The best team over the last four seasons just completely dominated us for 30 minutes and it’s a one score game at half-time!

Jim Barker just stated that the Lions DL is too small. See we do know what we are talking about on this forum!

Total domination by Bombers but Lions pulling out all the stops to stay in the game.

The defence is starting to shift this game. The offence needs to catch up.

Looks like defense was finally able to slow down BO. Let's see what adjustments BC does at the half

The Lions must be thankful to be down by only one score at halftime. They tightened up their defence in the second quarter. They need to find a way to move the ball through the air in the second half. Adams was just 5 of 12 for 99 yards passing in the first half, with 3 passes tipped at the line. The Bombers are taking away his first read. He has to find a way to get the ball downfield.

They need to roll VA out. Too many balls getting knocked down at the line. Receivers seemed to have issues getting open as well.

Why are we not using Cottoy? Can be a tight end for us. Block and go upfield for 8-10 yard gains.

The little bit of success at the end of the half should encourage VA. I hope. We miss Hatcher but I can’t understand the lack of throw to Rhymes. Boggles my mind.

How do you stop the run against bigger, or stronger players? No matter the playbook? Seems it's just simple physics.

With the ankle / knee issue I don't think he's capable of that often enough. Not stepping into throws either hinders his location & velocity which we've seen already.
