The Lions have to tighten up on defence. They’ve gone soft and give up too many easy yards and first downs. They’ve allowed an average of over 30 points a game in the second half of the season. Nearly a 1,000 yards in total offence combined in the last two games — never mind the time of possession....

You gotta win both games. Winnipeg Blue Bombers After an injury to Winnipeg Blue Bombers starting quarterback Kevin Glenn in the 4th quarter of the CFL East Division Final on November 18, 2007, Dinwiddie was pressed into action. He made his first CFL start for the Blue Bombers against the Saskatche...

Win them.

Otherwise, you don't need to be a soothsayer to see the Lions finishing second again, winning the semi, and then being crushed on the Manitoba tundra. The way you counter against this is by playing keep away with the ball when you have it on offense, something this offense is not designed to do (th...

What really concerns me about BC's defense is how soft they are defending stuff out in the flats. I noticed that when I was out in Montreal too. Want to move the ball against them well just let things develop slowly and either run the ball that way or have a receiver slide out there. Guaranteed the...

For this fan Rourke's reads were astonishingly fast. Then the quick delivery, with excellent accuracy. And his escape instincts are out of this world. A lot like Flutie? Absolutely. Of course the NFL did not like Flutie. Too small, etc. Eventually he got some time there, although it was far from op...

None gave a rat's @$$ about his CFL season?!?!?!? How did he manage to get calls from 2/3 of NFL teams and workouts with 12 while declining several other workout offers? These teams must have all suddenly found his Ohio tapes collecting dust in the closet if his CFL play was not a factor in making ...

It looks like Rourke is signing to be on the Jaguars practice roster. Rourke could have signed to be on the practice roster of any NFL team who wanted him for that role. Rourke thought he had a chance to challenge for the backup quarterback position in Jacksonville. But that was not the case. Beath...

I’ll spare you my shocked face. That said, he could and should one a job somewhere, if there is justice. I would question others assertion that he outplayed Beathard but frankly I’d rather have chosen Rourke in evaluating the two when considering the roster building exercise of building out a roster...

To Dano's point after your post the NFL is also struggling with QBs who can be top performers and that rule change for 3 is not going to help the CFL in future. Maybe someone needs to track and publish the success rate of those heading south so players can make informed decisions. Rourke will likel...

Finally!

I think the lesson here is, when you lose the battle in the trenches, you lose the game. And the Lions definitely lost that battle.

* Can we talk about the elephant in the room no one seems to want to talk about? Lucky's production. Granted, he may still be suffering the lingering effects of a hamstring but that's another problem. An inability to stay healthy. I still want to see more of Terry Williams at WR or packages. DH :co...
