Hamilton as a road favorite over the last 10 to 15 years is .
Okay much better the last few years going 13-7 as a favorite, but 2-4 as a favorite the last 6. they had a good run but they are coming back to earth. Indigo makes a good point about coach Ken Austin. He is superior, but this is a middle of the road team. After this week they will be 3-3.
I am on Peg +3.5

Edmonton +4.5 or 5.5? what? over reaction!!!! Ottawa is not Elite!!!! Edmontons D is piss poor ! and their offense has been a know show for 6 quarters now. That is not going to be the case the rest of the year. Jason Maas is a new coach and has to get his game plan figured out. Get the ball to the beast WR's and lets your good QB make the throws and as a dog in this spot it should be gold
Edmonton + finally getting some value. once again Ottawa over laying points!

Sask @Calgary no line but -14 is about right maybe less I am no lines maker .
Calgary or nothing here. Sask playing one of the bests here. I am not taking the points but I am not a fan of laying this many. too many things can go wrong. kicking and special teams can ruin a 14 point line. This could and should be a blowout, but I probably wont have action. No line because the sask QB status is in the air? probably. maybe that will change my mind, but i still think sask can stink this one up and look to the coming weeks to make a sask play.

thats too bad i only took it small thinking it would go up not down. home teams are going to start winning though. I think this is one of the home wins

I've posted how my metric has ranked the teams going into week 7....
I only have to possible plays at this point...
Hamilton would be a play according to my numbers, but Winnipeg is using a new pumped up QB - he seems on a mission. I'll probably not bet this game.
The other play I may do is Ottawa since my numbers are showing that Edmonton is the worst team in CFL. I feel like I may take this on as home teams should catch up a little at some point.... this is a rebound spot for Ottawa, but then again, if they're starting burris again, I may not play this one either. IDK

Hey Spottie....

Agree with Spottie, I don't like the massive 2 TD line swing. But it depends, is Harris on the 6 week injury list or did he just miss the last game? If Harris is QB, then no play for me. If Burris starts, like the Eskimos.

NJBeast I dont play big favorites. I usually dont bet against the Saskatchewan Riders. This week I want to play Calgary -12.5, but I cant. i like the under in that game as noted above.

Exactly what you said. Not a very big sample size but still, I like your train of thought considering the massive line shift from the Eskimos being -10 vs the Bombers and now +4 vs the Redblacks..

p:HFL and p:line <= -6 and AD and line < 6
p=previous H=home F=favorite L=last

and A=away D=underdog and line is now <6
please correct any mistakes please
Hey Spottie,
Bravo buddy
You hit all the nails on the head mate.

That's good!!!
It's still hard to put together a formula there because everything is very specific. You need spaces and proper words like "and"and "line" and yet also you need to know Lettering. A,H,L,D,F. It's a bit much for a simple guy like me.

Weston Dressler is on the 6 game injury list. That is a massive loss for the Bombers. I know they did well 2H without him last week but their 1H was amazing thanks to Dressler. Tough call this game tomorrow

"L" = lost, not last game, "p" means last or previous game and "pp" would mean the second previous game.
line<-6 actually means -7 or -8 or -9 etc.
however when the number is positive, (not negative) the "less than" sign denotes a smaller number
line <6 would be +5, or +4, or +3, or +2, + 1, 0, or -1 etc.
So to put the query into words....
p:HFL and p:line <= -6 and AD and line < 6
Means that a team that lost their previous game as a home favorite where they were at least a -6 favorite (-6, -7 or -8, etc), now they are an away dog where they are less than a 6 point dog....+5, or +4, or +3, or +2 etc.
Fits Edmonton this week as they were -10 last week (p) and now are 4 point away dogs (AD) in this game.
Totals are moving down and now covers consensus numbers show the public is onto the under trend.
Spot, are you the whale that is moving these lines?

A couple of corrections on the queries.
"L" = lost, not last game, "p" means last or previous game and "pp" would mean the second previous game.
line<-6 actually means -7 or -8 or -9 etc.
however when the number is positive, (not negative) the "less than" sign denotes a smaller number
line <6 would be +5, or +4, or +3, or +2, + 1, 0, or -1 etc.

There is a query....when a team has lost two straight games as a favorite, now a home favorite in a non divisional game...that team is 6-0 winning by an average of 22 points, with the smallest win by 10 points.....fits Ottawa this week.
p:FL and pp:FL and HF and not DIV

Also, when a home non divisional favorite lost last week as a home favorite despite being up at half time, they are 6-1 ATS after that loss....fitting Ottawa again.

Whale? Lol hardly I am the little fish the whale sees as dung and moves right past lol.
I understand that Ottawa is a play on here. Edmonton is totally messed up. I am just moving on the fact that finally they find themselves in a favorable line position. Ottawa has not been doing well, not a lot of favorites have. This might be a bad spot for Edmonton but Edmonton has a load on offense. They have not been playing well but that should change this week.
The totals are heading down. Maybe Durrant plays. Since Calgary wants to score lately maybe they put Sask under fire early and often.
We'll see how this all shakes out.

Ottawa was the only one I liked anyhow... my numbers have Ottawa as the #4 team in the CFL and Edmonton as the #9, worst team to bet on.
Thanks - this confirms my only play for the week that I can see at this point.
