Wow, what a week six. I don’t even know where to begin with that so I’m not going to. What a week for the under dogs.
On to week 7 picks. I hope things are back to normal, but who knows. I haven’t seen the pro-line odds yet so I’m gonna pick before hand. I may or may not change my decisions once the odds are published.
Calgary @ Montreal: Two 3-3 teams. Calgary has scored more, but has also let more in. I think I’m gonna call this one a tie.
Saskatchewan @ Toronto: The Riders. Toronto is in a bit of a tough QB situation. I don’t think they have it in them.
Winnipeg @ BC: Winnipeg. Looks like Dickenson won’t be back any time soon. I think the Bombers are looking to redeem themselves after that humiliation in Hamilton. They have the talent. Assuming of course they pull their collective heads out of their asses first.
Hamilton @ Edmonton: Edmonton. Hands down. I think the Eskimos are going to shut them down big time.
UPDATE: Ok the Pro-line odds are out and a I stand by my picks. $5 will get you $191.
Ok. I found a lottery outlet while I was on my way go golfing so I do have some picks this week.
Toronto @ Montreal - This one was tough. The odds favour Montreal, but I think it could go either way. Since I thought the rest of them are a easy pics, I bought two tickets. One with Montreal winning, the other with Toronto.
Saskatchewan @ BC - Pretty cut and dried. BC will take this one. I don’t think BC is going to lose many games this year.
Winnipeg @ Hamilton - Not much to say here either. Winnipeg. When was the last time a team went the entire season with out winning a game?
Calgary @ Edmonton - Again, pretty cut and dried. Edmonton.
A $5 bet on Pro-Line will get you $96 if Toronto wins. $55 if Montreal wins.
Have a good weekend and keep it real.
Winnipeg @ Montreal - This one is making me scratch my head. I’m really on the fence with this one. Considering how close Montreal was against Hamilton I think they are having a lot of problems this year. Cavillo seems to spend more time on his back then looking for receivers. Winnipeg really should have scored more against Edmonton. These two teams have always butted heads and played some really close games. I think Winnipeg has the traction to stick it to Montreal except for the distraction of Milt trying to break the record. Once that is out of the way Winnipeg is going to settle down and play some really solid football. My gut is telling me Winnipeg.
Hamilton @ BC - Not too much to say about this. Even with BC’s QB problems I’m going to have to go with BC. Their defense is just too good for the Tabbies
Saskatchewan @ Edmonton - Another cloudy one. If Edmonton had lost in Winnipeg last week I’d be picking Western Riders hands down. Still my gut is telling me Edmonchuck on this one.
Toronto @ Calgary - They may be down their starting QB, but that isn’t a problem with the depth they have in that position. Another easy win for Toronto. Should be a reply of last week except on in Calgary.
Update: Ok, I’m against the odds on Winnipeg @ Montreal and Toronto @ Calgary. OK I can see the Winnipeg @ Montreal choice, it might go either way, I can’t believe they’re calling Calgary. If these picks are correct, $5 will get you $80 on Pro-line.
Here are my picks for pro-line for week 3 in the CFL. No science here, just some gut feels.
Calgary at Toronto - Toronto. Even though it was the Ti-Cats last week, Toronto still looked pretty strong.
Edmonton at Winnipeg - Winnipeg. It goes against my better judgment to bet with the Bombers as of the last couple years, but I have a bit of a home town soft sport for them and their Defense looked pretty good last week. I don’t think Stegal’s number is up for the record for a couple of games yet either. I think he’ll do it in Hamilton on the 27th. Once the presure is off watch for him to rack of a bunch more.
BC at Saskatchewan - BC. Going against the odds on this one. Both teams looked pretty good so far, but BC is just more solid over all. I think either of them are ripe to be in Toronto come November.
Hamilton at Montreal - Montreal. Both teams are not firing on all cylinders. Maas’ playing injured and Chang still seems pretty green. Either way if the Aoulette even bring their half ass game they’ll walk out with a win.
I in no way endorse gabling or stand behind any of these picks, but if you choose to $5 will get you $72 on Pro-Line.
