The Riders are ripe for the picking but Lulay is such a meh QB. He's like the Matt Cassel of the CFL just not going to win games for you only manage them.

Durant is seriously ######ed. The guy is incredibly unclutch.

This is ridiculous. Durant lucks out to the 15 yard line and then throws it away.

Damn I made a mistake on my proline ticket and accidentally picked the Riders when I meant to pick the Lions.
Hopefully this turns out to be a good mistake and doesn't bite me in the ass.

The "13th man ticket"
Hopefully it comes through for you puckluck, honestly I think the Stamps would rather play the Riders in Calgary than the Lions.

Buono playing Wally-ball again. You have to go for the win when you have the best kicker in the league. What a chicken call with only 8 seconds left in the half.

You have a 40 some year old kicker who's in worse shape than anyone else in the CFL. No chance he's kicking a 52 yard field goal in these conditions, the risk on that is pretty high for a good return.

It was too long. The kicker is the best but he's old. Why risk a Riders return for a TD when the Riders have done nothing up to this point?
Up 9 on the road is good enough

He's been making that kick all year and there was no wind. Teams usually don't get rewarded for calls like this and I wouldn't be surprised to see the Riders come back and win the game by 3 points or less. You have a much better chance of making the field goal than the return coming back for 7 points and with no time on the clock it would have to go in the end zone for the Riders to get points.

Maybe true but a TD return off a miss FG is quite common because the offense has about 6 fat guys on the field. And that would put the Riders right back into the game. 9 and 12 isn't that much of a difference anyways, still 2 possessions.
I like the call, but as you all know, I'm super conservative!

Buono said much the same thing in an interview. Didn't want to risk missing from that distance and have the Riders return it for a TD.

You don't get rewarded for professional sports for playing conservative. It was the wrong call and now the game will likely be out of reach for the Lions. The Stamps have learned the hard way that you have to bury the Riders when you have the opportunity and now the Lions are learning the hard way as well.
