Now Hervey can be Buonos' puppet and do as he's told. Nothing will change. Same crap. Who is available out there right now that could replace Wally? Unless Dickenson is getting fired. Braley really needs to sell the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spur1 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 At last the Lions have fired Jones. Should have done it 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Kind of a long read, but an interesting look into the path Trent Richardson took to get to the Green Riders: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2749275-trent-richardsons-long-journey-back-to-the-nfl-might-not-be-over-yet?utm_source=cnn.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=editorial Quote Inside a packed Canadian stadium far away from the NFL, Trent Richardson, a man once considered a can't-miss prospect and a favorable comparison to Adrian Peterson, looked like he still might be. Granted, it was only four games, but donning No. 33 for the Saskatchewan Roughriders, he danced around CFL defenders, and at times, opted to bulldoze over them. Back was the power, the speed, the swagger that made him a star in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Two months in rural and freezing Regina, Saskatchewan—where the average temperature is 36.7 degrees—gave Richardson more joy on a football field than he had experienced in more than five years.

fivethej Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Lions are making good hires. I wonder if there's any way Hervey could bring back Reilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alflives Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Bighill signs in Winnipeg. I don’t get why we would not sign him? Manziel signs in Hamilton. I wonder if his game here tops 30,000 fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fivethej Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Bighill said if he ever returned to CFL he would be back with Lions. So what happened. Some thanks he shows the Lions who released him so he could pursue NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spur1 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 First thing....why is it the Lions don’t have their own section here in the CDC? Are we B.C. fans or are we Albertans. Second thing....is I can’t wait to see the Lions new offence at work. I said fire the offence coordinater for two seasons. Third thing .....Can’t wait to see the new D line and some pressure on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also would be good to see Jennings doing more scrambling for yards, I'd like to see him carry the ball between 10-15% of the time and having the rest divided evenly between running backs and receivers. Looking forward to a few more "trick' plays as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Leos could learn something from Mike O'Shea in that department, as far as I'm concerned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. In past years Jon and Lulay ran a lot of option plays but they were ineffective because the QB never ran. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
