goalie13 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Touchdown!!!!! So you're saying there's a chance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I liked how the team didn't quit....Rourke in particular, who seems to thrive under pressure. They gave it a go. Was a weird game...not very well played but could've honestly gone either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForestFalcon Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Unfortunate that BC just ran out of time at the end there. Was a great attempt to make the comeback, just needed a little more time. Still wouldn't have been easy but would have loved to see how far they could have gone with that last drive.

D.B Cooper Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Wow. What a bummer. Rourke was surprisingly bad today. Around 50% pass completion is a bad stat for even a bad QB, let alone someone like him. He buckled under the pressure. Where was the running game also????? Our defence was picked apart by the Bombers running game. I didn’t expect us to win. I really didn’t. But I didn’t think Rourke would suck.

goalie13 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Now that this Lions' season is done, my big hope is that the team can keep building with an eye on that home field Grey Cup in 2024. I fully intend on buying tickets. Going to the Grey Cup is one of those things I have always wanted to do, and wouldn't it be awesome if the Lions could be in the game on home turf?

I was at the 2011 Grey Cup in BC Place to see the Lions beat the Bombers. One of my all time favourite days in sport and that was beyond just the victory. Grey Cups are so special with big groups of fans from every team all decked out in their colours out to have a good time and celebrate the CFL. The pregame festivities outside the dome were a blast meeting people from across the country. More fun definitely when your team is in it but still such a good time even it they’re not! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that play, should the runner stop and down himself at the 1 yd line and let the offense take it in for the TD. I mean that takes a bit of CFL IQ but players should know the rules?

Sure they lost but there is a lot to look forward too. A lot of youth on the Lions. It is hard to keep rosters together but hopefully they all come back, especially Rourke. Hoping he does because going to an NFL team to be a backup to the backup cannot be much fun. Another year with the Lions and a Grey Cup in the resume might get a better opportunity. As far as the game went it was all about the Winnipeg running game. They couldn't stop the guy. He won the game for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to add a large back to compliment Butler. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Running game and special teams hurt the team? You don't say? Still a good season, lot of progress made. I believe Rourke will still be here next year, but his deal ends after next season. If the team fixes those two issues, and remains healthy; next year could be record setting magic! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnstorm Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 It’s being reported that Nathan Rourke is going south to workout with an NFL team. No teams named as of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What really hurt during that game was seeing Buck Pierce calling the offensive plays. Such a great Lion and we lose him to Winnipeg. It is like Dickensen coaching the Stamps. Pierce as a sounding board for Rourke. Make it happen BC Lions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
