Huge play to force a fumble on the first play of the game and we only get a FG!! :bang:

Am I the only one who bets the Riders or Stamps punch that it?

Execution, not play calling this time. Gore blows a block on the swing pass to Taylor. Lumbala blocks inside when he should have slid outside on the sack.

But to your point, I'd agree.

You are right on the execution, but this lack of red-zone success is frustrating. Whether it's execution or play calling, the Lions aren't in the same boat as the Stamps or Riders right now.

No one open downfield. Scramble. Strip. Turnover.

A Bomber fan shows off his new found ability to count to seven.

Either LaRose was supposed to take Edwards, or Bighill was supposed to pick him up as part of his zone responsibility and slipped dropping back on the reception that led to the TD.

Replay seems to indicate Edwards was supposed to have under/over with LaRose under and Marsh over. LaRose didn't keep up.

Another brutal 1st quarter for the Lions offence.

Sorry, but how many of you this week dismissed my claims about the Lions offence AND Defensive Line issues??? This is arguably the worst team in the league we are playing, at home I might add, after a humiliating loss, against yet another rookie QB and we are in trouble.

The offence is attempting to try some new things (SOME) but when they do you can see that it hasn't been practised very much, and we look very sloppy...on passing downs, Lulay is doing the same old, same old...7 step drop, no one open, or he can't see, so he takes off and gets hit hard...THERE IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH CHAPS OFFENCE.

Defensively, our DLine isn't controlling the LOS...this is going to be a problem as the game progresses.

I said it this week, with a different schedule we might have been 1-5 after this week.

How did things turn so quickly on the Leos.

Stubler is being extremely stubborn in not rushing more than four guys. Two plays total to the 12:39 mark in the 2nd quarter.
