Id also flip Hamilton and Toronto because in hamilton it was the receivers dropping a lot of balls that gave them problems and Maas will help a lot but wont put them above TO.
In the west things are very hard to tell. Do the riders pick up Joseph? wHo is gonna coach winnipeg? Will Dickenson be healthy? too many ifs to give predictions on the west
Just because Edmonton managed to win the Grey Cup (consider how close they came to dropping out of the playoffs in the two games leading up to it) does not guarantee them a top-3 finish next season ... in fact, I suspect they'll be about on par with Saskatchewan, and lower than Calgary.
i think it'll finish: East Toronto13-5 ( shoulda been in grey cup game but Choked. back with vengence ) Montreal 12-6 ( will be close, but wont finish first ) Hamilton 9-9 ( back to respectibility and playoffs )
Ottawa 8-10 ( best season yet, but still too far from playoffs )
Halifax 0-0 ( still waiting )
West: Edmonton 13-5 ( have the total package for the whole season, not just the end ) Calgary 12-6 ( really meshed down the stretch, and choking in playoffs will motivate ) Saskatchewan 10-8 ( will be better with healthy Domingez or a real QB. )
BC 7-11 ( looked terrible to end '05 season and havent made any adjustmennts, and infact lost QB depth )
Winnipeg 6-12 ( new coaches will motivate an improvement, but they havent made any lineup changes )
***after the lions start 5-4, DD will go down ( cuz of weak un-improved O-line ) & without Printers to step up, they will crawl for only 2-7 to close the season.
east
mon
tor (if allen stayes healthy)
ham
ott (with or without joseph)
no crossover printers will go to miami and dickenson will get hurt half way threw the season buck will choke and they will finish4
