GAME RECAP
ALS COMPLETE INCREDIBLE LAST-MINUTE COMEBACK AGAINST BOMBERS
CFL.CA STAFF


MONTREAL ? Vernon Adams jr. led an incredible fourth quarter comeback to lift the Montreal Alouettes over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers with a 38-37 home win on Saturday. The Als scored 21 unanswered points in the fourth quarter, and Adams engineered a 94-yard game-winning drive in the final minute that ended with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Jake Wieneke.

The Als now hold a 7-5 record after completing the biggest comeback in franchise history.

A dominant opening drive gave the Bombers an early lead. Quarterback Chris Streveler led the offence down the field on the ground and through the air before capping off the drive with his tenth rushing touchdown of the season.

The Als responded with a field goal after an electric kickoff return from Shaquille Murray-Lawrence, but Winnipeg answered right back with another long scoring drive that saw Streveler throw a 13-yard touchdown pass to Darvin Adams. Streveler?s solid opening half kept rolling when he darted to the end zone on a 38-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter, but the Als cut into the lead with a six-yard rushing touchdown from Adams.

A gadget 74-yard passing play from Darvin Adams to Andrew Harris set up Streveler?s third rushing touchdown, and the Bombers? defence extended the lead when a strip sack from defensive lineman Craig Roh resulted in a fumble recovery touchdown for linebacker Kyrie Wilson.

Montreal responded before half-time after an interception from defensive back Ciante Evans and an incredible catch from DeVier Posey set up a touchdown pass from Adams to Chris Matthews. The Bombers extended their lead with a field goal in the third quarter, but the Als made it a two-possession game with just over ten minutes to play after the offence completed a 98-yard touchdown drive.

Adams threw a beautiful 29-yard touchdown strike to Posey with two minutes remaining to cut Winnipeg?s lead down to six points. The Als came up with a huge sack to force a late punt and get the ball back with a minute to go, and a 60-yard catch from Quan Bray put Montreal in scoring position with just over 10 seconds remaining.

Adams finished the game with 488 passing yards and four touchdowns while completing 63 per cent of his throws.

A 26-yard rush from Streveler jump-started Winnipeg?s opening drive, and the Bombers moved the ball inside Montreal?s 20-yard line four plays later after Streveler broke free for a nine-yard run. An 11-yard catch from receiver Nic Demski brought the ball down to the one-yard line, and Streveler finished the drive off with a quarterback sneak touchdown to give Winnipeg the early lead.

A huge 58-yard return from Murray-Lawrence on the ensuing kickoff gave Montreal instant momentum, and Adams capitalized by following it up with a 21-yard completion to Wieneke. But the Bombers? defence managed to hold the Als there and forced Montreal to settle for a 25-yard field goal from Boris Bede to cut into the lead.

The Bombers came storming back to respond on their next drive. A 19-yard rush from Harris on a sweep play set up a 13-yard touchdown pass from Streveler to Adams, and Justin Medlock kicked the extra point to give Winnipeg a 14-3 lead.

Streveler?s big rushing day continued in the second quarter when the quarterback got to the left edge for a 38-yard touchdown run. The Bombers blocked it perfectly up front, leading to Streveler going untouched as he sprinted towards the end zone for the score.

Adams got the passing game going on Montreal?s next drive with a 44-yard strike to Wieneke. A 13-yard catch-and-run from Posey brought the ball into scoring position, and Adams capped off the drive with a six-yard touchdown run. Bede kicked the extra point to cut Winnipeg?s lead down to 11 points.

The Bombers dialed up a gadget play to retake momentum on the following drive, as Adams took a direct snap before throwing a 74-yard pass to Harris. Harris gained 39 yards after the catch, broke multiple tackles and nearly scored before going down at the one-yard line. Streveler finished the drive with his third rushing touchdown of the game, and Medlock added the extra point to put Winnipeg up 28-10.

Winnipeg?s defence further increased momentum when Roh got to Adams for a strip sack, and Wilson recovered the fumble before taking it 20 yards to the end zone for the defensive score. But Medlock missed the extra point, leaving the Bombers with a 34-10 lead.

Montreal managed to get things going shortly before half-time after the defence shifted momentum. Evans accelerated to jump a route and intercept Streveler?s pass, and Adams seized the opportunity by leading his team to points in the final minute.

Posey climbed the ladder for a highlight-reel 12-yard grab to secure a fresh set of downs, and Adams capped off the drive with a 19-yard touchdown pass to Matthews. Bede kicked the extra point to make the score 34-17 heading into the half.

The Bombers added to their lead with a 30-yard field goal from Medlock in the third quarter, but Montreal began to move the ball again in the fourth. Adams spun away from Willie Jefferson to complete a 14-yard pass to receiver Felix Faubert-Lussier, and the big play set up a 10-yard touchdown pass to Matthews.

Bede added the extra point to make it a two-possession game with just under 12 minutes remaining. Winnipeg attempted to extend the lead with a 53-yard field goal, but Medlock?s kick was denied after it hit the right upright.

Adams found a passing rhythm down the stretch, but a timely interception from defensive back Jeff Hecht at Winnipeg?s three-yard line put an end to the promising drive.

The Als made things interesting by driving down the field in the final minutes with an 83-yard scoring drive. Adams capped it off with a 29-yard touchdown pass to Posey, and Bede kicked the extra point to make the score 37-31.

A sack from defensive end John Bowman forced a late punt and gave Montreal another chance on offence, and the Als made the most of the opportunity by driving nearly 100 yards for the game-winning score.

Week 16 will see the Winnipeg Blue Bombers host the East-leading Hamilton Tiger-Cats next Friday, while the Montreal Alouettes will face the BC Lions on the road next Saturday.

GAME RECAP
LIONS ROLL OVER REDBLACKS FOR BIGGEST WIN OF SEASON
CFL.CA STAFF


OTTAWA ? A dominant performance on both sides of the ball led the BC Lions to a 40-7 road win over the Ottawa REDBLACKS on Saturday night. The Lions improved their record to 3-10 after winning back-to-back games against Ottawa and scoring 40 points for the first time this season.

