Insulted Knuckles. Insulted the fans. Acted like a complete ******* to everybody. Thought he was smarter than he was. Terrible decisions. Lack of results. Kelly was the Donald Trump of coaches.

He left the team worse off at the qb position. I mean yes Glenn maybe wouldn't take the team to the promised land... but he was better than the **** jelly threw out there. Toss Glenn when you have a replacement, not before.

Guy was the start or the spiral towards the darkest times... decided Kevin Glenn wasn't good enough and opting to hitch his wagon to a guy who had proven nothing... you don't replace Glenn until someone in house is pushing him out or you sign a proven starter in FA. Just then first in a series of "smarter than everyone else" moves Kelly made to damage the team. He put his ego aside yeah maybe he could have been an OK coach, but having to be gm, he, oc, everything just sewered the team.

Clinched Central Division title and Western Conference Regular Season Champions banner.

Actually, Calgary still has a chance to catch St Louis as well. Still some final slots to be finalized.

I remember him cutting talented guys and then running a crappy out dated offense that failed horribly and mid season he tried to salvage the year by signing Bishop and throwing bombs. Maybe I mis-remembered , but didn't Kelly critique anyone running plays in the shotgun formation and then mid season that was all that he was running?

IMO MCI isn't in the same realm as a guy like Yazbeck as a tailback. A lot of people put stock into the system Yazbeck was in at Western, but his backfield mate Keon Edwards who had 3000 yards career rushing going into last year 7+ yards a carry was a 5 yard a carry guy last year while Yazbeck was 10. There's something special there. Even a guy like Knight is a bit of an enigma but there's definitely teams that have been following him for 3-4 years that see a ton of talent there and don't care too much about the combine/NFL talk. If anything the testing numbers probably solidify him as a CFLer. And he's probably the most reliable receiver of the tailback in this draft and that carries a lot for the role of a running back in this era. Think MCI could be a nice special teams, H-back type guy in the passing game. Kind of what we mostly needed that Augustine roster spot to be over the years, way more raw physicality there to develop on special teams. Don't really see him being a significant option carrying the ball. Certainly not a guy who is going to dictate draft strategy by being on the roster. Obviously have potentially a more pressing need at receiver but for the most part think the Bombers can go best player available with an eye to some spots where the Canadian depth is aged. To me with a Canadian starting at running back and potentially wanting to use 3 Americans on OL having more of that Harris/Oliviera, younger Augustine type combo where you have a guy that can slot in and produce if Brady needs to miss 2-3 games with minimal roster disruption. Wouldn't force the pick, but the guys are on the board who could offer that. Other alternative is to be ready to swap a Canadian in at receiver for an American which is also something that can be achieved by grabbing a couple nice pieces/prospects out of this draft IMO. Then you have another guy in the MCI mould who are crazy athletes with minimal tailback reps like Oshinubi. That guy needs a year or two to be a player in a CFL offense but can play special teams right away on sheer athleticism. I wouldn't be surprised to see a bunch of top 3 round picks from last year and 2023 not make their teams this year due to the strength of this rookie class. MCI is a guy that could be on that list depending on who we draft at receiver/RB and special teams with the DB/LB class. There's going to be a lot of good competition for the Canadian roster spots around the league.

Was thinking this morning...Keanu Yazbeck would be a great pick for us in the 2nd or 3rd round. A guy who legitimately could spell Brady and be a difference maker. Very similar style, a little more twitchy, a little less brute force but very similar. Would be nice to have a critical mass of guys in the backfield to keep them all up for 18 games + playoffs. I think we could easily walk away from this draft with a couple playmakers on O who are good ones from Day 1. There's a crapload of receivers. Guys who would be 1st-2nd rounders in most drafts will probably be around in the 4th round, and that's discounting the obvious NFL guys.

Morrissey with his 2nd... Saves the Jets bacon for now No but a Lambert call up for playoffs would have been a possibility.

Yes was a concerted effort to lean down...still big and.poweful but more explosive and some elusiveness to him...not all about battering ram style..as that wasn't gonna.be sustainable

Kelly is one level of *******, but imagine the level of thinking what he did to fans and media was good....

Picture of BO from TSN Media Day this week, he looked like he'd lost about 40lbs. I wasn't sure if it was just Photoshop or if he actually did lose a pile of weight. He still looks jacked, just not as thick as he was.

