At the top of this week’s Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast, the discussion naturally begins with a wrap of week 7 games – while meandering through some grousing about what was seemingly a poor fantasy week for everyone. (Jake Maier the top QB? A touchdown from rookie FB Clint Ratkovich? Dude.)

Light on fantasy football points the slate of games may have been, but some fascinating points of discussion emerged for co-hosts Joe Pritchard and Os Davis to kick around. Questions like: Are the Calgary Stampeders (and Maier) this good? Are the Saskatchewan Roughriders this bad? Why are the Edmonton Elks like this? (Joe swears it’s not McLeod Bethel-Thompson…)

The RWB goes on to offer CFL Pick ‘Em picks and predictions on another interesting quartet of games next week: Saskatchewan at the likely Cody Fajardo-less Montreal Alouettes; the underdog (?) Stamps at the Ottawa RedBlacks; those frustrating Winnipeg Blue Bombers at the Toronto Argonauts; and (hoo boy) the one-win Hamilton Tiger-Cats coming to Edmonton.