The Lions? defence forced six consecutive two and outs while holding quarterback Jonathon Jennings to just 16 passing yards in the first half. Touchdowns from John White and Shaq Johnson combined with three field goals from Sergio Castillo to give the Lions a 25-point lead entering the fourth quarter, and the Lions extended their lead with a 14-yard touchdown pass from Mike Reilly to Bryan Burnham. Castillo added his fourth field goal to seal the victory.

Reilly passed for 353 yards while completing 78 per cent of his passes, and Johnson had his best CFL performance with 160 receiving yards on just three catches.

Burnham caught nine of his 12 targets for 135 yards, taking the league lead while surpassing 1,000 receiving yards for the fourth straight season.

Odell Willis recorded his 100th career sack, becoming the 12th player in CFL history to reach the milestone.

Ottawa took an early two-point lead after the Lions conceded a safety deep in their own end, but the Lions grabbed the lead after a big 43-yard pass from Reilly to Johnson led to a seven-yard touchdown run from White.

The Lions extended their lead in the second quarter on a gadget play that saw Duron Carter throw a perfect 67-yard touchdown pass to Johnson. Castillo kicked the extra point to put BC up 14-2.

The REDBLACKS came up with a solid play on defence when defensive back Chris Randle intercepted a pass intended for Lemar Durant, but the offence was unable to convert the turnover into points.

BC extended its lead to 15 points with a 28-yard field goal from Castillo late in the second quarter, and Castillo added an 18-yard field goal in the final seconds before half-time after BC forced another quick punt.

The Lions came roaring out of the gate to start the third quarter, as Reilly found Burnham deep down the field for a 55-yard gain just two plays into the first drive. Reilly followed up the big play with a 14-yard touchdown pass to Carter, and Castillo added the extra point to give the Lions a commanding 27-2 lead.

Ottawa moved into scoring range after receiver DeVonte Dedmon beat cornerback Crezdon Butler deep for a 41-yard gain, but Butler bounced back on the very next play to pick off Jennings and give the ball to the Lions.

The turnover led to Castillo?s third field goal of the game, and the 42-yard kick put BC up by 28 points with seven minutes to go in the third quarter.

Jennings found another big play through the air when he connected with receiver R.J. Harris for a 43-yard pickup, but the REDBLACKS opted to settle for a 28-yard field goal from Lewis Ward after the drive stalled.

William Arndt came in at quarterback for Ottawa near the end of the third, and the REDBLACKS added a point to their total after a missed field goal from Ward resulted in a single.

But the Lions held on to momentum when they extended their lead later in the fourth quarter. Reilly engineered a 60-yard drive that saw him cap it off with a 14-yard touchdown toss to Burnham, and Castillo added the extra point to put BC up 37-6.

The Lions extended their lead with a 28-yard field goal from Castillo, and the REDBLACKS added a point down the stretch after a 77-yard punt from Richie Leone resulted in a single.

Both teams will be in action again next Saturday in Week 16, with the Ottawa REDBLACKS hosting the Edmonton Eskimos before the BC Lions host the Montreal Alouettes.

CFL Betting Notes - Week 16
David Schwab

This past weekend of betting action in the CFL got underway with pair of inter-division matchups. Calgary got things started by squeezing past Toronto 23-16 in a tight cover as a 6 ?-point road favorite. Hamilton kept the trend going as a slight 1 ?-point favorite on the road with a 30-27 victory over Edmonton.

Saturday?s doubleheader of inter-division games saw Montreal sneak past Winnipeg 38-37 closing as a slight 2 ?-point home favorite. In another West Division victory as a 3 ?-point road favorite, British Columbia clobbered Ottawa 40-7 to close out Week 15.

Friday, Sept. 27

Hamilton Tiger-Cats (10-3 SU, 8-4-1 ATS) at Winnipeg Blue Bombers (9-4 SU, 9-4 ATS)
Point-spread: Winnipeg -4
Total: 48


Game Overview

The Tiger-Cats are firmly in control of the East Division title race with five SU victories in their last six games. They have gone 3-2-1 against the spread in that same span with the total staying UNDER in three of their last five contests. The total has stayed UNDER in eight of Hamilton?s 13 games this season. After posting 21 unanswered points in the first quarter against Edmonton, the Tiger-Cats needed a last-second field goal to secure the win. Dane Evans put the ball up 30 times and he completed 22 passes for 336 yards and three touchdowns.

With the Blue Bombers? loss to Montreal, their lead in the West Division title race has quickly disappeared. They have lost two of their last three games SU and Saturday was the first time they failed to cover ATS in their last five games. The total has stayed UNDER in three of Winnipeg?s las four home games. Quarterback Matt Nichols remains out with a shoulder injury. In his place, Chris Streveler ended Saturday?s game with 180 yards passing with one touchdown throw and one interception. The Blue Bombers blew a 20-point fourth quarter lead in that stunning loss.

Betting Trends

-- Hamilton has a 3-1-1 edge ATS in its last five games against the Blue Bombers and it is 11-5 SU in the last 16 meetings in this inter-division clash. The total has stayed UNDER in the last five meetings overall.


Saturday, Sept. 28

Edmonton Eskimos (6-7 SU, 4-9 ATS) at Ottawa RedBlacks (3-10 SU, 4-9 ATS)

Point-spread: TBA
Total: TBA

Game Overview

The Eskimos slipped below .500 with Friday?s loss but they are still in position for a crossover spot in the playoffs out of the West. They have now lost their last four games both straight-up and against the spread with the total going OVER in four of their last five contests. Edmonton is 2-4 ATS in six pervious road games and it failed to cover as a 10-point home favorite in a tight 16-12 victory against Ottawa on Aug. 9. Logan Kilgore got the start at quarterback on Friday night and he threw for 223 yards and a score while also tossing three interceptions.

