Floyd Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 We need a power back before then. Look at how Toronto used Steele and Slaton tonight... very nice scheme. Grigsby can't block, Cotton doesn't seem to have much either... at least not for MB's game. Walters needs to bring someone in asap. Lots of other teams have gone through 3-4 back this year and found a solution... no excuses. If we keep Grigsby as a RB/SB and have a power runner, it will work - if not, we could be coming back to earth.
road griller Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 I think the thud happened already. We someone to find the pulse ASAP.
SPuDS Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 We NEED an mlb who has size and speed.. The little guys are getting ruined up against 240 lb brutes... We either need that or to work on our gang tackling..
Floyd Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Posted August 13, 2014 Still think Wild is one of the best MLBs in the league... will be nice to have Sears back though SPuDS 1
SPuDS Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Still think Wild is one of the best MLBs in the league... will be nice to have Sears back though Oh I agree, he's an outstanding LB at either wil or middle but still smallish unfortunately.. He does hit hard but seems to be lacking that oomph we need to stuff those inside runs..
Floyd Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Posted August 13, 2014 I just think we drank our own koolaid... I'm sure Cornell, Sherman and Jones were on the field for one of the TDs or at least a big play. We're playing 8 Canadians for no reason it seems.
mfranc Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Speaking from experience, absolutely anything can (and usually does) happen on Labour Day. Floyd 1
17to85 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Wild is the least of the issues. I don't even think it's the size so much. It's just the scheme and we knew what we were getting with Etch. Doug Brown explained it well on the post game show, they do a lot of crazy things, sometimes guys just flat out aren't in position to stop the run. Etch doesn't care, Etch thinks there's better things to worry about. The only reason the Argos running game was a concern is because their passing game was also working extremely well. The big concern last night wasn't the inability to stop the run, it was the inability to get pressure on Ricky Ray. I don't care what kind of coverage you have if you give Ray time he is going to rape you.

Fraser Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Linebackers have been getting smaller for a while now. Think of simpson and lobendahn vs wild. Even bowman was a wil before and now he's a mlb. Power backs and tight end/fb types should really be able to punish a lb core.
road griller Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 It is going to be a slaughter. I feel for the Bomber fans making the trip.
Jpan85 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Hmmmm didn't know labour day was next Thursday.
Bigblue204 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 I've been saying it since the beginning of the season, and it applies to more teams than just the bombers. When teams figure out to use big Slot rec. and big running backs defenses will struggle because they have gotten small and fast across the league.We are particularly small with our linebackers, and teams are starting to realize that. I'll be surprised if Ford is the starter against us when labour day hits.
road griller Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Already looking past Montreal that will be known as the slaughter in St Norbert. Brink beats Bombers......
Mike Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Already looking past Montreal that will be known as the slaughter in St Norbert. Brink beats Bombers...... Just give it a rest. Goalie, blitzmore and SPuDS 3
James Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Even with Wild at WILL and Kromah at MLB, our LBers are still fairly small... Right now our LBers are beyond small... Wild is just an excellent LBer period. He would still be a great DOLLAR if we want to have a real MLB
Floyd Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Posted August 13, 2014 I'm a fan... I can look past Montreal if I want, ha! In fact, I would use that game to experiment with some player roles and see what Jarvis Jones can do at RT, insert Knapp back at RG and use Neufeld in place of Fitzgerald. Get Woods or someone some reps at running back... stuff like that.

road griller Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 Actually I could not find the Kini for the longest time. Then I remembered air guitaring to Thunderstruck on top of the shed last night. Climbed up on top after lunch lunch and there it was. Blew a gasket on the strap. Funny nobody mentioned I was not wearing it when I came back in. Or maybe they did???
