Overwhelming pick in this week's FNF game is the Stamps over BC....I've seen no other pick. It's the #2 ranked team vs. the #8 ranked team.

Check out these game notes...

The Stampeders have not lost two games in a row since July 12, 2012, a span of 62 games (Toronto & Montreal Jul 7 & 12).

Stamps at home: BC is one of only two clubs to defeat Calgary at McMahon Stadium in the last 16 Stampeder home games (Winnipeg was the other) and Calgary is 16-2 in that run. In their last 29 home games dating back to Sep 3/12, Calgary is 26-3.

First 28 QB Starts: Calgary is now 23-5 when Bo Levi Mitchell starts at QB after last week’s loss to Edmonton.

Low Carries: Last week’s total of 4 carries for Harris was his lowest total as a starter since a 35-14 loss to Saskatchewan on Oct 19/13 (4 for 29 yards).

Calgary & BC successful challengers: The Stampeders challenged twice last week and were able to overturn both initial calls; the only other club in 2015 to do that was BC on Jul 4/15 vs Ottawa. Last year only three clubs all year went two-for-two.

Last week EDM: Calgary started very slowly last week as Edmonton held them to just 113 first half net yards and 7 first downs. Calgary did not score in the 1st Quarter for the second straight game but bounced back to lead 10-9 at the half. Edmonton forced two late Calgary turnovers however to win 27-16. The 352 passing yards for Mike Reilly was just the second 300+ game posted by an opposing QB this season.

Last week vs OTT: The Lions were beaten by Ottawa for the first time at home since October 6, 1990 and that broke a run of 22-1 vs Ottawa clubs dating back to October 1979. BC was held to just 18:15 of Possession Time and in the 21 seasons since 1995 when data exists for this result, it was the 3rd-lowest ever. That trailed only the record-low 17:46 for Toronto vs Calgary in July 2010.

- The Stampeders have now gone two games scoring just 16 points in each after averaging 31.4 ppg in the previous 7 contests. Over the last 2 games, Calgary has only 2 TD drives and 6 FGs in 33 possessions with 11 punts and 5 turnovers.

- This is an amazing stat....The Lions have now gone three games without a “big play” on offence with their longest rush being just 14 yards (and only two going 10+ yards), and their longest pass being just 29 yards.

- Rene Paredes: Holds the CFL’s longest current FG made streak at 15 in a row and has missed just three times all season (88.9%). Paredes’ longest streak of 2014 was 11 straight made. Prior to the current 15 straight he has now made, he had gone just 20-for-30 dating back to the final 6 games of 2014, a 67% mark.

- Over their first 7 games, the Stamps were a +7 in the Turnover ratio category. Over their last 4 games they have gone -5 with 6 interceptions and 3 fumbles lost.

- BC 2 wins in last 7: The last time that the Lions won only twice in a span of 7 games was to close out the 2014 season. In their last 17 games the Lions W-L record is just 6-11.

- This is the latest date that the Stamps and Lions have had their first meeting of the regular season in 62 years of competition.

SK losses. Again. Love it.

I dunno. I watch NFL broadcasts & it is just so much more professional compared to TSN. NFL fans in the US complain about Chris Collinsworth... They don't have Rod Black to deal with. .

thrills and spills, fun game to watch.

1-11.

Entertaining game, can't ask for more then that.

The Riders keep finding ways to beat themselves.

Demski makes a brutal decision.

Should have been a safety.

Why should that have been a safety. He wasn't in the end zone when he was tackled.

heard on the radio that the thunderbirds had 519 yards passing against bisons tonight.

broadcast the game on cjob. The broadcast guys were very impressed with both quarterbacks.

Bisons had 519 passing. Kid broke yantz record. Still lost tho

Riders need to overhaul their defense as it is brutal. I don't know how many guys you get rid of but they can't cover worth a damn. Offensively the Riders receiving corps are old, slow & too small. They have 2 starting smurfs & I don't know how that can help. Dressler would fetch a decent player & or a draft pick back while the others maybe a bag of footballs. Bagg & Getzlaff are in their 30's & are no longer any kind of threat. The Riders have the worst receiving corps in the CFL & they don't scare anyone anymore. At qb Glenn is 0-5 as a starter. The team is now 1-11. The season is over. Playing a 36 year old Glenn makes no sense anymore. I think they should let Smith play to gain experience & to plan for next year.

Because it was a dumb decision to even take it out.

Lucky bastard

Well he shoulda taken the safety, not rush the goal line and trip over it lol.. Rookie mistake but its gonna happen.

He has made a few mistakes like that around the goalline this year.
