The flip side is they could be way behind at this juncture.

But yes, waaaay too sloppy for this time of year.

Lions very fortunate to be trailing by only 1 point at the half

They have continued what I call the "fail to step up" tradition of big games. These guys need something to make this team more complete. They make too many mental gaffs week after week. I almost feel like starting a pool on how many TO, they will give up any given game. There always seems to be a drive snuff interception or big stop on the ground or a missed FG or something that would have changed the game in their favour but results in a huge deflating missed opportunity.

This is a horse c___ game! Losing to a bunch of accountants? No tackling? (Ryan! For XXX) No scheme? No Defensive Coordination?

Very poor performance.

Got to think the Bombers are kicking themselves though. The half was partly textbook for them' they got the turnovers but only 6 points of those 4 TOS. Credit our defence, glad the TSN panel highlighted Turner.

Now down by 4. Way to start the second half. 2 plays with key missed tackles allow the Bombers to march far enough for a FG

TD for Gore. Good on him.

Nice to see Ianuzzi targeted a lot more this year. In previous years he barely got thrown to. Jennings really has a good arm to go for him at the wide side.

A pick by the Lions. Maybe half time talk was effective after all?

And Rainey takes a discipline penalty and then a huge sack and that momentum is totally pissed away.
