I could not have drafted a better response, this is exactly what I meant by toughest place to play. Because of both the way the team plays and mix in the crowd and atmosphere. They are a different animal at home and with all of the injuries on Sask, this one I feel will be really ugly. Good luck this weekend. :toast:

Hey King - didn;t crandel play 3 quarters last week after durant got injured in the first half?
I hear what you mean by a depeleted receiving core....My question is who is the 4th string qb in SASK b/c he is the b/u and what is the state of the linebacking/defensive back feild in CGY.
Sounds like Milt Stegal is starting tonight.

Powerz, Jyles finished the game for Sask, it was not Crandell. Stegall will be returning tonight. It will be interesting to see how effective he will be after missing so much time. I think with Bruce and Talbot healthy and Joseph finding his groove, I think Toronto will score quite a few points tonight. Dinwiddie will get his but I think he will make 1-2 costly mistakes that will turn into turnovers. Winnipeg turned the tables but that game was in Winnipeg.
Wow, I have seen enough. People really are drinking the blue kool aid but the one mixed with gold not white. Line just dropped to 2.5 at Cris and I had to jump on it. I will take the home team with the better defense and better QB with more experience.
Official Play:
Toronto -2.5 (20 units)

Totally agree with Toronto. This is going to be the last time I back this team if they lose, though. Toronto has been a bitter disappointment so far this year, and if not for a 109-yard drive against Edmonton, would probably be considered the 2nd worst team in the league behind Hammy.
I must disagree with the Calgary play, though. I think the price which you are paying for that moneyline is REALLY steep going against an unbeaten team. Calgary's defense is still really awful, and Ryan Dinwiddie picked it to pieces last week without Uncle Milt in the lineup.
It's a nice price on the Riders at +6.5 or +240 or so on the ml, but I think I'm gonna stay generally away from that game. I've got a sizeable play on Toronto ml tonight, and a WTF teaser with Toronto and Saskatchewan crossing over to tomorrow.

If I was not so heavy on Calgary moneyline already, I would bet at least 5K on Calgary -6 already. I will cheer for a Calgary 10 point win so we both hit tomorrow night. Toronto at home only faved by -2.5 against a 1-4 team with a QB's first regular season road start, sounds like trouble to me. Weirder things have happened but I will ride the Argo's here tonight. I seriously think Calgary wins by 17-20 points tomorrow but only time will tell. :toast:
Hey king....
I think Stegal in uni on the side lines makes everyone a bit more confident, not expecting much from him any plays to hime will be a bonus. Peg receiving core is solid.
Quick question -----> how do you gauge defenses, both are in the bottom of the league in yards allowed and points allowed. Just looking for a little professional input.
Thanks

Well I more look at match ups more than anything. If you look at the number of interceptions Toronto has compared to Winnipeg, the number is lobsided. Now Toronto has been terrible at containing the run, hence the bottom cellar in total defense, Winnipeg has O-line issues so Roberts has not been able to get going. Winnipeg's secondary has been torched by everyone and in every game. When you look at tonights match ups, it is air attack Vs air attack and KJ's feet. With the interception ratio huge advantage Toronto. Good luck, now 3.5 almost everywhere.
To sort of hedge out my teaser on the Riders +12.5, I went with Calgary o30.5 pts and took out a small play on the over.
Last year, Calgary reached 31+ in 6 out of 9 home games in a year where scoring was down.
All 4 meetings last year reached at least 50, which is encouraging to me, including 54 and 66 pts in the two games at McMahon. Calgary's reached at least 23 in every game this year, and I thoroughly expect another pretty good offensive showing again.
