Now for the weekly predictions ...
TORONTO AT OTTAWA (FRIDAY, 5:30 P.M.)
Taman: The Ottawa Redblacks could dress Rob Vanstone at quarterback this week and still win. Redblacks by nine.
Vanstone: I threw as many touchdown passes as the Roughriders during October. Toronto Argonauts by three.
WINNIPEG AT EDMONTON (SATURDAY, 2 P.M.)
Taman: Edmonton Eskimos win! Last time you’ll see that this year. Eskimos by seven.
Vanstone: Eskimos are out of the playoffs. This will be a mail-in. Bombers by 12.
MONTREAL AT HAMILTON (SATURDAY, 5 P.M.)
Taman: The Hamilton Tiger-cats will show some signs of progress after a clunker last week. TigerCats by eight.
Vanstone: Same as Ottawa/toronto. No reason for the TigerCats, who will finish second in the East Division and are banged up, to care. Montreal Alouettes by three.
CALGARY AT B.C. (SATURDAY, 8 P.M.)
Taman: The fans get a free Wally Buono bobblehead! Rider fans want Wally to win! Sorry. Stampeders by three.
Vanstone: Calgary is playing for first place. The Lions already know their playoff destination (Hamilton). Stampeders by eight. Records after Week 20:
Taman 50-27 (3-1 last week); Vanstone 52-25 (3-1).
