Let's hope the Argos can come through with a win this time. The Stamps losing helps the Bombers.

"Fatty" has been a major disappointment after early success in Calgary. Never amount to much in Ottawa or Toronto and whomever else was on his team list. I don't like the Argos chances upon hearing this news. Might have to change my pick for this week.

Ottawa is us no favours. Can OL' Wolfie Eyes and is band of mary sailors?

Loved to see Dickie lose his crap yet again.

Roster notes; Calgary Stampeders, August 9 at Toronto

Add to roster;

OL Kyle Saxelid
DB Nick Statz

Remove from roster;

To PR; FB Lucas Robertson, DB Kaelyn St. Cyr

ROSTER ANALYSIS:  Pretty stable roster for the Stampeders.  Looking forward to seeing backup OL Kyle Saxelid make his Stamps debut.  Big takeaway is the fact there are no changes in the running back or receiver spots.  Obviously, Logan, Hyman and Echols impressed on Sunday.

Stamps dress single running back, no fullbacks for rematch with Argos
By 3Down Staff -August 8, 2024

The Calgary Stampeders will have no insurance in the backfield for their rematch with the Toronto Argonauts on Friday.

For the second straight week, the team is expected to dress Peyton Logan as the only running back on the roster, leaving them vulnerable in the event of injury. However, this week fullback Lucas Robertson has been demoted to the practice squad as well, meaning there will not be a single additional backfield player available for insurance.

Should Logan, who has rushed for 121 yards on 18 carries this year, go down, the Stampeders would be expected to turn to Canadian receiver Jalen Philpot. The former Calgary Dino has seen occasional usage out of the backfield and carried 20 times for 173 yards in 22 career CFL games.

Replacing Robertson on jumbo packages will be seventh offensive lineman Kyle Saxelid, who is dressing for the first time this year. In other roster moves, the team has swapped Canadian defensive back Nick Statz in, sending his rookie counterpart Kaylyn St-Cyr to the practice roster.

Canadian defensive back and 2024 first-round pick Ben Labrosse will be a healthy scratch this week after recovering from an ankle issue. He will join a trio of Americans in defensive tackle Charles Wiley, offensive tackle Josh Coker, and receiver Tre Odoms-Dukes as available players on the one-game injured list.

Argos to start QB Nick Arbuckle for rematch with Stamps, Cameron Dukes a game-time decision
By 3Down Staff -August 8, 2024

The Toronto Argonauts appear to have made a switch at the quarterback position for Friday's rematch with the Calgary Stampeders.

Nick Arbuckle has been listed as the starter on the team's official depth chart, making his first start of the year despite coming off the bench in relief on several occasions. He has completed 24-of-42 passes this season for 240 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.

Cameron Dukes, who has started the prior eight games this season for the Argos, is listed as a game-time decision with a leg injury. The second-year pivot has completed 137-of-190 passes for 1,398 yards, seven touchdowns, and six interceptions, while rushing for 294 yards and three majors.

Whoever is at quarterback will be without right guard Gregor MacKellar (toe) after he was placed on the six-game injured list. Rookie Anthony Vandal, a 2023 eighth-round pick, will make his first career start as a replacement with veteran Dylan Giffen dressing for depth. Backup Canadian running back Daniel Adeboboye (groin) will be a game-time decision.

Starting Canadian weakside linebacker Fraser Sopik (shoulder) will also be a game-time decision, with American backup Isaac Darkangelo coming onto the roster as insurance. Canadian defensive back Tunde Adeleke will also make his Argonauts debut, replacing American Mark Milton.

Is Arbuckle better than Dukes? Another Stamp win would really hurt the Bombers.

Done.  Thanks for the heads up!

The Argos beat us but they've lost to the Riders and the Stamps. That needs to change.

Anyone watching?  I'm a bit behind.  All I can say is, GO TOR!!!  The less points that go to west teams, the better