Ottawa extended its current SU losing streak to six games with this latest blowout loss. It has also failed to cover in its last five contests while averaging just 10.8 points per game. The total has stayed UNDER in four of the RedBlacks? last six outings. This loss also completed a home-and-home sweep by the Lions by a combined score of 69-12. It is hard to see Ottawa playing any worse, but it is a distinct possibility given the poor play on either side of the ball.

Betting Trends

-- Edmonton is 4-1 SU in its last five games against the RedBlacks and the total stayed UNDER in all five meetings. The total has also stayed UNDER in six of the last seven meetings in Ottawa.

Saskatchewan Roughriders (8-4 SU, 7-5 ATS) at Toronto Argonauts (2-10 SU, 5-5-2 ATS)
Point-spread: Saskatchewan -6
Total: 51


Game Overview

Coming off a bye week, the Roughriders are 7-1 SU in their last eight games, but they have failed to cover in their last three outings. The total has stayed UNDER in four of their last six games. They started the season series against Toronto with a 32-7 victory at home on July 1 to easily cover as heavy 11 ?-point favorites. Saskatchewan is 3-2 ATS on the road this season and 5-3 ATS when closing as a favorite. Cody Fajardo is ranked fourth in the CFL in total passing yards (2,862) and he has tossed 10 touchdowns against seven interceptions.

Toronto?s loss to Calgary was its fourth SU setback in its last five games with a 2-1-2 record ATS. The total stayed UNDER the closing 53-point spread in that game after going OVER in four of its previous five outings. The Argonauts are 3-2-1 ATS in six home games this season and they are an even 5-5-2 ATS in 12 games closing as underdogs. James Franklin replaced McLeod Bethel-Thompson at quarterback in the second half. He completed 12-of-16 passes for 147 yards and a score.

Betting Trends

-- Saskatchewan has won six of the last seven meetings SU with a 5-2 edge ATS. The total stayed UNDER 52 points in the first meeting this season.

Montreal Alouettes (7-5 SU, 7-5 ATS) at British Columbia (3-10 SU, 6-7 ATS)
Point-spread: BC -3
Total: 49 ?


Game Overview

Montreal is still 2 ? games in back of Hamilton in the East Standings, but maintaining pressure with four SU victories in its last five games. Betting on the Alouettes remains a mixed bag at 3-4 ATS in their last seven outings. The total went way OVER 47 points in Saturday?s wild win after staying UNDER in three of their previous five games. Vernon Adams Jr. continues to be the big story in Montreal this season. He helped engineer the three-touchdown comeback on Saturday as part of his 488 passing yards on the day. He threw four touchdowns against one interception while completing 27 of his 43 passing attempts. Unfortunately, he is out of this game due to a one-game league suspension.

BC has very few losses to give at 3-10 overall to stay in playoff contention. The sweep against Ottawa followed a SU seven-game losing streak. The Lions are a profitable 5-1 ATS over their last six games with the total staying UNDER in their last five games. Mike Reilly successfully followed up a solid performance against Ottawa in the series opener. He completed 77.8 percent of his 27 passing attempts in the rematch for 353 yards and two scores verse one interception. BC added 144 yards on ground in that win.

Betting Trends

-- BC has covered ATS in nine of its last 10 home games against the Alouettes and it is 7-1 SU in the last eight meetings at BC Place. The total has stayed UNDER in four of the last five meetings overall.

GAME RECAP
EVANS LEADS TICATS PAST BOMBERS IN BATTLE OF FIRST-PLACE TEAMS
CFL.CA STAFF


WINNIPEG ? Dane Evans passed for 359 yards and three touchdowns to lead the East-leading Hamilton Tiger-Cats to a 33-13 road win over the West-leading Winnipeg Blue Bombers on Friday night. Hamilton improves to an 11-3 record after handing the Bombers their first loss at home this season.

Both teams traded eight-yard touchdown passes in the first quarter, with Andrew Harris and Bralon Addison both finding the end zone. Evans was firing on all cylinders early, and the Ticats extended their first-half lead with a short field goal and a touchdown catch from Brandon Banks.

A 52-yard pass from Evans to Marcus Tucker set up a one-yard touchdown run from quarterback David Watford, and the Bombers responded with a field goal just before half-time. Evans finished the first half with 308 passing yards while completing 81 per cent of his throws.

After trading field goals in the third quarter, both defences came up with interceptions in the fourth quarter. Linebacker Justin Tuggle returned a pick 80 yards to set up Tyrell Sutton?s first touchdown as a Ticat.

Banks reeled in all eight of his targets for 113 yards, eclipsing the 100-yard receiving mark for the sixth time this season. Ticats linebacker Simoni Lawrence set a CFL record with 17 tackles.

Harris surpassed 1,000 rushing yards for the third straight season and fifth time in his career.

The Bombers marched down the field on their opening possession with an 11-play, 73-yard scoring drive after their defence forced a quick punt. Kenny Lawler sparked the drive with a 21-yard catch, and Streveler and Harris moved the ball on the ground to set up an early touchdown. Harris capped off the drive by finding the end zone on an eight-yard catch-and-run, his fourth touchdown reception of the season.

But Hamilton responded right away, and Bralon Addison continued his solid play by stretching the field and reeling in a 44-yard pass on the Ticats? second drive. Addison also finished off the drive, as Evans found the big-play receiver again for an eight-yard touchdown three plays later. Lirim Hajrullahu kicked the extra point to tie the game.

The Ticats continued to move the ball on their next drive, with Banks and Sutton coming up with big first down gains through the air. Nikola Kalinic nearly scored a touchdown on second and goal, but he stepped out of bounds just before reaching out for the goal line. The Ticats settled for a nine-yard field goal from Hajrullahu to grab a 10-7 lead in the second quarter.

Hamilton?s defence held quarterback Chris Streveler and the Bombers? offence in check early on, and the Ticats capitalized once again after forcing another punt. Banks showcased his vision and speed on the ensuing drive with a huge 41-yard catch-and-run that gave the Ticats major momentum. Evans found Banks again three plays later with an accurate 10-yard touchdown strike, and Hajrullahu added the extra point to extend Hamilton?s lead to 10 points.

