JuranBoldenRules Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Edmonton just can't do anything consistently well on either side of the ball, other than making the odd miracle catch on those 80-20 balls Reilly chucks up a dozen times a game.
Doublezero Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Lions defence just crushing the Esks. Posey and Sutton big additions for BC. That team looks scary good. Maas likely done as HC in Edmonton.
JuranBoldenRules Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Reilly has always been a little over reliant on the deep ball, but he's ceased being a quarterback this season. They don't hit anything between a deep ball and a screen pass.

Super Duper Negatron Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) What the hell kind of moneyball horsepoop call was that? Maas has lost his mind. Edited October 20, 2018 by Super Duper Negatron SPuDS 1

Well, I guess the logic would be that when time is at a premium, Mike Rielly's arm has longer range than their kicker foot. That said, I agree that's still just a stupid decision...
Floyd Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Really hope that salary cap is the reason we didn't try to sign Posey...
Tracker Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Watched the game this morning on PVR. When Lulay is healthy and on his game, he has to be considered one of the top two or at worst, three QBs in the league. Wally just out-coached Maas, particularly in the second when it counted, so he hasn't lost all his marbles to old-timers' disease yet. Maas doesn't have much job security left. Bombers may not have been able to sign Posey for one reason or another, but Lordy, he would have good in blue and gold. Sutton was a great pickup for the Lions.

Too many people gave up on Lulay way too premature. Yes he has health issues but I've always respected his play. His football IQ is extremely high, too bad it was never used in a Blue and Gold uniform.
rebusrankin Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 I hope we just win on Friday so the last game is a meh. Would be better for my heart and nerves. Fred C Dobbs, HardCoreBlue, Tracker and 1 other 4
17to85 Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Lulay has always been a damned good quarterback, just keeps busting his shoulder. Bottom line just beat Calgary next week and it's all good. rebusrankin and SPuDS 2
Floyd Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 With this playoff mess and Calgary suddenly looking beatable - I've definitely watched more games than I have in a long time.... really fun season
BBlink Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Yeah right now Lulay scares the heck out of me. Sending them to the crossover would help

Because of the game we lost in the last minutes there... Sounds good to me...!! Edit - ah point differential... damn, we're in the playoffs for sure then!! Edited October 20, 2018 by Floyd
Tehedra Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 We aren't for sure, we need one more win to secure playoffs otherwise we are out. Edmonton has the season series with us and will go to the play offs if we end up tied.
USABomberfan Posted October 20, 2018 Author Report Posted October 20, 2018 15 hours ago, Eternal optimist said: Nope in mathematical terms of strictly making the playoffs, we actually want Edmonton to win. Edmonton win | BC Win EDM: 9-8 (17 GP) | BC 9-7 BC: 8-8 (16 GP) | EDM: 8-9 With an Edmonton win, BC would need to win out (10-8) and we would need to lose out (9-9) for them to catch us because we hold the tiebreaker over BC. If BC wins, they would need to win one more game than Winnipeg to finish better than us. The extra loss to Edmonton doesn't hurt them as much since the EDM/WPG season series is still up in the air. Also a tie is no good for us either, since the extra point would actually be relevant if we ended up with the same wins as either team. TLDR; Winnipeg needs one more win to get in, if you're going to root for anyone tomorrow, root for Edmonton. I'll take the we're in with a win scenario every time.
Mr Dee Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 The Eskimos and Bombers are tied at 1 game won each. They do not have the season series on us. The last game of the year is against the Eskimos. It could be a VERY big game or a game to rest some players if we beat Calgary. Win 1 and we’re in. Win 2 and we could be in second place. What a season..

Stickem Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Deadmonton is hooped IF we win the next game at home....They most likely won't show up for the last one UNLESS Maas wants to go out in a blaze of glory in a meaningless tilt...The way it sounds over there right now, is that he may have coached his last game at the igloo....so there's that Edited October 20, 2018 by Stickem
Tracker Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 Esks and Riders both look like steaming messes right now. Riders have a good defence (or they used to before their injuries) and the Esks used to have a good offence. Neither look to have a chance against either RBs or TiCats. A pox on both their houses.
Booch Posted October 20, 2018 Report Posted October 20, 2018 If Calgary wins today..they wrap up first..so may be resting some guys and not playing as urgently...tho we are playing good..healthy..and think we will win at home anyway. BC has a lot to play for as well next week and I am sure dont want to be a crossover team with the distance and all..u actually see a Winnipeg winning out and Sask losing out and a WSF here against Bc
