Great to watch Fajardo decimate our D. All these former Lion’s humiliating Hervey and crew.
Ex-Lions all over the CFL exposed Hervey for being a terrible GM this weekend. The only former Lion who didn't make me want to curse Hervey was Jennings.

The coach has to pull Reilly. He can’t insist on taking every snap.

This mess is all on Hervey. Turning out to be a complete fraud as a GM

Reilly still in the game. Dumb. Who is the head coach ? Claybrooks or Reilly ?

Cant believe how far the Lions have fallen...have been a fan forever, but clearly management is lost....Rielly's best days are behind him, and the rest of the signings reek of pathetic. Do you think Wally would come out of retirement for at least ac couple more years. This group sucks.

Because the sooner Reilly is lost for the season the sooner Claybrooks will have an excuse for the Lions missing the playoffs.

If it was up to me I’d fire him tommorrow.

This is is his doing:

1. Got rid of Lions players that could still play.
2. Signed players who aren’t producing(eg. Konar, Carter)
3. Choose Claybrooks and allowed him to surround himself with inexperienced coaches.
4. Most likely forced Claybrooks to keep Jarious as the OC
5. Signed Reilly to a huge contract and didn’t provide him with an offensive line worthy of a BCJHL team!

Week after week you’d think this group would improve and build but I don’t see any progress. What a complete mess.

Hervey is a joke...I totally agree with most of the trueLion fans..got rid of players that still have talent...Fajardo, Awe, etc...and hired all his loser buddies. Great won't attend a game until he's gone..byeeeeeeee Hervey

agree with all the good players let go, Lokombo, awe, purifoy, fenner, and more all starting on good teams... even augustin in pres eason looked good and hungry.... I even liked Fajardo as a back up, OBrien has been terrible whenever hes been in with previous teams. We've folded in every 4th quarter adnd Claybrooks said hes leaves rielly in to show that its a 60 min game... uh not working....

The fact Reilly was still in the game that late when the game was out of reach says a lot of just how incompetent this management and coaching staff is.
