It is these things that the Lion coaches need to manage better much like RGM getting away with the poor ball handling... His carrying of the ball on kicks is a joke... disgraceful for a pro as this will cost BC sometime.
Toppy, blaming the coaches for Buck getting injured seems like a major case of transfering blame. They can only control so much. If it is Buck's job to not get hurt, shouldn't he take the blame?

Well we did have the ball on the Argo's 52, now we are back on our own 36, a loss of 22 instead. Plus a near heart attack for Wally on the sidelines.

Mallet looked to be trying to avoid contact on that short yardage play.

I know he is out of favour, but I think Miles is our weakest DB.

I am also aware of the recovery rate for those who fall out of favour.

Anyone catch the penalty??

TSN talking heads too busy yapping and not telling us about the play.
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

RGM, that play is designed to take advantage of your speed to the outside, don't turn back into the defenders.
