Why would these 2 teams wear orange and red? Like really?

My wife wholeheartedly agrees with you.

Hunter Steward’s low snaps are causing trouble for Apodaca. They throw off his timing and reads.

Seems to be a lot of slipping and sliding by the Lions out there.

The Special Teams appear to have improved. Penalties are few which is nice.

Was the TSN broadcast piped into the concourse last year? My memory fails me.

Yep, they should just stick with him at tackle or guard.

They’re all backups now but Keon Lyn was beaten deep three times as starting safety. Carson Ketter played the second quarter.

Both teams are playinng a lot of basic zone defence. I’ve only seen one blitz, and that was on a Calgary running play.

The B.C. first and second-team O-lines are playing well, other than the one time Andrew Peirson was beaten for a sack that was negated by penalty, and the low snaps by Hunter Steward, which also caused problems in training camp. Brett Boyko was solid at right tackle in the second quarter. David Foucault played well at right tackle and left guard. David Knevel didn’t play in the first half.

Caching the game on the radio in Edmonton. Hearing the TSN crew gush over Reilly makes me miss him.

I hope Jackson uses him better and doesn't try to restrict him into a pocket-passer like what Coach Maas tried to do over here.

Agreed. Black pants with orange socks. The tops and helmet are awesome though. They just need to get the bottom sorted.

Are they seriously thinking of using Steward at centre?

Thought I was the only one who hated the orange pants. Too much orange. White or grey, circa 1977 works for me!
