September 4, 201411 yr @Wpg_BlueBombers: #Bombers add defensive linemen Willie Moseley and Marvin Booker to practice roster. Both internationals.
September 4, 201411 yr I hope Booker gives a QB the axe kick and celebrates with a spinaroonie. I'd buy his jersey immediately.
September 4, 201411 yr I'm not sure about Moseley, but the other two d-linemen recently signed are defensive ends and it seems to me that our problems on our line are in the middle, not the ends. I wonder what the thinking is behind these signings.
September 4, 201411 yr I hope these additions aren't more of the same body types that fit Etch's wish list and scheme. Teams successful against the inside run game have at least one hulking, bruising inside DT as a run stopper who can also collapse the pocket. This team currently is undersized on defence.

I wonder what the thinking is behind these signings. Nope not the case. Unless you mistakenly think the run stopping problems are a personnel issue and not a scheme issue.

Then you're wrong. We had the same defensive tackles with Tim Burke and run stopping wasn't a huge area of concern.
September 4, 201411 yr Kirk Penton @PentonKirk New defensive end Marvin Booker and right tackle Cordaro Howard need to be separated after a play. #Bombers Like him already...

September 4, 201411 yr Scheme and personnel.....you can decide the percentage of each that is contributing to the lack of a run defence.
September 4, 201411 yr be sweet if booker got 5 sacks in a game, then did the 5x 5x 5x 5x 5x shtick after the game talking to irving.

September 4, 201411 yr Moseley is versatile and can play multiple position on the D.. he played DE and LB (inside and outside) in college. I remember most if us thought he would make the roster instead of Frazer after TC.
September 5, 201411 yr 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?
September 5, 201411 yr I think this will be the game that Kromah will steal a spot. Last time, he played backup of the Wild man who got 14 tackles that game (vs Als). With Wild being out this week he will get all the chances to make his play.

We had the same defensive tackles with Tim Burke and run stopping wasn't a huge area of concern. Henoc made like 100 tackles, helps to have a big body in the middle.

Except that Turner was matched up against Heenan a fair bit more than Anderson...

And Ian Wild has 47 tackles in half a season, what exactly is your point?
