Because this is Mark Washington's Defence...you play passive all year long and you CAN'T INSTANTLY TURN IT ON during the playoffs...I have said this for the last 10 weeks!!!B.C.FAN wrote:The Lions needed a defensive stop on this drive and instead they rolled over.

I'm so glad we had this time together.
Just to see you make a play or two.
Seems we just get started and before you know it.
We can say goodbye this year to you.

Well this game has sucked. Between Lions doing nothing, cold, my son being pretty uncomfortable and everyone smoking everywhere (yay Montreal), don't think we'll be sticking around much. :(

I hadn't expected that much this year but it was certainly more than this. l do hope that there is some silver lining that comes out of this.

But if it means that we clear house and bring in a new staff with top coaches that can compete with Hufnagel, Jones, Austin, etc, then it was WELL WORTH IT...with Benevides at the helm this team has been on a major slide to the bottom of the league, without him, without any major change in our talent level, we can be right back on top again in one off season!Sir Purrcival wrote:I'm so glad we had this time together.

Hmmm I suppose thats why they don't have Glenn throw on the roll-out. Brutal
Pick to Bear Woods. Wonder if our friend from Alabama is watching this dog's breakfast.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Yes but the big question will be "if" they get new staff to compete with some of the other coaches out there. If there has been one complaint about the Lions over the years, it has been that they have been very slow to react to some obvious problems. We are only into year 2 of major complaining. Let's hoepe there isn't a year 3
