Riders vs. Lions Game Thread

[Blitz]

What absolute crap....chinzy call on Wilson..who was being held. We had the Riders shut down twice on the drive...and we had won the game on downs...I expected a penalty of some sort against us.....

What poise out of the pocket by DeMarco....and bullet throws..

[TheLionKing]

No turnovers please

[Blitz]

Here is is....42 yard attempt by McCallum...fingers crossed

[Spud387]

Wow, what a finish. Almost lost because of a ridiculous rouging the passer.

Good job Demarco

[Blitz]

What a comeback by our Leos and DeMarco was so cool in that situation...impressive....

[TheLionKing]

WE WIN , WE WIN !!!!!

Impressive debut by the little General out there in a very hostile environment.

[Toppy Vann]

It wasn't pretty but a W.

Make the 3 easy INTs and this game might have been very different.

Not sure of the call on Wilson.... Looked dodgy much like the call against the Stamps to cause them to lose.

Demarco was fine when it counted but maybe a second half sit out and watch a few plays might have fired him up sooner.

Marsh picked a bad time to not make a decent tackle as he usually does.

Good knockdowns by the front guys today.

Not sure why the Lions can't use Harris better. Cornish would look bad in a BC uniform if he got Harris touches.

I think the problem the officials had with the Wilson penalty was that the contact was high up around the head.

Brutal non-review on the Garrett touchdown. He did not survive contact. I thought every "touchdown" was reviewed?


DH

Not really sure how that works on a coffin corner type play. I think it was probably good but sure would've liked a review or at least a definitive camera angle.

Interestingly, the Washington Redskins of that other league, appeared to score a touchdown much like the Garrett td and it was disallowed.

The Garrett TD play was explained by the TSN crew: The ball was caught on the field of play and as soon as the ball broke the plain of the goal line the play is over so in this case there is no "surviving contact with the ground".

Good job Demarco

AND, the Rider slot was 2 yards offside on that same play!

Which is notable because on most plays they're only one yard offside.

[Lions4ever]

is it just me or is a SK receiver offside on nearly every play?

It's been like that since the days of Ray Elgaard

True, but it makes the league look amateur. The Commissioner should be on top of the officials about this. Reflects poorly.

TWO uprights in one game?

LIke the golfer who always hits the same tree on hole number x.

I'm very familiar with this.
