EDMONTON -- Edmonton Eskimos quarterback Mike Reilly went through a normal day of practice Wednesday and showed no signs of any residual concussion symptoms following the nasty head shot he took from Toronto Argonaut defensive lineman Cleyon Laing last Saturday. LaMarcus Aldridge Jersey . Reilly was knocked out the game and the team said on Sunday he had suffered a concussion. He missed practice Tuesday but was back taking most of the reps on Wednesday. "Today was pretty much full-go for me." the six-foot-three, 215-pound first-year Eskimo said afterwards. "Because its non-contract every day for us (quarterbacks) nothing changed for me than it would on a normal Day 2. (Thursday) we will probably be a little more rigorous than a normal Day 3 for me. Well come out, have a normal practice and then do some strenuous cardio stuff and just push everything a little harder than normal. "As long as everything continues to go as expected Im hopeful that Ill be cleared to play. There only a few days but those are long days, theres still lots to do." The 3-10 Eskimos play the 5-8 Montreal Alouettes Saturday in a game they have to win to retain any realistic playoff hopes. Reilly remained in the game for one play after the hit -- throwing a touchdown pass -- but was pulled after feeling dizziness and confusion on the sidelines. He said Wednesday hes felt no adverse symptoms since waking up on Sunday. "My schedule, my routine hasnt changed. The first night after the game even went pretty smoothly. Neck was a little sore that night but gone by the next morning. Since then theres been nothing to deal with. Meals have been going good, sleeping is going well, meetings and picking up the ready list and being prepared has all gone well." He admitted, however, that concussions affect people differently and hes not out of the woods yet. "This is a learning experience and realizing what guys go through when they get injured," he said. "Its not fun to be on this side of it but Im just thankful that things have gone well so far and hopefully they will continue to be that way. "It was disappointing not being able to practice yesterday. That was the first practice Ive ever missed, college, high school, professional or anything." Reilly, in his fourth CFL season, has taken a tremendous amount of punishment this season but said it was ironic that he took the most dangerous hit when he was doing what people have been saying he should do to protect himself. "Everybodys talked all season about how I need to change my style of play because Im going to get hurt and the play I get hurt on Im actually in the pocket and Im not out there running around trying to lower my head." He watched a replay of the hit early this week and said it was a "scary hit" but felt there was nothing he could have done differently to avoid it. "I just feel fortunate that there hasnt been any bad long-term symptoms to this point. But Im also not naive. I understand things can still creep up and until Im cleared to play Im not going to breathe too easily." Head coach Kavis Reed said while Reilly looked fine Wednesday and was sharp with his passes, the team will monitor him closely the rest of the week. "We still have 72 hours we can work with," he said. "There are still some hurdles he has to cross but right now were hopeful hell be cleared to play." Cheap Blazers Jerseys .com) - Whew!

Now that I have a little perspective on it, yeah, its hard to do. To do what we accomplished in a short period of time was amazing.The Patriots have been to two Super Bowls in the last nine seasons. Helped by two late receptions — one on David Tyrees trap against his helmet, the other on a long throw down the sideline to Mario Manningham — the New York Giants won close games.If those passes were incomplete, Brady might have a Super Bowl ring for each finger of one hand.Weve come up short a few times in some big ones, but were lucky to be in those games, too, he said after the Patriots held a rare scrimmage during practice to motivate them during their bye week.It was fun to have a real competitive day, Brady said. I could see why its so hard to score on our defence, though, I can tell you that. Theyve got a lot of good players.In the blue vs. white scrimmage, the white team won, cornerback Brandon Browner said — his team.We won by a field goal, he said. It was a great way to keep guys competing and get something out of practice because it is a bye week so youve got some guys, their minds are on maybe getting out of here or trying to get done with the week.The Patriots (12-4), the AFCs top seed, practice Thursday, and then have three days off before a weightlifting day Monday. They will start practicing on Tuesday for their divisional game.Many of them will watch this weekends playoff games that will determine their opponent on Jan. 10 in Gillette Stadium.It will be the Baltimore Raveens if they beat the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday. Kevin Duckworth Jersey. Otherwise, it will be the winner of Sundays game between the Indianapolis Colts and Cincinnati Bengals.Whoever it is, the Patriots offence needs to improve over its last two performances, the least productive of the season.New England gained just 231 yards but edged the weak New York Jets 17-16 on Dec. 21. Then they picked up 260 in a 17-9 loss to Buffalo, although Brady played just the first half and tight end Rob Gronkowski and wide receiver Julian Edelman didnt play at all because the game had no bearing on their post-season seeding.And the Patriots have beaten three other AFC playoff teams — Cincinnati, Denver and Indianapolis — by at least 22 points.You just have to believe in what youre doing and believe in each other and go out there and play with a lot of confidence, Brady said. In spurts weve done some really good things, and other times our execution hasnt been as sharp.It really doesnt matter at this point what has happened — good, bad or indifferent. It just really matters what we really do from this point on. Every team has the same record.Brady won his first 10 playoff games. But in the last five seasons, he is 4-5 with losses in the Patriots first game in the first two years, and then the Super Bowl loss followed by losses in the AFC championship game the past two years.To be that final team is pretty tough, he said, but weve also put ourselves in a good position, so thats all you can ask for at this point for us.We look ahead to it with confidence knowing that we are capable of playing the best teams and playing really well against some of the best teams. All year weve done that, and now weve just got to do it in a single-elimination tournament.___Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