We need to make MCI into a multi role hybrid guy..a bigger Drury type...but be important on jumbo packages...like I said..I'd like to see him used at times like a true TE...like they say you can't teach/coach athleticism and he's prob top 3 on our team in regards to athleticism...they will find his role BO to me seems to be morphing his game a Lil from what I seen this offseason..I think we gonna see more quickness and explosion outta him..coming in more lean

Mascots vs. SSK Junior football teams lol

I’d consider giving Salomonnson a call up but he’s an rhd. Maybe toninato at forward. I’m not sure anyone else deserves a shot. Chib? Hurt. Lambo? Hurt. Yager? WHL still. Tyrell Bauer would be fun but I don’t think they do that.

Agreed. But there’s only so many you can rest right. I’d prob rest Helle Josh another D let’s say samberg. Get ville and fleury in. Forwards? Whoever is banged up a bit. Ehlers for sure. Maybe apples. Rest one of Demelo pionk or Schenn and get miller in there also on D. haven’t heard any call ups yet so bet Ehlers is the only guy resting up front. Need to call players up first. Gus ville fleury miller would all be playing so 1 forward 2 LHD and 1 rhd sits. Comrie starts also. I’d limit 55 and 81s ice although 81 4 points away from 100. Moose prob still in town since last regular season home game last night so maybe by 2 we hear if anyone been called up. Not sure who could be even.

So who gets the night off? Safe to assume Helle and Ehlers will sit….. others? I’d like to see them rest as many as possible.

Wonder if this will be in the building tonight with Bill Daly?

So the Jets will play Stl, Min or Cgy in the 1st round. With the Blues being hot as of late, I'd rather see the Jets play Min or Cgy. Canucks are currently leading the Wild. It would be nice to see them win to keep things interesting with wild card race.

McIntyre seems to think they will easily move the concert date and have the Jets play Saturday since their last game is Weds. He doesn't think teams that play on Thursday would play on Saturday. I disagree as I would think Sportsnet would want Toronto and or Montreal to play on Saturday.

🥇 Maroon 🥈 Martinez 🥉 91

It's the most Ehlers moment ever to get injured on a nothing play in a nothing game... **** sakes. And Brad Lambert gets obliterated in the Moose game and hurt a leg/foot and is out for who knows how long...

Easy narrative.

Special Teams in general.

Hell.yeah....like to see him incorporated as true TE in sets..sub 4.5 speed...size...whats not to like Yup...needs reps and some quality coaching...once its instinct for him to run with a lower pad level and see plays develop...could be a real asset From all accounts he has good hands...so I'd love to see some slot/TE work and swing/wheel plays out of backfield Intruiging guy...in space or a seam he can definitely run away from pretty much anyone and also run you over...he just needs reps...and developed...this new OC and Jackson could be a godsend for him...Buck had no clue what to do with him...and Osh even less so guys just get wasted...

'Everything being handled internally'.....was this guys mantra...I lost a lot of respect for him after h started dumping on Knuckles....He seemed he was always in fear of being exposed....The mug shot says it all

Comrie's little one finally arrived

I would be ELATED to just be a part of the outdoor party... What a time among a sea of like minded fans.

The Jets have officially announced that all round 1 games are sold out. For people that still want to go to a game (and not pay resale prices), I wouldn't give up hope. I'd continue to periodically check ticketmaster to see if tix become available, especially the day of the game (make it a point to check around 10am and 2pm). If there is still no tix available I would go down to the arena box office a couple of hours before the game. (Buy a tix to the whiteout just in case you cant get game tix). I did this for the 1st 2.0 Jets playoff game. There were about 50 people that were ahead of me in line but I still got tix (albeit it was close to puck drop). I am not sure if the process is the same as it was then however. What they did is give everyone waiting in line a raffle ticket. Then they made a draw and whomsoever number was drawn that person became the front of the line. If they do that and you are with friends the strategic thing to do would be to space yourselves out in the lineup. While waiting in line I would also check the resale prices as those would be going down closer to puck drop.

Depends on the match-up. Despite their flaws, Jets have had some brutal first round pairings the last few years (St. Louis who were on a heater and won the Cup, Edmonton who we swept, Vegas who won the Cup, and our reward for a 110 point season last year was playing the 106 point Avs who were two years removed from winning the Cup). No one seems to factor that in when considering our ouster each year. Hopefully we see Vancouver, Calgary, or even Minnesota in round one this year.

the Moose aren't going to the playoffs anyway so...
