    CFL underdogs and Unders have oddsmakers on their toes in Week 3

    The CFL was a one-sided league in 2014, with the West dominating the East. That may not be the case in 2015, and early underdog bettors are making plenty of bacon – Canadian bacon that is – two weeks in.

    Entering Week 3 of the schedule, CFL underdogs are an unblemished 7-0 ATS (8-0 ATS if you got Hamilton as a dog instead of pick'em versus Winnipeg in Week 2) with six of those paydays coming from East Division teams covering the spread against squads from the West Division. In fact, the East holds a 5-1 SU edge over the West after going 12-28 SU in non-divisional clashes last season.

    “Bettors generally like to back favorites and when you combine that with the West's dominance from last season, it is no wonder that these early results have been unexpected,” renowned CFL oddsmaker Randall “The Handle” tells Covers.

    Week 2 featured four non-divisional matchups and all four went to teams from the East. Hamilton knocked off Winnipeg 52-26 after closing as big as a 1.5-point underdog at most books, Montreal dropped defending Grey Cup champ Calgary 29-11 as a 9.5-point home dog, Ottawa stunned B.C. 27-13 as a 3-point home pup, and Toronto capped the week with a 42-40 OT win in Saskatchewan as a field-goal underdog.

    The Week 3 slate has three of its four games between non-divisional opponents, with Ottawa at Edmonton, Montreal at Winnipeg, and Toronto at Calgary. Randall says this week’s CFL spreads will not be shaded toward this trend but he does say he’ll be closely monitoring the betting patterns for Week 3 action.

    “It truly is a small sample although we cannot ignore some of the things we are seeing,” he says. “We will gauge both the teams competing and the marketplace but it remains business as usual. As a linemaker, my objective is always to draw good two-way action and week to week action is a component.”

    “Faves will start covering some games at some point but no one knows when that may start,” he adds. “We'll see if action dwindles at all this week or if bettors feel that this is the week where things start to balance out. Lines have been sent out. We'll see how it goes.”

    Another trend, which has carried over from last season, is the rate Unders have cashed in for total bettors. So far, through two weeks, CFL games have finished 3-5 Over/Under – on the heels of the 2014 season in which CFL games went 34-51 O/U on the year for a 60 percent winning rate for Under players.

    Entering 2015, the CFL changed rules regarding pass interference and punt returns, hoping to jumpstart scoring following a 2014 campaign that saw team’s average scoring drop from 26.21 points per game in 2013 to just 22.74 points. So far in 2015, CFL teams are averaging 26.18 points per game but that increase in production hasn’t paid out for the Over.

    “Scoring was down a year ago and not too much has changed, despite the rule changes. That said, the new rules are creating more opportunities for scoring but teams have not taken full advantage quite yet,” Randall says. “A slew of quarterback injuries could be a contributing factor. Again, we'll monitor and respond accordingly.”

    As of the third week of the CFL calendar, more than half of the league’s teams are missing their designated No. 1 quarterback with Toronto, Montreal, Edmonton, Saskatchewan, and now Winnipeg - QB Drew Willy questionable for Friday’s home stand against the Alouettes – looking down the depth chart at pivot.

    Books have started releasing Week 3 odds with the Eskimos opening as 5-point home faves against Ottawa, Montreal opening +3.5 at Winnipeg, BC opening as a 3.5-point home fave against Saskatchewan and the Argos +6.5 at the Stampeders.

        Game of the day: Redblacks at Eskimos
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Ottawa Redblacks at Edmonton Eskimos (-6, 45.5)

        The Ottawa Redblacks look to stay unbeaten when they hit the road to face the Edmonton Eskimos on Thursday. The Redblacks have already equaled their win total from last season following back-to-back victories over the Montreal Alouettes and BC Lions.

        Ottawa holds the top spot in the East Division for the first time in franchise history and hopes veteran quarterback Henry Burris can continue his renaissance after throwing for 559 yards and four touchdowns in the first two games. Edmonton looks to bounce back from a disappointing 26-11 loss to the Toronto Argonauts in Week 1. The Eskimos will have to turn things around without their starting quarterback Mike Reilly, who is sidelined for the next 10-to-12 weeks with a knee injury, and Matt Nichols will be tasked with trying to salvage Edmonton's season. "I know I can go in and win games," Nichols told reporters. "I think I've played pretty well every time that I've gone in and played, so I don't look for anything different."

