inside threesome of Khalif Mitchell, Eric Taylor and rookie Jabar Westerman might give the Lions an edge at the tackle positions, but Mitchell has been in and out of the lineup with injuries and suspensions, and one never knows where his head is at.

Edge: Lions LINEBACKERS -- Middle linebacker Juwan Simpson and WILL (wide-side) ??backer Malik Jackson form a partnership that the Stampeders believe is the equal of the relationship developed by the Lions?? duo of tackling machine Adam Bighill and Anton McKenzie, an overlooked performer with a keen sense of knowing where a play is going. Following an injury to Chris Randle, Simpson and Jackson have been joined by Keon Raymond, a defensive back by trade who was among the CFL leaders in interceptions with five (one of which he returned for a touchdown). Simpson, All-CFL in 2010, didn??t put up the same tackles numbers as Bighill (104) or Edmonton??s J.C. Sherritt (a record 130). He had 82. But the Stampeders?? defence doesn??t allow the same latitude to free-lance, as did the Eskimos. Calgary's assignments are predicated more on gap responsibility. Stampeders allowed an average of 99.2 rushing yards per game; the Eskimos a league-worst 126.8. ??You see these guys (Sherritt) with crazy numbers,?_ Simpson told the Calgary Herald. ??I??ll trade tackles for wins any day.?_ Let??s put it this way: the Eskimos seemed more concerned about records.
