The only silver lining is that it's going to easy to decide which coaches and players deserve to be back next season.

Reilly is taking short yardage gamblers because the Lions won't dress that young 3rd QB and give him some experience in a game.

Suitor speaking of Carter not getting a pass caught more than 20 yds downfield ignores the fact that he tried to 1 hand it in as if he had been there to be under he would have had to be OB.

carter took a knee to the head..

TSN showed it but suitor and cuthbert ignored it.

You can clearly see the knee from the goal side as 89 was trying to catch it.

The Lions are a badly coached team. The offensive line is in a state of constant confusion and the running back can’t recognize a blitz.

This has gotta be the #1 priority. 7 sacks while playing 3 Americans on the oline? It's a miracle that Reilly is still standing.

One of the worst BC Lions teams to watch that I've ever seen.

Work in progress. Bombers D Line get Knockdowns as they back off and not engage. BC OLineman had to move up on them and pummel them.

Fire Claybrooks now? No way he's the coach next year, so why wait?

At this point it doesn't matter who you replace him with. Hervey should be uncomfortable as well.

Coaching cap and the huge cost says it'd not happen.

But they must fix STs coaching AND personnel.

You might not fire any coach but the GM and HC should be looking to re-align duties on the staff.