The Bombers were unable to answer back, and Evans continued his strong half on Hamilton?s next drive by finding Tucker deep down the field for a 52-yard gain in the final two minutes of the quarter. Tucker beat defensive back Marcus Sayles on the play and nearly scored before being ruled down at the one-yard line. The big play led to a quarterback sneak touchdown from Watford, and Hajrullahu kicked the convert to give the Ticats a 24-7 lead.

Winnipeg responded just before half-time with a 42-yard field goal from Justin Medlock that cut Hamilton?s lead down to 14 points.

The Bombers gained more ground on the Ticats with a 47-yard field goal from Medlock to start the third quarter, but Hamilton regained their 14-point lead after a 21-yard catch from Banks set up a 49-yard field goal from Hajrullahu.

Winnipeg stepped up on defence early in the fourth quarter and came up with a turnover when linebacker Adam Bighill intercepted a throw from Evans. But the ball went right back the other way when Tuggle picked off Streveler and returned the interception 80 yards into scoring range.

The turnover led to Sutton?s first touchdown as a Ticat, as the running back caught an eight-yard touchdown from Evans to extend Hamilton?s lead. Hajrullahu added the extra point to put the Tabbies up 33-13 with just over ten minutes to play.

The Bombers were driving late, but a shot towards the end zone from Streveler to Darvin Adams ended up being intercepted by defensive back Jumal Rolle.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats are set to host the Edmonton Eskimos next Friday, while the Winnipeg Blue Bombers will travel to take on the Saskatchewan Roughriders next Saturday in Week 17 action.

Edmonton Eskimos (6-7 SU, 4-9 ATS) at Ottawa RedBlacks (3-10 SU, 4-9 ATS)

Point-spread: TBA
Total: TBA

Game Overview

The Eskimos slipped below .500 with Friday?s loss but they are still in position for a crossover spot in the playoffs out of the West. They have now lost their last four games both straight-up and against the spread with the total going OVER in four of their last five contests. Edmonton is 2-4 ATS in six pervious road games and it failed to cover as a 10-point home favorite in a tight 16-12 victory against Ottawa on Aug. 9. Logan Kilgore got the start at quarterback on Friday night and he threw for 223 yards and a score while also tossing three interceptions.

Ottawa extended its current SU losing streak to six games with this latest blowout loss. It has also failed to cover in its last five contests while averaging just 10.8 points per game. The total has stayed UNDER in four of the RedBlacks? last six outings. This loss also completed a home-and-home sweep by the Lions by a combined score of 69-12. It is hard to see Ottawa playing any worse, but it is a distinct possibility given the poor play on either side of the ball.

Betting Trends

-- Edmonton is 4-1 SU in its last five games against the RedBlacks and the total stayed UNDER in all five meetings. The total has also stayed UNDER in six of the last seven meetings in Ottawa.


Saskatchewan Roughriders (8-4 SU, 7-5 ATS) at Toronto Argonauts (2-10 SU, 5-5-2 ATS)
Point-spread: Saskatchewan -6
Total: 51


Game Overview

Coming off a bye week, the Roughriders are 7-1 SU in their last eight games, but they have failed to cover in their last three outings. The total has stayed UNDER in four of their last six games. They started the season series against Toronto with a 32-7 victory at home on July 1 to easily cover as heavy 11 ?-point favorites. Saskatchewan is 3-2 ATS on the road this season and 5-3 ATS when closing as a favorite. Cody Fajardo is ranked fourth in the CFL in total passing yards (2,862) and he has tossed 10 touchdowns against seven interceptions.

Toronto?s loss to Calgary was its fourth SU setback in its last five games with a 2-1-2 record ATS. The total stayed UNDER the closing 53-point spread in that game after going OVER in four of its previous five outings. The Argonauts are 3-2-1 ATS in six home games this season and they are an even 5-5-2 ATS in 12 games closing as underdogs. James Franklin replaced McLeod Bethel-Thompson at quarterback in the second half. He completed 12-of-16 passes for 147 yards and a score.

Betting Trends

-- Saskatchewan has won six of the last seven meetings SU with a 5-2 edge ATS. The total stayed UNDER 52 points in the first meeting this season.


Montreal Alouettes (7-5 SU, 7-5 ATS) at British Columbia (3-10 SU, 6-7 ATS)
Point-spread: BC -3
Total: 49 ?


Game Overview

Montreal is still 2 ? games in back of Hamilton in the East Standings, but maintaining pressure with four SU victories in its last five games. Betting on the Alouettes remains a mixed bag at 3-4 ATS in their last seven outings. The total went way OVER 47 points in Saturday?s wild win after staying UNDER in three of their previous five games. Vernon Adams Jr. continues to be the big story in Montreal this season. He helped engineer the three-touchdown comeback on Saturday as part of his 488 passing yards on the day. He threw four touchdowns against one interception while completing 27 of his 43 passing attempts. Unfortunately, he is out of this game due to a one-game league suspension.

BC has very few losses to give at 3-10 overall to stay in playoff contention. The sweep against Ottawa followed a SU seven-game losing streak. The Lions are a profitable 5-1 ATS over their last six games with the total staying UNDER in their last five games. Mike Reilly successfully followed up a solid performance against Ottawa in the series opener. He completed 77.8 percent of his 27 passing attempts in the rematch for 353 yards and two scores verse one interception. BC added 144 yards on ground in that win.

Betting Trends

-- BC has covered ATS in nine of its last 10 home games against the Alouettes and it is 7-1 SU in the last eight meetings at BC Place. The total has stayed UNDER in four of the last five meetings overall.

PREVIEW
REDBLACKS, ESKS LOOK TO GET ON TRACK IN OTTAWA
CFL.CA STAFF


OTTAWA ? The Ottawa REDBLACKS and Edmonton Eskimos are both looking to snap out of mid-season slumps on Saturday afternoon at TD Place.

Edmonton will visit Ottawa in their second meetup of the season, when the two sides meet in a cross-division duel. The Esks can sweep their season series with a win, having already defeated Ottawa at home, 16-12, back on Aug. 9.

