Re: Lions call press conference: Wally steps down as HC

Blitz, why wouldn't it surprise you if Washington got the job? Seniority? His relationship with Mike Benevides? What about Mark Washington makes you think he'd be a bad defensive coordinator?

Re: new uniforms in 2012?

I want orange to remain the primary colour. Honestly, I don't have a problem with the current uniforms. Sure, they're a little simplistic, but sometimes simpler is better. I love the alternate they wore at home against the Argonauts on Labour day weekend. The black with the orange sleeves and the or...

Re: Lions 43 - Alouettes 1 Post Game Stats and Comments

I noticed during the after-game handshakes that Trestman and Benevides had relatively long conversation with smiles, much more than the normal "good job" and back pat. Trestman was probably complimenting Bene on his masterful defensive game-plan (and perhaps wondered if he ever thought of...

Re: Lions 43 - Alouettes 1 Post Game Stats and Comments

Wow, what an impressive performance. Montreal was not just a road team going through the motions but a team that was also playing first place, a bye, and the opportunity to host the Eastern Final. Offensively and defensively we destroyed them while our special teams were solid as well. At the start...

Re: Lions 43 - Alouettes 1 Post Game Stats and Comments

Just a dominant game from start to finish. Equally as dominant as the 42-5 win against the Riders in Regina. Amazing season. One of the most amazing seasons I've ever witnessed. Two more games, boys. Bring it home!!! :rockin: :rockin:

Re: Lions 29 - Riders 18 Post Game Stats and Comments

I give the Riders a lot of credit for playing hard. Durant led them to battle and they did not go down without a fight. When the game was on the line, the Lions got big plays from three players who have been making big plays throughout this winning streak: Arland Bruce, Andrew Harris and Paul McCal...

Re: Lions 29 - Riders 18 Post Game Stats and Comments

Huge comeback victory this afternoon, but for 3 quarters we looked very much like the sub -.500 team we have morphed from. We are already starting to show complacent behavior with our game planning, play selection, and lackadaisical execution on the field, thus the reason for so many so many droppe...

Re: Lions 29 - Riders 18 Post Game Stats and Comments

Tough game against an opponent that was pretty much out of it. I thought the team battled really hard, and found a way to pull it out in the 4Q. Great job Leos. I like Kierre Johnson more and more every time I see him. The end-arounds and mis-direction with him are great. I was worried through three...

Re: Looks like first in the west will have to wait

I watched the game after work...good lord. Something is really wrong in Riderville. They were emotionless and legarthic. There was almost zero enthusiasm for anything they did. Getzlaf would make a big catch, no celebration. James Patrick made a big hit on Cornish, nobody celebrated, or got excited....

Re: Lions 33 - Eskimos 24 Post Game Stats and Comments

Only saw the 4Q tonight due to work. The one touchdown drive I saw was fantastic. Travis Lulay is really coming on, I thought he got in the end zone on the run where he stepped out (apparently) at the three. Doesn't matter though, we hit Geroy for a TD on the following play. :yahoo: The defense seem...

Re: Durant a Victim of Phillips' Head Games - Lowell Ullrich

I was at the game and durant almost threw a pick six on the same play earlier in the game, but threw it over the receivers head. Also you have no idea how much this game means to me, being a lions fan born in Saskatoon :D Hopefully we can keep this streak going and bring a home playoff game to the ...

Re: What has Wally done right? Let us count the ways ...

Anybody notice that our short yardage plays this year has been the best we've seen in years. Besides the one failed attempted on a 3rd and 1, we've been pretty good. It seems like anytime we need 2 or 3 yards for the first down, they are able to run the ball and get it. It doesn't matter if it's Ro...

Dual Owner David Braley

I wonder how much pressure David Braley will be under going forward to sell either the Lions (most likely) or the Argonauts? I don't think the CFL likes the idea of one man owning two teams. I think Mark Cohon was willing to live with it because it was the least worst option when Howard Sokolowski a...