        TV:
        9 p.m. ET, TSN, ESPN2

        LINE HISTORY:
        The Eskies initially opened as 6-point favorites before shifting down to -6. The total dropped from 46 to 45.5 since open.

        INJURY REPORT:
        Redblacks - WR Khalil Paden (Ques-Undisclosed), DB Travell Dixon (Out-Suspension) Eskimos - QB Mike Reilly (Out-Knee), OL Greg Wojt (Ques-Neck)

        ABOUT THE REDBLACKS (2-0 SU, 2-0 ATS, 0-2 O/U):
        Wide receiver Brad Sinopoli, who played quarterback for the Ottawa Gee-Gees in college, caught nine passes for 99 yards and a touchdown - his first TD since joining the Redblacks from the Calgary Stampeders in the offseason. "I spent so much time here in university," Sinopoli told reporters. "Just the way it is now with the crowd and the new stadium is amazing and hey we're 2-0." Free agent acquisitions Ernest Jackson and Greg Ellingson each caught touchdown passes against the Lions as Ottawa's revamped receiving corps continues to impress.

        ABOUT THE ESKIMOS (0-1 SU, 0-1 ATS, 0-1 O/U):
        Nichols went 94-of-151 for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns, but threw five interceptions in five games last season. Wide receiver Kenny Stafford was one of the lone bright spots in Week 1 as he hauled in four passes for 66 yards and a touchdown. Edmonton should get a big boost with the news that offensive lineman Greg Wojt, safety Otha Foster, cornerback Marcell Young and fullback Mike Miller are ready to go after missing the season opener with various injuries.

        TRENDS:


        *RedBlacks are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games.
        *Eskimos are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games following a bye week.
        *Under is 5-1-1 in RedBlacks last 7 games overall.
        *Under is 4-0 in Eskimos last 4 games in July.

        CONSENSUS:
        50.47 percent of the public is on the Eskimos with 52.5 percent on the over.

          Bombers QB Drew Willy cleared to play in Week 3

          Winnipeg Blue Bombers quarterback Drew Willy has gotten the green light to play in Week 3 after a helmet-to-helmet collision against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Week 2.

          Willy returned to practice Monday and was leading the Bombers' offense, prepping for their clash against the Montreal Alouettes.

          The Bombers are being offered as 3.5-point home favorites for the matchup and according to renowned CFL oddsmaker Randall the Handle, Willy is worth at least three points to Winnipeg spreads.

            ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

            Montreal Alouettes at Winnipeg Blue Bombers (-3, 53)

            The Montreal Alouettes look to build off their impressive Week 2 victory over the defending Grey Cup champions when they travel to Winnipeg to face the Blue Bombers on Friday. Rookie quarterback Rakeem Cato made it look easy in his CFL debut, throwing for 241 yards and three touchdowns as the Alouettes stunned the Calgary Stampeders 29-11.

            Montreal has won four consecutive games against West Division opponents - playoffs included - dating back to last season, but has dropped four straight meetings to the Blue Bombers. Winnipeg hopes to recover mentally and physically from a 52-26 defeat to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The Blue Bombers lost Drew Willy in the first quarter after he took a vicious hit to the head and lay motionless for several moments before wobbling off the field, but the 28-year-old quarterback is ready to go after returning to practice Monday. "I feel good and I was glad to be out there competing with my teammates," Willy told reporters. "I'm looking forward to looking at the practice film and keep working this week."

            TV:
            7 p.m. ET, TSN, RDS

            LINE HISTORY:
            Most books opened the Blue Bombers at -3 and have yet to move. The total climbed from 52.5 to 53.

            INJURY REPORT:
            Alouettes - LB Bear Woods (Ques-Shoulder), OL Philip Blake (Ques-Hand), DB Chris Ackie (Ques-Hamstring) Blue Bombers - QB Drew Willy (Prob-Head), DB Maurive Leggett (Ques-Upper Body), DL Keshawn Fraser (Ques-Toe)

            ABOUT THE ALOUETTES (1-1 SU, 1-1 ATS, 0-2 O/U):
            Cato finished 20-of-25 and completed his first five passes as he led Montreal on a nine-play, 95-yard touchdown drive on its opening possession. "I'm proud of the way I played," Cato told reporters. "I had fun, played fast and took advantage of what the defence was giving me." Tyrell Sutton helped Cato out by rushing for 134 yards on 25 carries and Nik Lewis came back to haunt his old team by catching three passes for 65 yards and a touchdown.