Head Coach Jason Maas knows what?s at stake ?securing their hold on the crossover playoff spot, which would in turn gravely affect the REDBLACKS? faint playoff chances.

?Every week gives you a little different motivation, but this week we know what?s in store for us if we win this game and it?s a motivating factor for sure,? Maas said.

Both teams have been winless since August. Edmonton last won Aug. 16, defeating the Toronto Argonauts. The team has lost four straight since. Ottawa last won Aug. 2, a 30-27 overtime win over the Montreal Alouettes, and has lost six consecutive games since.

Both teams will be in peculiar situations with their quarterbacks. Edmonton will be without star quarterback Trevor Harris, who?s been placed on the six-game injured list.

Harris left a Week 13 against the Calgary Stampeders following an injury to his throwing arm, and hasn?t suited up since. Harris has thrown for 3,706 passing yards, 15 touchdowns, four interceptions, all with a 71.7 per cent completion rate in his first season in Edmonton.

Backup quarterback Logan Kilgore has had to pick up the slack in his absence. In two games this season, the California native has thrown 465 passing yards, two touchdown passes, and four interceptions. Three of his interceptions came against Hamilton last week, en route to a 30-27 loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

As for the REDBLACKS, quarterback Jonathon Jennings is listed as the starter for Saturday?s game. But according to Head Coach Rick Campbell, Dominique Davis will also see time.

?It?s not an ideal situation,? Campbell said. ?I don?t think you ever think this would be the best case scenario. But I know the definition of insanity is to keep doing the same thing and expecting a different result. We don?t have a set rotation. It?s not an experiment, it?s not a pre-season game.

?We?re just trying to change up looks. It?s not about trying to prove a point or evaluate. It?s about trying to find a way to win this game. Hopefully we?ll throw Edmonton off a bit with some different looks and a different guy playing quarterback.?

?It?s definitely not a situation I wanted to be in, but I respect coach?s decision,? Davis said. ?Me and Jon are going to work together and get a W.?

The REDBLACKS will also be without two kick returners in Stefan Logan and Devonte Dedmon, as they?ve both been placed on the injured list. Dedmon last scored on a return in his team?s last victory over Montreal. Wide receiver Caleb Holley will be in the lineup. Defensive lineman Darius Jackson has also been added.

Linebacker Jeff Knox Jr. will also sit out and has been placed on the one-game injured list. He?ll be replaced by linebacker Jerod Fernandez.

Edmonton running back Shaq Cooper and punter Hugh O?Neill will be in the lineup, while linebacker Blair Smith and offensive lineman Tommie Draheim will both come out. They are both on the injured list.

BY THE NUMBERS

22 ? Since Week 10, Edmonton linebacker Larry Dean has had 22 tackles. That?s the fourth-most in that time span, trailing Hamilton?s Simoni Lawrence, Montreal?s Henoc Muamba, and Calgary?s Jamar Wall.

129 ? Edmonton receiver Greg Ellingson is 129 yards away from reaching 1,000 receiving yards on the season. The former REDBLACKS pass catcher would reach that mark for the fifth straight year. He also has at least one catch in his last 56 games.

6 ? The REDBLACKS? losing streak of six games is their longest since their expansion season in 2014.

44 ? Ottawa hasn?t scored an offensive touchdown in two games, or 44 offensive possessions to be specific.


Kickoff is at 4 p.m. ET and can be seen on TSN, RDS and ESPN+, and followed live via CFL.ca Game Tracker.

PREVIEW
FRANKLIN, ARGOS LOOK TO SOLVE SURGING RIDERS
CFL.CA STAFF


TORONTO ? The Saskatchewan Roughriders will get to scratch the two-week itch and return to the field on Saturday evening when they face the Toronto Argonauts at BMO Field.

The Roughriders were hot heading into their bye week, having won seven of their previous eight games. Thanks to their recent stretch of good form, the Riders can guarantee themselves a playoff berth with a victory over Toronto.

?It hasn?t been the talk around the locker room,? defensive back Ed Gainey told Riderville.com when asked about clinching a playoff spot. ?The guys know what we have at stake. These last six games being against mostly western opponents, it?s going to come down to the wire. I guess our antennas are up a little bit more and we?re just taking it a day at a time.?

Cody Fajardo has been getting the headlines for the Riders, and rightfully so, but William Powell was a key to Saskatchewan?s success in recent weeks. In the team?s only loss over the last eight games, Powell was limited to only one rushing yard on four carries.

Toronto?s run defence is ranked eighth in the league, giving up an average of nearly 120 yards per game. When the teams met in Week 3, Powell earned over 100 all-purpose yards in a commanding win.

Fajardo has good memories of that Week 3 matchup. It served as the quarterback?s coming out party, as he passed for 430 yards and two touchdowns. Fajardo also plunged into the end zone for a score, capping off his first win as a starter.

?We want to take care of the football and we want to be good on first down,? head coach Craig Dickenson said. ?A lot of takeaways happen when you?re in second and longs. Our focus is to be efficient with what we?re doing and make Toronto earn it if they?re going to score.?

One of the CFL?s greats is looking to inch closer to a career milestone Saturday. S.J. Green is 150 yards shy of 10,000 receiving yards in his career. The 13-year veteran has caught passes from two of the game?s legends ? Anthony Calvillo and Ricky Ray ? and is a three-time Grey Cup champion.

Green will have to turn it on in the latter part of the season if he hopes to reach the 1,000-yard mark for the seventh time in his career, and he only has two touchdown receptions this season.

The man tasked with helping Green eclipse the 10,000-yard plateau is James Franklin. Franklin took over for McLeod Bethel-Thompson midway through Toronto?s loss to the Calgary Stampeders last week. Franklin got the Argonauts within a touchdown late, but ultimately couldn?t make up the deficit.

