Calgary at Winnipeg (-5.5, 52)
The defending Grey Cup champions swiftly found out what it is like to go from penthouse to outhouse, when everyone is gunning for you. Grey Cup MVP Henry Burris played fair in completing 17-33 passes; however it was the defense that let down the Stampeders in allowing 255 yards passing and being run on for 176 yards at 5.8 yards per attempt. Calgary will have to bounce back on the road, where they are 6-1 ATS since last season.
Former Louisville product Stefan LeFors had a rough start in CFL debut, completing just 14 of 31 passes for 174 yards. With no touchdown tosses, Winnipeg came up short 19-17 at Edmonton, but did cover the 9.5-point spread. The Blue Bombers open as home underdogs and has covered last four games off a loss.
Calgary is the better team and undoubtedly will want to send a message to the league they are still elite squad and are 7-1 ATS after suffering defeat. The Stamps have covered nine of last 13 against Winnipeg.
Hamilton at British Columbia (-13, 49.5)
The Hamilton Tiger-Cats have tried to make changes to improve and virtually nothing has worked. Last week, Hamilton was being hammered 30-3 by Toronto, before Argonauts substituted liberally, making the score and statistics appear closer than the actual outcome. The Ti-Cats have turned to Quinton Porter as their signal caller, and though he had his moments, key interceptions took what life Hamilton had at various points in home opener. Hamilton is 19-5 UNDER the first two weeks of the season.
British Columbia lost at Saskatchewan 28-24 as two-point favorites in an error-filled contest that featured 11 turnovers and unknown number of miscues in terms of execution by both teams. The Lions QB Buck Pierce, looked like a piñata, being whacked so frequently and did his best to tough it out. BC has had issues protecting the passer for a few years now and not much has changed based on opening results. The Lions have been popular among CFL bettors with 5-18 ATS mark when favored by 10 or more points.
British Columbia should want to give strong performance after failing to win opener, however motivation could be important. Since these two teams have played Under eight of the last nine, that seems safer wager.
Will be back later with some trends for these games ..........Also as I have said in the past this information is copied & pasted ....Not my words .......
