    Next 10 days may decide our fate. If we get swept by Ham and Wpg sweeps Sask, there will almost certainly be a cross-over which means we would have to catch either of Ham or Ott for a playoff spot. I think it will take a record of 9-9 to finish second in the East, which means we'd need to go 5-4 in second half. IMO there are five games we should be able to win (if we can sort out our o-line and to lesser extent d-line issues) -- one vs. Ham, plus Ott, Mtl, Wpg and Sask. Assuming we lose one to Ham, two to Cal and one to Edm. Manage 5-4 and I believe we're in the playoffs. Otherwise we have to hope for a collapse by Wpg (possible) or Edm (highly improbable) to eliminate chance of a crossover.

    One more point for this string...Argos have not won a playoff game since 2012.
