Edmonton @ Montreal

Season Record 5-7

This game with these 2. I don't know why but my gut says 9 is too much and 49.5 is too high.

New Coach in Montreal, they did have a bye week to work on new stuff. But If they are making changes that type of stuff takes time.

Edmonton comes in off a terrible performance losing there new rookie qb and and bunch of other injuries to boot. They turn back to last seasons starting Qb Cornelius to take snaps under center tonight.

The 1st 2 weeks of the season I got crushed on totals in CFL and haven't touched any since but I really like the Under in tonight's game. Feels like a lower scoring midweek match up.

Going on nothing but my gut tonight.

My picks

Edmonton +9

Under 49.5

-------

I think Montreal is a safe ML for parleys as well

Edmonton got smoked 30-13 (under 48.5) as a (-5) home fav early last year.

Esks still play no D. Over plays.

30-23. One way or the other.

Oddly, Edmonton the worst western team has as many wins as entire eastern division.  If Montreal didn't self-destruct with penalties and turnovers, this should have been a easy victory.  2022 appears to be one of those seasons when western teams dominate against east in the regular season.

I'm starting to think we may actually see a cross over team make the Grey Cup this year. Calgary. Saskatchewan and BC. 1 of those three will end up in the Eastern Conference playoffs. No team has ever successfully pulled off the cross over and made it to the grey cup yet.
