Wally was on the radio right after Jeff Garcia was brought in by MTL. He said he was very surprised that Garcia was in coaching. He mentioned Garcia was not an X's and O's guy during his playing days. Personally, I have my doubts about Garcia. IMO there is zero chance that he has the ability to prod...

I guess we can now ask this question of who to cheer for/against in the different context of who you'd rather see win the Grey Cup. To be sure it's always a drag when the Lions don't make it, but at this point with this matchup I think I'd prefer to see Ham take it, if only because they've had the ...

Can't say I agree or disagree with this move until the new head coach/coaching staff is unveiled. Why I feel a little bad for Benny: -He's a defensive guy, and our defense was pretty damn good. Our offensive coaching staff is pure dirt. -I get that the coach is partly responsible for making sure his...

We need offensive minds!! ... Richie Hall would be redundant.

OFFENSIVE MINDS!

East and West Semi-Finals have been a very tough sell historically.
The Lions would probably get around 23-25k out to a semi-final. Though we haven't hosted a West-semi since 1986.

Spread the wealth. What does that mean... Spread the wealth just for the sake of spreading it? Mitchell did better than Ray, yet Cornish got the nod for Calgary. Elimimian gets the nod for the west over Cornish. If Ray wins, it will be a total travesty, regardless of who is competitor from the west...

IMO, in order to increase the O play and stats the league needs to put increased restrictions on the amount of contact that a DB can initiate with a receiver. In other words the receivers need a better opportunity for getting open. :2cents: I couldn't agree with the above post more, this is indeed ...

Milanovich is a beauty. I think we were nuts to let go of the only coach we had (jarious jackson) that has ever been exposed to a trestman/milanovich offense (when jarious backed up ray in toronto in 2012). That wealth of knowledge of that offense literally just dissapeared with the departure of jar...

Great opportunity for these players.
Needed every one of those 9 wins to make the playoffs. 2 more to get to the grey cup at home

Good to hear

Win by 8, or don't win at all

One win to get to the postseason. That is all. Wpg can't get to 9. And there is no all three eastern teams can get to 9 wins.

One win

I'd like to clarify that I don't believe it is actually the "refs on the field" that are at fault. They're calling the game as they are being told.
This all starts at the top with Glen Johnson (Director of Officiating) and the CFL competition committee.

A couple of thoughts that have really started to irk me as the season has gone along: 1) CFL defensive backs are allowed to clutch, grab, hold, receivers downfield: - Next time you're at a Lions home game, just watch how secondaries in the CFL play the receivers. - Oh so you want to run a 10 yard cu...

The CFL needs to step in and artificially create offense moving forward. 1) They need to create a rule to have a minimum 3 Canadian starters on defense. Or at least a gradual increase from 2 next year up to 3 in 2016. 2) As long as DB's are allowed to MAUL RECEIVERS by grabbing, clutching, and holdi...
