Week 19 CFL Scenarios

[olgplayer]

can someone write out the scenarios and what teams are playing for here?

hamilton/toronto is a nothing game. Actually LOVE toronto in this spot getting points. These two teams are going in opposite directions and you would think the non-playoff team is going down, but the Argos have looked good the past couple of weeks and whatever motivation they have, maybe for next year, is improving their game.

Hamilton has alot more problems than on the surface. you just cannot play great and garbage games back and forth in a row like that and now have some problems internally. The QB carousel is a joke and creates a diversion on this team. The great BC win was followed up by a terrible performance in Regina. same shit every two weeks for .500 team.

THink the cats rest more guys here especially with no great capable backup for cobourne(thigpen isnt an every down back.

Fade the Cats here.

Winnipeg win = Winnipeg 1, Montreal 2
Winnipeg loss, Montreal win = Montreal 1, Winnipeg 2
Winnipeg loss, Montreal loss = Winnipeg 1, Montreal 2

BC win, Edmonton win = BC 1, Edmonton 2, Calgary 3
BC win, Calgary win, Edmonton loss = BC 1, Calgary 2, Edmonton 3
BC win, Calgary loss, Edmonton loss = BC 1, Edmonton 2, Calgary 3
BC Loss, Edmonton win, Calgary win = Edmonton 1, Calgary 2, BC 3
BC Loss, Edmonton win, Calgary loss = Edmonton 1, BC 2, Calgary 3
BC Loss, Edmonton loss, Calgary win = Calgary 1, BC 2, Edmonton 3
BC Loss, Edmonton loss, Calgary loss = BC 1, Edmonton 2, Calgary 3

Back in week 1, I posted this:

Montreal to Win East +100 (Regular Season), 5 units
BC to Win West +400 (Regular Season), 1 unit

Thought my BC bet was dead early...amazing what can happen in this league.

So thanks to the Als loss and because Montreal and BC play each other, I can't win both. However, if Calgary beats Winnipeg then I'm guaranteed to win one. Big Stamps fan this week...

Obviously I would prefer to win the Montreal bet and have the Esks finish first. But I don't think BC loses this game. May have to put in some kind of hedge play if the Stamps take care of business.

If I was Marc Trestman I would have Adrian McPherson play most of the game if not all. Calvillo is getting more and more fragile and BC is up high on QB Sacks...and with Offensive Tackle Josh Bourke out for the rest of the season MTL now has yet another hole. Adrian can do the job as long the playlist has no leash on him. He is now a deeper threat than Calvillo. Save Calvillo for the playoffs is what I say.

[Boris Karloff]

Yeah, as for scenarios look at the standings at CFL.ca and those are the ranks if whatever teams are tied in the end.

[Boris Karloff]

This guy says is better...

"The Als,like other teams, have to declare their roster 24 hours before game time; when they declare their roster, they won't know the outcome of the Stampeders and Bombers game; for this reason, there will not be many changes even if Stampeders win. The only options could be: Emmanuel Marc in place of Wkitaker and Adrian playing most of the game,in place of Anthony."

Even if first place is still on the line? WTF?

Yes because "we" (lol) can beat WPG in their house...I'd be worried if a game was played in Hamilton. Let's just say the Als are taking the longer route this year--it's just an extra game. Is there any other backup QB in the League that knows his team's Playbook, his Team, etc. more than Adrian MacPherson? I'd have to say no to that. There's alot more to him than holding just the game's clipboard.

Some Alouette fans say that since this season has been up and down and unpredictable that MTL can win in BC.

Let's also say, on the bright and positive side that the Als will be getting a pre-feeling of the new BC Stadium for the Cup Game.

...and the less we show the Lions about anything, the better it is for the Alouettes in case we meet them in the GCG...and on their turf of all places.

On the other side of this coin I'd prefer a MTL WIN of course (also a WPG Loss and an Edmonton WIN)...hopefully the Lions would fall in the first game on the road.
