Lions vs. Als Game Thread

eliminate the mental mistakes

nice deductive reasoning LionKing, as our mental discipline really exposed us as some sort of creadible deficiency (in a game that we should have been like a predator laying in the weeds last night, waiting for the kill).

The general state of the Leos conditioning was a factor, but the fulcrum upon which the game turned against them was their lost of mental composure.

Very exciting game at the end. The should permit the refs to tell the players they are lined up offside. Anything to prevent chintzy penalties as there are so many flags in the game already.

Disagree , refs aren't babay sitters . Players should know where they are lined up , especially at the goal line.

Anybody else still think that we don't need Joe Smith on this team?

I like Joe Smith, but I'm not sure he would have made any difference in that situation.
Montreal was getting unbelievable penetration. Both Lumbala and Logan were swarmed as soon as they were handed the ball, and Pierce couldn't find an offensive lineman to
run behind when he tried to sneak it in. In that situation, Montreal's defence wanted it
more than our offensive line did.

Joe wouldn't have fumbled, and he sure showed what he could do on short yardage against the Als last time he played against them. Joe is money from the stripe, no offence to Lumbala or Logan, but they are not as good in short yardage as Joe is.
