But, Rhymes didn't give up on the play... he was still refusing to go down... the whistle wasn't blown, so BA forced him down... and then he whines like a little baby. What did he expect, to be cradled and coddled?

Mostly a second string OL, inexperienced QB throws for 325 yards & we lose by 8 points. D could have been better stopping Butler, ST needs to tighten up. But there's a whole lot to like about this game.

Our backups gave BC all they could handle. A w in the moral victory column

Half our special teams tackles are by a long snapper, a kicker and a right tackle. That's a bad special teams half.

Honestly if BA let's up Rhymes probably finds some fight in him to try and get away. Whistle hadn't gone, he's gotta expect the db to finish the tackle. Don't be a puss.

Our backers blitz a ton. Thought our DL looked pretty stout, backers weren't ready to clean up. Key to defending zone run is not run into the wash, force the line to be mobile opening up the gaps for the first wave to break their blocks and get a shot at the back. Clements is brutal at this, just runs right into the pile, makes it easy to block up and gives tons of space to cut back/run counters. Darby made a couple of poor reads too that opened up huge lanes, especially on the one big run. Bighill filled the last gap on the play side to force the back across field but Darby followed Bighill into the gap instead of being patient and cleaning up. Love that the 3down doofus insists that tackle was after the whistle. Clearly was not. Problem on that play was Rhymes quit immediately at the pop and then left himself prone for the finish. Extremely lazy play by Rhymes and he paid for it. Should be trying to fight himself. All I'll say about trying to fight guys post-game is that you have 60 minutes to get that violence out on the field. If you have the energy to try to go at someone post-game you're doing it wrong.

BA and the rest of the squad to Busted Rhymes:

Haven't seen this anywhere else but apparently Rhymes tried to go after BA post-game according to 3DN. "Unfortunately, the press box conversation after the game was that Rhymes felt well enough to cross the hallway to the Bombers’ locker room and attempt a confrontation with the safety — the second time the Lions have been accused of that type of behaviour this year." https://3downnation.com/2022/10/16/lions-show-that-its-dangerous-to-terry-and-eight-other-thoughts-on-b-c-beating-the-bombers/

Lol what a dumb rule. That's like in Trailer Park boys when they dragged patio furniture to the curb. "It's not stealing it's garbage" just like that rule. Garbage.

Try an onside kick. Same field position.

Haha what a bunch of passes. Hope BA pops him again next game.

Our kicker makes his kicks and we win. I'd be concerned if I'm BC. Tsn acting like the lions just won the cup is interesting.

Brown threw 5 TD passes, and yet we still lost.....

His throw on the runs while looking off a defender is what caught my attention.

What a puss. Hopefully he is looking for BA every time from here on out. Nice to have a guy like that back in the middle of the D. Felt like the Bombers D stepped up the physicality a lot in the 2nd half. Get some bodies back and they can go back to grinding teams down over the course of a game.

Also have to give credit to Dru Brown. If he has our full offense (o line, Brady) for a full game then we probably win. He was far from perfect, obviously. But watching film and making throws when the bullets are flying is a huge difference. He only gets better with playing time.

and I will fight to the death that the PI they reviewed was complete horseshit. Ball so underthrown the receiver has to go back through the DB to even be in the same area code, but uh oh, naughty DB, that's interference. Complete horseshit even if technically it's contact on a receiver. uncatchable ball.

They should really change that rule. It kinda punishes kickers for managing to have the ball settle in the field of play near the sideline, which sometimes is what you want.

Special teams gets a big F tonight

Well we know if ZC goes down we not dead in water Think we found that new DB in Lawrence BA looks back in groove

Witt is a lot sturdier in pass pro.

Great ball there...was a bit scared with Brown throwing off back foot kind of falling backward there. He's with the wind this quarter.

Nodding to our bench was hilarious

Rhymes pushing off and still can't get ball. Two hand shove on numbers on back of DB's jersey...should call that crap.

Bad toss. Not a bad showing for the kid though

Keep brown. He's our future.

Not sure why we never play Cooper or Cole on D. Even tonight. Maruo sometimes plays kind of a 3-4 rush LB when we go 30 front, but yeah we need that rotation to save some energy for the DL.

This kick coverage is a joke...

Hard for BC believe that a receiver could make that adjustment to the ball without shoving the DB.

I don't mind Dru at all,you can tell he needs the reps but it's obviously tough when you've got the MVP in front of you. These are good reps that will only benefit Dru and Co.

Teams have been awful. Giving bc everything and their O doing **** all save for drawing a lame assed PI on a brutally underthrown ball. Throw in a pick 6 by a young qb making a throw he shouldn't have and here we are . Also sick of tsn just ignoring that our top db is sitting this one out too which shuffled everyone around in the backfield plus 2 different outside linebackers

I’ll say this now .. backups or not I ******* hate giving a team confidence going into the post season. And our run defence is still a total **** show.

Just a few inches short. I know how he feels 🤣🤣

Should give McCrae some tailback looks here. Augustine should be our 3rd string.

Good learning experience for brown

Lawrence making it difficult to take him out of the lineup

Parker might be a SAM eventually. Aggressive tackler.

Someone tell tsn there's a **** ton of starters not playing on D also.

Oh God- not a Farhan propaganda piece

Sayles has steadily improved all year

Good first drive to get the jitters out

But does it also double as a crutch like Cfs does? I have a body like Dobson… when he was drafted. But I can’t dunk.

Honestly that’s better than some qbs we’ve had in the last 15 ish years lol

Omg the elks are gonna lose lol Wow…… just wow. I can’t see them beating BC next week so it might not be until summer of 2023 before they win another home game…

I know Brown is under contract for next year but this could be the game that determines how many suitors will be on his doorstep for a trade this off season.

With your posting style, the last guy you should criticize here is Booch. Unreal. You love arguing & stirring the pot with everyone. So you were called a name. Get over it. Ever thought that your arguing is becoming so damed annoying.

Can we at least agree that if Rourke's foot comes off playing the Bombers, then it's clear that they rushed his recovery a bit?
