Bad pass. It could have worked. The wide sode recejvers are also open for short yardage butthe Lions seldom throw there.

What's it going to take for Lulay's ass to be parked? Just a horrible throw again.

Is Tedford stupid? What a terrible call again! Did he not learn last week. It's only a seven point game, punt and pin them deep

I think we need to think about pulling Lulay. He really isn't looking good and isn't moving the ball.

I had the same thought but WTF is going on.

I doubt the fake bomber punt was a coach decision. but some bad coaching errors on two teams here...lol

Why give bc 2 and 18 when u could leave it at 3rd down. Oh right O shea knew they'd blow it again.

This is becoming the Inept Bowl.

7-minute edge in TOP and we're down by as many points. Because losing 3-1in the turnover battle.
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.

Of course we're going to give up a first down, we're backing the *frig* off the ball and back past the first down mark. What the hell

Lirim H adds another chip shot, 20-10 BC.

We had 6 points in the final 44 minutes last week. At the rate we're going tonight it could be 3 in the final 51.

I don't disagree with the gamble, but Lulay has to be better.

Down by 10. We need Harris t step up his game even more. Looking like the Riders knew what they were doing dumping Cortez. Shocking he is up in the spotter's both and this is what he comes up with to attack defences.

I said his explanation to the team was a sign he didn't get it was a bad call last week.

He didn't get the lesson learning from the last game.

He had to call TO early in the 1st Q as he sent out his punt team on a 1 yder. He needs to trust his OC but doesn't seem to on those calls.

Maybe BC has a talent issue.
