D.B Cooper Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Ooof. This team doesn’t seem to be much without NR. It’s amazing how one player can make a whole football team better. Going to be a long finish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 The turning point, for me, was when we had a chance in the red zone and....that pass to Hatcher that he didn't seem aware of/ready for. He's out there in a good position to block...just run it in behind him. Starting to run with a clear path then abandoning that? Rourke would've been in there for the TD. We were coming on in the second half but a few plays just really sucked the wind out of the sails. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't like some of the play calling. 2nd down and inches- imo should be treated as a free down, go for lots more yards, if they end up not getting a completion, they have another try to then get the 7 inches they needed. how many more months will it take to get the special teams working properly? horrible tackling, letting people escape for an extra 5-6 yards on way to many occasions. I noticed on a few missed tackles they seemed to be going for the ball moreso than stopping the play. Yep, horrible tackling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I think that game illustrates just how important the QB position is in the CFL.... NFL teams can (and have) won on the strength of a great defense, a good running game and a QB who just limits the mistakes. I don't think that works in 3 down football. What a waste of a terrific season start.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 For 2nd place in the division: Lions game today 4 pm pacific- playing Calgary @ 4 pm pacific; after a Winnipeg Hamilton game that begins at 1 pm pacific. Was good to see Edmonton win yesterday, helps to keep Saskatchewan well back of the now struggling Leos.

Barnstorm Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 BC up on Calgary 7-0 in first quarter. Offence looks rejuvenated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) What a game! What a huge overtime win! Man, that was close. BC in second place in the West AND have the season series over CGY. That’s was a heart pumper of a game.

RUPERTKBD Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 So glad they were able to deny that late conversion.....a tie in football is like kissing your sister.... ....of course, in Calgary, that's just a normal Saturday night.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Giulio on 730 sounded like he was going to have a fit while the challenge was going on. “No way that’s a P.I!” Then he was so hoarse that he sounded like Rick from ‘Rick and Morty’. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew a challenge was coming as soon as the ball hit the turf... It was one of those plays that's just borderline enough that you're not 100% sure how the officials will see it. With the game over anyway, there was no reason for the Stamps not to try, even though the correct call was obviously made.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PistolPete13 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Gutsy win by the Lions today. It was fun watching Adams JR spread the ball around. Defence came up big when they had to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post johngould21 Posted September 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2022 The cops had to get between the Stamps and Lion players near the dressing room/parking lot after the game. Lucky was suckerpunched by a Stamp, and I guess a pack of Lions went looking. At the end of the game they were showing Lucky walking off the field like Bambi. I don't know what started it all, but I'm sure there will be suspensions etc. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that Argos player going after fans in Hamilton or Winnipeg I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Happy to see Rourke on the sidelines and in the room celebrating the win. He's their biggest cheerleader and I'm sure they're even more determined to win for (and without) him. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to be cheering this team on from Honolulu for the next month, so get out to the games. My tickets are already spoken for. Watch for my grand daughter giving her all to the Lions dance team in the game vs the Red Blacks. She's doing a bit of a routine with them, all 8 years old of her. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