            ABOUT THE BLUE BOMBERS (1-1 SU, 1-1 ATS, 2-0 O/U):
            Willy was 3-of-6 for 48 yards and one interception before being knocked out of the game and his replacement Brian Brohm fared no better, going 16-of-28 with two interceptions returned for touchdowns against the Tiger-Cats. Running back Paris Cotton is off to a fast start as he's rushed for 154 yards and a touchdown to go along with seven receptions for 81 yards and a score in two games. Winnipeg's defence has given up 39 points per game and has conceded a league-worst 477 yards per contest.

            TRENDS:


            *Alouettes are 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games in July.
            *Blue Bombers are 0-3-2 ATS in their last 5 home games.
            *Under is 11-2 in Alouettes last 13 road games.
            *Over is 4-1 in Blue Bombers last 5 games overall.

            CONSENSUS:
            50.2 percent of users are being the Als with 54.9 percent on the under.



            Saskatchewan Roughriders at BC Lions (-3, 49)

            The BC Lions host the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Friday in a battle of winless teams. The Lions had high expectations heading into their season opener, but the Jeff Tedford era began with a thud following a 27-16 loss to the Ottawa Redblacks.

            BC quarterback Travis Lulay threw his first touchdown pass since 2013 after battling shoulder injuries for the past two years and hopes to stay healthy as the Lions try to avoid their second consecutive 0-2 start. The Roughriders look to bounce back from a disheartening 42-40 double-overtime loss to the Toronto Argonauts. Saskatchewan let a seven-point lead slip away in the final minute of regulation before falling in the second overtime and has lost its first two contests by a combined six points. "When you lose them tight that means you are really close," Roughriders head coach Corey Chamblin told reporters. "As the guys continue to grow, we won't be losing them by two or three."

            TV:
            10 p.m. ET, TSN

            LINE HISTORY:
            The spread climbed half-a-point from Lions -3.5 to -3. The total has climbed from 47.5 to 49.

            INJURY REPORT:
            Roughriders - LB Shea Ery (Out-Neck), WR Chaz Schilens (Out-Suspension) Lions - DB Staven Clarke (Ques-Undisclosed), G Cody Husband (Ques-Undisclosed)

            ABOUT THE ROUGHRIDERS (0-2 SU, 0-2 ATS, 2-0 O/U):
            Kevin Glenn, who started 17 games for the Lions last season, finished with 477 yards and two touchdowns, but threw an interception that was returned 100 yards for a score in the fourth quarter. Ryan Smith was named one of the CFL top performers of the week after he caught eight passes for 174 yards and a touchdown and Jerome Messam accumulated 156 total yards as Saskatchewan's offence finished with 579 yards. Former BC kicker Paul McCallum, who was picked up by Saskatchewan last week, kicked field goals of 9, 22, 30 and 49 yards.

            ABOUT THE LIONS (0-1 SU, 0-1 ATS, 0-1 O/U):
            Lulay's surgically repaired shoulder held up nicely as he went 18-of-32 for 254 yards and a touchdown while former Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Austin Collie caught five passes for 65 yards and a score on his CFL debut. Defensive back Ryan Phillips injured his hamstring while trying to make an interception in the fourth quarter and will likely be out for the foreseeable future. "It probably was very severe," Tedford told reporters. "If you just get a tweak in your hamstring, usually you're just walking off the field."

            TRENDS:


            *Roughriders are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 meetings in BC.
            *Lions are 8-3-1 ATS vs. a team with a losing record.
            *Over is 5-2 in Roughriders last 7 games following a S.U. loss.
            *Under is 20-6 in the last 26 meetings in BC.

            CONSENSUS:
            55.9 percent of the public is on the Lion with 55 percent on the over.

              Als struggling to cash bets versus Bombers

              The Montreal Alouettes have gone 0-4 against the spread in their previous four meetings with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers heading into their matchup Friday evening.

              The Als' futility versus the Bombers includes both matchups last season and the final pair of three meetings during the 2013 regular season.

              Montreal (1-1 straight up, 1-1 ATS) are presently 3-point road underdogs in Winnipeg (1-1 SU, 1-1 ATS).


              Eskimos finally record an ATS win for faves

              Thanks to a 46-17 victory over the Ottawa RedBlacks as 6-point home favorites, the Edmonton Eskimos become the first favorite to cash this CFL season.

              Underdogs had gone 7-0 against the spread (one matchup closed as a Pick) in the first two weeks of the season, making for some interesting betting trends north of the border.

