Montreal Alouettes at Winnipeg Blue Bombers I thought Montreal improved in their 16-11 loss in Saskatchewan last week. Anthony Miller Bears Jersey . On offence, the first half performance by Alex Brink was good as he threw for 118 yards on 12-17 passing. The second half was not so good, only completing seven passes for 69 yards. You can definitely see the influence of Jeff Garcia on Brink. There is more of a flow where the pass drop of Brink matched the pass routes of the receivers. By the end of the first half, 33 plays were run for Montreal while 22 were run for Saskatchewan. The second half is still a concern. For Winnipeg, run defence is a concern. They have allowed 350 yards over the past two games which is far too much. With nine days in between games Im sure they will be a much more fundamentally sound team come Friday night. Winnipeg over Montreal. Toronto Argonauts at Edmonton Eskimos I would be very surprised if Edmonton did not play with a much higher perfection in terms of penalty avoidance come Saturday afternoon. The game in Ottawa was not a good one last week as Edmonton did everything they could to give it away. They will respond. For Toronto one of the key issues is the schedule. They dont have a home game until Oct. 4 and their next games are at Edmonton, at Hamilton, bye week, at Calgary, at BC, bye week and then finally home to Edmonton. There is hope as last year the Argos went through a similar set of four games in a row on the road and won all four. But as expressed, Edmonton will respond. Edmonton over Toronto. Calgary Stampeders at Ottawa Redblacks Calgary is on a two-game road trip and started out well with a 30-20 win over Hamilton. I thought the turning point was a 21-yard pass completion by Bo Levi Mitchell on a 2nd and 20 with four minutes to go. It was an excellent pressure play. For Ottawa, they need a home touchdown as it has been over 40 possessions on offence since their last one. It will be tough competition for Henry Burris as Calgary has allowed the fewest points this season with 114. Calgary over Ottawa. Saskatchewan Roughriders at B.C. Lions Best game of Week 9. BC looked good on defence in their 33-17 win in Toronto shutting down the Argos running game and keeping Ricky Ray to about 200 yards passing. BC looked good on special teams too with Tim Browns impact setting up points. BC looked sharp on offence as Stefan Logan had 145 yards rushing and another 59 receiving. For the Riders, a big positive was they only had one touchdown allowed last week on Duron Carters 123 yard missed field goal return. But I wonder if BC is not on a bit of a roll and will keep on rolling. Travis Lulay or Kevin Glen will work its self out soon. BC over Saskatchewan in the best game of Week 9. Chase Daniel Bears Jersey . They kicked off the still-going trend of host cities winning the Grey Cup and sent Hall of Fame head coach Wally Buono to the front office a champion.

Pistorius denied the allegation that he said to the close friend of the girlfriend he killed: "How can you sleep at night?" The accusation by Kim Myers provided a bizarre twist during the trial of the world-famous double-amputee Olympian, who is facing 25 years to life in prison if convicted of premeditated murder for shooting dead Steenkamp, a 29-year-old model, at his home last year.TORONTO - A little bit of over-confidence has crept into the Toronto Raptors game, says James Johnson.And so after a 110-89 trouncing at the hands of the red-hot Atlanta Hawks on Friday, a night that served as a gauge of how far Toronto still has to go, the Raptors gathered in the locker-room for a players-only meeting.We had a long talk, Johnson said. Its going to stay internal, but we just got a little over-confident and we started taking to heart that were a good team and we havent accomplished nothing yet.Our detail, our mental aspect of the game, we cant go out there and think that were just going to out-athletic anybody, or out-shoot anybody anymore, Johnson continued. People are scouting us and theyre scouting us pretty well, weve just got to change some things up and get back to where we were.DeMar DeRozan scored 24 points to top Toronto (26-13) in his second game back from a 21-game injury layover, but got little help from his team. Johnson scored 17 points off the bench, while Kyle Lowry finished with 11.The Hawks starters outscored the Raptors by a whopping 75-53 margin.Whatever wall weve hit, weve hit it and weve got to bust through it, weve got to get a sledgehammer and bust through it, all of us together, coach Dwane Casey said, through a hoarse voice. Al Horford scored 22 points to lead the Hawks (32-8), who stretched their league-high winning streak to 11 games. I think we have a winning group, Lowry said, about the teams frustration. We have a bunch of guys that want to win. The frustration level is there. I dont think were pointing fingers. Were just trying to figure out how to get back to our winning ways.When asked about the players meeting, Lowry wouldnt elaborate.The Raptors had beaten Atlanta twice previously this season, 109-102 in their season-opener, and 126-115 in Atlanta on Nov. 26.But those wins came when the Raptors were on their early-season roll, and Atlanta hadnt yet hit theirs. The Hawks are playing at an entirely different level now, trouncing the Raptors with clinical precision Friday, and with their strength at every position.A game like that, that was not us, Casey said. Its no one person. Were still in that rut and the only way were going to get out of it is to work our way out of it.Theres no pointing fingers, theres no one person in that rooms fault. If its anybodys fault, put it on me, but, its all of us in it together and that team right there (Atlanta) is a well-oiled machine.The Raptors began the night trailing the East-leading Hawks by four-and-a-half games. They knew they were in for a rough night against the leagues hottestt team, which had also clobbered Washington — one of the Easts top teams — last week. Allen Robinson Jersey. . They werent wrong as they trailed almost from the opening whistle, fell behind by as many as 24 points in the third quarter, and went into the fourth down 85-68.A basket by Lowry on Torontos first possession cut the difference to 15 points. But the Hawks quickly snuffed out any hopes of a Raptors comeback, taking a 26-point lead on a bucket by Paul Millsap with 5:45 to play in front of a disgruntled Air Canada Centre crowd of 19,800 that included Toronto FCs newest acquisition Jozy Altidore and Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista.The ugliness continued and by the time Greivis Vasquez drained a three with 1:26 to go to cut Torontos deficit to 19 points, many fans had already left the building.We just hit one of them tough weeks, tough week-and-half, DeRozan said. Weve just got to bounce back. You cant play a perfect season. Its good that were having it now so we can regroup and get back on track.It was another rough night for Terrence Ross, who had five points on just 1-for-8 shooting. Jonas Valanciunas had just four points to go with six boards.Casey had talked pre-game about the importance of protecting the ball, but the message seemingly went unheard by his players, who had already coughed up the ball 14 times before halftime. They would give up 24 points on 19 giveaways overall.The Raptors wore their purple jerseys as part of their 20th anniversary celebrations, and honoured former Raptor Muggsy Bogues with a video tribute during a timeout. Bogues, who travels the world doing promotional work for the NBA, said the Raptors are situated well in the wide-open Eastern Conference.The Raptors have a really good opportunity to come out of the East if they continue to keep grinding, continue to keep getting better, on both ends of the floor, Bogues said. What theyve got now, theyve proven they can beat anybody they play against, its just a matter of going out there and doing it.The Raptors got off to a messy start, shooting just 32 per cent in the opening quarter. But they managed to keep the deficit in single digits and trailed 24-19 heading into the second.The Hawks stretched their lead to 11 points before the Raptors second unit cut the lead to five. But Atlanta ended the first half with an 11-2 run to put the Hawks up 52-38.DeRozan had 13 points in the third quarter, but it wasnt enough to carry a Raptors squad that couldnt pull to within closer than 14 points in the frame.The Raptors end their six-game homestand on Sunday when they host the New Orleans Pelicans.
