--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Saturday
Saskatchewan Roughriders at Edmonton Eskimos (+7, 57.5)
The Eskimos are still looking for their second win of the season and, even at home, it won’t come easy against the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
Until this year, playing at home gave them a huge advantage because of the natural turf, which was unique in the league. That isn’t the case anymore. So far this year, they have only won a single of their four games on the new artificial turf of Commonwealth Stadium.
Since the start of 2010, the Eskimos defense has been falling in pieces. They have only 12 sacks against the opposing QB’s which ranks second worst in the league. Because of injuries to Dario Romero, Kai Ellis and Greg Peach, the defensive front is now quite fragile. This is a team that lost 56-15 to the Stampeders 10 days ago and these Roughriders are just as scary.
Without Ricky Ray, these Esks are going to enter a slaughterhouse at home. And everyone knows that amongst the 50,000-plus expected at the Commonwealth Stadium Saturday, the Riders Nation will be more visible than usual. So much for home field.
Pick: Saskatchewan
