    GAME THREAD / Week 18 / Winnipeg @ Toronto

    So... if we want to win the division, we need to win both of our remaining games. Expecting Hamilton to do us a favor next week is not realistic.

    Sounds like Wilder will be back this week, which should help.

    We can only win 1 if Ottawa loses their last game.

    Not a good time for Weston Dressler to return. Still I like the Argos chances of winning out.

    Argos will win, Ott will lose, Argos will rest guys against BC but win anyway since Lions will be eliminated by then.

    Nice being able to go into BC ( not as difficult to win there like it once was) after a bye week to end the regular season.

    With a bye before BC, resting guys in that game would mean 4 weeks between gams for some players should they finish first. I expect the Argos to go full out even in BC.

    I expect Argos to win out and Ottawa to win. Argos finish first. Ottawa beats whoever crosses over in semi. Overtime game for eastern final at BMO. Argos or Ottawa beat Calgary in the Grey Cup dismissing once again that the East is weak.
    GO ARGOS!!!

    One factor helping the Argos is that the Bomber injured list has grown substantially recently. While Winnipeg expects WR Weston Dressler and LB Ian Wild back, the Bombers will be missing WR Darvin Adams, LB Maurice Leggett, RB Timothy Flanders, and DL Jamaal Westerman. DB Brain Walker and OL Tristan Okpalaugo had to leave Winnipeg's last game due to injury, while Matt Nichols played with a special glove with only two bare fingers due to an injury the previous week that appeared to reduce him to only 172 passing yards.

    We will win, Ottawa will win, and then we'll beat BC to claim the division title.

    Any word on what our linebacking will look like this game? Think Bass will get in?

    Looks like one change on offense with Wilder back in replacing Whitaker. On defense Owusu-Ansah is back at CB and Vaughan in as LB and Harris in for Ford but as a backup. Good to see Finley back in the line up.

    By my count, 2 internationals to be the game time scratches. Matthews for sure, and I'm guessing either Harris or or Davis as the other.

    Edit: I miscounted the number of internationals. Likely Matthews and a National to be scratched. (Gaydosh, Finley or Walker?)

    What about Akeem Jordan? Did he suit up in Edmonton behind Woods?

    Can't see him getting scratched. With Ball out of the line-up, they don't have the luxury of moving Plummer into the middle should something happen to Woods. Jordan has to dress for that reason.

    Nice to see AK and Harris back. Our secondary is now about as good as it is going to get, I think.

    Now we just need Ball, Lemon, and Coombs back for the playoffs...
