There doesn’t seem to be any holes open for Harris on handoffs and they aren’t finding him out of the backfield either. It was the second game in a row that the young star of Lions has been held in check for the most part by the opposition. Some anxious times are coming for the Lions and their fans in the next two weeks.Īs mentioned above, Harris was visibly frustrated at times in this game. If Travis Lulay doesn’t throw again this week, do we start to get concerned that this injury is more serious than the team is letting on? With two weeks before the Western final the Lions would like to get Lulay some work, and it would be a month before he had any snaps if he doesn’t play until then.

It will be an interesting week at Lions practice.

The Lions offence was clearly out of synch most of the night and it was mainly because the offensive line had no answer for the Calgary pass rush all night long.

If that was a preview of what life might be like on the offensive line without Angus Reid as the general, someone find me an anti-aging machine, stat. Turnovers and penalties (the Lions took the first 10 of the game) also contributed to the poor field position for the Lions on a night where pretty much anything that could go wrong did. The Lions are giving up too much field position of late because of a poor kicking game. I honestly wouldn’t mind seeing Hugh O’Neill dress for the Saskatchewan game because you may as well see what you have in him with live bullets flying. Paul McCallum continues to struggle punting the football, and that has to be a concern as the playoffs approach. The Lions started the game by giving the Stamps a short field, an occurrence that was frequent on the night. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.
