As the dust settles on a historic East division sweep in week 8, the Rouge White & Blue CFL Podcast remarks on this year’s crop of backup quarterbacks; marvels at the Montreal Alouettes’ defense and the Ottawa Redblacks in general; and remains baffled by the unbettable Calgary Stampeders.

RWB co-hosts Joe Pritchard and Os Davis answer questions like: Are the Toronto Argonauts really a third-place team? Are the Saskatchewan Roughriders essentially a .500 team? Why do these Winnipeg Blue Bombers continually succumb to mistakes this season? How seriously should we take these Hamilton Tiger-Cats?

And, most scintillatingly, could we finally get an East team crossing over…? Hamilton at Saskatchewan in the West semi-finals, anyone…?

All this musing plus picks and predictions for week 9’s games.
