Re: Lions at Bombers August 1, 2024

This game is the very flower of why I have misgivings about this team. This is not the performance you expect from a top tier team. You expect the Bombers to be tough at home but the Lions havn't done a thing. And this is the knock on this team. They have an opportunity to keep the top spot in the west after a weeks rest, team healthy and they absolutely crap the bed. Really good teams finds ways to make things work. This team has a bad habit of not showing up when it matters.
Tell me how long must a fan be strong? Ans. Always.

The offense is so LAME, that the D is forced into mistakes. We've been punching above our weight all season which is in indictment against the CFL as a whole.

Gotta hand it to the Bombers. They watched film and adjusted their game plan to take away our offensive tendencies and are patient on offense nickel and dining our conservative D

Rubber match should be interesting. Lions take pride and all that.

Dolegala would be worse. Gotta stick with VA and hope for a big play.

Last week the Lions couldn't fall on a fumble and kick a FG to win. This week the offense can't even get a first down.
Lions of 2024 looking like Lions of 2022,2023.....

Haunting familiar to last season. A really bad night for organization and what they are supposedly building towards the last 3 years

This is looking yet again very much a Rick Campbell coached team. Inconsistent, unreliable, unprepared, and ill-disciplined.

I wonder how long a leaah Campbell is on from Doman. 2 consecutive losses becomes 3, 4, one win in five I think it gets yanked.

Ownership is to blame. Fill the stadium by hiring pre game musical acts. Spend the money on athletic talent and competent coaching. I'm so unimpressed
