Now for the negative. I'm really tired of seeing the opposition start drives on the 40-50 yard lines and we start from the 20-25. We need our special teams to get going if we are going to have a shot at beating Winnipeg this year.

Not a good sign for Fajardo if they can't even wait until the half to replace him.

Who is our special teams coach? He should be gassed at halftime. Another poor return coupled with another penalty. How many times has that happened this season?

OK Lions, take a few deep breaths, compose yourselves and get ready for the second half

Well at least the Lions aren't down by 20 points and need a big 2nd half to pull out a victory.

Sask gets the ball first I believe in the second half so the Lions need to stop that initial drive and then take the ball and score to quiet the crowd and kill any momentum that last minute TD gave the Riders.

Would like to see James Butler get some more touches too change up the pace of the game.

TSN panel wasn't impressed with Marino. They said he was trying to go after Lucky's head.
