Our tackles are playing on a wooden leg. JHR and Randolph have been a pair of sieves. What else is going to go wrong? Love Wally's facial reaction. Loser.

If it takes a 1-17 season to rid of Chapdelaine so be it. It's totally pathetic :bang:

We are losing huge now, and it scares me to say it, but I can see the Lions going 1 and 17 this year. To win a game, they actually have to come and play as a TEAM...and that they are not doing.

I'm sure that that last tackle helped Jarious's shoulder.

That was a bounce, just as much as Geroy's was.

Anyone still believe aft er that last play on O that the Lions schemes aren't an issue?

No. Wally and Chappy will keep telling each other it is players.

Cuts will continue until the losing stops.

Nope, nice change, not that it matters any more.

I honestly think Chap was kept because it was a short week, I really can't see him making it to next week. 2007 Edmonton O coordinator, Edmonton fails to make the playoffs and he is fired. 2008 Back with the Lions Offense is terrible, 2009 offense struggles some more, 2010.........we all know the story. Someone hire Jay Prepchuck for G*& sake, maybe he can run the freaking O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How do you let the O-Line become the weakest unit on your team?!?!?... IMO 40 percent of a GM's energy should be to make the O-Line as good as possible.
Pathetic
-Believes in building from the trenches outwards. A great O-Line and D-Line guarantees an above average team.
-A coach that has to give a motivational pregame speech is probably a coach that is insecure about his game plan.
