Week 9 betting notes
- The Stamps saw their momentum halted against the Alouettes in Week 8, but have a soft matchup to get back on track. The Redblacks are 1-6 with a -55 point differential. Calgary is 5-2 with a +68 point differential, but could be without quarterback Vernon Adams Jr., who sustained an injury last week and is questionable heading into the weekend.
- Toronto will continue to be without Chad Kelly for the foreseeable future. The Argos added Kelly to the six-game injured list earlier this week. However, behind Nick Arbuckle, Toronto picked up its second win of the season last week vs. Winnipeg, 31-17. The two sides run it back in Week 9 with the Blue Bombers as 6.5-point favourites at home.
- The Tiger-Cats have won five straight games after starting the season 0-2. Hamilton’s offence leads the CFL in scoring (32.1 PPG) behind Bo Levi Mitchell, who has 15 passing touchdowns and only three interceptions.
- Montreal is tied for top spot in the East Division while Saskatchewan leads the entire CFL with a 6-1 record. The Riders are 3-0 on the road, and the Als come into Week 9 on a two-game win streak. This should be an exciting matchup with the Roughriders being 2.5-point favourites.
