Re: West Final: Lions at Bombers

No. Cottoy has abilities as an in-line de-facto Tight End that McInnis does not. A lot of the offense is predicated around where Cottoy lines up and what he does/who he blocks. The two are very different players and are used differently schematically. Cottoy will beat you up in small areas in a way...

Re: West Final: Lions at Bombers

Best ever playoff performance by a Leos quarterback? Thinking maybe Joe Kapp? How about Doug Flutie..that would be a good choice. Or maybe Jerry Tagge? Nope. How about Kent Austin or maybe Danny McManus. Here is a thought...perhaps Damon Allan had one of his special outings? No? Then it had to be Ca...

Re: West Final: Lions at Bombers

I respectfully see it differently boys!! Oh oh!! :wink: Its a lively discussion!! McInnis ran a 5.57 40 yard time in college. Lucky ran a 4.4. No question he was fast for a while. But Lucky is now 31 and his top end speed peaked before this season. It would not surprise me, that today, in a 40 yard ...

Re: Leos/Stamps Post Game Thoughts

Another fantastic and highly entertaining read on Saturday's "VA Show" Blitz! Will be very interesting to see what Lucky Whitehead's role will be in the Western Final. If you ever wonder how many casual Lions fans there are just check out social media for all the comments wondering why Lu...

Re: Leos/Stamps Post Game Thoughts

I was very pleased to see our Leos win the Semi-Final in convincing fashion, to watch our Leos offence dissect Calgary's defense with our passing attack, to see Vernon Adams not only only throw bullets but look so decisive, as well as demonstrate pocket presence and use his legs to become a double t...

Leos/Stamps Post Game Thoughts

Our B.C. Lions are playing in the West Final in Winnipeg next weekend with a well-deserved resounding victory over the Calgary Stampeders. Our B.C. squad outplayed the Stamps on offence and defense. The zebras had only called one penalty against Calgary until near the end of the game, preventing Dic...

Re: Lions vs Calgary West Semi - Keys to the Game

BC RUN GAME: Great insights Blitz on the offense, etc. Not to quarrel with Blitz's perspectives other than to suggest how tough it must be for BC's O-line given lack of running play calls which gives the edge to the DEF before the snap of the ball. Toppy Vann Don't quarrel with me Toppy or you will...

Re: Lions vs Calgary West Semi - Keys to the Game

I'm not surprised that Mizzell is back as our starting tailback. I have not been impressed with either Mizzell or Hardy but its more than just a tailback issue. My issue with Mizzell is that he does not have a great ability to find the open hole. When a team utilizes a man blocking scheme, run plays...

Re: Teuhema Suspended for One Game

Farhan Lalji suspects Teuhema will appeal. A suspension for a playoff game would be a huge blow. If the Lions were scheduled to finish the regular season this week, he could have sat out without much effect. I guess the league looks at the situation that the would suspend any player for a playoff ga...

Re: Lions vs. Stamps Oct. 20, 2023

FOR BETTER OR WORSE. It was an embarrassing loss for our Leos in a game they were predicted to win. Our Leos had beaten Calgary twice this season and our Leos also had twice as many victories as the Stamps this season. There were many good reasons for our Leos to be motivated to play this game. It w...
