I have to agree.......i can't see how home field is going to make a difference of 40 pts. I mean how is it possible that Calgary is even favored in this game? Of course when something looks to good to be true, it usually is!

QB Michael Bishop is out for Argos looks like old NFLer Mcmahon is getting ready for the good ship . . . explains line somewhat . . .

Anyone who has ever read my posts on Micheal Bishop will know exactly what i think of his ability to lead a football team. I actually believe the Argos will be a better team with McMahon at QB. With that being said, even with their "backup" QB in and not having home field, being an underdog to a team that they just finished pummelling makes zero sense to me.

An ex NFL QB should do very well in the CFL. I have confidence in McMahon.

Calgary has been horrible their last wo games, both blowouts, their only win was at home vs Hamilton and that game was close for 3/4ths of the game. While I don't think Calgary will be that bad again against the Argo's I still think they will get beat.

Here's my thoughts on the games this week.

WPG/MTL Winni[eg has looked good so far but I still believe that they will begin to slide. I am avoiding them until I see how they come off their hot start. And the Als have their spirits high after a win against Hamilton and now come into a 4pt game at home. This could go either way.

HAM/BC 16 pts is a big spread but honestly I don't know if Hamilton can even stay that close. Hamilton traditionally does very poorly in BC with the long flight and a short recovery week for them, this could be ugly. Slight lean on BC -16.

SASK/EDM This has all the makings of a western shootout. The game could go either way but I have a feeling that ther will be fireworks. The over 50 is my play of the week.

TOR/CGY This one could go either way also. Calgary has a lot of weapons and should be lighting up the scoreboard but hasn't gotten it together yet. Toronto killed them last week and that gives the stamps some added motivation here. Add in an untested NFL washup QB starting for the Argos and this one is too low confidence to play either way.