?I?m just trying to help this team win,? Franklin told Argonauts.ca. ?Keeping a good attitude is the biggest thing. Coming here [last season], I kind of conditioned myself to think ?safe throw, be careful, don?t try to make anything happen?. Some people say if you don?t take risks you don?t grow, and I wasn?t doing much growing.?

With Franklin behind centre, Derel Walker?s play is worth keeping an eye on. Walker caught five passes for 123 yards through the first two games of the season ? both of which were Franklin starts. The two-time CFL All-Star seemed to click with Bethel-Thompson and is now leading Toronto with 949 receiving yards this season.

?It?s always a tough decision there,? Head Coach Corey Chamblin said when asked about starting Franklin. ?In the latter part of the game, there was a bit of a spark there with James. Where we are in the season, you?re not just looking for offensive output, but to generate some points. Hopefully we can get that done with James.?

While Fajardo had a field day when the teams met in early July, Franklin struggled, throwing for 224 yards and two picks. It was also the game in which the 28-year-old pivot got injured, clearing the way for Bethel-Thompson to take the reins of the offence.

This will be a homecoming of sorts for Fajardo, who spent two seasons sporting double blue. While clinching a playoff spot is motivation enough, doing so in front of your old teammates would be extra sweet for the quarterback.

The Riders made a splash a few weeks ago with the signing of Jordan Williams-Lambert. The receiver notched 764 receiving yards for Saskatchewan last season, but he?s being given one more week to learn the offence before being thrown into game action.

Charleston Hughes will return to the Riders? lineup after missing one game due to injury, while offensive guard Brendon LaBatte makes his 2019 debut.

For the Argos, defensive end Robbie Smith has been added to the six-game injured list, while Jonathon Mincy will make his first start as an Argo at corner since signing a couple of weeks ago. Mincy was a star with the Alouettes before spending time with the NFL?s Chicago Bears.

BY THE NUMBERS

6 ? Straight wins for Saskatchewan versus Toronto ? the longest winning streak for the franchise against the Argos.

686 ? In addition to nearing 10,000 yards, S.J. Green is 14 catches away from 700 in his career.

4-0 ? Riders record when coming off the bye over the last two seasons.

4 ? Consecutive games with a touchdown for Derel Walker.


Kickoff is at 7 p.m. ET and can be seen on TSN and ESPN+, and followed live via CFL.ca Game Tracker.

PREVIEW
LIONS, ALS CAP OFF SATURDAY TRIPLE-HEADER
CFL.CA STAFF


VANCOUVER ? With their starting quarterback watching from the sidelines, the Montreal Alouettes are looking to inch closer to a playoff spot when they take on the BC Lions at BC Place Saturday evening.

Vernon Adams Jr. is serving his one-game suspension following an incident in the team?s Week 15 victory. Instead of appealing the suspension, Adams will miss Saturday?s game against the Lions and return to take on the Calgary Stampeders next week.

Alouettes backup Matthew Shiltz is slated to make his second career start in place of Adams. Over his three seasons in Montreal, Shiltz has completed 61 per cent of his passes for 686 yards, 107 of which have come in 2019.

?His pocket presence has improved,? Alouettes head coach Khari Jones told MontrealAlouettes.com. ?I think he might have been a little quick to get out of it sometimes. Now, he?s staying in there, trusting himself and trusting the reads. That comes with time and practice. He sees things more and more and has gotten more comfortable with what we?re doing. It will be fun to see.?

The main issue for Shiltz over his CFL career has been ball security ? he?s thrown seven interceptions to just two touchdown passes. The 26-year-old graduate of Butler University has never thrown a pass against the Lions.

In his second career start, Shiltz will be facing the league?s active leader in passing yards. Mike Reilly has the unfortunate honour of being the last Week 1 starting quarterback standing in the CFL. This is despite getting punished earlier in the season.

The knock on BC through the first half of the year was the poor play of the offensive line. Reilly was sacked 43 times through the first 10 games and was on pace to absorb the most sacks in a single season in recent memory.

However, with the addition of offensive line coach Kelly Bates, the line has significantly improved, allowing just three sacks over the last three contests. Running back John White is coming off an 80-yard rushing performance in a win over Ottawa and, before that, Brandon Rutley broke the century mark.

Thanks to his being able to stay healthy, Reilly is 400 yards shy of passing Trevor Harris for the passing yards lead this season. Harris was moved to the six-game injured list by Edmonton this week, so it seems like Reilly is in good shape to take over atop the ranking.

BC enjoyed back-to-back dominant wins over the Ottawa REDBLACKS during the past two weeks, outscoring Ottawa 69-12. Reilly was able to get a variety of different receivers involved, while the Lions defence forced seven turnovers.

?They?re starting to share the load a little bit,? Lions receivers coach Markus Howell told BCLions.com. ?Shaq Johnson had a big game and helped us get the ball rolling in Ottawa, Lemar helped us in the run game and caught a lot of jet sweeps . . . and then Duron got in the end zone and helped us on the big throw down the field. They?re sharing the load and they?re making plays, which is helping us.?

Even with their stretch of good play, the Lions can be mathematically eliminated from playoff contention should they lose and the Eskimos beat the REDBLACKS Saturday afternoon in Ottawa.

?There?s no point bringing up the record from the past,? receiver Lemar Durant said. ?It is what it is. We just have to keep getting better this week. We come out to practice looking at nothing except for the opponent we have right now. This week it?s Montreal. The only goal is to beat them and, hopefully, other things will just work themselves out.?

As for the Als, they are coming off the biggest comeback in franchise history, erasing a 24-point deficit against the Bombers. Montreal boasts one of the league?s most formidable receiving corps, with DeVier Posey, Eugene Lewis and Quan Bray proving to be dependable targets.

Rookie Jake Wieneke played hero last week in a breakout performance. Entering the contest, the 25-year-old from Maple Grove, Minn., had never caught more than three balls in a game, but exploded for eight receptions, 134 yards and the late, game-winning touchdown.

The most remarkable performance belonged to the Montreal defence, though. After giving up 34 points in the opening half, they conceded a lone field goal in the second half. They?ll be looking for a similar performance Saturday on the west coast.

