    GAME THREAD: Edmonton at Saskatchewan Saturday November 4

    Both teams are playing well as the regular season ends, likely leading to a close game. With the Riders playing at home, their famous 13th man fans could be the difference.

    Reilly showed once again why he has been overall the best QB in the league this year in leading the Eskimos to victory.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Edmonton come out of the West and win the Grey Cup. But Ricky Ray and the Argos might have something to say about that. I hope.

    I agree. The Stamps once again appear to have climaxed prematurely shall we say, and the Bombers are a bit too "random" to favour over Edmonton.

    Agreed that Reilly is the best QB in the CFL now; his running ability & toughness are a real plus and he throws a good deep ball and is not afraid to do so.

    Easily better than Mitchell with the Stamps IMO - who i still think is a top notch, smart & poised CFL QB - but over-rated - too often inaccurate on deep throws and little running ability.

    Still say vet Ricky Ray-gun can best Reilly in a big game; with more QB smarts + accuracy. Love to see that GC match-up.

    Reilly's running ability (390 yards this year) and his willingness to sacrifice his body, especially when trying to score, as witnessed in his 12 rushing TDs, provides an extra dimension to his game and inspires his teammates to give the extra effort. However, putting his body on the line so much risks him being injured and therefore could be an important factor in determining how well the Eskimos do in the playoffs.
