CFL thoughts,plays & rambles: 42-72 -20.35 UNITS S.U YTD,MIX SPORT PARLAYS6-26 +11.8 UNITS YTD

Gonna have to roll with the Bombers in this one. Ricky Ray was starting to look more and more comfortable with the offense and as he gopt better so did the entire team. Some prognosticators were even penciling them in as a dark horse to win it all. Well that still could happen but it's gonna be tough without their star q.b. Sure Jackson is a capable backup and has a decent skill set of size,strength,nobility and arm strength but one area I'm not sold on with Jarious is the strength between the ears. The offense was tricky for Ray get a full grasp of so I don't expect Jackson to come outta the gate looking like a hero tonight.

And as bad as the Bombers have been this year they have weapons of their own on both sides of the ball. Their front 7 gets constant pressure on the q.b and lead the lead with 36 sacks on the season,8 more than the ESKS 28. They also have a strong running game with the 1st year back Chad Simpson who is 4th in the league in rushing and averaging 6 yards per carry. And most importantly they have their leader and veteran q.b Buck "Porcelain"  Pierce back and as long as he can stay healthy and finish the damn game I see the PEG coming out with the W tonight in front of a loud and supportive home crowd. The line has moved a bit but even with Ray in this game I'd like WIN -3 so with him sitting this one out I think an extra halfer or full point inflation on the line is nothing to be overly concerned about.

And now the ESKS are going to have to face a TiCats offense that is either 1st or 2nd in most offense categories (EDM last 9r second last in most offensive categories) missing their best player. The TiCats D has also sucked this year but are playing better lately and I love the addition of Brandon Peguese who has a great motor and is getting pressure on the q.b.

So with a mediocre D and a top flight offense for the TiCats allowing and scoring over 30 per and a heavily banged up D for EDM along with a decent home offense scoring 25 a game I think this one easily sails O 52.5. And also taking the TiCats as they seem to be heading up in the standings winning 2 of 3 including an 51-8 BEATDOWN of these ESKS in HAM and a 41-28 thumping of the ALs while the ESKS are in a 5 game losing streak while being outscore 160 to 89.
