Mathews is listed on the CFL injury report as having a head injury. He may be in concession protocol but that would likely not be the same injury that caused him to miss time in the opening weeks of training camp.

Weather forecast for Calgary tonight looks excellent--no smoke, light winds (hope that helps Yamasaki), low humidity (the weekend will be a different story).

They need to utilize the play action with Rourke, give this kid some time. Dont remember seeing a single qb scramble last game - that'll open up the run. Defense will be fine.

Michael Reilly will start at QB, according to Giulio Caravatta and Bob Marjanovich on the Lions’ radio broadcast.

God damn it all to hell! All the talk this week was about Nathan Rourke starting . And just yesterday morning the Lions posted a depth chart with Rourke as the starter. I'm now furious at both the Lions and the fact that I dozed off in the armchair and turned on the radio too late to modify my roster. I only learned of the switch at 6:27 Vancouver time and I didn't want to make changes for fear I'd be shut out and left with a blank spot or even two in my roster. And I was so hoping that all my disastrous picks this year would be due to decision making mistakes instead of some foul up. DAMN!!!

:sigh:

The Lions have been clear all along that Reilly’s arm is getting better and that if he feels well enough to play, he will, even though he hasn’t practised. I would expect both QBs to see action. And I would lay off betting on one or the other seeing the most action.

He missed two kicks last week, can't you already say he has lost the team a game.
