Excellent deep dive analysis and write-up A-99!!

Solid counter point volley to Beginner Boy as well.

Don Juan..I def remember you. Great to see you back kicking and fighting at a ripe, young 81. I would like to add one note re: the NFC championship game which it seems almost no one is mentioning. Virtually every pundit is zeroing in Campbell's 4th down risk eschewing a 45 yard FG but did anyone notice that after young Gibbs fumbled early in the 3rd they simply stopped running the rock. 8 running plays in the ENTIRE 2nd H. They were ave. 6.9 ypc and punching the 49'ers in the mouth the entire first half. That, IMHO, is what lost them the game!

1ST H 21 RUNNING PLAYS FOR 145 YARDS.   

2ND H 8 RUNNING PLAYS FOR 37 YARDS

Once Swifty sees Jason (Kelce) licking his lips after those Pinty's wings it will be game over.

She will run off with him and add another sponsor to the FIX IS IN SB party!

When you spell "week" in that context  like that it's probably the right call

I hope that was tongue 'n cheek humor referring to the adverse weather inquiry that lady reporter posed to Todd Bowles.

Indigo....love your weekly contribution.  Sidenotes-Westerman is a 33 y.o. DE/DT who played a few years with the NFL Jets and is quite adept at the DE position and, I am certain, you recall 4.25 40m speedy 30 y.o. WR Chris Williams whom the Ticats had in his earliest CFL tenure, where he set all kinds of records as a wideout and ST returner,  until a contractual gaffe by his agent rep freed him whereupon he tried his hand in the big league and then came back to Ottawa. He is currently nursing a hammy but if he gets healthy and on the same page as Masoli....look out!

Powerz,

OTT has only covered a number that big ONCE in their last 7 visits TO MONTREAL. At home it has been a totally different story.

Just a FYI when laying almost 7 as road chalk. The Hammer is in a similar situ vs. a Western team.

North-Japan,

Welcome to the insanity of betting the CFL. One more valuable tip if I may. Many uninitiated fans either hear or partake in the false rumor that the CFL is an OVER  league for those that bet totals. That couldn't be any further from the truth.

Last year was only 56% to the UNDER but the 6 years previous were 67-74% to the UNDER. I track it every year and have been capping this game for about 15+ years now.

If you get into it and watch a vast % of the games you will find a good handicapper can hold a virtually 10% better average in this game over the NFL...very similar #'s to US college ball!

Wish you well!

Thank you for contacting the CFL!

The schedule is always a bit of a Rubiks cube – there are lots of ways we’d like to tweak it, but there many factors that go into making it, many of which are out of our control. Stadium availability (including in stadiums where CFL teams are not the primary tenant), team preference, player health and safety, competitive balance, broadcast preferences (which are contractual obligations), competing events (as you mention), weather, fan preferences, and historical results – just to name a few. All of  these mean that it’s not always possible to have games at the same time or day every week, or from year to year.

However, we’re always having discussions internally and with our partners who have a say in scheduling – on this issue and many others concerning what an optimal schedule looks like and how we can all work together with those partners to improve it. I’ll pass along your feedback!

Thanks for being a fan, and I hope you’re looking forward to the Grey Cup as much as we are.

Best,
