14 point swing on special teams errors by the Lions. That's the game so far.

a couple of nice directional punts by PM, but otherwise our special teams are killing us today.

Well, perhaps that'll make the braintrust take ST a bit more seriously, no?

Chuck McMann is working hard on STs. But it ain't working. McCallum has had his head up his butt this year. Kick coverage has been poor. Brain farts by Brown.

Lulay has been somewhat better today I think.

Neither team any ground game to speak of.

Yes the STs have made the difference. I would feel like kicking Paul McCallum in the butt except he has been money for us since 2006.

We might have needed this game. Back down to earth. Get the heads out of the clouds. Can't just show up, and expect to win all the time. The other teams want to win also.

Just heard that... palliative care is a one-way ticket. My best wishes to his friends and family. For a guy who was only with the Lions for 2.4 seasons, he certainly made an impression.

Lions need a kick in the ass, this is not acceptable, they need to be better I hope this tunes them in, irregardless of the reffing in the game.

Great TD drive by the Lions. That's how champions respond.

Touchdown. There's still life in the Lions. Defence now has to stop the Riders
