This is embarrassing...

Mike Benevides game plan needs a kick in the nuts at half time,

Eight caries a hundred and fifty yards against...that is embarrassing

Is Jarious bipolar if not why is acting like he is?

I'm sorry!

Why is it I have to embarrass this team into owning up to their potential?

Clermont, Simon both dropping touchdown balls in the end of the 2nd half...

PS... back away from the key board at times like this...lol.

You have to give credit to the Als.... they came out running and no doubt caught the Lions by surprise. I wish the Lions had come out like that establishing a mix of run plays and then going downfield. This game is never over in the first half.

The Als got good blocking too and the effort by the D was what the TV said Benevides was on about after those runs. He blew by some guys fairly close although some great holding up by the Als gave him time.

I'm sorry Toppy but the Leos did not do their home work...

With so many wins under their belt at home vs Montreal, the Lions should have known the Als would come gunning for them tonight.

Let's hope they can pull it out, but it all depends whether than can make the half time adjustments.

More effort will help, yes!!! Re-focus and play like it is a new game and get the score back even.

Clermont dropped a TD catch? I don't think so! Are you talking about the one handed try while being double teamed? I'm pretty sure that wasn't anywhere near the endzone.

Simon's drop wasn't in the endzone either.

Thanks to you, who can see the changes in their primordial state, and know the implications thereof.

.....ummmm........Keith........are you forgetting your signature statement?

Remain calm and confident that true champions always hold fast their composure and in that, confidence in themselves no matter what the odds will always carry the day in the end.

In his post game comments to Ball and Caravatta when questioned about how easily the Als ran the ball early Wally stated that they studied Montreal's tendencies in the previous 4 games and pushing a running attack was not one of them. Since the Als prefered the aerial attack BC's prep and game plan focused on defending the pass. The Als crossed them up with the ground game.

Why don't you try to be more like your signature, and less like you're reading for the lead in The Tempest.

* edit * Looks like Hambone beat me to it, but it still remains good advice.

We are 3 & 2 and are ecstatic for the win!!!

Ironically my name is also Dale :rockin: But I did want to point out (though I'm sure it won't be a welcome observation) that post game Paris Jackson's comments were an echo of Rider players comments re: playing a whole 60 minutes. Of course if that were the case and the Leo's would be blowing teams out, not coming from behind to win. That being said, I am NOT complaining! A win is a win and I'll take it!! Special thanks to Ian Smart for the TD that got things turning around for us!

GO LIONS!! :beer:

Lions needs to be a more discipline team IMO. Lions were caught off guard by the Als running attack. Cavillo neutralized the Lions pass rush by throwing short.

BC was caught off guard early but as we saw , they made adjustments and the Als did have to fight till the end just to lose anyway. The thing about the Als new coach , no one yet knows to much about him and he brings many new things to the game that catches other teams off guard . This will be short lived because with every game the Als need to show more of themselves.
