They beat a horse with two broken legs, but there are many positives to get from that game. The offence started to click against a defence that they fared poorly against early in the season. The DLine got some serious pressure, and is now creeping up on Winnipeg in terms of sacks this season. Lulay excelled when he had some time in the pocket, and now he goes against a defence that is last in sacks, interceptions, passing yards allowed and rushing yards allowed. Simply put, the Toronto defence is absolute garbage, much worse than the defence the Lions just beat down two weeks ago. The Lions have also shown the ability to play better away from Empire in their short 2 year history, and this could be another case of a late season run that starts on the road. As mentioned last week, the Lions are slowly getting better at stopping the run. While Cleo Lemon has played well in 2 of his last 3 games, the only game he has won is the one in which he played poorly. He's far too inconsistent, yet if the Argos are going to win he will have to be on point the entire game. I'll bet against that any day. Risking 3.85 to win 3.5 Saskatchewan +3.5 (-110): Sometimes you just get that feeling that things are going to turn around (even if it's only temporary), and I get that feeling this week. Two-time CFL coach of the year candidate Ken Miller returns, with two weeks to prepare for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Despite the bad season, the Rider defence hasn't been too bad, sitting 2nd in the CFL in passing yards allowed. While they are still giving up rushing yards, the days of Fred Reid scaring people seem to be diminishing, and he doesn't pose a huge problem. Offensively, Ken Miller becomes the primary play caller, and this combination of Miller and Durant is what helped the Riders win it all in 2007. There's no doubt the offence is what desperately needs to be fixed, and I've always felt better play calling could go a long way. At home, Labour Day Weekend, new coach, back against the wall, let's see if the Riders can keep it close. If Durant can keep the turnovers to a minimum, this game should go down to the wire. Risking 1.1 to win 1. Record: 17-12, +7.85 units Early Predictions British Columbia 32 @ Toronto 15 Saskatchewan 31 vs. Winnipeg 29 Montreal 30 @ Hamilton 22 Calgary 33 vs. Edmonton 12

While he has hovered around this o/u number on many occations, he is picking up a lot of short yardage receptions. With BC's trouble in the secondary and what I suspect will be a BC victory, Toronto should have ample reason to keep the ball in the air. Durie will get his, and 46 yards isn't too much to ask. Risking 1.15 to win 1.

It should be great game on Sunday with the 'Peg and the Riders. A tough one to pick but I agree I have a feeling Sask will rebound with the coaching change. Calgary will be an easy cover. GL

Prospect Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 172 Location: British Columbia	#10 Posted: 9/5/2011 3:15:52 PM Refraining from taking Hamilton is looking like a bad decision thus far. Montreal is getting picked apart on defence. Reynolds OVER 50.5 yards rushing (-115): I've gone against Reynolds several times this year, but this is a good spot for him to pick up somewhere around 60 yards. I still don't believe he'll break out, but over 50 seems attainable, given the fact that the has rushed for over 50 in several games in which Calgary was holding a lead (which I expect them to do). Also, Edmonton is 2nd last in terms of rushing yards allowed. Risking 1.15 to win 1.