              Ottawa was responsible for two of those wins for the dogs as the second-year franchise won both of their games straight up before being demolished by the Eskimos.

              There are a pair of games on the CFL docket on Friday as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers host the Montreal Alouettes as 3-point home favorites and the Saskatchewan Rough Riders visit the BC Lions as 3-point road dogs.

                Roughriders on miserable drought at betting window

                The Saskatchewan Roughriders are just 1-10 against the spread in their last 11 football games overall heading into Friday night's date with the B.C. Lions.

                Saskatchewan is 0-2 ATS after their first two games this season after going 1-8 (including the postseason) to close out the 2014 season.

                The Green and White are presently 3-point road dogs at the Lions for the second of Friday's CFL doubleheader.

                  Game of the Day: Argonauts at Stampeders
                  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                  Toronto Argonauts at Calgary Stampeders (-7, 51.5)

                  Bo Levi Mitchell looks to atone for a sluggish start to the new season as the reigning Grey Cup Most Valuable Player guides the Calgary Stampeders against the visiting Toronto Argonauts on Monday night. The second-year quarterback was held in check in last week's 29-11 loss to Montreal, going 19-of-31 for 244 yards with no touchdowns.

                  "He made a lot of good plays. Maybe not as accurate as he's been in the past," Calgary offensive coordinator Dave Dickenson said. "But I still felt confident in what he was doing." Trevor Harris should feel extremely confident after receiving his second straight CFL Top Performer of the Week honour, going 30-of-38 for 267 yards and four touchdowns in Toronto's 42-40 overtime win over Saskatchewan on Sunday. Harris, who has 614 passing yards and a league-best seven scores in 2015, has thrown for nine touchdowns in his three CFL starts.

                  LINE HISTORY:
                  Books opened the Stamps as 6-point home faves, but that has moved to -7. The total has remained at 51.5.

                  INJURY REPORT:
                  Argos - OL Branndon Braxton (Questionable, suspension). SB Andre Durie (Out indefinitely, knee). Stampeders - LB Juwan Simpson (Probable, leg), WR Jeff Fuller (Probable, knee), WR Kamar Jordan (Questionable, undisclosed), OL Karl Lavoie (Questionable, undisclosed).

                  ABOUT THE ARGONAUTS (2-0 SU, 2-0 ATS, 1-1 O/U):
                  Toronto's fine start in the standings has been tempered by the significant losses of slotback Andre Durie and safety Jermaine Gabriel, with the former likely out for the season with a torn ACL and the latter sidelined for a month with a groin injury. Anthony Coombs is expected to play a larger role in the backfield in place of Toronto native Durie, who reeled in seven passes for 63 yards in the season-opening victory over Edmonton. "He's been so snake-bit," coach Scott Milanovich said of the 33-year-old Durie. "Such a great player, there's nobody really like him in the CFL."

                  ABOUT THE STAMPEDERS (1-1 SU, 0-2 ATS, 0-2 O/U):
                  All-Star middle linebacker Juwan Simpson and wideout Jeff Fuller expect to return to the field after sitting out Calgary's setback against the Alouettes. Simpson registered three tackles in the 24-23 season-opening victory over Hamilton before being felled by a leg injury, while Fuller tweaked his knee after making nine catches for 148 yards en route to being named a CFL Top Performer. Off the field, the Stampeders provided depth to their defensive line when they selected Brandon Tett in Tuesday's Supplemental Draft.

                  TRENDS:

                  * Argonauts are 4-0 ATS in their last four meetings in Calgary.
                  * Under is 6-2 in the last eight meetings in Calgary.
                  * Argonauts are 0-4 ATS in their last four games in Week 3.
                  * Under is 5-2 in Stampeders last seven games in Week 3.

                  CONSENSUS:
                  Fifty-two percent of users are backing the Stampeders.

                    Argonauts look to stay hot ATS in Calgary

                    Week 3 of the CFL schedule concludes Monday night in Alberta as the Toronto Argonauts and Calgary Stampeders square off and Argonauts backers will surely look for yet another successful performance at the betting window.

                    The Argos are 4-0 against the spread in their last four meetings with the Stamps in Alberta, including covering as 13-point dogs in a 40-33 loss last season. Furthermore, Toronto is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings overall with their West Division opponent.

                    Toronto is one of two franchises (Hamilton Tiger-Cats) to have unblemished 2-0 ATS records in the early stages of the season.

                    Books opened the Argos as 6-point pups, and that spread has since moved to +7 as of Sunday.
