would happily let Trump **** in their mouths if a liberal had to smell it.

Yeah Adams totally dogged it on that route that Nichols over threw him. He keeps running it's a touchdown but instead he stopped moving and it was over his head.

The best thing to come of all of this might be for the public to wise up to all the **** rich people get away with and maybe we can see some crack down on white collar crime... who am I kidding, the Democrats are beholden to rich people who paid for them too.

Just because he lifted a tent in your pants doesn't mean he lifted the team as much as you think he did. Nichols is still a better qb than Streveler and the results show that. Yes Streveler did well for a rookie and showed a lot of potential, but he's still young and has to keep progressing. I think he will personally but you just never know.

The only team that has won more games than Winnipeg since Nichols took over is Calgary so I don't know what your point is.... They're already a power in the league and people already acknowledge that.

Says quarterbacking is the most key thing yet the best qb performance in the CFL last year was from Reilly and he missed the playoffs. Yes quarterbacking is important, but having a good qb isn't the only thing you need.

His record as starter doesn't show that...

league has a lot more parity than people want to admit right now. No easy nights anywhere.

interesting strategy... not sure how good that'll be but we shall see.

Shake and bake!

Trump has done enough already to justify impeachment, no idea why the repubs protect him so much.

I've got a much uglier word for it, misappropriation.

Except it's not a jalopy and it's not crapping out, I mean christ, they lost the west final to the eventual winners in a much closer game than the cup game wound up being. How is that a jalopy crapping out? Stand up and pull your head out of your ass. Please.

Stability wins in the long run. We got a team that is now pretty deep in a lot of areas, good coaching and a Canadian situation that is arguably the best in the league. These guys have lots of time in my books cause you keep having teams like that you'll win the Cup eventually. Fans put way way too much emphasis on 1990. Yeah it sucks, but just enjoy the ride.

I am thinking that with his popularity dropping and him looking more and more guilty that the GOP will soon stop seeing him as a useful idiot and as a liability and will sell him down the river to save their own asses. They keep at the Trump thing leading into 2020 they'll probably get their asses handed to them and that's the one thing they can't stand.