BY THE NUMBERS

4 ? Straight seasons with 1,000 yards receiving for Bryan Burnham. The last Lion to accomplish that feat was Geroy Simon.

131 ? Career sacks for John Bowman. He passed Vince Goldsmith (130.5) for sole possession of sixth all-time.

93.3 ? Field goal percentage for Sergio Castillo, the highest in the CFL this season.

521 ? Receiving yards for DeVier Posey over the last five games.

GAME RECAP
LATE TOUCHDOWN LIFTS ESKS OVER REDBLACKS
CFL.CA STAFF


OTTAWA ? The Edmonton Eskimos scored a late touchdown and came out on top against the Ottawa REDBLACKS with a 21-16 road win on Saturday. Logan Kilgore threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Tevaun Smith in the final minutes to give Edmonton the victory, and the Esks now hold a 7-7 record after snapping a four-game losing streak.

Stingy defensive play made an immediate impact, as both defensive units did not surrender any big plays or touchdowns in the first half. The REDBLACKS struck first late in the opening quarter with a field goal from Lewis Ward, and the Esks added a single point in the second quarter.

A pair of field goals from Sean Whyte gave Edmonton a 7-3 lead heading into half-time, and the Esks extended their lead with a long touchdown drive to start the third quarter. But Ottawa got things going in the fourth quarter with Ward?s second field goal and a rushing score from Dominique Davis.

Ottawa later lost Davis to an injury, and Kilgore engineered a late scoring drive to retake the lead and claim the win. Kilgore threw a key 51-yard completion to DaVaris Daniels to get the drive going, and he capped it off with the game-winning touchdown toss to Smith.

Kilgore threw for 223 yards while completing 19 of 28 passes.

Edmonton?s defence held the REDBLACKS to just 56 passing yards in the first half, and they finished the game with six sacks while forcing 10 punts.

Jonathon Jennings got the start at quarterback for Ottawa, but Davis rotated in early and helped lead the REDBLACKS to their first score late in the opening quarter. A 19-yard catch-and-run from receiver Marco Dubois brought the ball into kicking range, and Ottawa grabbed the game?s first lead on a 42-yard field goal from Ward after the drive stalled.

Edmonton cut into the lead in the second quarter when the REDBLACKS conceded a single after a 50-yard punt from Hugh O?Neill.

The Esks grabbed a one-point lead shortly before half-time when a 17-yard pass from Kilgore to Greg Ellingson helped set up a clutch 50-yard field goal from Whyte. Back-to-back sacks from Esks defensive lineman Mike Moore forced Ottawa to punt the ball in the final minute of the half, and Kilgore capitalized by finding Ellingson for an 18-yard gain that set up Whyte?s second field goal.

Whyte knocked the 47-yard kick through the uprights as time expired to give Edmonton a 7-3 lead.

The Esks came out strong on offence to start the second half, putting together a 10-play, 66-yard drive that saw them move the ball with tough yardage on the ground to extend the lead. Running back C.J. Gable gained 45 yards on five carries to set up a one-yard rushing touchdown from Kilgore, and Whyte kicked the convert to put Edmonton up 14-3.

Ottawa gained ground on Edmonton early in the fourth quarter with a big 52-yard field goal from Ward. Davis moved the ball into range with completions to Dominique Rhymes and R.J. Harris, and the successful kick gave the REDBLACKS a needed momentum boost.

The REDBLACKS forced a quick punt on defence, and the offence began driving once again. Davis dropped back and found Rhymes for a huge 45-yard gain that sparked the drive, and a 25-yard catch-and-run from Brendan Gillanders led to a quarterback sneak touchdown from Davis two plays later.

Davis also added the two-point conversion on a quarterback sneak to tie the game at 14 apiece with under 10 minutes remaining.

But Davis left the game late in the fourth quarter after suffering an apparent upper body injury while taking a sack, and the Esks began to find a rhythm on offence in the final minutes. Kilgore connected with Daniels deep down the field for a 51-yard gain after the receiver used a double move to get open.

Smith capped off the drive with a 17-yard touchdown catch. The play was challenged, but the call stood with Smith somehow maintaining possession as he went to the ground. Whyte added the extra point to give Edmonton a 21-14 lead.

Edmonton surrendered a safety in the final seconds while grinding out the clock, giving them a 21-16 win.

Week 17 will see the Edmonton Eskimos travel on the road to face the East-leading Hamilton Tiger-Cats, while the Ottawa REDBLACKS will get a bye week before facing the Toronto Argonauts on the road in Week 18.

SEA OF GREEN TOO MIGHTY FOR ARGOS; RIDERS WIN, CLINCH PLAYOFFS
CFL.CA STAFF


TORONTO ? The Saskatchewan Roughriders brought the Sea of Green with them to Toronto as they defeated the Argonauts 41-16 at BMO Field.

With the win, the Riders clinched a playoff berth.

Cody Fajardo had every piston clicking in his offence, finishing the game with 278 yards through the air and three touchdowns. And if that wasn?t enough, he?d add 80 yards on the ground and a touchdown as well.

The Roughriders opened up the scoring in Toronto. Quarterback Cody Fajardo scampered and slung his offence deep into the red zone before Argos? Bear Woods forced a third down.

Saskatchewan went on to settle for a chip-shot field goal, putting them ahead by three momentarily. The Argos matched them on the ensuing drive after a 42-yard reception by Derel Walker put the Boatmen inside the 10-yard line.

From there, either team?s defence kept things for the remainder of the first quarter and much of the second.

That is until Fajardo got the ball rolling for the Riders? offence.

Midway through the second quarter, the Riders started on offence from their own 36-yard line. seven plays later and the Green and White were in the end zone by way of Kyran Moore from Fajardo.

A 40-yard field goal by Brett Lauther pushed the Roughriders? lead to double digits, going ahead of the Argos 13-3. That score would stand as time expired on the half.

The first turnover of the ball game came in the form of an interception by James Franklin on the final play of the half.

