Eskimos vs. Bombers - GDT

[Section N]

- - - Updated - - -

Offensive line gets stronger, and the defensive line gets thinner.

Be interesting to see if Sewell goes to the 1 or 6 game IR. Howard most definitely to the latter.

No more back up Running backs, scary.
Young is ahead of Hightower, scarier.

Re: Eskimos vs. Bombers - GDT

Sewell listed on the 1-game joining Peters, Zylstra who remain out. Behar joins them on the 1-game but I wouldn't be surprised if he is just a stash now that Chambers is healthy. I suspect Roy OL sits as well as Hightower - Maston still listed as the starter at corner but I figure that's Hightower's job once healthy. Boateng also listed as the starter but its not a "National Position" since his rotational backup is Yates. We might see Hoffman-Ellis actually take first snaps at WIL LB and Boateng first snaps at DE and Mulumba rotates in paired with Yates.

#Eskimos DE Marcus Howard has been placed on the 6-game injured list. DT Almondo Sewell is on 1-game injured. Hopefully a good sign #CFL

Yeah, agreed. I was thinking that Stafford needs to stay in the lineup, so the receiver position will stay somewhat solid for this one. Good to see the Duke healthy and starting again.

We didn't have a back up RB last week either, but CMC can fill in there if needed.

And even Dupuis filled in with a catch for a first down.

Re: Eskimos vs. Bombers - GDT

My guess is you will see Muamba come in as an extra DB when Boateng subs out for an international.

My thoughts also. The depth on the Dline is a concern considering that the size of the Bomber Oline. Just hope we don't get worn down without Sewell. Can see Wpg going long early to test Young. I hope Figueroa has a good game against Westerman who has a history of hitting low on QB's.

I expect Andrew Harris to be the guy to do the most damage to us for the Bombers on Thursday. Lots of short passes by Nichols.

I agree, then after a while of that bomb deep...

Have the Eskimos ever released any info on Zylstra's injury?

Re: Eskimos vs. Bombers - GDT

So what was the point in some dolts getting so pissy at Ed Hervey if they're not going to give fans any information anyway???
