Just your friendly week #15 reminder Jarious thought Fajardo was good for nothing more then QB sneaks and Hervey didn’t see beyond that either.

If Jarious fricken Jackson isn't fricken fired after the last whistle of the fricken season I will lose my Sh*t.

He is beyond hopeless. He is stunned.

Claybrooks carries Kraemer off the field. That's kind of nice.

As Suitor says, he came to camp as an unknown, just like Reilly. Had a good preseason game, just like Reilly. Went on the practice roster just like Reilly. And finally got his chance, just like Reilly.

But there the similarities ended. Just like a hundred other young qbs coming up.

O'Brien looks okay.

What? O'Brien does not look OK He looks like every grunt QB that's ever played in this league. Let him coach, but get him off the field.

As a third rate back up, he was okay. I agree that retirement would be best, but there is still another chance to shine against Calgary.

Not sure you can hang it on the QBs. Direct the anger to the coaches and Mike Reilly who won't ever let a back up play. It's one thing to know the offence as Danny O does. It's another to run it in a game. Thought they should have in the first half given the back up short yardage even though O'Brien does it - just to give the backup some play and not bang up O'Brien who 's not used to the hitting.

IF the OC had any sort of innovative run packages this would have been the game to get it out there.

Team's moving in the right direction but looking at Sol E - clear DEF leader on that other team - and Fajardo makes you wonder where Hervey's brain was at.

How the f..k can Burnham's catch being taken away in the end zone FFS.. That is BS.. bogus and poor decision. Best catch of the year.

I thought there were a lot of calls/non-calls actually that the refs missed. One fumble from O'Brien I thought had someone hitting or grabbing his helmet ..

For me, Elimimian was the biggest loss in the past two years. Perennial all star, leader on D, and future coach or GM if he chooses.

tough one .. they did battle, but both QBs held on to the ball too long on occasion, but watching the replays some there are no short outlets, all the recievers going deep not looking at the QB. This was our early season O when reilly was getting sacked, Jackson has to go, also continues to run that swing pass to Burnham and carter which has yet to work... at what point do you stop using it, one series late in the I swear saskatchewan knew the play... Didnt feel the play calling when Kraemer went in gave him a chance...
Defence, played well most of the time bu tterrible 3rd Qtr... Sask moved the ball at will..
Really like Cottoy and Shaq... hope they stay,, White and Rutley have een good but not sure why JJ was let go. we won a lot of game when we gave him the rock running and passing... Burnham say nomore!
