YTD: 1-4
Toronto +9
Horrible start to the year as either betting on BC or fading Edmonton has sent me to the poor house but I cannot let emotion get in the way as I see this as a nice spot to fade Edmonton again. The Eskies have been out to prove themselves all year and before last week had not had a signature win but then they went on the road to prove they were for real and picked up a huge win in Calgary. If there were any remaining doubters about this team they have probably all been converted and that is usually the time to hop on the other side and fade especially as a big fav.
This looks like a big flat spot for Edmonton as they don't have to prove themselves anymore as I've said as most everyone thinks they are now for real. Kavis Reed can give one of his "rah rah show em your men!" speeches before this game but how can the players take him seriously when they are 4-0 and now have everyone's respect and also find themselves as big favs against a 1-3 doormat throwing out a backup QB? I don't think they can. There is a massive difference between looking for respect and looking to make a statement before a road game against your arch-rival and being a large fav against an out of conference doormat. Edmonton has road games @ 3-1 Winnipeg and @ 3-1 Montreal in the next two weeks. I think they sleepwalk through this one.
