Argos, Tiger Cats and Alouettes all fall into a 35-10 early season underdog indicator,....as I've mentioned in past seasons, Vinny the head linemaker in Vegas can't be bothered with CFL games and assigns his drunken half-wit nephew the job of making CFL lines. We never know what we'll get Antonio, if he's in his right mind or hungover on Monday morning. From what I've heard he's been in and out of rehab and Vinny's wife is a very kind soul who keeps bailing him out of jail.
Bring it on Antonio!...let the games begin!

What the hell are you guys smoking? Am I missing something. Montreal will be lucky to win a game this year. Drew Willy should be a 3rd string quarterback and the rest shouldn't be on the team. Hamilton doesn't have enough talented receivers, so it doesn't matter whos quarterback. As for sask I thought they would be a power team but I think the two main quarterbacks are going to struggle.

Shocked by the Sasquatch line, but about half of the weeks there's gonna be at least one surprise. Winny getting 6 points is an obvious attempt to get people off of the Eskimos. Usually we figure out what the bookie wants us to do and do the opposite.

I chimed in a few times last season but going to try to make a better effort this season. Looking forward to a great season. From what I saw from Zac last week, it wasn't good. I'd rather see Bridge get the start. Drew Willy stinks. He sticks on his first read and that's it. If Montreal puts together a string of wins, it will be because of Sutton. But their defense is pretty bad once again.

Thanks guys.....as I've said, I haven't watched any preseason.
Play numero uno of the season.....
1) Green Riders +1
Expect the Riders to be tough this year,...they have all the pieces, though of course the qb makes or breaks a season for your team. The linemaker maybe has given me a head fake and I've gone for it.....as my thread has gone into, I had the Riders between 5 and 6 point favorites. I am hoping it is Bridge running the team, though I'm expecting Collaros.....if it is Zac, Jones should have a very short lease, as the guy has coached champions and he should not put up with less than good quarterbacking on a team that can contend for a championship. Underdogs do well early season and those teams that have made the playoffs last year and now are away favorites have done poorly and Western division teams do well typically as underdog in non-divisional matchups. Toronto will have a target on their back the whole season and though they were slightly above average stat-wise last year, winning as a big underdog in the finale, usually means that team will NOT burn it up the following season.

Away favorites have been 2-9 ATS and 2-8-1 straight up in weeks 1s. That includes 0-4 ATS in divisional matchups. I made the line +3 in this game with deducting 6 points for the quarterback issue in Winnipeg....the linesmaker has deducted 10 points instead.....I just don't accept that a playoff team from the year before can be 7 points a dog against a team that aren't world beaters.
Winnipeg's quarterback is not going to be the worst quarterback in the league this year....I can think of a few that will have more issues than him. He would more likely struggle on the road than at home. I feel he can put up 20 points or more in this game, which when home dogs do that they cover 67% of the time.
3) Hamilton +7'
We'll find out pretty quickly if Hamilton and June Junes have a chance to do damage this year in the CFL. Week 1 away dogs have been 20-8 ATS, which includes 11-3 ATS by those teams that didn't make the playoffs last year (Tiger Cats, Alouettes). Teams that made the playoffs but didn't win the championship from last year teams have been 3-11 ATS as home favorites week 1 (Stampeders).
And finally, leaning Als....out of all the teams, the Als fail my smell test. Drew Willy has NOT been a good quarterback and you need one to play competitively on the road in CFL. Granted it is a tie between Jennings and Willy in my least loved quarterback sweepstakes, but who wants to predict what will happen when multiple interceptions could possibly be thrown. Bad quarterbacking can still win games at home, and less so on the road. As I mentioned earlier, the Als could be the Cleveland Browns of the CFL and some including me once in awhile, kept waiting for them to turn it around.....bad idea. The Als will be my "show me" team in the CFL this year....convince me to plunk down cash on you when your team is in a good situation. They're in a good situation this week.....but I'll be surprised if I dial them up....I'll wait and see.....if a gambling god appears to me in a dream telling me to bet the Als I'll ask him for his ID for sure.
Three picks:
1) Saskatchewan +1
2) Hamilton +7'
3) Winnipeg +7
