Game Thread: Montreal at Calgary Saturday September 23

After almost beating the Argos, I think the Als will be pushing hard to ensure home field advantage in the East semi-finals instead of Hamilton who is tied with them in the standings , so I will pick them over Calgary.

I have agonized over this pick along with the BC/Edmonton game. For now, I am going with Calgary in this one, as they are coming off the bye week but Montreal is more than capable of winning this one also. I could see myself switching my pick before this game goes ahead tomorrow although going with my first instinct does tend to work best for me.

Having Stanback not only improved the Als ground game, it took some of the heat off of Mr. Sackable, Cody Fajardo, who wasn't sacked once in the game.

And Dickheadson continues to ignore his run game to go mostly pass.


Looking good on the Stumps - love to see them out of the play-offs, for the 1st time in a long time.

Ottawa gets Als back to back next: IMO, they could win both games, and have a shot to beat out the sad Ticats for 3rd in the East.

Heck, they might still have a chance to beat out Saskatchewan and cross over to the WSF.

Got a good chuckle from Suitor yesterday repeatedly mentioning how Calgary is the only team that beat the Argos. No mention whatsoever of the circumstances.

Yeah, I did too. It's hard to imagine Calgary winning that game if Kelly had played the entire game. It certainly would have been a nailbiter at the very least.

Ottawa, with Kaleb Evans at QB, beat the Argos last year.

This year's Argos are a far better team IMO; building on that GC win; talent / depth galore; and Kelly off the charts outstanding throwing the ball. Best coaching staff in the league as well- by miles too IMO.
