My dilemma is that I want to pick all visiting teams, but they’ve only swept 1 week in the last 2 years.
I think Ottawa has just as much difficulty winning at home as Edmonton. I also want to lean Bombers to beat the Riders as a homer pick.
The other 2 games are virtual locks but never say never of course.
Ugh…
Elks - In Geno We Trust Riders - Not impressed by Collaros’ tunnel vision, lack of offensive vision w/ potential Collaros/Strevy combo (similar to MBT/Ford argument), and Brady Oliveira is not being used in a versatile enough way. Ouellette could eat us for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Argos Sorry Ti-Cats I had faith in you in the off-season. Maybe in Week 8. Lions Speaking of tunnel vision…keep feeding McInnis that ball. 28/33 in the last 3 games. Wow! And Keon Hatcher may be coming back soon. Embarrassment of riches.
First 2 picks subject to change depending on how much I vacillate until Wed.
I’m not picking the extremely competitive but winless team that has all the tools needed to win against Ottawa to win… because if I pick them to win they’ll lose. I’m not even going to mention their name (rhymes with ‘Welks’) just in case that’s the way I jinx them. They’re playing at home and if a decent crowd shows up I’m gonna root for them (whoever they are) to finally break the curse:
