Leone misses the extra point. He's now less than 75% for the year. The Lions are 83% on 2-point converts.

Insane that he hasn't been benched yet or the Lions just don't go for 2 after every touchdown. What a gong show his converts have become. So many just poorly hit.

Memo to Tedford: Forget the convert and go for 2 after a touchdown

Argos have a place kicker learning how to punt. Lions should be coming with a block

Seriously. This is not only embarrassing it could cost us down the road (or even in this game).

He should be forced to spend an entire practice just kicking one after another. Its obviously some mental block.

Milanovich wasted a challenge on an obvious PI call.

Re: Lions @ Argos, Oct 30, Preview, Ricky Ray to Start

DH :cool:
Confusing me there David. Bombers forfeited their pick which means they don't have one. Riders locked up first. Only thing to be decided is whether BC or Montreal drafts 2nd. As best as I can tell right now BC would as they are tied in points and Montreal won the season series by a single point in the head-to-head which was split 1-1. Montreal scored 39 points, Lions 38.

Who cares whether we pick 2nd or 3rd. Buono will probably pick someone that nobody has ever heard of

Lions should go for 2 on every convert. If they are successful only 40% of the time it would work out better than kicking a single with Leone's success rate.

What a dumb decision to receive a kickoff after the Argo FG. The Lions start at their own 16.

Shocking how many times the Lions have made that decision and not got back to the 35, never mind penalties too.