Saskatchewan snagged a first down away from the Argos early in the third quarter after Salomon Elmimian forced a fumble after Argos? running back Chris Rainey had broken free. Nick Marshall jumped on the bouncing ball, putting his team?s offence back on the field for another scoring drive.

Starting on Toronto?s 27-yard line, the Riders just needed a few plays to progress the ball deeper into the red zone before finding Shaq Evans on an out route near the goal line, further extending their lead to 17 points.

After a quick two-and-out by Franklin and the Argos, Fajardo and the Riders kept the pedal to the metal.

Starting from their own 44-yard line, Fajardo went five for six on the drive before calling his own number. The Riders? pivot dashed his way through an opening in the trenches for eight yards and the score. The touchdown marked his tenth rushing touchdown of the season.

In the fourth quarter, fans got a look at vintage SJ Green as the Double Blue looked to chip away at their deficit. Capping an 11 play drive, Franklin found Green posting towards to back of the end zone. Toronto?s quarterback then delivered the ball to the veteran?s outstretched hands to narrow the Saskatchewan lead to 17 with 9:40 remaining in the game.

Not to be phased, Fajardo responded by connecting with his veteran receiver in the form of Emmanuel Arceneaux for a 55-yard touchdown. The score marked Arceneaux?s first as a Roughrider.

Just about sealing the deal for the Riders, Cameron Judge picked of a floating pass from Franklin, leading to another touchdown for the Riders on the following play to go up 41-10. Backup quarterback Bryan Bennett dashed 12 yards for his first touchdown of the season.

Toronto pieced together a scoring driving concluded with a 1-yard sneak by Franklin. But with two minutes remaining it was too little too late as the Roughriders went on to win their ninth game of the season.

The Argos lost their 11th tilt of the year.

Up next for the Riders will be a home date with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on the Friday of Week 17. The Argonauts will follow up with a trip to the west coast where they?ll take on the BC Lions.

LIONS REMAIN IN PLAYOFF CONTENTION WITH 3RD CONSECUTIVE WIN
CFL.CA STAFF


VANCOUVER ? A sigh of relief for the BC Lions as their playoff hopes came within a few yards of being crushed by the Montreal Alouettes.

It remains a long climb for the Lions, but they held off the Alouettes and claimed the 25-23 victory at BC Place on Saturday night.

As for the Alouettes, they could have clinched a playoff position for the first time since 2014. That hope will have to wait for now.

Lions? Mike Reilly completed 30 of his 34 passing attempts, putting up 309 yards through the air and a touchdown. As for his young counterpart, Matthew Shiltz managed to complete 53 per cent of his passes for 177 yards. He?d also add 62 yards on the ground, as well as a touchdown.

After the first quarter, both teams exchanged field goals.

Offensively, Montreal had the upper hand with a mere 82 yards compared to BC?s 63 yards. It perhaps may be safe to say the quarter was primarily dictated by the defensive side of the ball. Shawn Lemon tallied two sacks, and teammates Odell Willis and Jonathon Newsome both recorded one each as well.

The defensive play continued to be the strength for either team as the remainder of the first half was played out.

John Bowman registered two sacks for Montreal. Also, while it may be hard to believe that it took him 14 years to do so, but Bowman hauled in his first career interception in the first half against the Lions.

Kickers would be responsible for all of the points in the first half. Sergio Castillo?s leg would take the Lions into the locker room at halftime with the lead. He went perfect on his three field goal attempts, giving BC the 9-3 lead after two quarters of play.

In the second half, Montreal got their offence operating as Matthew Shiltz looked to get a little more comfortable in his first start of the season with Vernon Adams Jr. out on a 1-game suspension.

On the Alouettes? first offensive play of the half, Eugene Lewis slipped through the Lions? secondary coverage as Shiltz dropped the ball into his receiver?s waiting hands. Lewis went 97 yards untouched to put the Alouettes ahead 10-9.

One offensive drive later, Shiltz continued his demonstration of comfort as he?d later take off on a 29-yard scamper down to the 1-yard line. Antonio Pipkin came in for the short-yardage plunge to give the Als a 7-point advantage.

A spark was ignited for quarterback Mike Reilly and the Lions? offence. They responded with a scoring drive of their own. Starting on their own 15-yard line, Reilly marched the Leos downfield and connected with Bryan Burnham in the front corner of the end zone. The Lions were unable to capitalize on a two-point conversion and remained trailing Montreal 17-15.

As time expired in the third quarter, Reilly and Burnham connected once again to get the Lions within the 5-yard line as they looked to claw back into the lead. As the fourth quarter got underway, Reilly handed the ball off to John White as the Lions? running back dashed his way into the end zone.

With the score, the Lions reclaimed the lead over the Alouettes with the score at 22-17.

As Shiltz looked to respond, the Lions defence buckled down.

Looking for Quan Bray, Shiltz found his pass finding the hands of BC?s Chris Edwards as the defensive back undercut Bray?s route.

While the Lions offence was unable to move the ball, the sure-legged Castillo came in to further extend his team?s lead with a 48-yard field goal.

On a drive that remained on the ground for eight of its nine plays, Shiltz orchestrated a scoring drive with 34 yards of his own, including the 7-yard scoring run. An incomplete 2-point attempt to Devier Posey kept the Als trailing by two.

With less than two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Sergio Castillo lined up for a 50-yard field goal. However, despite making each of his attempts up until this point, the Alouettes? Fabion Foote burst through the line to block the kick.

The block gave Shiltz the opportunity that Vernon Adams Jr. has done so often this season, lead a game-winning drive and bring Montreal another win for the season.

Within yards of pulling off the victory, the Alouettes fumbled the ball and were unable to get the ball across the goal line, giving Reilly and the Lions possession on their own 1-yard line and ultimately letting time run out, extending BC?s playoff hopes to another week.

Montreal will continue their road trip with a stop in Calgary to face the West Division-leading Stampeders on Saturday. The Lions will conclude another triple-header Saturday in the CFL by welcoming another East Division opponent next week when the Toronto Argonauts come into town.
