Which is why we can't afford to sit a guy like Johnny Sears.

Kuale is a liability. Costs us with his undisciplined play. Problem is I did not see a lot out of Krohmah today was out of position and did not seem quick enough. We need a quick hard hitting bigger body in the middle. Someone who has a nose for the football and is always around the play. Wild is the closest we have, just not quite big enough.

I think someone just implied that Messam is a good running back, better duck.

Plugin a jumbo tackle and real MLB'er and problem solved. If Etch is going to be so inflexible then O'Shea needs to step in.

That I don't recall Henoc being dragged half way done the field after first contact.

I still remember the days when guys like Herb Grey, Phil Minnick, etc. would stuff legends like George Reed, Earl "Earthquake' Lunsford, Lovell Coleman, George Dixon, etc.
As for a previous poster stating Zack Anderson was a big guy - he sure got swallowed up big-time in Benny Heenan's basket. Looked pretty small and ineffective against a monster like Heenan.
I think Kromah and Kuale might be solid for the first half Sunday. Then who knows?

I dont think its just a matter of wrapping up anymore... I saw some of our guys being dragged for close to 5 yards, and everyone else getting pushed around.
 
It's time Etchevary stopped being so damn Stubborn and played 2 LBers and a Nose Tackle. 
 
Wouldn't Mind seeing Turner at End more either... He did a pretty darn good job... 

Two small men with good hearts being traded for each other.
Suber is a poor man's Richie Hall - Hall was small but fairly effective over his career. Suber is enthusiastic but too often found himself in chase positon. Perhaps a product of working behind suspect d-lines.
Thaddeus doesn't really fit the profile of what the Bombers need most. A heavy set killer who can push back strong o-line blockers and create mayhem in the opponent's backfield (ie. Doug Brown type, Bill Baker, that guy who breaks arms in BC)
Even our best bullrushing d-lineman Zach Anderson was pretty much controlled and over-powered by Bigboy Heenan. .... so I suspect Gibson is one of those guys who rarely takes the bull route to the QB - more of a juke 'n jagger like O'Dell Willis. Trouble is by the time this type of guy takes his circuitious route to the QB too much time has elapsed and most CFL QBs have released the pigskin by the time a perimeter guy arrives.

You're on the road you take the points. etch and marcel are what we thought they were, very mediocre coordinators.

You obviously weren't alive in the 1980's. Our parents didn't buy us Bomber jersies back in those days. They were too busy spending all of their money on cocaine.

Jim Bell is a great guy but I'm not going to pretend that I don't think Wade Miller is improving things in the organization. I don't know if I like this decision but if we're truly being honest with ourselves, it takes more than just being a nice guy to earn your keep.

Need a backer to actually standup or knock down a running back.....watching Dunn and Wild doing their superball impression, last week was embarrassing,,,,,

The jersey above was a fake.  I'm certain these were the jerseys unveiled by the Argos last night.
 

 

yeah it's not his speed that's the problem, in fact I am shocked he's as fast as he is with his head so far up his ass. 

Turnovers or not, this team has no ground game and can't stop the run when a team actually commits to running the ball against them......

When you rush more defenders than you have blockers you can't blame it on the oline but when they are only rushing 4 or 3 and still owning you, it's the olines fault. Montreal was sending the house, Edmonton wasn't. Edmonton's front 4 was just too good for our starting 5, but this shouldn't have come as a surprise to the Bomber coaches should it? I'd take Chris Jones traditional 43 defence over anyone else in the league, he's the best and it showed.

lol, let's hope the VCR on it still works....

Willy's post game comments on CJOB were that Edmonton's defence did some things they hadn't seen and weren't prepared for, sounded confused to me and looked that way too when he didn't know where to go with the ball when he had time. Looked to me like Willy had the yips.

JHC, I thought for sure the Bombers would come out in the second half and move the pocket but no.....just the same old drop back and get killed every play, complete bush league by MB.

It looked like Dinwiddie was getting the better of Marcel in the second half until that game winning drive, that was just clutch.

You are going to need more than 4 RB's for the game bluto, they will be exhausted by the half.

I think what they are suggesting is that there were 44 OTHER players who stuck it out to the bitter end and were 1 Mike Bishop pick away from hosting the ESF, those guys were the professionals, not the quiters.

11 DB's on the 46 man roster....time for MO to tell Etch to get a grip.
