BC should win this, but Montreal has been more competitive than I thought they would be.

BC has won like a thousand in a row at East teams. So I'm going with them.
Loved BC's performance in Montreal when they got to play in a cross-over play-off game in 2014 = 50 to 17 for the Als.
You're predicting the Als based on a 2014 game?
Durant 166 yards passing last game?Quote:

The Als should be 0 - 2 and will be 1 - 2 by tomorrow.
Nice check down by Jennings for the opening TD.
:D
Steph Logan is ageless.
The play calling for the Als with the offensive scheme was horrendous tonight.
Dinks and dunks and the underneath stuff which the Lions were giving all night.
Not much difference in the QB position as Durant is barely averaging 200 passing yards which will not do it in this passing league.
So far again this year, it appears we have a weak East division.
It was a very close game AT. I don't know what you are looking for. Jennings and Durant had similar nights. 288 yards on 28 completions for Jennings and 245 on 24 for Durant. So was Jennings also not just dinking and dunking?Quote:

The Als picked up last years East MOP and hero of the Grey Cup, Ernest Jackson who only has 67 yards so far in 3 games. Durant can't get him the ball.

And terrible calls by flag happy refs at times, or the "Command Centre" too clueless to over-turn obvious mistake calls.
Is what it is in the CFL - but offences have been evolving this way for years & years now- getting worse maybe ?
Most games have been exciting this season. However, if you want to see lower scoring games, the Als are the team to watch. As has been the case since Calvillo retired, they don't give up a lot of points but they don't score much either. Which are the three games that you missed? I am guessing they weren't Montreal games.Quote:

I think they are a team that will improve as the season rolls on.Quote:
