CFL.ca Game Notes: Hope remains for all 9 teams

TORONTO — It’s Week 17 and every fan base still has reasons to hope.

No team has been eliminated from playoff contention in 2024 as there’s still plenty in play for all nine teams in the CFL.

I think the EE needed at least a split with Wpg. No playoffs this year

The article claims all 9 teams have a chance ! I really can’t see Calgary getting into the playoffs. Next game is a road trip to BC and Stamps have failed to register a road win all season.
I certainly hope Calgary can continue but reality is telling me I am expecting too much this year.

A real, real long shot for the Riders to finish first, but there is a chance! Go Riders!

A year ago at this time, we knew that the RBs, Elks, Riders were out, the Bombers and Argos had locked up first place.

Stamps made the playoffs last year

We need that fact checker guy… :laughing: Mind you it is pretty hard to check facts now days too.

But both Stamps and Elks on life support here. Not only do they need to win out - they need help too.

Very important game for the Elk and Riders tomorrow

Elks will still need help. That Riders tie in Ottawa looms as a big point in the standings…

Stamps Re really not in the picture. Riders and Elk may not have to worry about the Cats cross over but both realistically even they make the playoffs can hope to be better than BC but certainly not THE BOMBERS.
It still remains a race for second and third place between teams
All three struggling and with issues.
Bombers vs Larks rematch???

The help they need is the Riders losing all of their remaining games and the Elks winning all their remaining games

That actually could happen.
It can easily also happen to the Elk or the Lions.
All three are struggling mightily
Cowtown pretty much out out the equation but not yet mathematically.
So anything can happen
