#Bombers defensive tackle @ZachAnderson44 has suffered a torn ACL and will miss the remainder of the season.

Huge blow. Crazy it was his brother who caused it (accidentally of course).

Too bad he was turning into a force in the middle with Turner

Quite simple, we just simply plug another force in there and we're good to go ... what? It works for the Riders QB situation Too bad for Zach in all seriousness though ...

For cripes sake. At practice as well. Seems we can't catch a break this year. Just too many gawdamned injuries. If we can get past the leos and take our break, maybe we can bring someone in. Bloody hell.

barf

 

freaking ridiculous.

Injuries for our team definitely seem to have mounted up

That sucks.  Good luck to him in his rehab.

This hurts... a lot... I've said it before, I think Zach is our best D-lineman...

 

All the best to him in his recovery...

FUUUUUUCCKKK!!!! Come on football gods! Help us out here!!

Time for a quick fix.  Somebody has to be available.

 

JT Gilmore

Kenny Mainor

Michael McAdoo

JD Griggs

If not JT Gilmore, I would like them to bring Keron Williams. He played both DT and DE.

Doug Brown cmon down.

I'll take a DL over the starting qb being out for the year... Dline is a place that should be easy to replace.

That sucks. I hate hearing about guys getting hurt. Hope he makes a full and complete recovery.

totally agree, just sucks that it's anderson who went down. Guy has a lot of heart and never seems to let up

That's a huge loss, No to mainor and Griggs, they are defensive ends as is mcadoo isn't he? Enough Recycling guys really..

 

Gilmore might make some sense, Keron Williams too but.. i doubt those guys could step in immediately. Gotta go with what we have right now and during the bye week, perhaps talk to Hamilton about a trade.  They have lots and lots of DL. 

Walters can't afford to stand pat, he needs to bring in at least two prospects in case there is another injury along the D-line.  Luckily he's got a buy week to do it in.

There is nothing Walters can really do right now though, we play saturday, our bye week isn't until next week. Can't bring a guy off the streets today and have him play 2 days from now. 

 

During the bye week, sure, exhaust all your options but reality is right now today thursday, we gotta go with what we got. 

 

The one thing i'll say, and it sucks to lose Zach but... BC's oline is awful, probably the worst in the league, it might not hurt us this week as much as it could have other weeks.

But it gives BC more of a chance than what I'm really comfortable with .. I think they are a team that could give us trouble .. we don't play BC well in BC .. and I thnk Glenn and his quick release might put us in a spot.

 

Maybe that's me tempering my expectations but I don't feel good about this week .. not with the state of our defence.

Well that sucks. Do we have any defensive tackles kicking around at all? This game in BC is pretty ******* important. Get a win here and you can stay ahead of them and win the season series and give yourself that much better chance of finishing ahead of them. Now we've got I guess just Turner and Thomas as defensive tackles? What happens if one of them gets hurt in the game?

I guess Louie Richardson would have to step up.  Not sure the entire BC O-line can be classified as garbage, I believe their main problem has been finding someone competent at L-guard were they've gone through numerous prospects this year.

How in the hell does one of our best guys get hurt in a bloody practice? That's insane.

Losing Anderson hurts I'm a big of his, he'll most likely be out the first half or so of next season as well. Our ratio would be completely screwed if this happened to Jake Thomas. We need some depth, it's really a shame that we couldn't snag Mulumba or Bilukidi. 

 

Dan West & Don Unamba come out of the dog house, in you go Chad Anderson.

With the way ACL recoveries have been trending, I wouldn't be surprised if Anderson is ready for 2015 training camp.

It probably comes down to a "stupid brother thing" they had going on.  He was practicing against his brother when the injury occured.
