PistolPete13 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 After the stupid decision to not kick a field goal with about 10 minutes to go, I turned it off. Lions we’re playing like hot garbage against one of the worst teams in the league, and coach was mentally checking out, so…….. Glad to see that the boys found a way to get it done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bounce000 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I wonder how executives feel about the status of the league when only 3 of the 9 teams have an above 0.500 record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnstorm Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 A not so common Friday evening game this week. BC Lions at Edmonton Elks 6:30 pst start. Lions are 9-4 (.692) with 350 points for and 279 against. Elk are 4-10 (.286) with 380 points for and 365 against. Lions can clinch a playoff spot with a victory. Time for the Lions to feast on some tasty elk meat. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnstorm Posted September 23, 2023 Author Share Posted September 23, 2023 BC and Winnipeg both sitting at 10 and 4 and playoff bound. Next week sees Winnipeg vs Toronto and BC plays the Roughriders. Great opportunity to move into 1st in the west and roll it home from there. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betts is a beauty! Biggest hole in Adam's' game is interceptions. If he could have cleaned those up earlier in his career, he'd be well on his way to a borderline hall of famer. https://www.statscrew.com/football/stats/p-adamsver002#google_vignette "Vernon Adams has played from 2016 to 2023 during his career with the BC Lions, Montreal Alouettes and Saskatchewan Roughriders.

This is what I worry about vs the Bombers, or Argo’s come playoff time. I like how he saw openers when his receivers were covered, and rushed to get the yardage. He cleans up the turnovers, the postseason will be fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RupertKBD Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Game was closer than we would have liked, but a win is a win... I'm actually happy the Elks as doing better now. The losing streak was becoming a bit of a joke that reflected poorly on the entire league, IMO... Aside from that, I like seeing a Canadian QB step up and do what his American predecessor couldn't. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
