🧠 Key Takeaways from Week 8
✅ Hamilton: The Hottest Team in the CFL
Forget trending — the Tigercats are on fire. Now riding a 5-game winning streak, Hamilton put up 37 points on BC and leads the league in scoring (32.14 PPG). With a 3-0 record in their last three and 100% confidence, this is no fluke — it’s a full-blown bullish breakout.
ATS Forecast: Hamilton continues to outperform the line — if you’re not riding the wave, you might be getting swept out.
🟨 Saskatchewan Sneaks Past Edmonton
The Roughriders didn’t cover the -8.5 spread but eked out a 21-18 win over the Elks. They’re still the class of the league at 6-1, but bettors beware — this one was closer than the market expected.
Confidence remains steady at 66%, but value is shrinking. Market signals say: Hold, not chase.
❌ Winnipeg: Once Elite, Now a Liability
What is happening in Bomberland? A 31-17 loss to lowly Toronto (2-5) capped a 3-game skid, and their confidence rating has tanked to 0%. They’ve officially entered Bearish Territory.
From Grey Cup darlings to a volatile asset — sharp bettors are either fading Winnipeg or waiting on a bounce-back buy-low spot.
📉 Calgary and Montreal: Quiet Contenders
Calgary dropped a tight one to Montreal (23-21), but both teams sit comfortably at 5-2. Montreal’s defense ranks second in the league (22.57 PAPG), and these two clubs look like playoff staples.
Value remains NEUTRAL, but don’t be surprised if one of these teams surges in the second half.
🧮 The Power Numbers: Offense + Defense Rankings
Top Offenses (PPG):
- Hamilton – 32.14
- Saskatchewan – 28.43
- Calgary – 27.86
- Montreal – 27.29
- Toronto – 26.29
Top Defenses (PAPG):
- Calgary – 19.14
- Montreal – 22.57
- Saskatchewan – 24
- Hamilton – 26
- BC – 27
Hamilton leads the league in offense, Calgary leads in defense — and that’s why the next few weeks will be a tug-of-war for top-tier status.
