Cfl week 5

[powerz]

After going 2-1 last week +4* I am now sitting at 10-5 +22.35

Pretty nice position to be in after 4 weeks, I real happy with the start.

First game up is Thursday this week - tick tock tick tock..... I can wait because it's my favorite play of the week.

Look for the blue bombers to post their First W this week. Will post units when Pinny releases the money line.

Let's go guys another solid week coming up!

You're a bold man. I'm on the under in that one.

 

[powerz]

Yes All American - i don't expect this to be a popular position this week, that is why I posted it early. If ppl were thinking eskies maybe they lay off now.

my read booked opened the ML right were I wanted t but pinny has not released their ML yet I think they wait until game day and in reviewing my Thursday schedule i will be busy that day, so for now I played

WINN +2.5 +102 3*

If I get an early ML i will add an addition 2*.

The under does seem like the logical play keep in mind these two met a few weeks back and Edmonton humiliated the Bombers 42-10 at commonwealth. I believe the Bombers turned the ball over several times in their own territory creating a short field for the anemic Eskie offense.

When I look at the stats from that game everything was pretty even except he scoreboard and Winn used their third string QB for most of the game.

Looking on the Bombers twitter feed it looks like it will be a sell out and they had huge turn out for players autograph signing the other day. I think Home field advantage will carry the day here, keep in mind Winnpeg may have weak defensive stats but they have yet to play a home game so that is skewing their numbers when you compare that to other teams.

Thought about the Bombers this week myself, since their next three games (all at home) are against Montreal, bye week, BC and Hamilton and figure to be more difficult for them to win. Lots of pressure to avenge the earlier loss and register their first win of the season, but with so many injuries and "healthy" players having to be held out of practice because of being banged up themselves, just couldn't bring myself to make the bet. Brink can't do any worse than the 9 for 36 (2 INT) he put up against the Argos, so improvement is almost assured offensively, even though the Esk's defense is very strong. Good luck with the play, keep the momentum going!

 

[powerz]

I went over to covers to have a read and the first three posts I opened the players were all on the Bombers.

I don't like the way the line moved on Wednesday. I will just hold my position at +2.5 3*

That was a very bizarre game. We both ended up with winning bets, but neither of them were easy.

Amen congratulations on the under - I only got see the 4th Q but Winnipegs defense looked great to close out the game.

 

[powerz]

Last week i watched the Mont/Hamilton game and I kept seeing AC getting picked up off the turf and dusted off. If he faces any time of that punishment tonight the Argos may come away with a win.

This line has now dropped to 3.5 from an opening of 5.5 - Toronto's come from behind win must give them some confidence as Ricky Ray settles in the bg smoke QB chair.

Toronto +3.5 2*

Nice hit on the Argos! Thanks for the winner!!

 

[powerz]

Thanks Guys....

I think I am going to roll this weeks winnings into tonight play. The Ticats got smoked by the riders on the opening weekend in the own barn. Once again Hamilton had been caught reading the spectator to start the season and were not ready.

But I have watched Hamilton several times now and I think they are the real deal. With a good balance of run and pass the offense does not just rely on Henry Burris and his accuracy. This Chevon Walker guy can really run the rock and if Hamilton can get him going that will take pressure of a pretty good receiving game. Sask is dead last in time of posession on offense which could help the hamilton run game as well, if they can tire out that Sask Defense. Hamilton front four final got some pressure on the QB last week, it may not be the case this week it maybe more about containing DD

The seed of doubt was planted in the back of the minds of the riders as they saw a lead slip away in Calgary last week and then they lost in OT. Without Rob bagg the Green riders loose another key to their offense that guy like dressler always seems to make clutch catches

This should be a good double header game. I am still undecided on BC I will do some capping before making a decision but to me it looks like Lulay needs to protect the ball better and win the TO battle something that can definitely happen when playing against Kevin glenn

Hamilton +3.5 5.5* -110 I would not be surprised if hamilton won.

Crazy game is Saskatchewan....not sure what to do with BC may have a half time play.

I dont really like the line movement I lean Calgary.

 

[VenomousSanction]

good call P!

 

[powerz]

Thanks Vs

The lions just went to Favs at my book.

That is bad news for them I like Cgy at +1 1*

Calgary +1 x O 58 1* to win 2.5*

I think this will be a high scoring game total at 58

Very nice week, Powerz. Ti-cats win was incredible; what's happened to the Riders defense?

 

[powerz]

Thanks maddeaux

Yes the riders fell apart again. The ti cats started employing the same o strategy as the rider quick hitter across the middle and that got the ball moving.

But yeah you gotta be worried if like sask

Bc looked much better amazing what happens when you don't turn the ball over
