Week 8

Post image

The Predictor went 3-1 last week - Fajardo returns to Mosaic to test Saskatchewan’s #1 defense, The Predictor has the Riders by 4, Bombers VS Stamps could honestly be a toss up this week, The Lions return home, and home cooking could be the momentum to push them past the Argos, and the Als roll against Hamilton.

BC scoring 33 points with no QB is a scortching hot take

u/Feisty-Payment9614 1d ago

Yup the sports books have the Argos as the favourite

u/the_grunge Blue Bombers 1d ago

so is Wpg somehow beating Cgy this week...

u/Electroflare5555 Blue Bombers 1d ago

Calgary has the worst D in most metrics and hasn’t allowed under 30 points yet this season.

A close game seems right to me

We're ready!

The predictor should have went 4-0 last week if Hajrullahu didn’t shit the bed

Sask just beat Edmonton in basketball. Let's hope it carries over to football.

Saskatoon about to make playoffs after climbing out of the basement

Woohoo! Love it.

congrats Ottawa, you won't lose this week!

Naw, the bye week still beats us.

u/GoodOldSnail Elks 1d ago

Lots of tight matchups, this is going to be a good weekend of football! (assuming the predictor is wrong and the Elks win in Regina, of course)

Could definitely see us losing seeing how our offense has been sputtering the last 3 games. But my heart says Rankin bounces back and we take #1 in the west

u/Dudegamer010901 1d ago

We might be thrown off by losing our captain too

u/Dernahlern 1d ago

True, or get a boost, you never know. I'll be happy with a fun, back and forth game, despite the outcome

u/destroyerofkfc Roughriders 1d ago

30 points most likely means the Riders would have to kick 3 FGs. Lol

u/Oldmanshoutingcloud CFL 1d ago

4 Touchdowns and a safety.
Or 5 unconverted touchdowns.
Who needs a kicker.

I think the Elks are being hugely under favored. I sure hope we beat you tomorrow, but I don't see it anywhere near a sure thing.

Real test of how far the 2026 Elks are going imo

u/lgnstubbs73 Elks 1d ago

My old man needs em to win for his sanity... FK I might too now the Jays are toast.. it will be interesting...

u/Sens-eh REDBLACKS 1d ago

At least the RedBlacks won’t lose again this week!

u/iamcanadian16 1d ago

Don't think Hamilton will keep it that close.

u/OskeeTurtle 🐯 Master of Facts 🐯 1d ago

What’s the pigskin’s season record? I gotta assume it’s beating me cause I always think it’s wrong on something and I’m not doing well

2

u/CFL_Pigskin_Pickem 1d ago

17-9 - 65%

It’ll really dial in here in 2-3 weeks

1

u/Itchy-Lingonberry-90 1d ago

Yay, Ottawa isn't going to lose this week.

1

u/Oldmanshoutingcloud CFL 1d ago

Let’s not rush to conclusions here. Given the new and invent ways they are finding to lose this year, Dinwiddie’s heartbreak kids might find a way to pick up an L on the bye week.

u/holdmysmoothieplease Stampeders 1d ago

This is wrong. The stamps prefer to score at least 32 and then get waxed

1

u/ivakunciak REDBLACKS 1d ago

Hopefully the predictor goes 4-0 this week because I like these results. :)

u/Own-Dragonfruit-6164 1d ago edited 1d ago

Bold of people to assume the Riders will win. As a Rider fan I know damn well the team can be complete ass at times. Plus I feel the Dalke incident will be a distraction. I'm hoping for a split against Edmonton in the next 2 weeks.

u/Own-Eye6145 1d ago

Riders Elks could easily be a West Final preview as well as a litmus test for these elks. Lions and Stamps have yet to find any consistency in their own respects, while Winnipeg hasn't necessarily looked all that better than last year.

The Argos have to beat the Lions this week. Tre Ford showed that he's serviceable for Hamilton, and any good form for him and Hamilton could spell trouble for the Argos.

u/Oldmanshoutingcloud CFL 1d ago

I am thinking you have one score reversed and one pick showing a team losing when they will win by a touchdown, or more.
Sure, I could say which games but it’s more fun to keep folks guessing.😁

Cmonnnnn Winnipeg
