Does Buono have input? How about Lulay? What kind of freedom does he have?
I just cannot believe how predictable, stale and unimaginative the play-calling has been.
Going horizontal all the time in the air, going straight up the middle on the rare run.
It boggles my mind how bad it is.
Lulay looks out of sync,

Lions should consider themselves very fortunate to be trailing only by 14 points.

:dizzy: Unbelieveable not ready to play, Lulay overshooting receivers, absolutely no running game. Chapedelaine has to go. Very disapointing to watch this team have the same start each game. Clearly being outcoached and to this point outplayed. 14 pts at this point looks like 28..

Who last week was lamenting the Defense and not the Offense.

I think the Lion have 7 yards on O.

I think Messam might have been over downgraded when Wally let him go. In other words Wally did more of a smear than needed (a la Joe Smith, Kruck, Stith, Burratto etc). Basically he felt with Lee gone no Canadian RBs so let him go.

Can we just use the toilet paper symbol going forward instead of 100s of reposts that Chap must be fired....just seems easier

Half is not over yet...this reminds me of early last season when the offence looked clueless.

7 total yds of offence

Can we get one thing straight about Kruk?
Kruk was not let go or fired or traded, he simply wasn't re-signed when his contract expired.

Remember everyone that the Lions have been slow out of the gate all season, so don't pa.....wait, we lost those games you say? Oh never mind.

Does anyone think that Stubler leaving has hurt the Lions/helped the Eskimos?

They looked clueless and no confidence on the Gore play. Not to forget it was so clear that play was coming.
