The Calgary Stampeders are playing their best ball of the season and should be this big of a favorite given how horrible the Redblacks are both SU and ATS. The Ottawa Redblacks do nothing right on either side of the ball and don’t cover numbers despite being big underdogs weekly. However, the last two meetings between the Stamps and Redblacks have been decided by a combined five points. Seven of the last 10 meetings have been decided by 10 or fewer points. We’re getting a boatload of points with the home team. I’ll take a shot.
