Congratulation to the boys in Honolulu Blue. Year 66 of rebuilding pays dividends. Winning Sunday’s Viking’s game was a combination of events starting with Viking’s mistakes. Even with their charity our Lions committed three really ‘dumb’ penalties approaching game’s end. Two delay of game and one offside penalties were totally beyond belief. Failure all around almost snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
Based on time of possession, this game should have been a ‘blow-out’. However, dumb penalties and catastrophic lack of pass defense stuck out like a ‘sore thumb’. If you allow a fourth string QB to pass for over 400 yards, don’t even consider was a semi competent QB could achieve.
But here we are with a secure invite to participate in post season. Advancement in the playoffs is contingent on which Lion’s team shows up. Jekyll or Hyde?
