And still more than 10 mins in the 4th. I think we will see a lot of Al 3rd stringers now. 2nd stringers are too valuable to risk in this game for the Als

This is definitely the worst playoff game I have watched since Wally took over back in 2003.

It should be a Viking funeral vessel with all the whacks it has gotten.

MLF, this team has quit on the coahes, just look at the last two regular season games followed up by this showing. They know that they have to play the purrfect game, and when that didn't happen, it was over.

Yep. It started with penalties and by the end of the 2nd Q. the game was lost. Als came out in the 3rd and didn't look back.

Ouch, what a beat down. Not the way this season was supposed to play out. If I'm not mistaken at the start of the season Vegas odds makers pegged the Lions as most likely to win the cup this year. Not so much as it turns out. Damn.

What happens in Vega really does stay in Vegas apparently.

How about Jaques Chapdelaine, he is a former offensive cooridnator, should give a hometown discount, and is familiar with players.

I knew we would lose but I didn't think it would be even worse than our last playoff trip there in 2009. 47 point margin. Is that an ESF record?
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

That would be a very smart move!
