I took a look at the teams we will be battling it out against to make the playoffs and as difficult as our schedule looks BC, Cal, Edm all have fairly tough schedules left. Lets Review:

Bombers

@ Cal

Vs. Edm

Vs. BC

@ BC

BYE

Vs. OTT

@ OTT

Calgary

Vs. WPG

@ HAM

@ TOR

Vs. MTL

Vs. TOR

Lions

@ EDM

@ WPG

Vs. WPG

Vs. EDM

Vs. SASK

@ SASK

Edmonton

Vs. BC

@ WPG

@ MTL

BYE

@ BC

@ HAM

Vs. TOR

The Bolded are my predictions for wins. Calgary looks to have the easiest of the schedule left but the Lions and Edmonton battling it out can help us down the stretch. My final Predictions would then be:

Calgary 15-2-1

Lions 12-6

Winnipeg 11-7

Edmonton 7-11

 

 

RIDERS 3-15

Thoughts?

Bombers should finish off 8-10. Go to the East. Sweep them but in the process loss Nichols in the East Final. Play the Stamps who will be 14-4 in Toronto with Kevin Glenn starting for the Bombers and win it all. Unfinished business circa 2001!! This would elevate all the pain and suffering from those last 3 GC appearances.    

Yes but it might also alleviate some of that pain too.  :-)

well which one is it???

I say we go 4-2.

We figure out Calgary- beat them.

Rest of the league follows and only give the Stumps 1 win over the last stretch and we displace Calgary for 1st overall with a home playoff game with a final record of 12-6.

Go on to Win the Grey Cup.

Book it.

Based on winning percentage, that 16-2 mark is only 5th best all-time:

• Calgary Stampeders 1.000 (12-0-0) (1948)
• Calgary Stampeders .929 (13-1-0) (1949)
• Ottawa Rough Riders .917 (11-1-0) (1949)
• Edmonton Eskimos .906 (14-1-1) (1981)
• Edmonton Eskimos .889 (16-2-0) (1989)

That '48-'49 Calgary dynasty also won 22 games in a row over those 2 seasons. And, fun fact, Calgary has won 15 games in a season 4 times in their history, but 3 of those times did not win the Grey Cup.

If we lose Saturday, I'm considering this my silver lining... we're just luring them into a false sense of security.

Oh indeed - there's a sucker born every minute - and a Bomber team to take him.
