Last game: 26-7 win over Edmonton Next game: At Hamilton, Sat. July 8
Worth noting: If The Fast and the Furious series has taught us anything, it’s that it doesn’t matter whether you win by an inch or a mile (or a centimetre or kilometre), winning is winning. The REDBLACKS jump up a spot after ending their home losing streak with a win over the Elks. If this is the week that Jeremiah Masoli makes his season debut, doing it at his old stomping grounds of Tim Hortons Field would set a perfect stage for the veteran’s long-anticipated return.
8. Hamilton Tiger-Cats (0-3)
Last week: 7
Last game: 38-12 loss to Montreal (Week 3) Next game: Vs. Ottawa, Sat. July 8
Worth noting: What will the bye have done for the winless Tiger-Cats? A win is starting to feel crucial, with the Argos and Als off to a good start in the East. Now with Ottawa picking up its first win of the season, the Ticats sit firmly in the East’s cellar. The good news here: they have a chance to get into the race this week, hosting the REDBLACKS on Saturday. There’s lots of season left and this isn’t exactly a must-win, but there’ll be a sense of desperation at Tim Hortons Field.
Interesting matchup between Atlantic vs. Prairie division rivals. Must win for both teams to have a chance at their respective division titles. Outside looking in for the league’s sole wildcard spot.
People complained the newest league member should be in the prairie to have 3 in each division. No one wants to separate Toronto and Hamilton. Montreal is the most eastern team in the league.
