And now the flags
There was a memo pre-game. Lions DBs are not allowed to touch the Winnipeg receivers, or else it is an automatic flag.

These refs are a joke.

No kidding. VA is back to being John Travolta..i could see it was Bad VA from the start...taking way too long in the pocket to throw....hesitant. watching the rush, juking, jitterbugging, and generally looking stupid back there.

I could see early that he was not cognizent of where Jefferson was lined up and had two passes tipped, one intercepted.

They are nullifying Betts with the run and play action.

Anyone who thought the Bombers passing attack was more of a concern than their running game prior to this game needs to kick themselves in the butt.

Castillo misses his second FG. The football gods giving the Lions every chance to stay in this game.

Didn’t get points on a great return to start the half, need to put something up on this drive or at least drive it and pin the Bombers deep

Another break but offence showing no signs it can put a decent drive together

The B.C. offence is designed to attack coverage in the intermediate zone downfield. Without Hatcher, they have to find another target. The Bombers are sitting on everything underneath.
