Took long enough for those last 2 lines to come out.Not a strong card in my opinion this week.
Hamilton at Toronto +3.5
Hamilton have lost 6 in a row on the road, While the Argos are 1-6 at home, and have played in close games in 5 of their last 6 home games.Given the above info, Toronto +3.5 should be obvious pick, but it really isn’t.Hamilton’s last 2 road games have both been against division leaders (Calgary & Montreal) and they lost both those games by a combined margin of only 4 points.Now they’re taking on the worst team in the CFL, and I have a feeling that after 2 good efforts vs. good teams on the road that the Ti-Cats could walk into Toronto and cover that –3.5 line.However, I will respect Toronto’s competitiveness at home and the fact that they’ve won 6/7 home games vs. Hamilton, and lay off this one.
Edmonton at Calgary –6
This is a battle of two teams really not playing their best football lately.I’m not really impressed with Edmonton’s play lately.The Eskies are 3-5 since their Bye week and their wins were a 1 point home win vs. Hamilton, a late win in Saskatchewan, then a win last week vs. a bad Argo team.Out of all the 4 teams in the West, Edmonton is probably playing the worst football.Calgary’s not really playing good football either.Their last 3 games were a 1 point win at home vs. Hamilton, a blowout loss in Montreal, then a tie vs. Saskatchewan.Calgary is 5-1 in their last 6 home meetings vs. Edmonton, all 5 of those wins have been by 10+ points.
Montreal at Winnipeg +5
After playing some good football, both of these teams came back down to earth last week.After dominating opponents, the Al’s hung on to a 3 point home field victory vs. Hamilton, while Winnipeg got their 3 game win streak snapped by BC.After last week, I don’t really know what to expect from either of these teams this week.You got to wonder when Montreal’s going to start resting their starters.Their starting QB got dinged up vs. Hamilton, and that could be the first red flag for Montreal to start easing up.Winnipeg’s got plenty to play for as they keep on fighting for a playoff spot.
BC at Saskatchewan -5.5
With the exception of that 9 point loss in Calgary, everything has been close and down to the wire with BC the last 2 months.4 of their last 5 road games have been close, and their last 3 games overall have been decided by 3 points.I don’t really like the way Saskatchewan’s been playing a home lately.They have no problem beating up on the teams that are slumping like Toronto, Winnipeg, and Hamilton.But it’s still hard to tell weather the can beat a strong/hot team.With BC winning 3 in a row (last 2 on the road) I think the lions will give them a test here, so I expect a close game.
Like I said, not a strong card, but I always pick one game per week, and this week that game is BC Lions +5.5

San Diego’s only good game was at home vs. Miami.Otherwise they’ve either lost or won close like they did in Oakland in week 1.KC has shown that they can play competitive football vs. weaker teams so +4.5 in perfect.San Diego have not beaten KC by more than 3 points in 11 of their last 12 trips to Arrowhead.
Indianapolis Colts –13 over St. Louis
Rams are horrible, Colts are blowing out their opponents their last 3 games.Just hope that they bye week won’t kill their momentum
San Francisco 49ers +3 over Houston
San Fran is coming off a bye week and should bounce back after their bad game vs. Atlanta.San Fran has played good football in their 2 road games winning in Arizona and losing on the last play of the game vs. Minnesota.Houston has alternated win and losses this season and since they won last game, they could be on pace for a loss this week.
Oakland Raiders +6 over New York
Oakland bounced back well last week by beating the Eagles at home.Jets seem to have come back down to earth the last few weeks.Oakland has a history of not losing at home by large margins whenever they play at home vs. the Jets.
Buffalo Bills +7 over Carolina
7 points is way too much to be giving up to this bad Carolina team.The Panthers have won 2 close games vs. bad teams like Washington and Tampa.
