Weird uncomfortable vibe in the Dome. Whoever wins it won't be a Rembrandt.

The Lions look like they are suffering the effects of the bye week

Interesting on that punt. Williams was waiting over on the left side. Well before the snap Benevides was waving frantically at him to go to the other side of the field. Sure enough ball went to the other side.

Adams or Evans, Lions QB not getting enough time in the pocket.

Watching Adams down on the sidelines he's walking stiff-legged on that left leg. Methinks his role for the rest of the game is for moral support.

Can anyone at the game today let us know if our receivers are having troubles getting open. Edmonton took advantage of a plethora of blown coverages last week by the Riders. They seemed to be wide open all game long.

Yes, the Riders are taking away the Lions’ first read, and the play is breaking down before the QB can go through his progressions. It happens at this time of year when teams know each other’s playbook. The Lions are doing the same but Fine has scrambled enough to make some plays or at least throw the ball away.

I wanna see more designed roll outs for Evans. He's not doing much out of the pocket

The Lions appear to have made some good halftime adjustments to get Evans out of the pocket but penalties are hurting them. The defence is constant.
