Short yardage play at least is improving.

Reilly has to throw the ball sooner

I like some of the things they are doing offensively but man they HAVE GOT to do something to tilt field position more in their favour. Starting inside your own 20 time and time again is a recipe for a loss. Reilly can help in that regard by simply throwing the ball OB instead of taking a loss although he had zero chance to do that on the most recent sack before the FG.

Is a punt a change of possession, and therefore requiring an automatic review? Officials completely blew that call altogether

Not a good game 3 to 3. Game can go either way. Again OL terrible giving up 5 sacks. Bryan Chiu needs to be fired at season's end. Lions may give up over 10 sacks tonight and over 80 on the year. No excuses game in game out to be this bad. Tiger Cats 5 sacks, Lions ZERO.

Lions are not a 2nd half team and think in the end they will find a way to lose this. But Tiger Cats will not win the Cup with Dale Evan. He is no Masoli and a team from the West will win this year.

As for Lions producing no offence, still taking too many penalties on Punt returns and only reason in this game is Evans like last game not producing either.

Game will come down to which defence plays best in the 2nd half and right now it probably will come down to final 3 minutes and who makes the best 2nd half adjustments.

Will be interesting to see if the Lions make any meaningful adjustments at the half

Reilly on at least 3 sacks took long. Burris showed it was 3.3 seconds. Toss it to a fan for a souvenir is spot on. Mike gets into a rut on sacks where it's all about his toughness vs. just dump it.

Some nice play calls to Moore now run that same screen on the left to Moore. I believe they got more Moore plays in as White was gone.

Sts give up too many penalties and bad field position.

Bonehead challenge too soon for nada and not having one that could have been a game changer.

I only hope this game comes down to the final 3 minutes. Recent history suggests it will be over in the next 10 minutes and not in our favour.

Kick return sucked AGAIN. Puts CATS at 50 with the punt.

These coaches need to kick some ass. Get tougher on brain farts.
