Not sure why McCallum hesitated there? This is some scary field position for the Riders right now

Not a memorable set of decisions on that play sequence, by anyone. They'll be lucky to get away with giving up just 3.

Not a fan of Bell's coverage so far.

Wish our Oline was healthier, and Travis needs to sharpen up this is looking pretty sloppy for a so called elite offence.

Bad decision by Lulay trying to force a pass into double coverage

Well the season is still unfolding as it has started. The Riders came to play. The Lions still not hitting on all cylinders. Wes Dressler still looking awesome. And it is anybody's game.

Any injury update on Kierrie Johnson? They could use his speed.

Adversity. Holding calls against. No holding calls for. Scattershot throws by Lulay. Injury to Johnson. Riders playing all out against last year's Grey Cup champion. Gheezus, I don't envy Mike Benevides.

Well, if we can pull this one out, that is the mark of a championship team.
