You make good points, but I think that having Barrin Simpson will help the Riders on the defensive line (even though he is a linebacker). His run stopping is a huge plus.

I don't personally think Edmonton has a weak defensive backfield. They added Chris Thompson and Lenny Walls, two very good players.

Edmonton could challenge for top spot, seeing that they are motivated with having the Grey Cup at home. We shall see.

To be honest, I think it will be toss-up between Saskatchewan and Edmonton for tops in the division, and I also think it will be determined on the last weekend of the season. The west is very tight this year with all four teams capable of winning it or finishing out of the playoffs. Each team has an area of weakness that could be exposed. Saskatchewan (defensive line), Edmonton (defensive backfield), Calgary (offensive line), and BC (defensive front seven). Every team has issues, but every team is strong as well.

The east is much easier – Montreal, Hamilton, Winnipeg, Toronto.

I was waiting for you reaction, Gizzie!

To answer your questions, I do. However, I think it will be really close. Especially sicne Edmonton has Kelly Campbell now. It really comes down to Casey Printers. When he is on his game, using his mobility, B.C. is very dangerous on offence. If Printers is on his game I think B.C. get second.

If Printer isn't playing good, Edmonton could leapfrog past them.

I could be wrong, though. Edmonton has improved their defence in the off-season, which was a major concern the year before.

Coincedentailly, what are your predicted standings?

Do you really think BC will be better than Edmonton this year? Seems to be a little bit of a reach. Have to agree on Hamilton being just on the cusp of making some noise in the east. If they get hot in playoffs, it could be Hamilton taking a trip out to Commonwealth in November.
